Make sure you’ve noticed 1:9 twist.

Right because most ppl really pay attention to their bullet weight and barrel twist when it comes to budget uppers.

Well, I may not be most people. Even for budget uppers I tend to try to stay with 1:7 twist because that's what all the others are, and this one would be a disqualifier for me.

So the warning may be well-intended, just so you can be consistent and are not expecting all the same ammo to perform in all the same barrels. And I'm way too lazy to work up different loads..

Guys it was just a heads up on a cheap upper to build apon. For me it's not a big deal since i have plenty of all bullet weight ammo.
Im just going to build on this to take out and plink with. Or for just going up in the woods while 4x4 i like to have something cheap to take with. Didn't mean for it to be a big 1/7 1/9 which is better argument.
This upper will be treated badly with lots of steel case ammo. When it doesn't shoot straight anymore i will use the rest for parts or put a different barrel on it.
