It's a Geissele URG-I Near Clone upper - so the rail is a Geissele 13.5" SMR MK16, and the barrel is a Geissele 5.56MM 14.5" GOV profile, CHF, Chrome Lined, Mag Phos, ChromolyV, 1/7 Twist with mid-length gas. I do not - it comes wiht the tuning fork at the end. My god it just takes moving the rifle around to make it sing. |

Holddd up, I recognize that Steiner Looks right at home, just like that 8.5” URX 4. I like your style. |

Your painted rifle is ugly, but I’m uglier, so send it to me and I’ll make it look good!

Is that the P4xi? I'm considering replacing my PA Nova with one of these on an 11.5 so I can put the 1-6 back on the 16". Any thoughts? I'm new to lpvo's, the Nova is my only one, but I've ran a short cqb course with it and will be doing more along with (if the stars align) a DMR course out to 500yds with it. |

I have a couple P4xi’s, a T5xi and a Nova. The only advantages of the Nova are price and higher top end magnification. The Steiners have significantly better glass. That said, I wouldn’t pay more than ~$550ish for a P4xi, which you can find occasionally. At $700+ there are better options. |

I don't plan on doing more than 500 with my 11.5", so 4x is all I need. And i can get the P4xi for under $600, so it seemed like a good deal lol might have to jump on it in a few months. Anyone able to compare the steiner to the Razor Gen II? |

I sold my razor and got a p4xi and leupold mk3hd 1.5-4x… 4x is perfect in my opinion for 80% of what a 10.3-14.5” gun will need. If you need more than 4x, take the weight hit and go to something with an upper mag range of 8x or 10x… I’ve been a fan of the EP-8 1-8x by Arken… |

Nice looking rig! -T My 14.5” 6ARC (a few posts up) is slinging factory 103gr ELD-X at 2460fps @ 80* ambient. At sea level, it goes transsonic a bit past 850y. Zeroed at 100y, drop at 800y is 8.4 mil. With a 10mph full value crosswind, I'm seeing 2 mils of wind drift at that distance. For comparison purposes, that’s 1/2 mil less drop and a full mil less wind drift at 800y than one of my 14.5” 5.56 guns slinging Magtech Mk262 (77gr SMK) at 2600fps. |

I’m battling the option of getting a set of bino NV or building a 6ARC… this is a tough call based on those numbers |

The 14.5” Proof CF 6ARC barrel is getting 2450fps at 1280DA. Factory 108’s were 11 Mils to IPSC steel at 930 yards, 12 Mils to 988 yards. Past 988 the wind kicked my butt… 17.5 Mils to hit the same size target at 1273 yards just for fun. (used a Mk5 3-18 T3 that day) For what it’s worth my 18” Proof SS barrel is getting 2554fps at the same DA. 10 Mils to 940 yards. Both barrels have under 200 rounds. |

I think it's well understood but it's pretty darn high backpressure. This BRT barrel is reasonably gassed and it's still punchy with an H3 buffer behind it. It's not beating the gun to pieces so I can accept it...but very noticeable vs say my LPM Torch. |
