Build this upper for an upcoming hog hunt. Only had time to run 40 rounds through it to set the gas block and sight in at 50 yds.
Groups about .5", which I was happy with considering a new barrel and factory Hornady 123gr SST's. Avg velocity was 2495.
Elander 17 rd mags worked flawlessly. Also my first time using a stencil to paint the grendel head on my two mags.

Nicely done, how do you like that magpul stock?
Welcome to the horde.

Thanks BCHunter,
I really like the UBR and have them on all of my lowers. Presets are nice.

Those stencil really turned out good, really sharp looking rifle. The piggies are going to regret meeting Mr. Grendel.

Thanks VASCAR2. I didn't get a good seal on a couple of spots in the mag rib, so there were a couple bleed throughs. The pros make it look so easy.
