1-8 Twist 18" Barrel I started with Nosler 62gr Varmigedons for Predator Hunting but very tight chamber and too much pressure was causing swiping across the headstamp so I started using 55gr reloads no more swiping this Caliber out performs the 223 in Speed, Range and Accuracy but if you don't reload it can get expensive to shoot at least until other manufacturers start making it.

I hit the range today,  Its been a while since I've been to range 14.  I picked up a 4x12 vortex scope a couple of months ago and managed to get some good results.

 

  

Not bad for 10 yards.

I lolled!

Next week 20 yards

Last week I thought to myself, I have too many black rifles. So I decided to take a few cans of rust-oleum and see what kind of damage I can do to may stag.

Well, here is the end result:

I have two Eotechs.... I loved my Aimpoints.. and was always an Aimpoint fanboy.. but the dot looks like molten lava (I guess my eyes are screwed up).. I don't have that issue with Eotech.. so for me.. Eotech works a million times better..

I have 2 eotechs and I have not had any issues with either. I saw no need to return them.

That looks awesome @vladtepes

@Pew Pew Plates Is that a carbon fiber handguard ? What upper and lower is that ?

Yep, it's a 15" Lancer handguard.  I love it!  It's the octagonal LCH5 reduced weight one.  The flat bottom is more stable shooting from a barricade.  The upper/lower is the 2A armament balios lite set.  The whole rifle unloaded with optic and empty magazine is 7.75 pounds, not bad for a 18" rifle set up.

I didn't like the Hera Arms fixed stock too much so I decided to change it. Went and got a  Magpul MOE SL pistol grip and Stock. Removed the Hera buttstock and replaced it with the Magpul stuff. Then pinned the stock myself. Also added a Magpul sling. Tomorrow I will be getting a UTG pro Quad Rail to replace the Current round rail.

@TrentonShooter, I see you went with the Warthog from Sharps Bros.  I did too for my wife's build.

Yes I wanted to go with the Jack from Sharps Bros but it wasn't available at that moment so went with the Warthog. The lower parts are almost all Spikes Tactical, except the buffer tube. Then the BCG and the muzzle brake are Spikes also

Saw this at Cabela's for $3500

@Shawnmoore81, I got my "Red Wings" when I was drunk in Mexico.  

I finally picked up a 20" upper, I've been wanting one for a couple of years.

Its a PSA/FN   20' CHF barrel.

Very nice.  

Like it.

M16A1 clone.  100% NJ compliant. 

Genuine USGI parts used wherever possible.

Very nice, nostalgic.

Where did you get the A1 Comp? I can't find one anywhere...

It's not an A1 comp.  BCM GF Mod-0 bought and installed at HGW.  I was set to have a Carlson's Mini Comp installed but saw Tom had the mod-0  on the shelf.  Tom has a NJSP letter saying the Mod-0 is legal.  Much better look than the Carlson's.

Ah, ok. I have an A2 type Comp on the A1 I just built on a Nodak Retro A1 lower and upper receiver set.

I looked everywhere for a comp that had the slots all around like the A1 type but couldn't find one and settled on the A2.
