New upper for one of our members!

[Mason_Jarr]

Thanks ldhunter, but its safe and secure here where I'm at. Those guys up in Iraq and Afghanistan are really the ones that deserve your kind words. You're right about the rifle though. Its definitely cool and I can't wait to get it dialed in.

I may regret asking this, but do you build uppers in .204
with a 1-10 twist for 40 Gr. bullets & what do you think of this set-up?

 

[SteveM]

That is a nice looking finsh there Mike.

I took the 6 x 45 out to break it in a little. I ended up getting some groups that makes me believe the upper has some promise.

Wow, I agree that rounds has some potential! Great work on the first upper in your post, too. No doubt the new owner is very proud.

Mike, what was the load you were shooting in the 6x45?

 

[dtech]

Those three groups were all moly-coated 60.5 grain Judd bullets, Winchester 748 powder, Remington 7-1/2 match primers and Lake City brass. They were .3 grain inc. starting at bottom left, going clock-wise. I am going to try some a little hotter than the last group as it looks like it's still "tightening up".

Got a question on the White Oak Armament hand guard.
Is that the model that they sell already camo'd up or did you do a custom camo job?
