      Hopefully you got the bolt and barrel from same source headspaced or know someone that can check hs 4 U if you dont have the guages

      I used Aero Precision Upper and Lower on my last build shoots great and had no issues with fit on anything. I did use the brownell truing tool and bedded barrel in upper with blue loctite. Truth be told the truing tool did not take much off.

          Welcome to the forum!
          I hunt North Texas with a 20" Heavy Barrel when in the open areas, and that can get a little heavy over the day. It depends on how much truck time you have in the hunt. The 20" and 600 yards is not a problem.
          Keep us posted on your build.
