easiest option https://www.bearcreekarsenal.com/bc...e-length-gas-system-1-16-twist-w-15-mlok

a complete upper

the only thing different between an 5.56 upper is that the barrel is chambered 350 legend and the muzzle thread will be 5/8-24 and not 1/2-28 thread

and yes a magazine swap , but the 350 legend uses the exact same head as the 223 so the bolt can remain the same.

6.5 gendel , 224 valkarie , 450 bush master all also required a different bolt

So Winchester re-invented the 110 year old .351 Winchester cartridge. All the hype about "new" cartridge. Yawn...........

---- but I'm not wanting to spend the cost of a new rifle. I may as well buy another gun. (The one you linked is not available and the only complete uppers I have found are in the $400+ range.) A barrel and mag is like $120.00

the down side of removing your barrel from the 5.56/223 is if your planning to go back and forth. time and re sight in has a cost also.

a 60 dollar upper , 85 dollar barrel 25 dollars for a gas block and gas tube , 60 dollar hand guard with barrel nut

but if you had a donor upper that had a shot out 223 barrel you or if they didn't like they way it was shooting and you could get it cheap , yes just a barrel and mag.

but I don't think it is that realistic to swap barrels back and forth for each hunting season but I suppose you could

They were in stock yesterday...and will be again. They run their complete uppers on sale a lot. I have 2 currently and they are great shooters.

I feel bad for instigating gun purchases.



I convinced myself last night I didn't need another gun. So, today I started pedaling stuff on craigslist and Facebook to fund a gun I don't need. I figure if I buy it with money I didn't have I really didn't spend anything on it. A couple days and I should have a new rifle.

I was on vacation today , mostly running errands , fixing things around the house and such but I got to hit one of the gun shops and spend some quality alone time at the range all by my self.

at the LGS they had the RUger 350 Legend ,this isn't the tore I went to but to give you a picture to look at.

https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/415007157/ruger+american+ranch+rifle+350+legend+1638%22+tb+5%2B1+26981

local price was 450

16.38 inch barrel , threaded muzzle , uses AR mags , easy to shoulder

exactly what I was envisioning a light handy little 350 bolt gun would be

your not kidding I , went to the local gun store tonight they hadn't been open 30 minutes I bet he had sold 4 guns already and piles of ammo.

I went planning to get a pound of powder and maybe a box of bullets.

well I left with a bit more than that.

a few weeks ago you couldn't have stuffed another pistol in that pistol case today there was a lot of room


I had been looking at reloading supplies last week thinking I could use some of this and some of that , looked Sunday night everything I had been looking at was now on back-order

now just everything is on back-order

local shop said they were open through Saturday then closed , not sure he will have anything left in the store come Saturday
