Hi All

I’m new to this type of firearm so please forgive my lack of knowledge,

I’m after a recommendation on what platform to go with and as I live in Australia i am limited in what I can get access to. Does anyone have any recommendations on the following models my LGS can provide (This is not going to be used at a range it will be used on properties for feral animal control)

Daniel Defence V5 LW
Colt LE6920 (Socom Model)
Ruger SR556C

Thanks

All very good rifles. You would be happy with any of them..

The DD and Colt use very common parts... the Ruger only to a certain extent.

That alone ( IMHO ) would exclude the Ruger.... I know the Ruger is a fine rifle... but the DD and Colt parts are cheap and easy to get.

If you are varmint shooting.... I would get the free-floated DD.

Go with the DD. Comes free floated. Colt a close second.

Thanks for the advice, i was leaning towards the DD for the free floated barrel as getting the parts over here to install one on the colt is looking impossible.

Thanks again
