I recently bought a Bushmaster XM15 from a friend, to good a deal to pass up. My thought is to use it as a base for a build. The gun has less than a 100 rounds through it, it has a 26" barrel, fixed stock, and a new swift 669ma 6-18x44 scope. I gave $500.00 for it. The scope itself list for around $220.00 on planet optical. Overall a pretty decent varmint setup. But the thing is I don't varmint hunt. I was thing of using the upper and lower for a three gun build. Something along the lines of a 16" to 18" barrel, collapsible stock, with a 1x4 optic, using mid-high range components. Say for example a Faxon gunner barrel, BCM bolt, magpulled stock and pistol grip, new trigger etc.. These are just part types off the top of my head not sure of the exact components I would use. I have only shot a couple of 3 gun matches so far and need to do a lot of research before I pick exact parts. My thinking is I could then sell the removed parts. So finally to my question. Is the bushmaster upper and lower good enough to use as a basis for this kind of build? Thanks for any input.
