Welcome aboard!

We're looking forward to seeing how she shoots for you at the range and in the field!

Heading to the range on the 17th to get her sighted in. I have seasoned the barrel..she shoots well!

Seasoned the barrel? vas ist das?

That is where you start with a clean barrel, shoot 1 round, disasemble and clean the barrel until black is just about gone. I repeat this about 5 times. Them do 3 shots and the same cleaning process. This process is also known as breaking in the barrel

Beautiful rifle and welcome aboard.

Did you bed the barrel into the upper by any chance?

New to the forum and first rifle build - BClark43 - 12-08-2016

The upper was complete by hardened arms

Thanks for the compliments. I was able to get to the range today and get her sighted in. She shoots awesome! Time to start reloading my own

Looks very nice! So how did range time go?

Awesome build.

New to the forum and first rifle build - Frank45 - 03-23-2017

Me like. Particularly the hand guard. I too need to start rolling my own.
