Well I took the AR out for a function check and sight in. Just took a random load with some leftover BLC2 powder at 27.5g and a 52g smk at 2.25" Fired 35 rounds total and not 1 problem. So that's good, I must've put it together halfway right ha!
After I got it on paper at 100 yards and shot a few groups at 100, which were right around 1-1.25" I moved onto the 200 yard zero. Took a little getting used to the 2 stage trigger, and also the funky recoil versus a bolt action. The first 5 went 1.7" and those are marked. I then went down 1 click and got serious with the next 5 to go 1.2". All 10 shots went slightly under 2" which means it is a solid MOA rifle with a thrown together load. I think it'll be fully capable of much better after I get a little bit more used to it, and get some load development going. Overall pretty happy with it. Definitely minute of coyote capable!
