I'm looking to build a long distance rifle using the 6.5 G and a 20 or 24 inch AA barrel. I recently bought a new piston driven AR-15 and love it...mainly the ease of cleaning and how clean and cool the chamber and bolt remain.
I'm thinking however, for a rifle that I'd like to reach out and consistently hit its target very accurately over long distances, I should probably go with DI. My concern with running a piston driven system would be the reason some snipers still prefer a bolt action system...no moving parts to throw off the shot. My issue is, I'm not certain whether or not the extra movement would even be perceptible or enough to throw off a shot.
What do you all think?
Thanks,
