Alright guys, i been posting here multiple times about my first 6.5G build. I decided to go with simple kit with shitty parts in it and now ended up updating something here and there.
Anyway, here is what I have so far:
The whole thing weights 11.09lbs together with sight and empty 24 rnd mag.
The only thing there now is that Vortex Strike Eagle with BDC for 223...completely irrelevant, just grabbed it cuz i had it (looking to get rid of it and buying the proper optics)
Things to do:
Well, everything is done... had Timney trigger unscrewed after 500 rounds, so i got extra set screws and did KNS antiwalk pins, so its fixed, got extractor broke...so i bought Toolcraft BCG, initially BCA barrels were shit, so i got them send me a better more expensive ones... so all good now.
The only thing which is still maybe doing after some time is...get a much better barrel,. most likely will be Faxon 20" or JP 22"? will see but that is later.
Right now, the thing which i really NEED is recommendation for a scope, here are my requirements:
The other day i was closely looking at VCOG from Trijicon...but that sucker costs $2000, is it worth it? and plus...its actually 6x only...and i saw someeone on internet saying that its not actually as good glass quality as some other brands.
so.... can you point me to some scope?
because of my last requirement, Vortex is out of question...correct? Does US special forces even use vortex?
Alright, here go pics of my updated beast:
Anyway, here is what I have so far:
- BCA 20" Straight fluted barrel, 3.1 lbs weight
- Toolcraft BCG NiB
- custom milled 7075 lower
- 7075 upper
- 7075 charging handle with side thingy for easy access

- Timney Targa 2 stage short trigger
- KNS Anti Walk pins
- Elander magazine 24 rnd
- 15" 6061 handguard
- T-POD G2 Bipod/Grip (amazing product! from grip to bipod in less than second, and super sturdy in both modes! plus swivels too!)
- Cerakoted trigger guard, upper,lower,handguard, pistol grip and stock in Tungsten color
- Trigger guard with finger stop and mag load assist functionality, very ergonomic
The whole thing weights 11.09lbs together with sight and empty 24 rnd mag.

Right now, the thing which i really NEED is recommendation for a scope, here are my requirements:
- I need scope with MOA divisions, both horizontal and vertical, its a must for me
- Need illuminated scope
- PArallax control would be nice
- Needs to have good forgieving eye reliefe (or maybe even one which allows shooting with both eyes open?)
- Magnification, 8x-10x or so
- Recommend me FFP or SFP? My distances of interest for this rifle are: 100-800yards
- Needs to be ROBUST. no cheap stuff. it needs to be of some brand which military would use too
