XCR from Nate got here this week. Had a Vortex Venom sitting around that wasn't being used, so I found a riser for it and slapped it on. It was off by a country mile when I went to zero, but I got it dialed in and it shot great. DD 32 round mags work great. They insert fine with all 32 rounds in even on a closed bolt. Shot Hornady Steel Match and PPU 75 Grain Match through it. 50 of each. No malfunctions.

Very nice....really starting to like the competition model uppers.

 

So here is a pic of my XCR-M in 308, while my 6.5 barrel is on order. Mounting the SWR Radius would have worked out better on a competition length upper, but this is what I have and works out well for my needs. Now I always take flack for the scope being so far forward, so before people jump on it, this weaver tactical has 4.5' inches of eye relief it has to be that far forward for me =)

Nice. Have to ask, what's the total weight on that package?

 

And a follow up with the L's less some other barrels. I have one upper scoped for some distance and hunting, the other for training, close in and range fun.

That cabela's covenant is a surprising scope for the money, 4-16 FFP in MOA Christmas tree type reticle, great for multi-cal and knowing your loads. So tired of BDC BS.

 

Very nice......

 

My micro freshly back from getting the latest updates at the mother ship. New bolt carrier, bolt, gas block, and gas deflector along with some chamber work. Shot 100-rds through it last weekend without an issue. Interestingly, all rounds were suppressed and it cycled perfectly on the "0" gas setting. Had to call and confirm with Alex that "0" was just the lowest setting and not suppose to be total gas shutoff like I thought was the case. He confirmed "0" still allowed gas through and there is no complete gas shutoff. Either way, very happy with what was previously a very problematic rifle.

 

Hmmm....so no complete cut off on zero like the older models. That kinda sucks. Not a lot, but it was a cool feature.

 

Speaking of the Radius... they must not be selling many of these or this is merely a way to blow out soon to be discontinued product/model. From over $900 to $400, and from Brownells... infamous for overcharging. The nerd in me wants it, but I know for 110% that I don't need it.

Radius Rail Mounted Rangefinder : SILENCERCO RADIUS RAIL-MOUNTED RANGEFINDER | Brownells

 

Oh it was discontinued, they advertised as special for a few days at Brownells and Optics Planet. Everyone got excited, including myself because there were 1400 Canadian. I bought one, after shipping, currency conversion and duties it was still half price for me. Then within just a few days, it was silently discontinued.

Few days after that, and it started showing as a discontinued product on Optics Planet. Had to reach out to some Canadian dealers that were trying to order stock and had no idea. They pulled listings after getting it confirmed.

 

Just the way I like it

Anybody got pics of a really used and abused XCR? like really put it through its paces?

 

Who wants to admit to being negligent to their $2K guchi rifle?

 

My new XCR-L pistol in 6.5 Grendel with an 11 inch barrel. I LOVE the Midnight Bronze color RA suggested to me while I was deciding on what color I wanted. Turned out even better than I had hoped. Have to wait till tomorrow to get it out of background check purgatory which is 4 days presently here in Colorado.

 

necro 15yr old thread

Just finished this tiger stripe vinyl over my winter paint job. It turned out pretty good. A lot of work, went through about 6 razor blades and it took about 9 hours including the MAWL (not pictured). Made a 1 piece template for the upper and Elcan, 4 piece for the lower. I wanted to keep my winter paint scheme but this adhesive is so aggressive I have a feeling it's all coming off if I decide to peel it this fall. Curious to see how the vinyl holds up to some larping innawoods. Magazine was from another rolls' scraps, the light green is noticeably brighter so I might wrap it from the roll I used on the receiver.

 

Looks amazing!

 

What an awesome looking rifle, that is always been my favorite camo. Is mine next?

 

Though I got love for black multicam too, tiger stripe is the undefeated king of camo. Great job man.

 

Here's my 12in XCRs L and M

Optics change to EXPS/G43 and Peq15 on the L for NV

 

What a soft shooter. Cycles on gas setting 3
Now begins the data collection

 

I really like the mini M

 

I really LOVE where you live! The M ain't bad either though!

 

This was a cool spot

 

Beautiful, thanks for sharing!
