Aero Precision has a monthly contest where they give away a rifle to a luck winner. I was the lucky guy for the month of September. My Prize? The rifle below. An Aero Precision M5E1 in Burn Bronze. This rifle came with an 18” barrel 1-10 twist. VG6 Precision muzzle brake, B5 grip and stock.

I never ran any B5 furniture before. I’m impressed. I like. The only thing I would change is if the stock had a “locking” device like magpul stocks. The grip is nice. I like the angle. I ended up putting a Leopold MK4 3.5-10 scope on top temporarily. It’s a good scope but I want something longer. It loses something at ranges beyond 100 for my 40 yr. old laser corrected eyes.
The first mods I did pretty much the instant I got home was add a Gunfighter charging handle, STS 60 degree safety. I also dropped in a SSA-E

So far I like the rifle. I have put 60 rounds threw it so far. Looking forward to spending more time behind it. The best group I shot with 168g Fiocchi ammo was 1.7” group according to on target. I need to get my grubby little hands on some Gold Medal Match, some CorBon and some Guerilla ammo to try out. Maybe some black hills as well.
I like it. Thank you again Aero Precision.
