Posted: 8/24/2016 1:30:53 PM EDT

I'm finally getting the last of the parts in that I had on my lists for multiple build I had been planning. I already bought 2 more lowers. I wanted this to be a very nice three gun type rifle with high end parts, I think I accomplished it. Was just waiting on the Syrac Adjustable block to finish her off. Just delivered yesterday. More photos to follow once I start working on it tonight.

This build looks amazing. Can't wait to see it put together and finished.

why not a noveske barrel if you don't mind me asking? My noveske barrels are the best shooters I have.

Thank you... It shouldn't be long. Lower is completed. Tonight I just have to put the barrel and rail on.

I guess Its the same reason I am putting a 16.7 NSR on a CMT Tactical Build I have going right now instead of on this build. Which is???? No Particular reason. I actually ordered a matched set of WC Receivers, Maybe I'll do a Noveske on that one. Part of it was I didn't want a bead blasted barrel on this one, the SLR Helix Rail shows a lot of the barrel so I thought it would showcase a shiny-fluted barrel.

I wish I'd stopped at that number.

Cool gun OP. You'll like the Razor if you haven't already shot with one.

That grip....im drooling like an Autobot....

Sweet rig my man. I was thinking about a wilson combat barrel based build myself but with lighter weight furniture like a balios receiver set and bcm hg. Definitely let us know how this shoots. Should be submoa all day.

Posted: 8/29/2016 4:14:56 PM EDT

[#14]

it is fairly light. Of course the Razor needs to go on a diet, but its soooo awesome. The SLR Helix rail is pretty darn light There just isnt much to it.. I'm sure once i get it to the range and get the Syrac Dialed in it will shoot as sweet as they come. As far as addiction, this is # 4 this year, with another one at Mad Custom Coating getting Cerekote before i put it together. All of those parts are waiting in the safe.

The Executive Ordnance G10 Grip feels like $1M . awesome

Beautiful Build!

Nice build also using the Wilson Combat Recon 16" 1/8 twist but with no fluting. It's by far the most accurate barrel out of all of my rifles and it's machining fit and finish is superb. I'll post my 5 shot group if I can still find the picture of the target. I don't give a shit about the MOA all day challenge so don't call me out but I garuntee you guys will love your accuracy. Usually mine hovers around 5/8" five shot 100yards with Nosler 55gr bullets.

Found the first day at the range with the Wilson Combat barrel, so this should give you happiness that your barrel will be a tack driver.

This is all with Ultramax Remanufactured 55gr Nosler orange tipped varmint loads, rra 2 stage, Vortex 1-4 Viper PST. Never have tried any sierra matchkings or match loads in it for accuracy so I just stuck with the Nosler for groundhog slaying.

This was from it just plugging a way at the target.

First off, beautiful build with a helluva sweet selection of parts. I'm putting a Sharps Reliabolt BC in a build I'm doing as well, did it give you any problems?

That handguard ain't my speed, but man it looks LIGHT.

I bet the balance would be awesome if you put a heavier stock on, ie a UBR.

Looks like you spared no expense for what you wanted.

Great looking rifle!

Thanks for the complement. Balance is actually exceptional, it points extremely naturally. The rail is light. I wish I would have weighed it, has to be up there close to the other extremely light rails. I think the combo of heavier barrel and light hand-guard work well with the BCM Stock. The only thing that is noticeable weight-wise is the Razor. But the glass is so SWEET, for me, its worth the weight penalty. I bet, I'd have to double the price to get the quality in a lighter package. Thinking Kahles, or similar. The hand-guard lets me see that beautiful Wilson Fluted Barrel. It wasn't meant to be a tactical build so I didn't need all the slots. The only thing left is a set of BoBro back ups, but I cant find them anywhere. I may not go with any BUIS, but I think out of all of my rifles, they BoBros work best on this one.

I was finally able to put some rounds through Blue last night at my farm. To dark to do any accuracy test, but I was able to get the Syrac Gas block on point. The combination of the JP Brake, Syrac gas block tuned to my load (62gr. green tips) and the JP captured buffer made this the softest AR I have ever shot, and possible the softest rifle period. It simply did not move. If you didnt hear the loud blast from the JP Break, you would not know the rifle was even fired looking through the optic. My two buddies were with me, and they couldnt believe it when they shot it. I wish I could let all of you shoot it to see for yourself. So, not only does it look awesome it feels high end too. Now just need to see how accurate she is...

I took my rifle out again last night, I forgot to mention that the the first night I got when I got the Syrac dialed in, Sharps BCG was very tight in the receiver, It didnt fully chamber the rounds. I looked at it, and at first I thought the bolt was off size. It just wouldnt go into the chamber. No big deal, I just switched to a MIL-spec BCG I had with me.
So when I was cleaning it the other night, I looked closer. When I had the bolt out, it went right into the chamber. It wasn't the bolt at all. For some reason the tolerance stacking on this Noveske Gen# upper and the Sharps Carrier caused a problem and the bolt was down just a smidgen and therefore would not engage the chamber. I tried the Sharps in 3 other rifles with no problems at all. No other BCGs had an issue in the Noveske.

I just had to mix it up. I emailed both manufacturers to make them aware.

Last night, I went shooting to zero the scope. I didn't have any bags, or a bi-pod, so I was just shooting off-hand. I was getting about a 1 1/2" to 2" groups at 100 yards shooting off hand and got it pretty close to dialed in. I need to get it on my lead sled to get it really dialed in (I just forgot to bring it), along with tacks for my paper targets... I still cannot believe what a dream this is to shoot. It just feels right, with the EO Grip and BCM stock. The Viper GenII HD is amazing. It was dusk by the end of my session, and the scope uses every bit of light that is available.

I put 45degree Magpul Pros on it while I am waiting to find some BoBros.

I also have a SD3 that I am going to use in this instead of the SDE to see if I like it. That will be changed this week.

[#24]

Here are some pics with the new JP LMOS BCG and Magpul Pro offest BUIS. Also changed the SDE to the SD3 to see which one I like on here best. I'll probably only run the Magpul 45's until I locate some BoBro BUIS. The one by the charging handle is crowded... Or Maybe I'll run the Razor Red dot on a 45...
