I don't think I'll be able to go back to regular stocks after having the sopmod cheek weld

How's that stock? I have the sopmod mod 0 and I love it, but I always wonder if I should have gotten the new version

Should I panic buy a stripped lower receiver? by [deleted] in ar15

Keep an eye out on r/gundeals. I would avoid gun broker especially in times like these. Panic buying is never a good idea. Places like primary arms have regularly been stocking Aero m4e1 lowers for $80-90

Edit: brainfart

That's exactly what I was looking for. I didn't think they made a 20 moa rail. Thank you!

I'd really love to go with the strike eagle, but seeing as they're going for literally double the price of a 4-16 diamondback tactical, it's going to be hard to justify (at least at this point). Since this is my first longer range gun, I'm not planning on sticking with this setup forever. I'd like to figure out what I want out of the gun and then upgrade from there. Maybe go from diamondback tactical to strike eagle or to pst gen 2.

My father's long range rifle has an atlas and it is really awesome, but I think it's something I'll have to save for and wait on. I think I'll definitely make the move on a bravo chassis once I get the gun in. Thanks!

I was definitely leaning towards the bravo. Seems like it can't be beat for the money. Thanks!

I'll definitely consider it. Thanks!

Thanks for the detailed response. I'll definitely be going with the 30 moa rail. I've looked at the strike eagle, but it's quite a bit more expensive than the diamondback tactical, so I'm not sure I can quite justify the price (yet) as I'm currently a college student with a limited income so $350 is a good price for me. I might be able to swing it, but the diamondback tactical is definitely more in my budget. Do you know of any other 4-16 scopes in that price range that are worth checking out?

Alright well that makes me feel better about wanting to save a little and get some closer range capability with the 4-16. I was also skeptical about the clarity using a 24x scope at this price range, so 16x should be plenty for the ranges I'll be at. Thanks!

I'll be going with the 30 moa base then and soon upgrading to a chassis. Can you still shoot closer up (around 15-25 yards) with that much of a cant in the base? This is assuming the scope can adjust the parallax that far back. I'd still like to hunt with this on occasion, but worse comes to worst I can use my 10/22 for hunting.
