    7mm WSM. There for a while midway had it at $21/50pcs. It is up to $30 now I believe.

    We are teaming up with Bailey Signature Firearms to introduce a line of Integrally suppressed AR-15 uppers with a total barrel + suppressor length of 16". They will be available in .50 Hushpuppy, .300 Blackout and maybe a couple others. They are going to come standard with a 15" rail, so there will only be 1" of suppressor exposed.

    We are going to get together this week and work on them if possible. Unfortunately, I dont have a price or production date, as you can never tell what you will run into when making them.
    They will be up and rolling before june and price will be reasonable.

    Hm, I'd be guessing somewhere around $2000 at least, depending on parts, but maybe higher. But I'm a supressor noob and all. I could easily see it getting that high, even higher.

    Noo not that high. We do not allow ourselves to make over a certain percentage of profit. We feel like if we go over a certain pointe, it becomes swindling, not a friendly gun sale.

    Then I anxiously await to see what you offer. Parts alone can push the price to what I listed easily.

    Right now we are thinking 1650 for an integrally suppressed upper with high quality parts, a Samson Mfg 15" free float rail, which will leave just under 1" of the suppressor exposed, alowing you to take down the can for cleaning, while never letting the barrel length drop below 16.1".
    I know that isnt much below $2k, but its about the best we will be able to do for an integral, without using low quality parts.

    We are doing an integrally suppresed side charge upper in .300 BLK, which also features the 15" samson rail for $1489. This also includes a chrome plated bolt carrier group and an adjustable gas system that will allow you to shut the gas all the way off and use it as a straight pull rifle.

    We will probably also offer one in .450Bushmaster/.45NUT.

    You make a good point sir! One thing about AR parts is that you dont always get what you pay for. Alot of AR parts are made in the same factory as a lower cost part, it then gets the brand that all the gun rags promote etched on it and all of the sudden they bump the price up alot!
    Then there are the guys that build ar's from milsec parts, I wont mention names out of proffessional courtesy, then they bump the price up and tell everyone they are using custom this, custome that. It irks me to no end gentlemen.
    As long as the Good Lord provides for our families, we will do our best to keep our prices inline with the real life value of our products. So far, He has been going above and beyond, and for that, we are thankful!

    Hm. Me thinks it might actually be time to get the C&R and a stamp or two.

    In an AR about the biggest you can go is 600gr I would think, I could be wrong on that though, as I am just going off of a mental picture.

    The 850 is too long. By the time you get the bullet deep enough in the case to be able to chamber, you dont have enough left for the powder charge.

    The 850 will have to be in a long throated rifle.
