Replacement parts

I have a 12” shovelnose with around 1k on round count. I live in VA and ordered a new barrel before distributors stop selling to VA residents. I was gonna order another full auto advanced BCG.

Should I order the BCG complete or just order bolt, cam pin? Not sure what the life will be just on the carrier.

Black Hills/Bonefrog TMK poor accuracy LMT barrel

I purchased a mix of BH and Bonefrog 77gr TMK and both produced pretty mediocre accuracy results (2-3 moa) out of my 16 inch mrp. Same barrel and my specwar barrel seem to love Federal GMM 77gr SMK, was excited about this ammo and was hoping for similar results. I've read other places online that TMKs can be picky about barrels.

Anyone else had any luck with TMKs? I might just suck at shooting but was supported from the bench with front and rear bags at 100

Hands-on impressions of the new MAR-H .308 Shovelnose SBR?

Curious if anyone has hands-on time with this yet and what your thoughts are. I'm personally torn between it and the MR762A4 SBR.....not looking for a debate between the two since I know this is the LMT group, just wanted to share where I'm at and hear everyone's opinions on the LMT offering.

DWilson URX Conversion Question

I'm thinking of sending in my 13.25 Quad for this service. I know you can specify how large you want the cuts from slot # to slot #. But, if I want to install URX 3.1 panels, I need to know the distance between bolt holes on the panels so that they line up with the existing threaded holes on the handguard. Or, specify if I need new holes threaded.

Can someone tell me the distance between bolt holes on the 4" and 5.5" URX 3.1 panels (center to center)? These are the only two lengths I see on the KAC website. Is there a different length panel?

Thanks!

VKTR piston carrier and LMT

Can anyone confirm whether this works with the LMT piston system? I’d rather buy this and a Centurion Arms V2 bolt for $420ish than LMTs BCG with regular bolt for $420ish.

Is it worth getting a stainless 16” 308 if I already have the same one in chrome lined?

I planned to put all my money for barrels towards 6.5cm, because I don’t have any of those, but seeing that deal on rooftop makes this hard to pass up.

Help me decide on optic

I’m trying to decide on optic for this .308 I just built. Right now I’m thinking either NF nx8 2.5-20 with acro on top or ACOG TA11. I’m open to any other suggestions.

Is this bad

Muzzle Device: AI Nano 1/2 x 28 9mm
Came with my 5cm

Should says not use any washers but is this gap bad or am I good to go?

It won’t screw on anymore and we torqued it.
