Free floating barrels are mean no inaccuracy from bipods/rest positions. Urg know boomsticks more good than others on internet.

AR’s hate steel case ammo in general. Don’t use it in them. G3, FAL and AK’s eat it just fine.
None of my ARs have had any real issues specifically with steel cased ammo. Certain brands like Tul, sure, but Wolf, among others, run just fine.
Which companies are recommended for AR 15 red dot sights?
Vortex, Holosun, Aimpoint, and Sig for decent to good red dots. Any of their offerings in the ~$250 price range will generally do a good job and last through some decent abuse.

No, maybe your particular AR hates steel case. Don't make a retarded blanket statement like that lest some moron like yourself actually believes you.
Steel vs Brass testing
All steel does is increase wear on the extractor and barrel by a small margin. Trying to insinuate ARs are so picky and tight toleranced that you shouldn't shoot steel case out of them is fucking dumb.
Fair enough.
I use a Sig Romeo 5. It's slim and not clunky, but isn't just an exposed glass optic.
Edit: in other news, Suzanne Collins is a "no" on Chipman.
What's your intended usages? If it's just for the range, anything everyone else suggested is fine. I personally prefer Eotech or certain Holosuns for defense because the Eotech reticle is amazing for close range engagements. Just put target in the center of the circle and Bam Bam. My dream optic is an Aimpoint CompM2 with the Eotech reticle. I know Holosun makes something similar but I want an actual Aimpoint with it.

If you would sell your soul to Jeff Bezos for $10, it’s slightly cheaper on Amazon:
Sig Sauer SOR52001 Romeo5 1x20mm Compact 2 Moa Red Dot Sight, Black
The sig Romeo sights themselves are fine I've got one on one of my rifles, the only problem I've had with it is the cheap Chinese mount sig ships them with. It would constantly come loose while shooting, I ended up using loctite to get it secure.
The comp m2 was the first optic I ever bought bc I was a boot fuck. I love it tho. Still runs fine and has a great LaRue mount.
I'm a person with Fudd'esque opinions on shooting optics. Pay once, cry once. I've only ever bought Trijicon and Aimpoint.
I have shot Sig optics they are nice as are Holosuns. I just don't want to buy Chinese made if I can.
Still have mine. I have it on a PRO mount now although the LaRue QD is awesome.
I guess since I live in a safe area it would probably be more at the range than self defense, though I bought the rifle for self defense reasons.
Is this similar to the MSR or the different?
Are Red Dots or Green Dots better?
A green dot is easier to see in bright conditions and some say they see it faster than red. The trade off is battery life (for example my red dot MRO has a 5 year battery life on brightness level 3 but the green dot version is just 1 year run time). Also some say its harder to pick up in foliage.
With the red you get better low light visibility and the longer life.
What is your view on the Hex Optics sold by Springfield Armory?
As expected. Order stayed on appeal.

Another nice thing to replace while you've got the gun apart is the bolt release. The Volquartsen part is a nice cheap little QoL upgrade - instead of fiddle-fucking around with the factory one, you just pull the bolt back slightly and release.
Next stop, SCOTUS, hopefully.
I want to say they were banking on that so it could get a SCOTUS judgement.
