UPDATE on my second barrel.
ALL GOOD! I picked up a Atlas bi pod form a friend looking to unload and had to add a forward rail, only I didn't have a M-LOC rail only KEY-MOD's so I stopped and picked one up and the guy offered to install for me if I had the rifle. So sure, he did it in front of me. Well I have a sling stub mount for a Harris bi pod mounted and its screws where hard into the gas block!! So much that they marked the block. Immediately I worried about accuracy as I had proven multiple loadings with the barrel like this... All those range trips, shooting and loading time wasted...
Range trip with the rifles preferred loading of RL15 and a 123 SST proved I was worried for no reason.
The rifle shot just under 1.75 MOA @ 200

Mostly touching @ 100

Overall, for 69$ and a little waiting I have a serviceable hunting rig. Strongly considering a 450 Bushmaster upper form BCA...
