Precision Rifle - 6.5cm Updates

Fitty ACTUAL — Mon, 21 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Hey guys, welcome back to the channel. In this video, we're going to go over my first precision rifle build: 6.5 Creedmoor.
Before we dive in, if you like my content on YouTube or Facebook, head over to ballistic.com and pick up some of that 50% merch.
The first update is that I finally got my SureFire SOCOM300-SPS suppressor approved. It will be the can for most of my .30-cal rifles and pistols. The second update is that large attachment on the rifle: the Accuracy Solutions BipodeXt. With only one arm, setup for prone takes extra work, so I will use the BipodeXt for prone in the future. For now, I will explain the design.
The concept is a simple machine—a lever—with a fulcrum, an input, and an output. Treat the lever as the point of aim, or bore axis. The fulcrum is the bipod. The input is the shooter; the output is the result of aiming adjustments. The closer the fulcrum is to the shooter, the more movement you see at the muzzle. The farther the fulcrum is from the shooter, the less movement you get.
Traditional stocks and handguards give you little room to place a bipod. Most attach to a sling swivel or the forward end of the handguard. The BipodeXt mounts to the stock or handguard and uses a three-piece telescoping tube to push the fulcrum past the muzzle. That reduces the reticle movement you see for the same adjustment at the shoulder. Carbon-fiber construction keeps the added weight modest, depending on the bipod.
I was not shooting prone on this trip, and the BipodeXt would not fit the benches, so I used an Accu-Tac HD-50 on the SLR Rifleworks Solo ultralight rail. Like most people, I had trouble finding a solid position. That matters more for me: one arm has to hold the rifle, make adjustments, aim, and fire. I do not have a support hand on the stock, so I use the rear monopod for small corrections. Once the reticle is close, I shift to other setup work.
Here I am adjusting parallax, or focus. Fine clicks on this knob were awkward, so I passed the focus point, came back to it, then checked parallax by moving my head side to side. The reticle should stay on the point of aim. If the target walks off center, the image plane and the reticle plane are not coincident. I will cover this in a dedicated parallax video. In groups and forums, some accuracy problems are simply uncorrected parallax. Focus the reticle with the eyepiece first. After you set magnification, adjust parallax. Skip that step and you invite misses, opened groups, and flyers.
After I am set up, the first groups are poor because of the frustration of getting into position. You can feel the air. After I settle, the groups tighten. Then fatigue sets in and they open again.
Overall, I think I have a solid sub-MOA rifle. A two-handed shooter would almost certainly print smaller groups. In an upcoming video I will measure how much the suppressor shifts point of impact, and I will take the rifle to 400 yards to see whether group size holds.
YouTube monetization puts gun channels in the lowest tier. Policy changes have made it even harder to earn from free-to-watch videos. I partnered with Ballistic Inc. on shirts, hoodies, and hats with my designs: logo merch, founding-father quotes, Smedley Butler, Doc Holliday from Tombstone, the veterans-exempt flag, DECK Project, “ammosexual,” “All Out of Bubblegum,” Big Igloo 2020, plus ongoing gun and aviation sets. Buying merch is the best way to keep this content going; otherwise it is hard to justify production versus paid client work.

Precision Rifle - .224 Valkrye Build Overview

Fitty ACTUAL — Sun, 20 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT

I am adding another caliber to the precision rifle series: .224 Valkyrie. Here are the parts.
The receiver set is an Aero Precision M4E1. I like these for a few reasons. They are forged, with a billet look, at a forged price. The bolt-catch and forward-assist pins are threaded. With one arm, I do not need someone else to punch roll pins.
The internals are from JP Enterprises. This is my third JP bolt carrier group, their ultralight aluminum carrier. A carrier this light needs an adjustable gas block. Tune the system so only enough gas comes back to eject and feed. If you overgas an aluminum carrier, wear climbs and service life drops.
The trigger is a JP Fire Trigger kit with the roller shoe. Full install and adjustment are in the 6.5 Creedmoor Part 1 video.
The pistol grip is a discontinued Strike Industries model. I bought extras while they were available. Dimples on both sides accept a finger bump so only the center of the trigger-finger pad meets the trigger. That matters when I shoot with one arm. Anything that reduces wasted motion leaves more attention for the hold and the aim.
The stock is a Magpul PRS Gen 2 I bought from a friend. I still prefer it to the Gen 3 because the monopod interface is flat, not angled. Inside are a flat-wire buffer spring and a CTS Engineering active recoil buffer.
Left-side controls are Forward Controls Design: an extended bolt catch and an ambidextrous magazine release. The catch stands far enough out that you can lock the bolt without hitting the ambi mag button. It is a strong pairing.
Up front is a 17-inch Odin Works Ragna handguard. I like the cutouts and the weight. Seventeen inches lets me put the bipod at the muzzle end for more leverage and finer aiming inputs.
The barrel is a 20-inch Tactical Kinetics .224 Valkyrie. On the muzzle is a SureFire three-prong flash hider that also serves as a suppressor QD mount. That choice is one of the accuracy details I have been posting about on Instagram and Facebook.
The gas block is an SLR Rifleworks Sentry adjustable unit. I use these on almost every build. Being able to tune for the rifle and the load matters, and their machining is consistent.
The optic is a Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5–25×. The bipod is an Atlas on an American Defense QD mount, itself on a Kinetic Development Group M-Lok QD section so the whole setup moves from rifle to rifle.
That is the Valkyrie build. Like and share if this was useful. Merch is at ballisticink.com under Fitty Actual. Patreon is linked as well.

AR Precision Rifle Stock Comparison

Fitty ACTUAL — Sat, 19 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT

In this video we compare AR precision rifle stocks. First, what that means. A standard rifle stock has little or no adjustment. A precision stock usually offers three or more: length of pull, cheek or comb height, and butt-pad height and angle. Some add a monopod mount. The point is to get behind the rifle quickly, lock in eye relief, and repeat the same position. In precision shooting, consistency is the work.
These are not every stock on the market. I chose four you see often and two you see less.
Start with the Magpul PRS Gen 2 and Gen 3. Both have comb height, length of pull, and a monopod interface. They differ after that. The Gen 2 has a flat Picatinny section under a cover. The Gen 3 needs a separate M-Lok rail, and that mounting area is angled, which shortens monopod travel a little. The Gen 3 does let you set butt-pad height and angle, and it can go on a rifle-length or carbine buffer tube. It ships with both adapters. Even with that option I would not put it on a carbine tube. A rifle-length tube is threaded at the rear and makes a more solid joint.
I prefer the Gen 2. It is heavier, so it soaks up a bit more recoil. It already has a flat Picatinny section, so you do not buy an extra rail. I will put a Gen 3 on another precision lower later and compare them after real use.
Next are the KFS Industries Tacom stock and the CAA multi-position sniper stock. The Tacom has comb height, length of pull, and butt-pad height and cant. It comes with its own tube. I do not have hands-on time with it, but capable shooters I trust do. I do not see an obvious monopod mount; something aftermarket may exist.
The CAA has a butt-pad adjustment, a built-in monopod, comb height, and the comb can slide forward. When it does, support under the front of the comb thins out. I do not like that. Length of pull extends the same way: as you run it out, bearing surface shrinks. Again, not a feature I want on a precision stock.
Last are the Luth-AR MBA and the Strike Industries Viper modular stock. The Luth is popular for good reason. Think of a skeletonized Magpul PRS. Comb height and length of pull are there. The cheek piece also slides fore and aft like the CAA, but it keeps support as it moves. The platform is modular: buy the fixed stock, then add comb and length-of-pull kits later. Luth also makes a carbine-tube precision stock with comb, length of pull, a rising butt pad, a Picatinny monopod rail, and a lock screw to take out wobble. I still would not choose a carbine tube for a precision build.
The Viper is essentially a fixed rifle stock that mounts on a carbine tube, and it locks better than the usual friction-on-carbine designs. The first section slides on against the castle nut and end plate. Spacer sections set length of pull. A nut plate drops into the tube detents and a long screw clamps the stack. For a carbine-tube stock, that joint is solid. Adjustment is coarse, not fine; you pick length when you assemble it. Strike makes a monopod that stows in the stock and a thicker butt pad. Unlike the others here, the Viper has no comb-height adjustment.
I am using the same scale I used on the Hera Arms thumbhole review.
Magpul PRS Gen 2 and Gen 3: A. Magpul is the practical standard now. Mil-spec is the floor, not the goal.
KFS Tacom: A. Full adjustments, solid, and light enough to carry in a match.
Luth-AR MBA: B+. It has what you need, it is lighter than the Magpul PRS, and it is affordable.
Strike Industries Viper: C+. Cheap, a few of the right adjustments, a good carbine-tube lockup, and they could add a comb later. It is not a full PRS stock.
CAA multi-position: C+. The polymer is acceptable and the adjustment list looks complete, but some of those adjustments are not rigid enough for the price.
Prices, roughly: CAA about $430; KFS Tacom about $250; Magpul Gen 3 about $230; Gen 2 about $200 or a little under now that the Gen 3 is out; Luth MBA about $130, or about $50 for the base stock if you add kits later. The Viper is the least expensive. The extra butt pad is about $15 and the monopod about $20.

Viktos

Fitty ACTUAL — Thu, 17 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Hey, guys. What is up? I have good news and bad news. The good news is I am still making videos. The bad news is I will not hit one or two videos a week.
YouTube does not pay gun channels well unless you are the size of Demo Ranch or IV8888. I have not been good at landing real sponsors. Companies send parts to test. That is not the same as a sponsor.
I had a freelance video business that was doing all right. COVID shut it down. Without that income I needed a regular job. I found a good one. Production will slow because of it. Some of you will say it already has. I still spend a lot of time on research and motion graphics, so a finished video takes a while. Without a day job I could post about once a week. With one, expect closer to every two or three weeks. I will try for at least one video a month, two if I can.
I have been sending sponsorship proposals. One company was Viktos. They make tactical apparel. I should have reached out when they were smaller. They now have an in-house video team and did not need a creator like me. They still sent a care package. That was decent of them, so here is a quick unboxing. I had already started opening it.
Packing list: three T-shirts, a hoodie, pants, a jacket, and shoes. I expected a shirt or two. Thank you.
Shirts include a Black Arms Company tee and others—“banana clip / pineapple grenade” style, and “the right of the people.” The hoodie is a black zip-up with Viktos across the chest in OD green. The jacket is their brushstroke camo, an all-weather range jacket. Train in the rain; otherwise it is not training. Pants as well. I will wear this on the range. Yes, range videos are coming.
The shoes are MultiCam Black trainers. They should match the MultiCam Black gear I already have. I hope they are comfortable.
That is the unboxing. Upcoming videos: brake versus compensator, and suppressor mounting—what to look for in a barrel or QD system if you buy a can. E-forms have shortened wait times. I waited about nine months on paper before that.
The next range video is the CMMG 9 mm. I will swap the grip for a B5. I already shot some of that footage and made a mistake: I did not check the ammo and it did not feed well.
Looking at the rest of the rifles, I need to get back to precision videos—revisit any changes and shoot groups again. I am not as good at grouping without a support hand on the stock. I will work around it.

Opr8rERROR's Thoughts

Fitty ACTUAL — Thu, 17 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Want to put the vibe out? Yes. Put the vibe out.
We should really get a woman involved in this operation. They cost money.
Well, you do not pay them.
You mean I am not getting paid.
Neither am I. I like doing this.
Hey, could you imagine if we got paid to do this?
Yes. I know why you are confused. Why?
Because you have no hair. I was going to say I was half Black. No, I did not say that. I know. I thought you were going to.
Why would I say that about you, my best friend who has one arm?
I do not know. Racist talk has been going around. You never know.
I am glad you brought racism up. Here is how I see it. The first time I see someone I ask: one, are you going to try to kill me? Two, why am I still paranoid? Three, did I wear clean pants today? Four, where was I going? Five, back to are you trying to kill me? That is what it comes down to. I want the right to protect myself and my family, and I do not want that taken away. If you do not want that, you can leave. There is no need to burn a flag, step on it, or treat people with contempt. Get along. Religion, race, and creed do not change that. We are all people trying to figure out how to colonize Mars. I want off this planet as much as anyone else here.
Now, welcome to the Wild Wild Rest.

These Colors Never Retreat

Fitty ACTUAL — Thu, 17 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Why do you have two American flags pointing opposite ways? Is it supposed to be one direction?
Yes. There are two flags: one facing each way. The idea is that you always go forward. The colors do not retreat. In a fight, the gun comes up. Step right and it still reads forward. Step left and it still reads forward. That is the point of two flags. America one, America two. That is all you need. America.

Odin Works 308 MLok Rail Installation

Fitty ACTUAL — Thu, 17 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Seeing as my friend TJ was coming over to finish his precision .308, we made a video on installing an Odin Works M-LOK rail. The existing install videos for this rail are not very good.
His build uses a standard AR-10 bolt, a Vltor charging handle, a precision upper and lower, a Criterion barrel with a Strike Industries King Comp, and this Odin Works M-LOK rail. He also wanted the receiver lapped for accuracy. Hand lapping took about 10 minutes. We cleaned the upper and moved on.
Next we bedded the barrel with the same Indian Head gasket sealer I use. We wrapped the barrel in a rag so compound stayed off the contour, coated the outside of the extension, and slid the upper into place.
The Odin Works rail uses a receiver extension with a gas-tube alignment feature. Thread it onto the upper until tight, then back it off until the gas-tube holes in the extension and upper line up.
Like the Lancer carbon rail on my AR-15, a barrel nut threads into that extension and clamps the barrel-extension shoulder to the upper. I wanted to use a torsion bar in the extension lugs, but Odin includes a gas-tube alignment pin that must stay in while you torque. That blocks the torsion bar. The upper goes in a vise and you torque with a barrel-nut wrench. Align the extension, insert the pin so the extension cannot rotate, then torque.
The wrench from my SLR Solo Ultralight on the 6.5 Creedmoor also fits this Odin nut, so we used it. Keep the wrench axis 90 degrees to the torque-wrench head. In line with the wrench you get a false reading.
We torqued and loosened three or four times to season the threads, backed the nut off, applied the thread locker that comes with the rail, ran the nut back in, and final-torqued. I believe that was 50 ft-lb.
We pinned the gas tube to the block and installed the block. It was tight; twisting slightly while pushing helped. I looked down the bore to confirm the tube sat at 12 o’clock, then blue Loctite on the set screws and tightened them firmly.
Slide the Odin rail onto the extension and line up the six fastener holes. Blue Loctite on each screw: two at 3 o’clock, two at 6, two at 9. That finishes the rail.
Last we installed the Strike King Comp. Besides a crush washer we used a couple of shims to time the brake.
That was it. Fairly simple. If you liked the video, like and subscribe.

Precision - .223 Wylde

Fitty ACTUAL — Wed, 16 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Hey. What is up, guys? It has been a while. COVID shut down my freelance video work. YouTube does not pay enough at this channel size, so I took a regular job and moved closer to it. It took time to get back to decent videos. I am back. I will post when I can.
This is the .223 Wylde precision build.
As usual I started with an Aero Precision M4E1 set. For the price they are the best I use: forged receivers with a clean, almost billet look, and threaded pins for the forward assist and bolt catch instead of roll pins. That helps with one hand.
The heart of the build is the barrel: a BSF carbon-tube composite. I covered how BSF differs from other wrapped barrels in a two-part series. The wrap is tubes with an air gap over a turned-down, fluted contour for weight and heat.
On it is an SLR Sentry adjustable gas block, which I use on almost every build. A leaf spring and detent on a notched screw set the gas: in for less, out for more. RifleSpeed makes an on-the-fly block with a neck that sticks past the rail. For a precision gun I prefer fewer moving parts on the barrel so harmonics stay consistent.
The muzzle is a SureFire three-prong flash hider, not the QD suppressor mount. Those prongs can be used as a crude barrel tuner. That trick, and a few others for AR accuracy, need their own video.
Under the rail is an Atlas bipod on an American Defense QD Picatinny mount, which sits on a Kinetic Development M-LOK QD so I can move the whole setup. It is as far forward as possible for stability. On this rifle that created a problem with the gas block. I will show it at the range.
The handguard is Odin Works: simple and light. The carrier is a generic one I had on the bench. The trigger is a LaRue MBT two-stage. Under $100, it gives Geissele real competition.
A Law Tactical folder is on the rear. If you fold an AR, that is the one I recommend. It is durable and looks cleaner than most.
Furniture is B5 Systems: the carbine precision adjustable stock and their textured grip. I would put the standard B5 stock and this grip on most ARs. Under the stock is a B&T-style monopod.
The optic is a Vector Optics Continental 4–24×. Most of my glass is first focal plane. This is my first second-focal-plane scope. The glass is clear, and eye relief at full power is more forgiving than cheap scopes, which go very tight at max zoom. I do not know yet whether that is SFP versus FFP or just this scope’s quality. It will get its own review.
At the range the bipod sat so far forward that an M-LOK locking tab pressed the bottom of the gas block. I did not see it at first. Groups stringed horizontally. I doubted it was only my one-arm hold. Once I spotted the contact I moved the bipod two M-LOK slots back. Stability dropped a little. The stringing stopped and groups tightened.
Setup still takes time. A Fix-It-Sticks bag as a rear rest helped some while the monopod barely hung off the bench. After I raised the Atlas and got the monopod fully on the table, groups improved again. The bipod stayed behind the gas block so it no longer touched the barrel.
I show the stringing groups first, then the best group with poor support, then groups after the harmonic and rest fixes, including the best of those.
There is more to do with this rifle. I will push it and myself. I may try a Vector first-focal-plane scope if they send one. FFP or SFP matters less than magnification, parallax, and a decent build.

300BLK Final

Fitty ACTUAL — Mon, 14 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Hey, guys. What is up? It has been a while. This is an update on the 300 Blackout build. Last time you saw it, it looked like the earlier configuration. A few parts have changed. Here is the rundown.
The base is still an Aero Precision M4E1 receiver set.
Minor swaps: dust cover, forward assist, receiver end plate, and the castle nut on the Law Tactical folder. All four came from Forward Controls Design, the same company I use for the ambidextrous magazine release and bolt catch.
The larger change is the handguard. I replaced the Strike Industries rail with a Geissele. On it are a Ferro Concepts M-LOK QD sling point and, at the front on the bottom, a Noveske K9 barricade stop. It is aggressive. I like it, and I need it because I only have the spare arm. I put another K9 on the new 8.6 Blackout, this rifle’s larger sibling.
The Scalarworks Peak irons that used to sit here in black are now the tan set, which has been hard to find. The black Peaks went on the 8.6. Both rifles are set up as SBRs. As it stands, the 300 Blackout is a two-stamp gun. When I have a .338 can for the 8.6, that one will be two-stamp as well.
Because this 300 Blackout is an SBR, I went back to my preferred B5 Systems grip and stock.
There is a Unity Tactical riser with a Vortex Razor UH-1 holographic sight. I still shoot this mostly on irons. The riser helps the sight picture with my one-arm hold and lifts the holosight over the irons when I do use it.
I also removed the binary trigger. For me it is a poor fit. Keeping the rifle steady while working the trigger both ways is inaccurate with a one-handed hold. My trigger finger is fine on semi-auto.
I expect this to be the finished 300 Blackout. There may be small add-ons later. I doubt it. Next I will take it to the range and show footage. I wanted this update out so you know what I am running.
If you liked the video, give it a like. I will see you next time.

Precision Rifle - 6.5 Grendel Parts Chosen

Fitty ACTUAL — Mon, 14 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Hey. Hey, guys. Welcome back to the channel. This video covers the 6.5 Grendel build.
I originally planned F4 Defense receivers. There was a misunderstanding about how long I needed the rifle to test several barrels, so I had to send it back early. That may have worked out. As I returned it, Aero Precision released the M4E1 upper and lower. I liked the minimal look. They also brought an AR-10-style feature onto the AR-15 lower: a threaded bolt-catch pin instead of a roll pin. That is easier to install, especially with one hand.
Here is the finished 6.5 Grendel. On the right you see the Aero M4E1 set. Internals are again JP: Easy Trigger with the Armageddon Gear Revolution roller, and their VMOS carrier. The VMOS lets you change rear weights to tune cycling for small-frame calibers or a suppressor.
Magpul PRS Gen 2 stocks are hard to find, so I used a Gen 3.
On the left, as on the 6.5 Creedmoor, I used the Strike Industries grip with the finger-bump shelf so the last pad of the finger sits on the trigger. With the roller trigger I can think less about the finger and more about the rest of the shot.
Magazine release and bolt catch are Forward Controls Design: ambidextrous mag catch and matching bolt catch. The catch is extended so you can lock the bolt without hitting the mag button.
The charging handle is Strike’s latchless model with an ISO tab. I put a red tab only on the left so I can stay in the scope and still find the handle in peripheral vision to load or clear.
The rest of the cycling system is a Strike flat-wire buffer spring and another CTS Engineering anti-tilt active recoil buffer. The nub is meant to keep the carrier centered and limit tilt. Some people say tilt is only a piston-gun problem. I think it happens on direct impingement too, just less. I covered this buffer in an earlier video. In part two you will see a fitment issue between the anti-tilt buffer and the JP VMOS carrier.
The barrel is my third composite: an 18-inch BSF 6.5 Grendel. BSF uses carbon fiber differently from Christensen Arms and Proof Research, the other two wrapped barrels I own. A comparison video is coming. On this barrel: SLR Sentry adjustable gas block, SLR nitrided gas tube, 6.8 mm SureFire SFMB, and a 17-inch Strike rail.
I used to run a Harris bipod on the Creedmoor. I have since switched to an Atlas on a Kinetic Development M-LOK QD mount so I can move it between the Grendel and the Creedmoor.
On top is an American Defense 30 mm QD mount with an Athlon Ares FFP 4.5–27×. I want to see how it stacks up against the Vortex Razor on the Creedmoor.
That is part one: the parts list. The build video is next. Like and subscribe. Facebook is there if you want it. Patreon subscribers see videos a week early. See you next time.

300blk Update

Fitty ACTUAL — Mon, 14 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Hey. Welcome back to the channel. This is an update on the 300 Blackout pistol build. The rifle in the intro is not the first version. This is how it looked when I first built it, and several parts have changed.
I replaced the SB Tactical PDW brace with an SBA3 so I could add a Law Tactical folding adapter.
The original iron sights—I am not sure which company made that first set—had large clamp knobs on the Picatinny rail. They can snag, and I did not like the look. Charging handles snag too; the main reason I swapped them was appearance. The Scalarworks Peak set is cleaner in a top-down view: minimal and easier on the eye.
I also changed the barrel. The muzzle threads were not square to the bore and would have risked a baffle strike on the suppressor. The SureFire SOCOM300-SPS would not lock onto the muzzle brake because the ratchet sat too close to the handguard. The finished barrel is not actually longer. I installed the spacer that comes with the SureFire SFMB, which moves the QD brake out far enough for the can to lock.
The grip went from Strike Industries to a Magpul FDE grip, then to the B5 grip. The B5 texture is the best I have used, so it stayed.
The current trigger is a Franklin Armory binary. Binary triggers are entertaining, but they do not give the same control as a true select-fire gun because the finger has to work both directions. That is a problem for me. I have no support hand on the rail. Everything is the spare arm. By definition I am shooting it as a one-handed gun.
The binary also requires Franklin’s proprietary safety, so the selector changed with the trigger.
The forward assist became a Strike Industries FDE unit to match the FDE theme. The charging handle started as a Strike latchless model; I later switched to their T-Bone 7075 latchless handle. You assemble it so excess gas from a suppressed gun vents left or right, using the two set screws to choose the side.
The muzzle brake on the updated gun shows a lot of suppressed use. Subsonic suppressed 300 Blackout is easy to like. Color is personal. I would stay with black or FDE. This build is FDE. OD would get OD. Red and blue are not for me.
The last large visible change is the FDE Law Tactical folder. If you want a folding AR stock or brace adapter, that is the one I would use. Other folders exist; this is my preference.
If you can explain the folder animation in the intro, say how in the comments and I will send a morale patch. Here is that animation again.
The last parts change is the bolt carrier group. I cannot show it yet. When I can, there will be a video on how it works. Similar carriers exist. I prefer how this one runs.
That is the 300 Blackout pistol update. Like and subscribe. Apparel is at BallisticInk.com. Patches are at FittyActual.com—first runs are 160th / Night Stalker designs from my old unit, then other artwork. I am on Facebook, Instagram, IGTV, and TikTok. TikTok grew quickly; I treat it as a distribution tool, not as a cause. See you in the next update.

Precision Rifle - 6.5 Grendel Assembly

All right. Let’s start this build. The footage was shot on F4 Defense receivers. I did the same work on the new Aero Precision M4E1 set, so ignore the receiver brand in the clips.
Upper lineup: 17-inch Strike rail and its barrel nut (those get their own video), a foot-pound torque wrench with the proprietary nut wrench, an SLR Sentry adjustable gas block and nitrided gas tube, a 6.8 mm SureFire SFMB, an 18-inch 6.5 Grendel BSF barrel, a Geissele torsion bar, a level, lapping compound, and my lapping tool. G&G Rifle Works makes that tool to my design. New kits ship in a clear tube with packets of compound, so you do not have to source compound separately. You can chuck the tool in a drill or, with the extra mass in the head, lap by hand with the upper vertical and let gravity help.
First I lap the upper. Compound goes under the head of the tool. Insert it and turn until the anodizing is gone from the face that meets the barrel extension. Hand lapping does not take long. I have a dedicated lapping video; the card should be in the corner. I wipe the tool and put it back in the tube for the next build.
The BSF extension is a tight fit. I tap it in with a soft-face mallet.
The Geissele torsion bar goes in the vise. The grooves lock into the barrel-extension lugs. Slide it on, align, and it seats. Thread the nut on by hand. With a torque adapter, keep the wrench axis 90 degrees to the adapter. In line with the wrench you will under-torque. Either side is fine as long as you tighten the correct direction.
Season the threads: torque, loosen, repeat three or four times, then final torque. On this Strike nut, a valley must line up with the gas-tube hole. Before the last torque I back the nut off, expose the receiver threads, and apply anti-seize so a future barrel swap does not seize. Aeroshell is common; I use anti-seize. A few dabs on the threads, run the nut down, then final-torque so a valley lines up with the gas-tube port. Start at the low end of the spec; if it will not index, go toward the high end until it does. Confirm the gas tube will clear.
Gas-block work is slower with one hand. I put the block in a small vise, start the roll pin so it stands, then use channel locks to start it so it cannot fall out. The gas tube goes in with the large hole down and the front side holes aligned with the pin. I flip the assembly, put one jaw on the detent spring leaf and one on the pin, and squeeze the pin through.
The BSF barrel is already dimpled. An SLR dimple jig can add a second dimple if needed. I slide the block on, remove the set screws, align to the dimple, blue Loctite, and tighten both screws firmly.
The Strike rail slides on. One bolt, blue Loctite, torque.
I install the SureFire SFMB only with a crush washer for now—no timed shims or Rocksett—until I confirm the gun is gassed. Even with an adjustable block I want the brake removable if the block has to come off.
Like the 6.5 Creedmoor build, I use a CTS Engineering active-recoil buffer, anti-tilt version. The front nub is meant to enter the back of the carrier and limit tilt. I did not know at first that a JP VMOS carrier’s rear hole is smaller than mil-spec, so it would not fit. G&G turned the nub down on a lathe until it did.
The Grendel lower is built like the Creedmoor lower: JP Easy Trigger with the Armageddon Gear Revolution roller. That install is in the Creedmoor lower video.
Mr. Mill and I took it to the range to set the gas and confirm ejection. I opened the gas a little. Next trip is groups.
That is the build. Like, subscribe, Facebook, Patreon if you want to support it. See you next time.

OPER-HATE - Ep01 "Fittys Fail"

Fitty ACTUAL — Sat, 12 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT

That is a good guitar riff. You should bring the goatee back. No. I wear a full beard now. Here is the backstory.
The range was about 30 minutes away. It had rained there, but less than at home. I had one Dragon’s Breath 12-gauge round from a gun show. We meant to shoot it first. I lost it in the range bag. We had brought fire extinguishers from the cars. We shot the rest of the day as usual. When I packed up I found the round. By then the grass had dried.
Dead grass in sun holds little water. I had marked the target and intended to hit a cardboard box. I knew the box would burn and brought it in close. I assumed the shell was only magnesium. It also had birdshot. The shot ricocheted off the box and carried burning magnesium onto the berm.
We did have extinguishers. Someone had already taken them back to the cars.
On camera the ricochet barely looks like a hit. Recoil was almost nothing. I cut the video fast and misspelled words. That is sloppy editing, not ignorance of spelling.
A real mistake was not showing the footage of putting the fire out. I used to delete extra clips. After the shot, nothing obvious happened. I turned the camera off. It stayed on the tripod. We watched the field and berm for two or three minutes. Nothing lit, so we packed again.
A shooter’s wife then said it looked like a wildfire. Her husband agreed. We had been facing the other way. She pointed. Everyone froze, then ran out to stomp it. A neighbor would not loan targets, so we used our feet. Wind first blew smoke away, then into our faces. I held my breath, lost my balance, and almost fell in. A friend pulled me back and told me to get clear. That is when the camera comes back on.
I went out again when the wind shifted. Some viewers called the fire CGI. It was not. I did start it.
We called the parks fire department. They said they were coming. We waited on the extinguishers from the cars. I did not also call 911 because parks fire was already notified. I was in shock. I thought I might lose firearms or face a fine or worse.
The box finally caught. Someone used an extinguisher on the wrong side relative to the wind and trees. The back of the berm was gravel, so the fire did not carry over the top. That patch burned out.
The on-screen warning is there because this was dangerous. I am not a pyrotechnician. I posted it as a caution—and yes, it got views. I am willing to show a serious mistake.
After it was out we called back and said they did not need to come. They never arrived. Some people also disliked a comparison to FPS Russia. That is another episode.
