Welcome to the clan, Wli, from the great nation of Texas! IT takes a brave person to be in NY and openly admit to having anything that goes "boom" much less a "self-feeding" black thing. You're off to a great start. How's 'bout some pix!

I notice in both pix that scope / scope mount is bridging the upper reciever and handguard. THat is a poor practice and typically reduces accuracy. THe handguard does not have a sufficiently rigid attachment to the upper receiver to do that. Otherwise, they are good looking rifles.

Nice to have you with us.

hmm good to know, i guess ive never though about the mount bridging the two but makes sense. and yeah the scope mount has since been changed to the proper direction haha, that was my first build and first rifle i've owned.
I welcome any advice i can get, so heres what i have on the way. a grendelhunter 18"fluted upper, magpul PRS stock, vortex crossfireII 6-18, it will go on my POF billet lower. i will be purchasing all my ammo as i havent stepped into the reloading world just yet. so any advice on range ammo and hunting ammo would be appreciated.

How is it going? Any pics and reports about accuracy? I'm about to start my build and torn between 16" stainless barrel from Grendel Hunter vs Faxon.
