Can't take the wait- SJAR SLR build thread- IT'S HERE!

Having trouble posting a pic of the handguard but flip through the pics here and it should be easier to picture the mounting setup.

The way it goes together you're pretty much committed to a JP handguard of some kind for the life of the upper but that didn't bother me.
 
60 rounds down range tonight for break in as per JP recommendation.
The rifle liked Federal Fusion 120 Gr more than Hornady ELD Match 123gr.

Only shot two groups and here's the Fusion. I'll be getting higher rings for it as these are just a bit too low.


Mags are very tight to seat and hopefully wear in. I had some failures to lock the bolt back so I will probably drive out my bolt catch pin and take the grinder to it.

Very happy with it so far despite the tight tolerances.

I have an XCR-L in 6.5 Grendel and it really likes the 120 Fusion ammo compared to Hornady 123 AMax.
