    6.5g(18)



    Current setup is Prairie Tactical Arms upper on UT Arms (Made in Kansas) lower, with parts pieces for the lower kit.

    Scope is Burris XTR2 3-15x scr-mil, rings are L&S Mk4 34mm steel SH (1.4 center).

    Suppressor is SC Omega.

    Harris 6-9 bipod with ADM AD mount.

    Sling is Tactical Interventions Specialist.

    Stock is MagPul

    Trigger is timny 3lb

    I use e-lander 17 rd mags with <= 15rds in them.

    I've been using Hornady AMAX123, then ELD for most purposes, but SST123 for hogs. Preparing to switch to Federal 130 Berger, but will use up all the hornady.

    The riser rail on the receiver is so I can mount the scope on a single rail and not bridge to the forearm. It also allows me to remove the forearm without removing the scope. A monolithic rail on top of the existing rails will bend something somewhere. Then the forearm riser rail is to make level with the receiver riser rail for clipons.

    Oh and the tripod interface on the bottom rail just in front of the mag well is McRee Precision Manfrotto interface. I shoot mostly off tripods, so I leave the interface on there.

    The gun as shown is 13 pounds 7 oz. With a magazine with 15rds it is 14 lbs 8 oz. And with the thermal clipon and 15 rd mag it is 15 pounds 11 oz. I didn't weigh it stripped, but it is pretty light. I'd guess 7 pounds.

    On my land I can get out to 770yds off the tripod ... and at Spear Point Ranch in North Central Kansas I've shot it out to 900yds day and night prone and it can get the job done.

    For a stoner rifle, that runs on a 5.56 lower, it might be the most capable general purpose platform out there. I have several stoner carbines I use for patrol type hunting ... (wandering about aimlessly ) ... as they are light and handy ... but they do not have the reach and are challenged beyond 300yds.
