Just kidding. What kinda ranges y'all got up in yonder hills? Maybe we should pack some blasters and make a road-trip.   I own my own range lol, I use to be a SoCal Coastal Elite, than I got my own range.

@RTUtah @InfamousAK @Eyekahn Yes, there are some peasants in the smokies. But if I could find a job in Cherokee Co. doing what I do and making what I make, I'd be there, but there isn't much. As far as places to shoot, this little abandoned (for now) forestry logging road (identified by the red dots) runs behind my MIL's house and SIL's house:  I will neither confirm nor deny having been on the road...with any rifles...

I ask because I have a 10.3 300 BLK pistol but want to use a 5.56 to save on fur. Wondering if you were getting DRT speeds shooting 50-55 grain pills out of a 12.5.

12.5" grendel
I have not zeroed her yet. On a side note I was thinking about putting an ADM Noveske mount and maybe some other Noveske branded swag on her, but figured what's the point. All the things I hsve on it now have really grown on me and function just fine as is. |

Still neeed mount, BUIS, light, and decide on a forward grip or handstop or something. |

Scored the Vortex 1-6x24 MRAD, ADM mount, covers and throw lever for $1k shipped off FB. Very happy about that.
As posted before, Larue Stealth 12.5" Barrel, BCM Guts, AAC-556. I Have a Geissele 2 Stage in another lower that I will swap out. Hope to get it dialed in this weekend but need some heavier ammo, any recommendations are appreciated. This Larue/Harris bipod is rather large on the rifle, does anything out there have a smaller footprint?  Attached File |
