What’s on the dust cover? Can we see a close up?
Hi, my name is Mark and I'm a gun-whore.
That's very nice Shaun. Is it yours?

There are only two types of people in this world, those who want to control others, and those who have no such desire. The former is the enemy of humanity.
Stand together. Stand strong. Don't give them an inch for they will take a mile.
No, this is Matt's, works in the back end of the shop here. Mine's the shiny one that Adriel (The Hunter Gear Guy) is using for review.
Shiny indeed.

So I've got a few hundred rds through mine and finally got around to doing some accuracy testing while trying to find a good "mid range" load for it.
Rifle has a lilja 1in7" 18.6" barrel profiled to match a Faxon gunner(pretty damn light, most would call it a pencil barrel).
Top left: Berger 77gr OTM Tactical, 23.5gr IMR 8208 XBR, LC Brass, CCI 450 Primer
Top Right: 77gr Berger OTM Tactical 23.5gr Varget, LC Brass, CCI 450 Primer
Bottom Left: Hornany Frontier 55gr FMJBT
Bottom Right: 69gr SMK, 25.0gr Varget, LC Brass, CCI 450 Primer
On the top right target I shot the first 4 rounds that fell into 0.51" and then had to break position to take a call(I know, timing right) and the 5th shot opened it up to 1.25".
I apparently need to look into my process for loading my "blaster" 55gr loads after this test:
Left: Hornady Frontier 55gr FMJBT
Middle: Hornady 55gr FMJBT (same bullet as Frontier), 24.7gr H335, Mixed Brass, CCI 450
Right: Same as above
With the exception of you using CCI No. 450 instead of 400s, you and I have the exact same 5.56 loads.
It's a cool handguard if you like your rifle weighing 800 lbs
Which one?
