I'll keep that in mind when I start to build one. The holland was what I was leaning towards, so it's good to know price and parts availability are a little better with that build.

Other than a mild wrench mark on the flats, it looks basically new. So, I'm happy. Now I'm just debating between doing it right and pulling the rail so I can get the barrel in vise blocks, or trying with the BEV block first and see if ye ol' 3 prong'll cooperate :\. |

Hopefully at that point it'll just be torque to contend with. It's torqued to SF's recommended 30lbs or so, but that doesn't mean much after heat and carbon. Likely be a good bit more to break it loose. I guess I should just do it right. But then I have to spend 20 minutes with the goddamn half turns on the RIS II bolts each time, then re-Loctite, realign, re-zero the BUIS... it's re: a-pain-in-the-ass. Blah :|. |

Do it right with the vise blocks. these barrels are too expensive to risk breaking a pin. bev block isn't terrible considering it still removes pressure from the upper when cranking on muzzle devices |
