8lbs 4oz with an empty metal C products mag. A shade heavier than I hoped for but no big deal. The Gibbz upper is no lightweight. Quoted:

Really nice! Any idea on weight? 8lbs 4oz with an empty metal C products mag. A shade heavier than I hoped for but no big deal. The Gibbz upper is no lightweight. The YHM handguard isn't all that light either, really. I ran a similar setup for a while then ditched the rail and went with MOE handguards. Lighter and cooler. |

No it isn't, I wish it was a little more "open" in its design but it was to closest thing to what I really want so it works for this build. It is very comfortable to shoot though. Quoted:
Thinking about a 300 since I have an extra lower. Does the gas port have to be opened up? That's a good looking setup. To run subs- which is all I really care about in this rifle- I opened it up to .125". I could have gone a little less I think but with the adjustable gas block it was easier to just open up the gas port and throttle the gas with it instead. |

I have the exact same barrel, and I might need to open up my port hole depending on what ammo I run. I have the factory Seekins adjutable gas port, but like you I could always choke it down with the gas black.
How did you open the port? drill press, bridgeport, etc? |

Drill press with a nice sharp bit, lots of cutting oil, some very careful setup and very slow feed! I was nervous but all went well. |
