Nice rifle. Now load you up some 120 Speer Gold Dots and you will not be sorry when you start shooting game with it.
When I built my AR with 18" Oden Works barrel with mid-length gas I used a STNGR (forgot which one) handguard and my gas block just barely touched. I have a Dremel tool with a flex wand extension that I could get inside the hand guard after removed off the rifle and reach where needed to be ground away. Using the same handguard with same Oden style barrel in 223 I had the same problem.

Update . Was having some accuracy issues with build 1.5-2 in groups at 100 , with hornady 123 black eldm.. It is all that was available in my area... So I did the next logical thing lol swapped barrels lol .. used satern 16in cut rifled barrel and what a difference.. Now Im getting under 1/2in , time to hunt.
Was trying to upload photos but its a huge pain with the size and mb limits.
Good start. Do yourself a favor and shoot some rapid 10 shot groups. That will tell you more than anything else what your load is going to do in real conditions. Rapid because it's as good as anything else at simulating stress from excitement, and it'll let you know what to expect as far as kill zone radius in the field, especially for any necessary follow ups. If I'm under 5 inches at 200, I load 50 and quit my development. That's deadly at any range, considering you'll be much more careful for your actual shots.
Nothing kills the incentive of men faster than a healthy sense of entitlement. Nothing kills entitlement faster than a healthy sense of achievement.
Will do ... hopefully I can use it for our end of year match... Our rifle club does practical shooting matches at the end of the year 100 and 200 yards no rear rest and off hand... been placing but never won yet ... only 20 down the tube so Im hopeful it will tighten up a little.
Ive havent weighed it yet but its light... the barrel is called light weight... the front half is thick and stiff and after gas port drops down to near pencil dia.. Ill jump on the scale later but guessing about 8lbs
The barrel also came with a asr brake , I swapped rail over to a bcm kmr due to the gas block near touching the centuron rail... I also feel like the gas port was undersized on the Wilson barrel kept having feeding issues and no lock back with gas block full open.. I even switched from a h2 buffer to a jp silent capture 2 system... all problems went away with barrel swap ... now gas block is open less than half way with perfect feeding and ejection...
