Blackfeather Functional Testing / Initial Range Report *BIG PICS*

[geclark]

Where did you get the Troy battle rail from?

I got it from target sports in Gormley - mind you that was in late '11. I'd been looking for one for a while, and I called and asked to be put on a list, and two days later a pair showed up. I regret only having the cash to pick up one.

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound insulting.

Now I am clear on where the group actually is.

O.k Theres hope

Great looking rifle too

Thanks!

Yeah - I probably should have circled them. Between the zeroing hits and the holes that came in the box it looks like a hot mess.

So did the troy battle rail go on without any mods to it ?

Yep - I initially made things more complicated than they needed to be, but I didn't make any mods to the battle rail or Blackfeather to mount it up in the end.

Do you feel like you need a cheek rest on the stock with your current optic setup?

Used on the EE. Guy was selling three of them, and I got in touch 5 mins after his post and got the only one left. :/

Can't wait to see what your results are at 100! I'm also curious on your sight set up and how it will hold zero. Please keep us informed.

Thanks!

Man when was this? I like camp out the parts forum, maybe he has some left? Did you pay like $200+ for it?

So what was the total cost for the stock and bits with battle rail?

Yeah - $215 with shipping in (Feb 28th). They're MSRP in the states is only like $145 USD, but since they seem to be unobtanium I didn't spend too long thinking about it.

Blackfeather $600, Battle rail ~$300, Troy Micro BUIS ~$250, Emod & Tube ~$150.

I can't afford to continue adding this stuff up, I'll only look at one number at a time...

 

[rethius]

SEI Brakes do frequent the EE. I got mine off a guy from BC who brings them up. I tried every means possible to import one legally on my own to no success. Pay the extra $50 or so bucks and enjoy. the SEI brakes are shorter than the Springfield brake and flash protector... and do a lot for your recoil.

One of the best accessories for the M305 IMO.

 

[Uncle Tom]

SEI brakes can be baught directly from Brownells.

Your a lifesaver
Just showed this to the wife and proved to her I could be so much worse than I already am
Nice gun, and worth every cent

I didn't think it would be possible to be jealous of my own rifle stock, but there it is... .
