I took my XCR to the range for the second time today, and put 200 rounds through it, bringing the total round count to 340. I still haven't seen anything resembling good accuracy; but then again I was shooting Q3131 and using Troy sights with the big aperature.
Only problem, the nut on the top of the stock came loose, and that caused the stock to get loose and rattle some. Luckily I brought my wrench set and tightened it right up. I had been meaning to tighten it a little anyway.
For the last 40 rounds (after the 300 round mark passed) I turned down the gas... I started on 1, and got one failure to lock back in a few rounds. So, I left it on 2 and all was good. I am still not seeing the nice soft recoil that most of you are talking about.. I'd still say its recoiling more than the average AR. It did toss the brass about half as far as it did on 4.
Next up, I'll be trying some handloads in it.
