The first groups while braking the barrel in.
123gn amax over 31 gn CFE

This was with 90gn Speer TNT with 30.2gn of TAC

Over all im very happy with how it turned out and shoots!
I Cerakoted it myself.

Then I saw this guy yesterday and got him at about 120 yrds with 90gn TNTs.

Awesome build, lead chucker! (Or should I say "rock chucker"?)

Looks nice, and good shooter. Well done sir.

I like the weathered look of the cerakote... well done

[lead chucker]

LOL... Thanks guys! I couldnt be happier with it. I see it becoming my favorite AR I own quickly. One thing I didn't mention was how light it is, I would like to get a little lighter scope for it in about a 10x and I have a Tbac ultra 7 coming for it. But even with that scope and the suppressor its pretty light feeling. Short and sweet.

That looks and shoots great man... ENJOY!!!

Very cool. And, if you wouldn't mind, save your chronograph data. Guys are always asking what to expect from a 12.5" 65G.

How long is the rev arms rail? I love the look, im starting to like the looks of a 12.5" with a bigger scope. Then with a mini red dot depending on low end Mag level of scope.

Good job writing the build!

That's a great little project right there. Nice build all around. You're going to love the Ultra 7 TBAC.

Thanks guys! Iv been very impressed with the BHW barrel, the 264 chamber and the velocity from the length. I have no complaints at this point, I did bump the 123gn amax up to 31.5 gn of CFE to see what it would do and only got about 70 fps from it but the group opened up some, I think I could adjust the bullet depth for accuracy and will work on that but the 31gn grouped very well.

BFT I'll save all my data from the chrony and have more, I write everything down. I did chrony some 95gn vmaxs over 2500fps.

LRRPF52, Thanks. Yeah I can't wait to get my grimmy hands on the ultra 7! The SBR feels light with the heavy 24oz cyclone it should be super light with the ultra 7 hanging off the end.

Am4966 the rail is a mid length 9" rail. Here is a link. http://rev-arms.com. These guys are great to deal with, I fondled the rail at a local gun show. Then called and talked to them about it before buying one, was on the phone for an hour talking guns, they were more than helpful and a small business trying to grow.

That's a sweet little SBR Grendel!

I forgot to ask how does it sound with the can on? Is it hearing safe?

Its a little loud but iv been shooting it without ear plugs. Its not bad and it stays much cleaner than my blkout suppressed.

Got out and shoot more with it yesterday. I put about 60 rounds through it from 100 yards to 400 yards on paper and steel. I must say that this 12" barrel has totally impressed me and my friends. I checked my zero at 100 yards then hit the 200 and 300 yrd steel with ease first round hit. I then loaded 5 rounds in a mag and put 2 rounds on paper at 400 yards to see what it was doing at that range then shot steel. It took me 2.8 mil to hit at 400 yrds. Here is couple pics!


First 2 rounds on paper at 400 yards.



Here is 3 rounds on steel, the first 2 are dead Center at 400 yards.
