Anyone have one? Mine is an 11" 5.56 and I'm having some accuracy issues. If you've shot groups with yours, please share. It's not terrible with the stock hand guard, about 2-3 moa, but with an HBI handguard I am getting up to 6-8 MOA. This is with 75 bthp hand loads that shoot about moa in every other gun I own. It is very sensitive to torque on the handguard screws, which hold the whole gun together. With mine if I go above 35 in/lb the receiver binds up enough to cause the bolt to not go forward into battery without help. The torque spec from HBI is 45 in/lb. Just curious what others experiences are.

A friend has the same model (cal & bbl length). He removed the barrel for a reason I don’t recall and the POI had a big change afterwards (more than he expected anyway). He swears it doesn’t group as well as it did prior to the barrel being taken out and put back in. He never mentioned any issues with the torque or function afterwards.
 
11" 5.56 here too, with 10.8" HBI handguard. Big POI shift going to 10.8" HG, but accuracy with IMI M855 seemed good, however I didn't shoot groups.
