Knobby has been seen by many in the woods of these foothills. Still took the light off as I don't want to be accused of spot lighting, but left the Aimpoint on. Saturday, in the field:  Let a spike walk at sunrise. Enjoying hot bowls of tag soup thus far. The desert digital sling came in yesterday though so, that was nice.

Had this in the treestand last weekend, but switched back to a 16” 450 after having 2 deer run after the shot (both were shot around 89yds and ran 30 & 200 yards, w/good shot placement).
Usually they pile up immediately with a 450, which is why I use that round. I lost about 500 FPS at the muzzle by going this short, which certainly neutered the round. “Bolt action” 8.3” 450 Bushmaster on a SBR’d BRN-180 lower. Can is a Hyrbrid.  |

This is my "go to" when i am home in Atlanta. There it is obviously a urban setting with very real possibility of crime and other issues. I need to add a small light to it like a Surefire M300. Muzzle device has been swapped to run Plan B with a Turbo K. But love I it, a simple and light little LMT.
 But now i travel 365 days a year. I cant do a SBR because i travel. This is my one and only rifle in my life right now. Hunting, plinking, long range work and defensive work if needed. I am mostly in rural areas now with very low crime. I can choose where i travel to for work and i like being "in the sticks". Chances of a home invasion type thing are almost non existent. Most of the time when i am in Wyoming i leave the house with the front door unlocked. I travel mostly out in Wyoming and Montana where distances really open up and i wanted to hunt (smaller game than elk) so i went 6.5 Grendel. I feel really good about the energy 6.5 Grendel carries at longer distance and has amazing terminal ballistics from a defensive perspective. The scope on 2X with the fire dot does surprisingly well up close but i should probable add a offset red dot. Have a Nomade Ti in jail for it that should round it out well. Run a X300 when i need a light so i can swap it back onto my pistol.  |

16” is still my favorite balance between size and muzzle velocity. Great size for a GP rifle.
Anyhoo, since mine unrepentantly flies in the face of ARF convention, I call it The Heretic. 16” M&P15, Adam’s Arms piston kit, Trijicon MRO, Troy BUIS, PigSkin (horned… attached with zip ties), some rail ladders, and a Phase 5 lever to round out all the aspects of it that trigger screeching from the orthodoxy. It also shoots 1.75” at 100m with military ammo, and takes about 4 minutes to clean after 500 rounds, so I’m happy with it.  Also nuthinfancy did a good comparison between a standard birdcage and my YHM Phantom 2 flash hider.  Attached File |

When you quote someone, the image tags are converted to URL tags so that the photo doesn’t appear multiple times on the page bogging down the load. This is where I’d normally say “pic thread” and add another photo, but therein lies the problem lol. |
