Stormlake makes conversion barrels for the XDS. I have a range buddy that has converted his .40 to 9mm and uses that exclusively.  He couldn't get any decent money for his .40 and wanted to get a 9 to shoot cheaper ammo. The conversion was a cheaper alternative.


My primary AR rifle is a 6.8SPC. I got a aoudad sheep out in TX at just under 500 yards last year with it. Here in north GA it is unusual to get a shot more than 100 yards. I am shooting a 115gr Spitzer that has a very flat trajectory. It is currently over-scoped with a 8.5-25x50 Leupold that I pulled off my AR-10 when I sold it a few years back. I am shooting an AR-6.8 with a scope that is worth almost 4 times what I have in the rifle.

The Leupold would be a good candidate for a .338 but it is too much trouble trying to find a 1000 yard or more range that is less than a 2 hour drive.
