Savageman25 Posted January 9, 2014 Report Posted January 9, 2014 (edited) So here's my build plan let me know what you guys think. Any suggestions are welcome. Using this purely as a paper puncher at 600-1k or more Mega maten set comes with bolt catch release and takedown/pivot pins. Jp 22" 1-8 twist 6.5 creedmoor supermatch barrel kit s.s. Kit includes Heat sink Enhanced bolt Adjustable gas block low pro Recoil eliminator Troy TRX rail 13.8" Jp lmos Jp 308 silent capture spring Dpms receiver ext buffer tube a1/a2 Magpul prs stock and a monopod Jard 1.5 adjustable trigger Mega grip Bad cass selector Lpk-unsure what to do here Bipod-unsure Scope-not sure yet, been researching a lot though. Let me know if I have screwed up somewhere. Edited February 3, 2014 by Savageman25
EasyEJL Posted January 9, 2014 Report Posted January 9, 2014 "Adjustable gas block high profile" may be a mistake (the high profile part) with the 13.8" rail. its usually a low profile gas block that sits under the handguard instead.this onehttp://www.midwayusa.com/product/363956/syrac-ordnance-click-adjustable-gas-block-ar-15-lr-308-standard-barrel-0750-inside-diameter-low-profile-steel-matteis pretty nice, as the adjustment screw is on the front side so although it may take a longer allen wrench to reach it, you won't have to worry about whether it meets up with some of the ventilation holes, or have to drill the handguard to get to it.
Savageman25 Posted January 9, 2014 Author Report Posted January 9, 2014 Roger that. Lets make that a low pro adjustable gas block.
Savageman25 Posted January 9, 2014 Author Report Posted January 9, 2014 Probably use that gas block in the link you sent me, on the next one I build. The jp gas block comes with the kit so ill try to make due with that one for now.
EasyEJL Posted January 9, 2014 Report Posted January 9, 2014 yeah, I bought a different gas block for my 308 and keep thinking about replacing it with the syrac as I can't reach my adjustment screw without removing my handguard :D
Defellr Posted January 30, 2014 Report Posted January 30, 2014 Have one very similar already built. Noveske barrel, JP hand guard and brake. You're gonna want a rainier arms raptor handle and you won't need the PRS extension. Stonefirearms.com sells a great Maten LPK for cheap too!
Savageman25 Posted January 31, 2014 Author Report Posted January 31, 2014 Thanks Defellr. Are you happy with your rifle?
Defellr Posted February 1, 2014 Report Posted February 1, 2014 Extremely happy! It's recoil is very light thanks to the JP brake and it's scary accurate. Truly a unique rifle. The ambi raptor handle is a must because the mega handle is garbage. getting ahold of the tiny handle with the powerful AR10 buffer spring is a challenge with the scope in the way.
EasyEJL Posted February 1, 2014 Report Posted February 1, 2014 The raptor almost feels like drawing a bow, doesn't it?
Rsquared Posted February 1, 2014 Report Posted February 1, 2014 Me! I love the raptor handles! But I'm one of those guys that I find what I like.....and I roll with it, with everything.
Savageman25 Posted February 2, 2014 Author Report Posted February 2, 2014 Awesome I'll probably, ok, most definitely be getting the raptor handle.
Defellr Posted February 2, 2014 Report Posted February 2, 2014 Throw an atlas bipod and 6x24x50 vortex FFP scope on that bad boy. You'll have yourself one sick little hole puncher.
Robocop1051 Posted February 2, 2014 Report Posted February 2, 2014 TacOps-1.... I'm just sayin' You're building a long range rifle, which means that you'll likely have a large, high power scope as well.
Savageman25 Posted February 3, 2014 Author Report Posted February 3, 2014 That TacOps-1 does seem like a solid piece. I'm looking into it more and more.
Savageman25 Posted February 3, 2014 Author Report Posted February 3, 2014 Thoughts on this scope. http://www.midwayusa.com/product/2420551487/vortex-viper-pst-rifle-scope-30mm-tube-6-24x-50mm-side-focus-1-10-mil-adjustments-first-focal-illuminated-matte?cm_vc=subv12420551487
planeflyer21 Posted February 3, 2014 Report Posted February 3, 2014 I have that scope in 4-16x50mm, FFP, and MOA clicks. I like it better than my 1st Gen Leupold Longrange Tactical. Clarity is just as good but with FFP and an illuminated ranging reticle, adjustable low enough to be used with night vision. Tested the reticle out in the darkest room we have at night…took several minutes before my eyes adjusted to see the reticle at the 3 and 2 settings. An unconditional lifetime warranty that I haven't had to test. Go for it! I must say though, I got mine through Camera Land in NYC, opened but never mounted and still fully warrantied, for $753 shipped.
Savageman25 Posted February 3, 2014 Author Report Posted February 3, 2014 Ya, I have been going back and forth on converting to mils, but I think I might just stick with Mao. Just keeps things simpler since I already use moa. And I definitely will shop around for the best price. Midway has been upsetting me with there shipping charges.
planeflyer21 Posted February 3, 2014 Report Posted February 3, 2014 Manufacturing has a long, L O N G way to go before they can make enough sights and scopes to outnumber 120 years of making MOA sights/scopes. But it never hurts to learn something new!
Savageman25 Posted March 4, 2014 Author Report Posted March 4, 2014 This build has been put on hold, due to law, imposed upon by the high and mighty wife of the house. I can't stand it. It might take me a year, but it will get built.
Savageman25 Posted April 10, 2015 Author Report Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) It's a slow process but it's progress none the less. What's on it Mega maten set Jp 6.5 creedmoor 22"barrel Jp enhanced bolt Jp lmos carrier Trx alpha rail 13.8" Prs stock Aadmount What's next to get Kns anti rotate pins Timney ar10 trigger Mega emblem hogue grip Bad cass selector Syrac ord. gen 2 adjustable gas block and a gas tube Jp Silent captured buffer spring Mag catch Gg and g bipod Glass will eventually be a a bushnell elite tactical ers 3.5x21 , but in the short term I'm going to put a vortex viper pst ffp 6x24 ebr2 on it. After I finish this build I'm building a Grendel and that gun will wear the vortex and the creedmoor will wear the bushnell. Edited April 10, 2015 by Savageman25
MikedaddyH Posted April 10, 2015 Report Posted April 10, 2015 This will be a nice build BUT tuning it may not be fun ! You have a lot of "Trick" parts on it along with the high dollar parts. Good Luck !
Savageman25 Posted April 11, 2015 Author Report Posted April 11, 2015 Thanks guys, only thing I might change is the syrac to a slr sentry s9 gas block. Either one will be solid.
