MtnMike Posted January 28, 2022 Report Posted January 28, 2022 (edited) I promise I'll work on improving my photo skills. That's a quick snap w/ the phone and things got resized and cropped. Can't let the wife seeing me taking porn pics. Then she'd might realize there is a new black gun in the house! Edited January 28, 2022 by MtnMike

shooterrex Posted January 28, 2022 Report Posted January 28, 2022 Those 180 gr soft points may not have grouped well because the soft points tend to deform on the feed ramps. FMJ or polymer tipped rounds seem to do a lot better in these guns than soft points.
MtnMike Posted February 10, 2022 Report Posted February 10, 2022 2nd trip to range with new Windham was a mixed bag. Mostly positive. Another 100 rounds. Zero malfunctions. Upgraded trigger - LaRue MST 2 stage - big improvement, very nice trigger. Precision Armament Severe Duty - muzzle brake - works as advertised. Daniel Defense enhanced stock - meh. Felt a bit short so will switch out butt pads w/ thicker one (shown in photo) that came with it for next time. Groups were not near as tight at 100 yards as 1st trip. 2-3 MOA. Not sure if it was Serbian ammo, wind or just me. Rifle has already shown it is capable of better. Plan to take some 1st class ammo with me the next time and the shooting sled or bipod to really dial it in. Still plenty of time before hunting season.
Belt Fed Posted February 10, 2022 Report Posted February 10, 2022 Very nice looking rifle. you done good.
MtnMike Posted February 16, 2022 Report Posted February 16, 2022 Final tweaks complete. Totally rigged for hunting, including 10 round Pmag - everything but the bullets. I'll call it 9#.
Belt Fed Posted February 16, 2022 Report Posted February 16, 2022 Nice, You going to hunt deer with it? I used to use a 10 round mag but my 400 yard walk to stand with multiple bears, Wild Hogs and yotes i keep a 20 round full now ,l,
Belt Fed Posted February 16, 2022 Report Posted February 16, 2022 Also i don't know how far you walk to a stand but if any distance a weapon light is great to have.
MtnMike Posted March 9, 2022 Report Posted March 9, 2022 Yes. Primary purpose is for hunting deer and I'd like to try hogs. Secondarily, to keep Zombies in check. Mainly hunt in SC and VA. Some pigs reported in SC area, but I've never seen them while hunting. VA is land where I grew up and I'm pretty comfortable walking around there in pitch black. I did get an adapter for a small 1600 lumen Fenix light I have https://www.fenix-store.com/fenix-alg-00-flashlight-ring/ but I've never messed with the adapter. Mainly use the light to find dog poop in the leaves in the dark and small springs and pins that I always drop. I think the adapter is basically for a picatinny rail and I think I'd want to mount it beneath the barrel. Not sure what would be a good light option for an AR w/ an MLOK hand-guard.
MtnMike Posted March 10, 2022 Report Posted March 10, 2022 (edited) This sight makes me spend $ like no other. Just popped for some various MLOK/Picatinny pieces so I can mount the flashlight. $20 here, $200 there, next thing you know you've got a $2000 project and need to go to the range (in the dark!)

MtnMike Posted March 11, 2022 Report Posted March 11, 2022 Neat little flashlight holder from Fenix. Mounts onto a picatinny. Squeeze latch to mount or remove without any tools. Son-in-law whose is in LE got me onto the Fenix USB-C rechargeable flashlights. The mount is about a $15-20 accessory as I recall. Lots of coupon codes floating around for the company.

Cunuckgaucho Posted March 11, 2022 Report Posted March 11, 2022 Nice little mount Pretty much all my flashlights are now USB or magnetic rechargeable. So much more convenient.

Savage11006 Posted April 16, 2022 Report Posted April 16, 2022 (edited) Nice gun! Have to admit I'm a little jelly of that work bench set up. Edited April 16, 2022 by Savage11006 Spelling
Boot_Scraper Posted April 16, 2022 Report Posted April 16, 2022 My latest "308AR". A Wilson Combat 16" in 300 Ham'r. Sweet little shooter for sure. Can't wait to haul it in the woods this fall.
98Z5V Posted April 16, 2022 Report Posted April 16, 2022 @Black_Sheep, that's a very solid build list, man. Very well done.

Thanks, I mix it up a little with different furniture and barrel lengths, but the foundation of the gun has kind of become my default build. Pretty boring, but it works...
