if i remember correctly, that's actually the "proper" way of installing them. i think tradition has had everyone installing them the other way.
 
Re: my 300 win mag finshed

The outlet plugs are installed correctly. They are installed that was because if you were to put a metal face plate on them and it was to slide down, it would only hit the ground and not the hot and short out.
Good observation.

Insite - get out and shoot that thing...let's see the range report. Stretch it out a little.

Otherwise, nice looking rig.
 
Re: my 300 win mag finshed

Very cool!. Plus 1 on shooting it.

yea the case is a little heavy but i only use it for storage at home and for long transport in the truck other wise i use my drag bag
 
Re: my 300 win mag finshed

It look's good to me , I would probably not put that forgrip on it but I have never used one ether so I cant say that I would not like it , just saying you asked If I would do anything different and thats about it .

Oh and Uso glass but I am a fan boy LOL .

I am looking forward to a range report from you , nice stick .
 
Re: my 300 win mag finshed

As long as it shoots the only things I would change is a FFP scope and remove that grip for offhand shots. Lets be real that rig is heavy as sin with a 30" barrel and an offhand shot with it would be pointless.

What is the total rig weight btw?

Good luck,
Merritt

There is this new invention some of the guys on here may have heard about it. It is called “the screw”. Apparently it holds stuff to other things by mechanical means. So if you use this “the screw” your metal plate will not fall and short out.

i actually talked to my electrician buddy about this yesterday. the one i remember years ago telling me that the ground is supposed to be on top. he does commercial work and almost all his work is hospitals. i guess the ground on top is a hospital spec. he thinks it was nec a long time ago. he doesn't think nec specifies which way the ground should be on an outlet anymore, as far as he knows. i didn't ask him to go digging through the book though.

I am just giving you grief. It should be on top for the ground reason but I have mine the other way so it wedges the cord into the jack.
 
Re: my 300 win mag finshed

Nice rig! I had to take a double take at it because at first I didn't see the bolt handle and didn't think there was an AR platform that supported 300WM! I agree that the front grip is no good and pointless, as it must be like shouldering up a 50cal, weight wise. That's a fairly tight group. I assume you were shooting factory ammo, or was it just a "quicky" reload? Reloads should help tighten that up I reckon. When I first saw the group, I thought that's not bad for a gas gun, but like I said, I had to look again when the 300WM part sunk in. It's still sub MOA by all accounts, so apparently you did it right. Good job overall.
