ChaoticReason Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 Very nice build! May I ask though, is the barrel you have on there a "bull barrel"? What's the advantage of that over a flash hider, comp or brake? I have a lot to learn. I hope you don't mind me picking your brain. ?

Jetdoc Posted May 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 Thanks for the comment CR ! The barrel isn't marketed as a bull.It was a personal decision on my part to use a standard muzzle instead of a comp , brake or flash hider. I wanted to be different. I'm wired that way.

ChaoticReason Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 Thanks Jetfoc, different can be good. Just wanted to see if there was a technical reason you went that way with it. I believe most hunting and competition barrels go that route so they can take more rapid shots and the heat won't affect POI, if I'm not mistaken. I just have a lot to learn and tend to ask when I want to understand. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetdoc Posted May 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 (edited) Went back this morning .... I believe shes settled in. 5 boxes of ammo , a mix of factory and hand loads. Zero issues , functionality was spot on. These were at 100yrds . The steel also was ringing at the 300 line.

sketch Posted May 14, 2017 Report Share Posted May 14, 2017 Jet way to go man ! I have similar smooth concrete benches at my range.. my latest idea is to bring a tie down or ratchet strap so i can load up on the bipod without slipping on the smooth surface. Add the strap semi loose around the end of the bench and take up any slack with the bipod? Hope that makes sense, ill do a picture next time to the range.

Thanks for the idea Sketch....Yes it makes sense. I was thinking of a 2x4 and a few clamps. either way it'll get the job done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetdoc Posted May 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2019 (edited) Well, I know I have the bug. I replaced the scope and charging handle. The Nightforce is great but my eyes were having a difficult time focusing. Heading to Payson tomorrow for some shooting.

Maybe there's something better but I'm having too much fun now to give a dam. 😎 Edited May 24, 2019 by Jetdoc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
