    CMT 308 is Ready

    First off, BIG thanks to Uwone for the help with the barrel!

    Finally got this head spaced and torqued yesterday. Though, grabbing everything for the pic I realized I haven't picked up a mag yet... Doh!
    I'll be grabbing a mag from my LGS and some ammo. Will be shooting it this weekend sans optic. That's the next buy. Just waiting on some funds. Shouldn't be much longer.

    Do also still need to pick up another ABCr, sorry Roger, my M&P has been eating all my money with ammo and range time.

    Flickr isn't working. Lets see if this does.

    That looks fantastic.

    I was on the cusp of building one just like that before everything kinda went to chaos and I had to wait.

    I am definitely looking forward to a range report.

    Rainier 16" middy. (again, thanks Uwone).

    Weight, unsure. I don't a good scale but I can try. It's lighter than the 556 SPR I just put together.

    You'll probably want to double up if you're under a roof. Even a flash hider on a 16" .308 is concussive. :)

    I'm digging all the fde lately and that thing looks great. I'll bet it's a bit violent with that 16" barrel..

    I'd like to do about the same , maybe a 18" .

    Yeah, I keep hearing that with the 308 & 16" barrel... LOL
    CMT has their forward blast device for 30cal. Perhaps after this weekend I'll want to look at it.

    Especially with that 3 port brake.

    I was on the line next to a Lantac Dragon last weekend, and the guy's first shot blew my hat off my head, and after that, I was getting showered with paint flakes coming off one of the support columns nearby

    Then there was the guy with the FAL and his 3-port brake doing some 50 yard plinking when I shot in May. Talk about ringing your bell after a couple mags.

    I'll be interested to hear how the gas system works for you. The 16" 308 that I had all the gas issues with was a RA barrel, so hopefully you won't have the same issue. If you do, at least I can give you a recommendation on a band-aid fix.
