Like an ax with a hard wood head and a steel handle, some things are very different. It doesn't always make them better however.
I don't categorically disagree with any of that, and an AR with a really good trigger and barrel can be built for less than any bullpup of which I am aware, but I already have those.

When it gets cold and I shoot less, my imagination turns from what I do (slow fire a rifle from three positions at paper) to what might be neat. A rifle that goes around corners like a pistol, but shoots 5.56 from a barrel long enough to give great velocity is neat.

Yes, the size that makes it neat is also what worries me.

My biathlon days are behind me, but I can see how it would be worth training for a more tidy package doing what you do. I am likely to train less than you have, and I am not beyond doing something stupid.

Is muzzle blast felt by the shooter a greater issue for you?
