That is sharp!
8k of 300 win mag is impressive under any conditions. So hats off to you. It is unfortunately not mine. Belongs to a good friend I train and hunt with, who transferred it through my shop. He has about 300 rds (180gr Winchester, suppressed) through so far, and it only keeps shooting better.

Almost done with a 6.5 Grendel. Aero Precision Texas Edition receivers, Odin Works 18” barrel and bcg, Lancer stock and AP Customs handguard. The Furniture is okay but can’t really say I like it, so I’ll probably change it out.

Yeah, but does it shoot? I was skeptical of the AR-15 chambered in 7.62x39mm, but I wanted to give it a shot (no pun intended). Thankfully, PSA took care of the biggest reliability issues with its complete upper/proprietary BCG:
- bigger gas port
- M4 feed ramps
- extended firing pin
Here is the positive feedback on that complete upper with BCG-- 5.0 out of 5.0 stars based on 130 reviews:

I took care of the final reliability issue with a C Products 10-rounder:
- reliable 7.62x39 STANAG magazine
Here is the positive feedback on that magazine-- 4.8 out of 5.0 stars based on 11 reviews:

I gave this rifle the crummiest test I could think of: steel-cased Wolf ammo. I fired 20 rounds each of 123gr HP and 124gr FMJ (40 rounds total), and had no issues -- no light strikes, no failures to eject (FTE)/failures to feed (FTF), nothing:

I understand that there is some skepticism of the AR15 chambered in this caliber. I honestly think that a lot of those fears are based off of secondhand/older internet rumors, but I get that some of you have gotten burned/learned the hard way.
Guess I've lucked out thus far....
always been concerned about an AR15 chambered in anything other than 556/223... thanks for this thread
