    A ballpark for delivery once I give Faxon the go, is about 3 months. I think this is realistic, without being overly optimistic or pessimistic.

    AR, I'm a little leery, for privacy issues, of posting a list of buyers, even if they're just usernames. The BATF, via the FFL system, already knows who buys guns, but I don't know if the guys want the rest world knowing who owns expensive and interesting property.

    A lot of us like to show off our guns when they're finished, but that's a choice best left up to the individual. I'm happy to just maintain my own private list of "paid" and "pending."

    I totally understand and I guess Explorecaves suggestion is what I was looking for. Didn't want to sound like the little kid on the long road trip.... "Are we there yet ??"

          On the fence but I'd like to see a trajectory chart and expected velocities with factory hunting ammo, I know it's probably "out there on the net" but it'd be a selling point if it was easily available here, in this thread.

                What calculator did you use to make that? I'd like to plug in numbers for a 150 or 200yd zero. I'd also like to see 16" barrel velocity and drop.

                  Online ballistic calculators are commonly available, but this is one of the best.



                  Here, you may can plug in your data and run your own tables. As a small caveat, be sure to enter the atmospherics for the elevations you will most commonly shoot at, as the pressure and temperatures will cause significant changes.
                  If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the others here for?

                                W1516: There is no accuracy guarantee. Faxon guarantees it will be machined accurately.
