Here she is! My favorite Rifle Evahh... I even hunt with it. Don't mind her friends, they snuck in at the last second.

I'd change out the polymer MBUS for metal BUIS of you're going to keep the front sight on the gas block.

Just my 2¢…

Lookin good! What is your take on the JP brake?

That bipod looks odd to me, just sayin.

[SC_Mike]

very nice gents.

 

[Bedouin2W]

Less than 8lbs, 1oz as it sits right now. Trying to decide on a magnified optic and bipod that will keep the weight down.

 

[LASigmon]

Don't put an Accupoint on it if you are concerned about the weight. They are nice scopes but heavy. The Atlas bipod I have isn't very light either but according to the YouTube video I just watched it is lighter than the Harris. Who knew

I like the brake but I was expecting more recoil reduction and it is loud. It is worth it though because I can stay on target now. As for the bipod it's an Atlas. I like it a lot. I prefer not to have external springs and it is, I believe, more adjustable than the Harris. I think there is a YouTube video about it.

Thanks, it's so hard to find info about the relative strength to weight ratio for a bipod. I'm thinking about just putting on a Grip Pod in order to keep the weight down.

Did you have to remove your ambi for the 24c? I had to cut one side of mine out so the firing pin would hit. You shoot yours yet?

yeah, I cut the ambi flush with the interior of the receiver and epoxied it back in place, looks stock, but the ambi doesn't work.

Yep, I would be done as well! Show us some groups big boy! I hope yours will hit something cause mine won't hit the broad side of a barn and went back over a week ago!

I shot better groups with my old Colt 15 iron sights last weekend that the 10 has done yet with three different scopes!!

I like the paint job, which is it you use? Think I am going FDE/ camo on my stuff soon.

 

[MistWolf]

I used Rustoleum. The handguard alone was sprayed with a textured Carribean for better grip, then I used Satin Fossil, Satin Nutmeg, Satin Warm Caramel and Flat Brown on the whole rifle. The photo above was taken before the handguard was painted. I'll try to take a couple new photos soon.

For accuracy, I've been testing a few different loads. Groups have shrunk about a half to a full MOA with the installation of the free float handguards. Three shot groups with the Hornady and Nosler 165/168 gr polymer tip bullets are coming in between 1 and .75 MOA. Winchester Silvertips were just under 1.5 MOA. Of course, three shot groups don't tell the whole story but ammo has been limited but accuracy is more than adequate for taking game, even past reasonable ranges.

I haven't weighed it in it's current configuration, but it's probably about 9 lb unloaded. Not as light as a Remington Mountain Rifle, but recoil isn't as heavy or as sharp

 

[LASigmon]

This is at 100 yds with some reloads someone gave me. This was before the PRS install but it's still shooting the same. I didn't take any pics of the last target.
