Over all fit and finish looks excellent! It's going on a PSA blem moe lower. Fit as and functioned as it should. Will hopefully get a chance to shoot and sight it in this week, ammo on the way from midwayusa. Unfortunately the 'blem' on my PSA lower is that it looks purple when next to black, so I've disassembled it, and will Duracoat it this afternoon.
For the price of this upper, I wasn't expecting it to look this good. If it shoots as good as it looks, I'll be one happy camper.
IDK what to expect from the federal AE JHP 90 grain. I generally buy factory for first shots before using the brass for reloading. Will be reading up on what you all are liking for bullet weights and powder.
Yes, welcome to Horde. If you read this whole thread, then you probably saw that a BCA upper was also my introduction to 6.5G and I was similarly impressed with the fit and finish, especially for the price. When I finally got out to shoot it, its performance proved to be equally impressive. Hopefully you will have the same experience. Look forward to a report.
