I appreciate your understanding of my response. You're a gentleman for sure. The must was intended for the sub moa party, but I can see your point. I'll edit that for future viewers. If the day comes at my range where I can hold a ten inch group at 750 yds in real world conditions with this rifle, I will definitely consider the build a success. May I ask, out of curiosity, what type of stocks you prefer and why? I'm pretty flexible with stocks, I'm still searching for the right one for me. In the process, I am accumulating quite the collection. The particular adjustable stock will be my first fully adjustable stock outside of the military, and those were on a chassis for bolt rifles. None have felt natural as of yet.

I'm with you on the obnoxiously heavy Burris, I have several other optics that are much much lighter as well. Now, two things, I never said loaded, and I'm not capable of 1/2 minute at those ranges. No part of that quote says I guaranteed 1/2 moa capabilities. I am however fundamentally sound enough to maintain control of my timing and body to shoot under 1moa. This means for the rifle to be more accurate, the above statement applies. I know this comes off as more dick-holey than I intend but try not to add words to my post that don't exist. Though I'm not a long time member of this particular forum, I have a great experience and understanding with forums in general and have zero interest in having my post derailed over silly things like you suggesting that I said I guarantee I'm accurate of 1/2 moa. I hope you understand what I mean, I'm not trying to start an argument here

Okay ladies and gents, I'm starting a thread to chronicle my build and seek advice in areas I'm undecided on. I've shifted gears a touch on my build and decided that I'll focus on a lightweight specific build after I've become more familiar with the building and tuning of the rifle. That said, I'm building a rifle that will be a breeze to carry while hunting and capable of performing better than I can at the range. This means it absolutely must hold sub moa out to a range of 750-ish yds and in the area of 7lbs/10lbs scoped depending on configuration. I'll have two scopes for it, an eotech and a Burris Eliminator 3. I'll also have a fully adjustable stock and a minimalist stock. These are to be swapped out depending on the intended use of the rifle at the time. Below is a list of parts for my build. Money is not an issue and I intend to save weight where possible to help keep the rifle relatively light but function is definitely the number one priority. Items on the list preceded by * are up for negotiation. Any constructive criticism or helpful advice is welcome. receiver set- nlx 308 matched set (purchased) hand guard- JL billet (purchased) receiver extension- Vseven carbine (purchased) buffer- JP silent captured spring (purchased) *stock- Undecided BCG-NLX 308 (purchased) barrel-proof research 16" *muzzle device-undecided (titanium) grip-strike industries (purchased) misc. lower parts-Vseven (purchased) *trigger-undecided charging handle-Vseven (purchased) gas block-srs titanium adjustable block If you see any major oversights, please bring them to my attention as well, thank you.

Survival shop, that's exactly the information I was looking for. Thanks a ton for taking the time to weigh them. I'm not concerned about anything with that small of a difference. That effectively puts the issue to bed in my eyes. Chuck

In my opinion it's the perfect option for me combining as much weight savings as possible while maintaining as much "heavy barrel" characteristics as possible in a 16" barrel. That's another example where function takes the edge in priority over weight in my build.

It's definitely not a major concern. Just one of those cliché ounces make pounds things. I'm already going with titanium everywhere possible, homemade carbon fiber handguard, and proof research barrel. I have the weight saved where it counts already. I'm to the point where if I can find several high quality trigger groups, I might be swayed in one direction based on the weight. I ultimately won't sacrifice function in lieu of weight though, I'm extremely happy with how the final product is coming together.

Hey everyone, I am curious if anyone has any info on weights of various trigger groups. My questions are mostly regarding the weight (not pull weight) of various drop ins and standard for my light weight build. I assume the drop in triggers tend to be a little heavier but have no real knowledge to back it up and the only weight manufacturers seem to care about is pull weight. I'm not about to spring for the trigger just yet but figured a little research wouldn't hurt. Thanks in advance

Hahahaha, thanks fellas. Where is everyone from in Wisconsin? I'm a native 'scahnsinite. Born in Janesville, raised in Montana, moved to Green Bay for school after getting enough of big Army, then moved back to Montana a year and a half ago to ditch the ex. (Being right all of the time isn't conducive to a successful marriage. Especially when she's always wrong.) ?

Hey everyone, I'm newly registered on the forum and look forward to visiting with most of you. A few things about me: -I'm working on a 6-6.5lb lightweight build that I may be seeking advice on. -I take pleasure in belittling people that don't agree with my decisions because I'm always right. -I offer too much misleading advice focused solely on justifying my own questionable decisions and decision making processes. -I'm pretty much the best there is. -I'm full of $h!t most of the time. (Obviously) In honesty, I hope I can contribute to the conversations in a meaningful and entertaining way and expect to learn a great deal of various quality information here. Thanks for the warm welcome. ?
