Welcome, John - if you're in Peoria, we're probably only a couple miles apart right now. We need to link up - there's something coming up that you might like...
Good shootin'!!!
I've never had an accuracy issue with Barnes TSX (non-tipped), and the TTSX is a little better at distance. Barnes designed this stuff to be as accurate as Match projectiles from other manufacturers. I've never seen any results that would indicate that it doesn't measure up. My best examples are all in 5.56. 70gr TSX vs Hornady 75gr HPBT Match vs Sierra 77gr SMK. The Hornady 75s are a little more accurate than the Sierra 77s, just ever so slightly, and the 70 TSX hangs right there with both of them.
Be careful if you start handloading these things - they're longer than other projectiles of the same weight. That reduces case capacity, and changes pressures. You wouldn't just toss a 168 TTSX right on top of your favorite recipe for a Sierra 168gr HPBT...
Here's the best example I can show you:
Found reference that he's a 50% owner. I hope his wife isn't the other 50%. If she's not, I'll bet that whomever the other 50% IS will have his a$s out quick.
I'm not disappointed in Recoil - they've been through this before. I think it was Issue #2, that CEO was put out on his a$s, and Ian Harrison took over...
Here's a report on his response to that, from Recoil. They reached out to ask him WTF...

That fucker went on to say that the Clinton AWB worked, because there were only 2 mass shootings during that timeframe...
I'm not going to run out there and sell my Can Cannon - but I wouldn't buy another one, and won't buy a 7.62 version of it. Hopefully, some stand-up company will make some cool devices for it. Fuk, I liked that grappling hook.
SSA-E has a pound less pull, overall. Compares very well with the SSA, though. Just as smooth, breaks similar. However, it's $99 now, $125 regular, and the SSA is way over that. It's well worth it.

I can see that the alignment is off in the pic. The handguard is twisted counterclockwise from the upper, which would cause the rear sight to need more left adjustment. It might be the cellphone pic, but that's what the pic is showing me...
