More testing today with POI shift. I can definitely see a d.wilson modded MRP in my future. Today saw an average deviation of -.3 mil elevation and .2 mil right compared to the control prone/bipod/bag string. Kinda feel like the MRP would clean up the deviation. For now, I’ll add .3 to my...

And that’s faster than a midlength 12.5 Triarc I had with IMI 77 at ~2350-2375. But I feel IMI is slower than other loadings, need to test more of that though.

I’m personally a huge fan of the SCO reticle in my VCOG. At 8x its not bad to get behind either. And a 28mm objective lense is only ~7% smaller than the 30mm size the Mk5 uses, so it shouldn’t be that big of a deal.

I’d assume the upcoming Steiner or ZCO 210 would take the cake for an optic for your use need.

Are there any better pics of the mil reticle out yet?

Appreciate the caution on pic rail, but I kinda hate Mlok. If I don’t end up using the MRPL upper, my handguard will at least change to a BCM QRF 12. Though I can definitely see a MRPL in my future. The absolute ease of mounting to a rail is so nice.

@GUNNER10 True. Realistically I’m doing 2k rounds per year, and that is a stretch. More like 1k. I think I’ve had this barrel since late 2023 and I’m at 565 rounds, most of that slow fire, and about 150 of that during one competition in January. At this rate, this barrel would last 10-13 years...

2900 with heavier loading is still moving. I think I was hitting 2800ish with IMI 77 out of a WOA 20” barrel I had once.

Ammo: AAC 77 OTM, 2630 FPD, 24-26 SD. This ammo is so far the more accurate out of this barrel. Barrel: Black River Tactical 16” “Optimum” CHF CL barrel Optic: Trijicon VCOG SCO 1-8 set at 8x Yeah the norm for this barrel is 1.5 MOA. And yeah I chase the Mk12 concept while keeping it as...

With 75-77 grain bullets, I’m averaging 2630-2670 fps from my 16” barrel. 2750 would be SMOKING.

Your SDs mirror mine with AAC and BMC ammo.

Well, beside me and my barrel not doing well today, there was obvious shifting from different positions at 100y. Top left: probe with bipod and rear bag Top right: tripod standing off bag Bottom left: tripod kneeling off bag Bottom right: prone sling support And yeah, I need more...

LOL. I think the recent CLE closing has me wondering about future logistics as logistics plays a huge role in the firearms I buy. @M8541Reaper Yeah anything smaller than 1 MOA is gravy for me. 1 MOA is technically a head size target at 800 yards. I am not capable of that degree of wind calling...
