No the 5.56 barrel you linked is the barrel I weighed back a page slightly lighter than the Shaw.
The barrel I shot the group with is a 6 ARC 16” parkerized M4, 1:8 mid length gas. It weighs 24 oz
Ammo was Hornady match 108 eldm. The 103 eldx shot as well for 4 shots, it rushed one and it...
On another topic. What the heck are the extra o rings for in the package with my new solo 300 upper? They are in a baggie with a sticker. No instructions
Fantastic. One shot to get roughly on target. Shots 2-6 are in the 5 shot group. Then made a vertical adjustment and shot the bull on shot 7. Took it to 425 and hit a gong dead center for shot 8 and then went to 571 and shot two shots both on the gong for 9 and 10. Using a molinator for a...
My Shaw came today as well. Still waiting on the handguard so couldn’t assemble.
Bear creek barrel is a bit lighter. Probably a wash or little heavier with lightweight backward gas block.
Thanks. Meant to put that info in the post. It’s gassed right now to run some rounds through and get things smoothed out. My plan is to remove gas here at some point and see if I can manage without it.
If extraction is too difficult I’ll use a lightweight adjustable gas block and put just...
Got my 6 ARC upper thrown together. Not meant to be the lightest possible and I had a hard time finding a barrel weight that was built light. They all favored full. I didn’t want to commit to two solo uppers since the arc might not chamber and extract great. Used a BCA side charge upper and...
I had to shim my factory plastic bottom metal when torqued to 60-65 in lb to make the HCA mag latch. Mike at HCA said there is a tolerance window that is fairly wide on the tikka end so he had to pick a number and it doesn’t always work without a shim.
I did find larger diameter washer with...
Got a Shaw portless coming. And I’ll have a spare BCA ported because I wasn’t patient enough.
Going 223 Wylde with 77 TMK in a Solo and also going to make a side charging 6 ARC with BCA upper. If the ARC is too hard to cycle I’m going to turn an adjustable gas block way down to just crack...
I have a pair of Forces with closed loop instead of hook including the lock eye. Forces makes size 15, regular quest stops at 14. Have 3 pair of quest in 14, one of Forces in 15. Closed lace loops are a non issue. Just pull and tie. Laces are long so I tie the ends in a knot when removing...
JP Enterprises would be my bolt choice if I had other pieces like you do.
I don’t have their bolt but I put most of their enhanced pieces on my BCA 6.5 Grendel bolt/bcg. My BCA extractor broke which is what led me to JP. I have 700-800 rounds on it and going strong. I think it broke around...
Anyone want to post a link of the hogue 15 degree lightweight grip? I’ve had no luck locating on Midway or PSA.
Weighed a tango down at 2.4 oz and an Ergo 25 degree at 2.9 oz.
I much prefer less grip angle
