Built her myself Bison Armory 18" Recon barrel VLtor Mur1A upper BCM 13" Keymod free float rail (don't usually care for rails, but couldn't resist the 7.2 oz total weight) BCM Bolt carrier LWRC Advanced combat bolt Silencerco SpecWar Brake (waiting on my can, Silencerco SpecWar 7.62) Spikes Lower RRA LPK Giesselle SSA-E Trigger Very happy with the build. It's super lightweight, and incredibly accurate. If you're on the fence about a Bison Armory barrel, you shouldn't be. Get it. Below is my latest group @ 100meters with my hand loads. 110grn Hornady V-Max, H-322 powder.

Nice Chip....I recently bought the Daniel Defense AMBUSH 6.8 and I am hoping to see similar performance to what you're seeing!

I'd say you got her dialed in pretty good! Good lookin rig! I sure love heavy stainless barrels!

I have one of the first generation 6.8s from when they first came out. An AR Barrels 18" recon heavy stainless. Great AR and great shooting gun and have taken some good game with it. But it was heavy! I just changed it out for a Spec II Wilson 16" light weight barrel and man is it lighter. I can't wait to get out and test it out this week.

Out to around 300 yds the 6.8 in simply fantastic. It is the absolute proving platform to demonstrate you don't need a magnum caliber to take game. Lighter weight bullets at moderate velocities are killing machines. I love mine with 120gr SSTs and IMR-8208.

About $850 into the upper. The lower is shared with my .223, and I've got about $375 into that. Good shooting and good looking gun. Thanks Royal
