    Here's a quick phone snap shot for now. Pay no attention to the red nipple, that's Lilja's thread protector for shipping.


    Currently its wearing a thread protector made by a local shooter, and it will have a Killer Innovations (http://www.shop.killer-innovations.c...308stdtblk.htm) brake on it soon.


    The AR Stoner BCG is going to be replaced with a PSA premium as of tomorrow. The scope mount ended up being a SWFA SSALT mount, same as the PEPR only $20 cheaper. The gas block is a Troy low profile.

    Think that fills in most the info that was left out of the OP.

    Oh yea, and its become apparent that I need a bigger charging handle. Probably end up with a BCM mod 3 (large).

      Got a Killer Industries brake on it and got it back to the range on Sunday. Got it actually sighted in, and this is a sub MOA gun for sure, even in my hands, which are very inexperienced.

          The brake is great. A buddy has a gill brake on his, which is VERY concussing to surrounding shooters, and still isn't as soft shooting as the KI brake. I went with the ".308 Tapered standard brake (black)" since I got the 5/8" threading for more brake options over the 9/16" AA threading. Below you can see the brake closer up. I had to grind the crush washer a tad to get it to index correctly at the correct torque, but it tapers pretty well back to the barrel

            Thanks for the extra info!! So the KI is gentle to fellow people at the range? That is a big concern as I shoot at a club and often have new and younger shooters in the range.

            I have the 13" Troy alpha on my 18" barrel one.

              The KI brake is very gentle to surrounding shooters. One guy stood to the right of me while I was shooting and said it wasn't concussing at all.

              Just looked at your build thread, and its coming along nicely along with some nice groups. Hopefully I can get out one more time and shoot 100 and 200yds and remember to take pics of my targets.
