  • Going over my AR10 chambered in .308. Misspoke regarding scope- should clarify that this scope is MOA, not MRAD, as my drop chart shows. Best groups of .51 MOA are 5 shot groups with Federal Gold Medal SMK 168gr .308, average group size with the same ammo tends to be .65 MOA.

    Starting to get recommended a bunch of gun channels from AZ (assuming from your hat). I love seeing other people from my state. Seems like the entire industry is moving here.

    Dude thanks for posting. Definitely going to get the reptilia mount. I’m running an arken scope and had a hard time finding a 12 o’clock mount because arken also has such talk turrets. I couldn’t even run an angled red dot either.
    I’m also running that trigger. For the money you can’t go wrong.

      Reptilia masked awesome stuff, but I’m glad PMM saw the gap in the market for a lighter 12 o’clock RMR mount.
      Larue is where it’s at!

    I carry a foot stocking in my magpul grip. Stretch it over the end and onto the turret. Cheap kill flash. I run the Larue MBT straight bow trigger on most of my guns. Nice build.

    The aero enhanced line is probably the best designed receiver. The way the barrel nut goes inside the receiver instead of over the top like other receiver. Had a buddy bring out his SR25 so I could shoot them side by side to see if I wanted to upgrade to a knights. My aero with a hybrid .308 criterion barrel had FAR better accuracy and precision that the SR25. Granted it could have been gun preference to the bullet. But yeah, a good barrel on the enhanced line will get you pretty far.

      Have you ever had trouble with the barrel nut getting loose? Thats the only problem with the E design

    Excellent build man. Thanks for posting this. I’m basically building this same setup, but with a rifle speed adjustable gas block. Just can’t decide between 308 and 6.5.

    Nice video. Sweet build. Loving the paint job bro. Have you found the Odinworks adjustable gas block to get carbon locked after prolonged use?

    • @SonoranSteel
      @SonoranSteel  Před 3 měsíci

      Thank you. I haven’t had any issues with the Odin AGB, but I don’t have too many rounds through this rifle (250 max) and I don’t shoot it for prolonged periods of time.

    what grain weight does your criterion barrel generally like best?

    Nice setup! Just wondering if you tried flipping your monopod around?

    • @SonoranSteel
      @SonoranSteel  Před 2 měsíci +1

      To keep it folded? I did, and I had the same problem. I also wanted to have it positioned the way it is because under recoil, the monopod would be pushed into its standing position rather than being pushed to its folded position. If my thumb happened to be over the button, I don’t want the monopod accidentally folding under recoil.
