Larue Stealth Upper (bragging)

[TheRealJimDavis]

I shot some pics out to some friends who shoot casually, I don't think they appreciate accurracy enough, so I'm going to you guys.

I rebuilt an old HBAR lower I had the foresight to keep, put a Geissele SSA trigger in it. Just put a Larue Stealth 18" upper on it, 1-8 twist, Wylde chamber. Mounted a Trijicon Accupoint 5-20x on Larue cantilever, and AAC 51t brake.

I Spent today at Delmarva Sporting Clays running IMI Mk 262 Mod 1's. It was sub MOA all day. If it crossed an inch, it was my fault. I cut out the best three and kept them, .375", .625", and .5". The upper right is .81". I posted that one cause it consistently shot groups like that with a M4-2k attached. They were about twice as big as unsuppressed.

It's sick accurate. I gotta use it to train myself to get better, I'm pretty sure im holding her back!

I have some Federal Gold Medal 77gr and Black Hills Mk 262 coming, I'm gonna do a side by side comparison.

Sorry, might not be impressive to some, some may think I'm full of poop..., but like I said; so excited I had to brag.

Ps, I always include the gold dollar cause they're 1.04" in diameter. Gives it scale.

I also printed a (roughly) 2" group at 300 yards, I should've cut it out and measured, but I was too giddy.

 

[BradMacc82]

The targets in green, were those the first targets of the day?

Good reason to brag. How about a picture of your gun as well.

 

[TheRealJimDavis]

Poor resolution, but here she is. Bipod is on the way. (Poor resolution, iPad photo)

 

[TheRealJimDavis]

No, green was toward the end, but not last.

 

[dontpanic]

Nice rifle. That scope is making me drool.

 

[TheRealJimDavis]

It's a nice optic. Side by side with a Leupold Mk 4 6.5-20 it's every bit as clear, crosshairs are a tad thicker, but the tritium dot is nice and makes up for the thicker line. That's also my first Larue cantilever. I was apprehensive, but it totally fixed the eye relief issues with an AR, leveled out easy, and seems to be working.

Forgot to mention, everything was 5 shot groups. I wrote Larue an excited email. Told them they undersold their accurracy.

 

[dontpanic]

I just bought a Leupold. It's really unbelievable, the difference good glass makes.

Congrats again on your new rifle.

Did you get this recently? I am still waiting for the call for my PredatOBR 308 . . .

Damn nice rifle.

 

[Alea Jacta Est]

Wow...that's some good shooting and one nice rig. Well done DeadEye. Thanks for sharing.

Outstanding indeed. I run the hell out of my LaRue uppers.

LaRue is shipping complete guns to Maryland now?

 

[Mike3888]

Really good groups, I'm assuming factory ammo?

I was curious about the ammo as well.

I have had my order in for a couple YEARS. I asked LaRue when the new law dropped and they said they would honor old/outstanding orders. It looks like (from other forums) that they are caught up on back orders but it seems like they have decided to ignore outstanding orders from Maryland because I have gotten zero communications from them besides 'our legal team is working on it' and that was many months ago.

eagle eye well done

I just got the upper on hand maybe a week ago? Took right around 4 weeks from order to door. Apparently they build to order. And on their website it says they won't ship rifles to MD, but I don't know about pre ban orders etc.
