I am going to be getting into the thermal game soon and would like a AR platform rifle to run it on. I currently use a .22 Creed bolt action rifle for my day hunting. I love it but have been told to run an AR platform because the thermals such as the Pulsar Trails(I am hoping to get into a TrailLRF 2) mount on them much nicer. That being said, I am leaning towards a .224V, and the Savage MSR looks appealing. Do they shoot well? Do they function well suppressed? I am also considering building a lighter weight complete rifle or just an upper with a carbon fiber barrel if the Savage has poor reviews. If the Savage MSR's can shoot/cycle worth a crap I would start with one.
Also what are some favorite projectiles in the .224V? The 80gr Bergers and 75gr ELD-m's out of the 22Creed are kind of destructive on the fur LOL.
Thanks!
