    I have not owned a sig, but I have fondled a few. From what I could see, they seemed like a quality product. I have also seen them on sale in the price range of guns like bushmasters and I would definately take the sig over a bushy. That being said, my first AR was a bushy and I put thousands of rounds through it with out any trouble.

    It can be an approximation, but usually a best case scenario instead of a likely result. Distance is less forgiving, and in a non-linear way.

    Thats what I figured. I think a good goal to start with for 100 yds. will be to land three-shot groups within a 6" circle.

    Edit:

    Added a UBR with aluminum striker plate today in order to address forward weight bias. Rifle feels more balanced but the ounces are quickly starting to add up and I am not crazy about the look. May try out a SOPMOD tomorrow.

    Range report:

    Got another 250 PNC 55gr. rds. downrange and had zero issues. My groups are still tightening up. This is either due to the barrel being properly broken in, improvement of my marksmanship skills or a combination of the two.

    Just had a baby so it will be a while until I will be able to shoot between 100-300 yrds. but I will update this thread with any further developments.

    On a side note, I just completed my first Pelican case foam cut-out for the M400. I read somewhere that SCUBA divers like coating the foam with Plasti-Dip as it guards against moisture and foam damage from equipment going in and out all the time. I gotta say that I love how the PD changes the feel and handling characteristics of the foam. Time will tell if this coating holds up.

    Seriously considering a SIG as the next addition.

    Also, extremely interested in your results with the Plasti-Dip.

    I placed some thoughts on the PD below. As for the rifle, it continues to perform flawlessly!

    Thanks! I'm surprised so many people understand what it means.

    The Plastidip is performing above my expectations. I still want to get through 4 seasons before officially giving it the thumbs up but for the amount of use the case has seen thus far, I am very pleased.

    For a waterproof test, I took the pistol liner out and placed several drops of water on it. It has been sitting on the kitchen counter for a couple of hours with no sign of water making it into the foam. I even pressed the foam down every 30 minutes and still no moisture is making it's way into the foam.

    This isn't the greatest picture but basically the water puddle has spread out after having been pressed on multiple times in my attempt to stress the foam.
