AR wrapped up and range report

[shadco]

I finished tweaking my RRA Tactical CAR-A4.

I got it out to the range today for sighting in the irons, and Eotech.

I started out at 25 yds it took about 20 rds to get the irons dialed in and another 15 to get the Eotech dialed.

Then it was on to 50 and I had to run about 10 rds to get the elevation dialed with the Eo. I made a slight elevation adjustment to lolipop the front iron and it was good to go, the irons were dead on too.

The rest of the day was spent punching the centers out of targets at 50 and 100 yds.

I ran 150 rds of .223 Black Hills 75gr MHP thru it and finished up with 10 rds of Fiocchi 62 gr FMJ and 30 rds of 5.56 M855 Ball to just to test how well other ammo would run thru it. No malfs or weird behaviors.

I got home and spent some quality time cleaning it up, I ran it pretty wet with Militec and I was surprised how easily it cleaned up.

I've added a DD 10" Lite Rail, DD Low profile gas block, Troy frt folding sight, Black buffer, 5 coil spring and crane oring to the bolt. I (Gotm4 actually) also properly staked the gas carrier key, and I added some XTM panels. I finished it up with a Vltor Emod stock.

Is this one of the SS barrels, chrome lined, or other?

I like the layout.

I have a RRA Tactical CAR A4 with SS barrel (16") and it's bright SS. shadco's might be the chrome-lined, but not SS.

It's a very nice rifle. I went with the YHM lightweight freefloat rail on my RRA platform, but I like shadco's a lot--looks like a DD job--sharp.

Nice rifle shadco.

Other, basic Wilson Chrome moly barrel, 1-9 twist, no chrome.

It's a tack driver though.

Thanks guys I like it a lot. One of these days, when and if the market settles out I will replace the barrel with a lighter one chrome lined with a 1-7 twist. I don't have issues taking care of a non chrome lined barrel.

A few minor refinements have occured.
