John Holliger of White Oak Precision is one of the country's premier AR smiths and a competitior (of national fame) himself. His website is:

White Oak Precision - Service Rifle Uppers

He also does a superb job of re-barreling as well as tuning RRA triggers, pining rear sights etc.. and, he's a nice guy to talk to.

PS

Carl Bernosky won last year's NRA High Power rifle championship (2384 out of 2400) with a WOA match upper. That's a pretty good commercial in my book.

I'd have to go with recommending White Oak Prec. here, have 1 of his service rifle RR AR's with a 1-7 Krieger, sight job,float tube & service rifle match trigger, if I could only convince HER, we would have 2 of his rifles in our safe.

Get a WOA with the WIlson bbl. I guarantee you that it will outshoot YOU and the rest of us! No need to spend the big bucks on the Krieger, PacNor, etc.

Yeah, might be a few bucks more than a RRA, but you will soon discover its worth it. Oh, and get the pinned rear sight while you are at it.

Mudcat, how big an improvement does a pinned rear sight get you?

I'd be interested in this also, and the cost. I likely missed it, but didn't see it on the web site.

WOP's sights. he changed ours to 1/4" click, & they are VERY repeatable in settings. Write down your come up clicks for each range & windage too, with the White Oak sights, next time you need to shoot @ that range,with that load, it will work. Also make note of time of day, weather, sun, wind, mirage, it will help you.
