The Mk14 is more ergonomic and comfortable to hold but the KAC Mod 2 gas system is on the tall side so I wanted some more room. Even then it may be a bit close. |

Well here she is. My first foray into the Recce style rifles and also my first decent (semi?) glass.
Aero Enhanced upper and lower BA 1/7 14.5" barrel (pinned) ALG trigger - trying to decide whether to go to MBT or SSA. I prefer single stage. Toolcraft BCG Rock River A2 stock and internals Aero Extended mount Leupold Patrol 3-9 So next up is going to be a good bipod and trigger. I'm not going to bother with BUIS or a light on this one. I'd rather sink that into more ammo and range time. Oh yeah and I can't take pics for shit...enjoy.  Attached File |

I vote stick with the ALG and add the JP springs. They're a lot cheaper and if you like a good single stage, you'll spend easily 10x the price of the springs on a new trigger and might get close. |

Wrecky.
 20200623_125436 by Professor Horseyhead, on Flickr That AA2520 tho, hot damn. 25.2 grains under a 77smk was sending them almost 2770fps average. From the 15.1" barrel you see above.  Hovers around MOA (anywhere from 0.8 - 1.2) so hopefully the same load works well in my Mk12 Mod 1 once I finally get it out to the range (brake en route from Adco now). The H seems to like it too; the Recce and H are Ballistic Advantage barrels, Mod 1 is a White Oak. Had some 52 ELD's over Varget pushing about 2820 (lower load as that's what my WO varmint barrel prefers) from the same gun, those were sub-MOA too. I suppose if I had to bug out with one single rifle......this would be up there. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By UndrGrndPrdcts: Hows it feel and balance overall? Strongly considering the same exact thing. It feels good. Gonna change out the A2 grip to a MOE, maybe add an AFG2 since I'm a C-clamp guy, and add a top ring mount for an Aimpoint H1/T1. I have a top ring mount for a docter/MRDS but it just sits too low and the elevation turret blocks most of the window. |

Took the recce out to 500yds on some steel today. I continue to be very impressed with this rifle, especially the Rainier Arms ultramatch barrel.

How do you guys with 3-(higher number) like your scopes at closer ranges?
I'm planning on a build and part of me wants a 1-8x, but for longer range stuff (which I want to do), well, my eyes aren't what they used to be and I might appreciate the bigger zoom. But the closer stuff is a question. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By RTUtah: Bro that thing is amazing. Here's where I'm currently at... 1. I want a short recce - something good for both CQB and long(er) range, say 0-500m 2. This will be based on a 12.5" mid-length with Mk12 FF RAS, which I will chop the first few notches off 3. As much as I love the AEM5/12th, it's just too heavy for a carbine can, so it's time to pony up for an NT4 4. As much as I want a x24mm NF, for the same money or less, I can scoop up the new 1-8x34mm FFP Trijicon Accupoint, so not clone-correct 5. Rounding this build out will be a modified PRI Holland recce rail and a set of NF medium rings Here's where I'm torn: I can build exactly what you have while I save and wait for the NT4 but that means modifying the barrel twice instead of building it once. Thoughts? @RTUtah do you have any pics of the modified PRI recce rail (if that ever came to fruition)? I'm thinking of modding one to fit on an Armalite fiberglass tube. |

I did modify a PRI top rail to work on an airsoft knockoff medium FF RAS I used on my M&P 15/22. Thing's all the way in the back of my safe so if you really want me to, I'll dig it out and post a pic or two.
