Well so far I have the upper done minus BCG. Ordered a Mark 4 MR/T today to mount on top, really excited about that.
Hopefully have a lower coming sometime soon. Gotta go through all the registration hassles first.
Noveske 17" 1/8
LaRue 13.2

Nice! That should be a good shooter.

Got my scope in today. Leupold did me great on this thing. Amazing customer service and even shipped it 2day UPS only charging me flat-rate shipping.

Well I finally got a lower on it.
Picked up a Noveske from Carter over at OGC Tactical with some Magpul furniture.

I'm surprised no black holes opened in your living room marrying a Noveske to LaRue. Space time will collapse anytime now.

So I finally got my scope mount in from LT and I am not happy with Leupold right now. I open my new shiny box and mount my scope, peer through it for the first time and low and behold if I don't see the damn rheostat wires for the illum hanging down into the tubes. And even after that there is scratching inside the front objective lens that must have been done during installation.

Unfortunately, QC at Leupold has really gone downhill
How far canted is your reticle?

The reticle seem fine. For now. But there is something rattling inside and the inner objective lens in the front has scratches on its film.

I would send it back and have them fix it
The warranty with Leupold is pretty top notch

Yes already working on the warranty thing. Now I just have to get time to get it shipped out.
