How did your first few rounds of brass look? I got one of the OW 20's recently, and my first few shots looked like a bit of a rough/ringed chamber. Not enough to keep the action from cycling (I think; the ASC mags seem to be the limiting factor for now) but a bit disappointing considering the price, and quality of the exterior (which was nicely lathe turned, but then coarsely scuffed with sandpaper before packing which I felt hurt the look a bit)

Nice rifle OP, though for a second I thought it was missing a pistol grip in that last photo . That comp looks like it should reduce recoil a good bit; is the flash still noticeable with the barrel this long for you (I'd think Wolf would be as bright as anything)? I found the flash more than I was expecting from a bare muzzle but enjoy the low recoil so I'm considering a flash hider though I was first considering a brake like yours.

Brass was fine no problems with it. Quality of the barrel was great no scuffs. I had not noticed the flash but now you have asked about it I will pay more attention next time I go shooting.
