Two of mine have wrench flats that makes it easy and I bump with the heel of my hand to tighten as well as removal never needed a dead blow hammer. Small amount of anti seize is helpful.

Was using RL17 yea it was warm but not excessive. First barrel didn't make 1000 rounds. I have had several say the same as you but this is my experience no BS. Two new builds in 6 SLR using N165 22inch barrels both running 3050fps with 105 RDF's. Just for reference longest string 10 rounds in...
I had my 6XC set up with a 20 inch barrel and a sig 762. It was reasonable to carry and I managed to get 3085 fps with 105s. The barrel lasted 1490 rounds. Good luck with your build!

I have one of the scorpions and two friends are using them as well. I have the all titanium very small and light the sound suppression is less but for varmints its good to go. 16 inch 223 and 20 inch 6xc.

I have 2 of the 3-15's as well as a 5-20HD. I tried the fixed 16 and found it not for me. I have 2 fixed 10's a Leopold and a USO. The SWFA scopes are a great value.
