Today went with old buddy for an entire day at the Merlin Oregon Range. My Noveske 5.56 10" braced Diplomat is still my go to fighting tool with in 200 or so yards as it has a Colt/ Cmore red dot . The Ruger Charger 9mm was sighted in with the Votex Spitfire, which is perfect at 50 yards and a lot of fun with my Dillon cranked out lead bullets load at that range. Lead RN 124 grain 6 gang mold with 1000 fps load .
The star of the show was the new to me LWRC 6.8 SPC2 piston driven 16 " carbine with Remington 110 ammo and Gen Three Magpul 6.8 Mags. I put an Aimpoint M2 I had banging around because my 1-8 Vortex mount hadn't yet arrived to Mount. I'll keep the Aimpoint which is sighted in , as a back up ,but want the 1-8 Strike Eagle on the 6.8 spc in case it goes hunting. I sighted the 6.8 in at 50 yards , as I do all Ar formats and bench test at 200 yards. It did 8 +- " at 200 but has a 4 moa red dot, so that should work for deer or pigs. Soon to be suppressed ! Everything about the rifle seems perfect, crisp 4.5 # trigger, good reset one hole accuracy at 50 yards off bags, 100 percent function, smooth , not Blasty at all considering, EXCELLENT Iron sights, probably the best I've seen. I paid under $2000 for this rifle with an extra LWRC 5.56 piston upper . A good deal at the end of last crazy year ! I also bought 200 rounds of Remington 6.8 then at $.93 per shot.
