Good. Uploading from my phone is a pain. I'm kinda bummed it's so muddy out here right now. I was hoping to shoot it some today. I can go out to 400m here at home and 2000 yards at the range. Need to chain up all 4 to get up the road to the LRP at the range and after walking out to just my 25 yard target and back this morning, I could hardly walk with 4 inches of mud on my boot soles. It was shooting 5 round ragged hole when I sighted at 100 yds a few days ago. It was short stroking then, when I remembered I'd left a heavy carbine buffer in it. Oops! Has a T2 now and expect that will solve the problem.

Now if it will just dry out or freeze again.

It's a JP barrel, picked up on sale from OP along w/ Odin brake. Bundled price was $504 + change shipped.
Not sure on weight, side by side it is no heavier than a 16" BCM Reece in the safe. Significantly lighter than 18" 5.56 DMR build w/ WOA SPR barrel.
I'll report back on exact weight, with and w/o the Vortex.
