Now I dig that rifle!! I've been waiting on reports of how the BA barrels shoot. Also it appears you have no charging handle on the side charger?!

Nice looking rifle, what do you think of the optic? I've been looking at getting the exact same one for an upcoming 18" barreled Grendel.

It's sitting on the front porch according to UPS
My buddy has the 12.5 and it's shooting slightly under 1 inch with wolf. I can't wait to let some fly... and some good stuff at that

Super impressed. I haven't shot it yet, but it's made well and the glass is clear... and eye relief is great for me

Sweet - what does it tip the scale at? Did you color the barrel yourself - if so, how?

Brownells alumahyde ... prepped, sprayed, baked (wife wasn't home!) used it on the upper too.
We will see if it holds up.
I need to scale it... but I'm thinking with all the billet, scope, and added rails... 7lbs unloaded...
