In my opinion it tames it pretty good.

I don't have the FSC30 but I do have both the FSC556 and a BattleComp, I would say based on my experiences with the BC and the 556 version, that the BABC and the FSC30 would be pretty similar from the user POV. They could be vastly different standing to the side of either.
I pretty much agree. I started with a FSC30 before the battlecomp. The recoil is pretty much the same but the big difference is in the blast. With the FSC30 it felt like a little version of my 50bmg, large pressure wave. The battlecomp, while still having a shock wave, wasn't nearly so obnoxious.

Pretty vanilla, really.
Magpul foliage green furniture, TangoDown bipod (I got it for less than half retail), and a Nightforce 2.5-10x32 mildot/zero stop in a Larue mount. Basically set up as a basic precision rifle of sorts. Something more than a DM rifle, something less than a full-fledged sniper rifle.
Haven't had the chance to get many rounds out with it yet since it's on the other side of the planet from me right now. All of the shooting I've done with it has been from the prone, loading into the bipod. I'm able to get follow-up shots pretty quickly, and it's accurate enough that I can tell I'm the limiting factor. Well, me and the ammo. (About 2.5-3" groups at 100m with surplus ammo.)

Haven't had much opportunity to shoot it this spring, but plan on doing a quite a bit since the snow has melted.
Pulsar:
Is that and 18" or 20" barrel you have in your rig?
I think about 9-10 oz. And I don't have another one that I can really compare, but I defiantly would say the balance has changed for the better. I haven't gotten a chance to shoot it yet, but I will do a range report on my new barrel set up.

thanks
Got my MWS 1 week ago, so she'll be playing battle rifle until I can fork for some nice glass.
Added a SF 762SSAL/RE brake, KAC trigger guard, laRue index clips, MIAD, SF scout in an offset LaRue, mcmaster nut mod on the sights, and removed the red/white selector paint

Huskyfever03 ,
very sharp. I like the Larue index clips a lot.
Kinda curious if anyone has the old MWS and the new one? I have one of the new forged uppers with the what looks as if increased surface area around the barrel and the 45 degree deflector cut. Anyone notice a weight difference and have any opinions as to if one is better then the other?
Crappy cell pic. UBR + Slash Car10 Heavy, MIAD,Magpul trigger guard and spare H1 in battle config, until the Nightforce fairy arrives. Cant decide on either the 2.5-10 or the 3.5-15. Then after that I need to decide on velocity ret or mildot. Decisions. F#$%K!
Crappy pic, comfy looking couch.
I have a 3-15 Premier on mine in a Larue mount. It is a beast. It's not too much scope, it is just a lot of scope.

Nice boom stick. I had that image saved from another thread. Whichever I get will ride on a Larue. All you need now is the Barrett Balistic Computer.:)
It was actually determined that it isn't an increase in material around the barrel, it was that the new receivers were forged and they were able to remove some material on the receiver end as the forgings were a bit stronger. They should be ever so slightly lighter. I'd weigh mine but I have a 20" barrel, which is a heavy pig by itself. :eek: Maybe if someone else with a 20" CL barrel and the "older" style receivers could weigh theirs, we can compare.
The earlier receivers were billet, the new ones are forged. Forged receivers are stronger so they don't have to be as thick. What you see as extra material on the barrel mounting section is actually due to less material on the receiver section, making that area appear more pronounced.
Yes, 2.5-10 X24
Got it from Highcalibersales.com last Summer.
Nice boomstick.
My L7 is very similar etc.
How do you like it ?
