Anybody get one of that short run back on New Year's Day 2016 ?
We're closing on the next run. Costa owners should watch for an email asking if they'd like to call dibs on their Costa's serial number. More to follow.

Cool that you got ammo in the swag box!
You didn't say but if that's your group, were you expecting different results? |

Mark zeroed it, took it apart, cleaned it, shipped it in two different boxes almost 2,000 miles at the mercy of UPS, I added a Tranquilo when it got here, put the scope back on and shot it on my lawn. If it had been a pig sized target I could have easily engaged it out to the max effective range of the rifle based off the zero it held during all that and expected good results at the terminal end 
Impressive if you ask me. |

The CTR stock with your riser-While I haven't used it it would appear the cheek weld would be to high. Is the rail on the 7.62's higher than 5.56 rifles or am I missing the purpose of the riser? I have the risr and tried it out for a while, but I also think it's just a bit high for the standard 7.62's. It works in some positions, but I just decided to go back to the RAT stock. I think the original purpose was for the OBR with the 20moa rail, since the back end of the rail would be higher. Yes, the AR-10 has a slightly higher rail height. |

Picked mine up.
VERY NICE!! 
Covered in oil! Is there anyway to add a bolt release lever similar to BAD levers so I can get to it with my right hand? Why was the test target a photocopy and how does Larue mount a scope for test firing without leaving any scuffs from the scope mount? Pew Pew tomorrow!

Got her sighted in and tested different ammo.
I need more practice
An ambi bolt release and safety would be very handy IMO. Amazing rifle!

Called Larue this morning. Told me 2 more weeks before my rifle would ship, and an additional 2 weeks past that for the .260 barrels.
I did not purchase the scope/mount combo either. |

I focus on those two things and my groups tighten back up. |

For sure need more practice as well as practice being consistant with breathing and trigger control.
I was surprised at the rat stock, I like it as well as really like the grip. Think I wasted my money on the CTR/Riser stock but may use it someday. Anyone add ambi safeties or charging handles to Larue rifles? |
