    HELLO from WI

    Hello all,

    Great site,...finally went and ordered parts to finish my grendal build.

    Aero precision lower
    Mil spec parts kit, (trigger will be replaced) currently polished 5.5 lbs with a bit of creep.
    MAGPUL ASCL stock grey
    Ergo over molded grip grey

    Aero precision M4E1 GEN2 upper with 12" mlok rail
    Odin works 18" intermediate barrel
    Odin BCG
    Odin AGB
    Odin Atlas6.5 comp

    Waiting on delivery of upper parts,...calling it my APOS build.
    (Aero Precision Odin Shooter) we'll have to see if the other meaning of that acronym has any merit! 😁

      Welcome from snowy northern WI. I've got the same Barrel and BCG in my rifle. Its a shooter. Yours should not be a pos.

        Welcome, from northern Nevada, where this morning’s low hit 26, and the high this afternoon will see 65. I’ve never heard a bad word uttered about Odin, so I’m certain you’ll have a shooter there.

          Upper came in today, waiting on barrel and bcg. Impressed with AP parts. Absolutely tightest fitting upper, and lower I've ever handled.

                  It will be used for stand deer hunting. 10-200 yards shots with majority in 50-80 yards. Occasional coyote calling session. Wanted accurate low recoil with good terminal performance on deer. Also enjoy handloading chasing that one hole group. Informal out to 300 yards. But I have a savage BA stealth in 6.5 cm that has been filling that endeavor lately.

                    Nice list of parts you got there, so my new favorite go to lpk has been the strike industries enhanced parts. Nice bolt, adjustable ambi safety, and awesome take down pins and detent.

                      Good to know,.. ClutchAutomaic,... I'll have to look into it on the next build, ordered the larueTrigger today since they went on sale.

                      This site has been great and EVIL,...haven't finished this build and I'm already looking at budget to do another

                          Update made it to the range finally. 50 yard sight in with hornady factory black. Went into .425 center to center. That was shots 6,7,8 down the barrel.

                          Checked zero at 100 forgot to pull sight in target and began running reloads 130 hornady edlm with benchmark best groups were.797, .845, .933. Yeah I know not the ideal combination of powder and bullets, but I had on hand when I was looking for options.

                          Hornady 95 v max with IMR4198 best groups were .455, .613, .850.
                          Very pleased with results, a big Thank You for all the great discussions, advice and knowledge shared.
                          I will post pictures after I organize my notes

                              Odin barrels are good shooters, they seem to consistently put out quality product as does AP. Thanks for the update, very satifying to see the build come together.
