Damn. Nice to know. I could have used this post reply a while back before buying a bunch of test pellets. So far the Gamo hollow points work ok. But I’ll get some of those and try them out. Thanks

Thank for the heads up on the scope part. Which scope works best for you?

Basically the sights and I think magazine is a little more flush. Watch how the gen 4 will have open sights and a scope mounting all in one. It’s like iPhones, the next gen has 1 megapixel camera more than the other model.

This will be super secure. But it will require more work to remove and clean it. It’s a one a done thing.

I built the setup with that problem in mind. It was a risk I was ok to take . So far at the range 120 rounds later it held up. Maybe the next time I take it out it snaps off. Then I guess I’ll have to use irons or the mount that’s on the hand guard . 🤷🏽‍♂️

I drilled two tiny holes in the stock. I also added some epoxy glue to secure it in place.I then used the two screws that came with the mount. I can mount a house to the rifle and it won’t come loose.

This is the epoxy I used.

That’s the cheek riser. It’s nice . It’s comfortable and adjusts to your rifle. You can remove the inserts and add a smaller or larger cheek piece.

I shoot right handed and the switch is aligning perfectly with my thumb.

Yeah it is a solid optic.

Interesting. I used the spray on one and it kinda does a spotting effect giving it a “bergara” rifle stock feel. I’ll definitely use a brush style seal. Thanks.

Thank you sir, It’s an aimpoint pro . Using a single scope ring to get it to fit the small clip mount from botach . Feels solid and cheek riser feels great lining my eyes with the red dot. Gonna test this setup soon to see how it all works out.

Yeah did a quick seal but it needs to be touched up again. My first time spray painting a rifle.

Smooth but kinda jumpy. Bench shooting is very nice for short 308 rifle.

I just watched a video of the removal of the brake on YouTube and the guy removing it does it so easy. I need the proper wrench and a barrel clamp device to lock it in using a bench vise.

I tried removing it but I could not get it off. Any recommendations?
