Last weekend I put my Anderson/Wolf upper on my duty PSA lower with the lickety split trigger (Franklin BFS Gen3). I've been meaning to do that for a couple months but was having too much fun getting used to it with a variety of 5.56 uppers. I have an adequate supply of WPA so ammo cost and availability wasn't a consideration.
My goal, outside of having a blast, was to get reasonably accurate 2 and 6 round bursts. Shooting was off sandbags at the bench to 50 yards That didn't work out so well with the more energetic 6.5 Grendel round. I was lucky to get half the 2nd shots on a silhouette and a quarter the 3rd to 6th shots on target.
All I could manage was 45 rounds for that session. By the way, the setup ran well with one hammer follow stoppage using the heavy duty buffer spring that Franklin supplies. The extra heavy spring may be needed for more reliable 6.5 Grendel operation.
Maybe next time I'll try shooting from the hip - it could actually be easier to control.
