I'm happy with my match rifle now, I had very poor choices for 100 yard targets with me today, but with all the stuff I did to this rifle, it is far more accurate than it was before.

Today I replaced the front sight post with a thinner one (.050") and re-sighted in with the RRA NM carry handle.. I wound up not replacing the original Colt 2 stage trigger, but did some work on it to make it much better, it's still a 2 stage trigger, but I consider it match ready.

I didn't want to shoot too much of my Hornaday 5.56 75gr match ammo as I'm down to about 120 rounds and waiting for the opportunity to buy more of it. It's good stuff!
