XLR 4.0 builds

anyone experiment with adding something to the forend to make it comfier to carry in the cold like soft Velcro or something? didn't you put something @Mark at EXO ?
Has this been solved? I used to hunt coyotes in the winter with an Ar and I’m not sure if I want the chassis if it’s going to be freezing cold. I was wondering if the MG had a warmer feel than the aluminum

I got some of the talon grip from Amazon like Mark suggested and haven't installed yet but alone these (aluminum chassis) are not comfortable to carry in the cold. If you're wearing gloves might be less of an issue
 
Thx only difference is I’m a 24” and trying to run an ATACR we will see if it’s “too heavy”
My 4-16 is an ATACR. It's a boat anchor. It's the one thing I consider changing.

Admittedly, this build came in heavier than I would have liked, but it's a lot of capability for the weight.

Well I’m betting mine is right at 10. I’ve got the 5-25. I imagine the weight will help me a little with the recoil on the 7 PRC but also hurts trying to build a light setup and it being finished at 10lbs…
 
Here's what we are running for 5 year old right now.

He picked the color.

Bergara B-14R Steel

Bushnell TRS-25

Griffin Checkmate

Will get a Maven RS1.2 on it soon and then once that acclimation period is over I have a Defiance Classic to put a 223 barrel on with a Scythe Ti.

We updated our guns.

I haven't shown the boys yet but I made a profile for these guns in Shooter App and waited until they went inside and cranked the elevation on the lefty up to 14.3 mil and put some CCI standard velocity 40gr on our 300 yard target. 200 was 7.5 mil elevation. 50 yard zero.

I was giggling.

Changes:
- swfa 3-9x42s
- hawkins featherweight rings
- fluting by LRI
- Younger son is working on his paint pen skills.

PS: I dated myself in the first post. The maven doesn't clear the bell in these rings and who knew at the time that Scythe's were POS's.

I know this is a little older thread. I fold mine and throw in the meat shelf of my pack for the bulk of the hike.
