    @norsk, that;s awesome

    You probably want to avoid pulling both triggers at the same time

    Upgunned the .223 Standard profile Howa that was in the KRG Bravo stock to the full 26” .308 heavy profile.
    It’s the proper Howa KRG Bravo now with the enlarged bolt handle.
    The VX3 4.5-14 Loopie is a holding pattern until I put something fancier on it.
    Probably a Mark 4, VX5HD or Nightforce SHV.

    The Howa .223 action is now in a standard Hogue stock but with mag conversion fitted.

    Belt fed, water cooled? I am guessing a cyclic rate of fire at around 575 to 600 rounds per minute. She and her mate Cahill would have conniptions.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Just my trusty little Ruger Ranch 556 moved into a Magpul stock.
    Has a Mark4 2.5-8x on top with TMR reticle.
    Will give it a go with MDT mags, but as soon as the new Magpul 223 10 rounders are released will grab a bunch...
    Still needs a bi-pod.

    None of these are new per se, but the lighting this evening was stunning, so decided to test the camera out - combined with gun porn.

    @dogmatix I like your setup, what do you think of my 6.5CM in KRG stock?

    Nice!
    I'm probably going to get the NF SHV 5-20x56 for my Bravo.
    Where did you get the suppressor cover from? As that is exactly what I'm after.

    Excellent choice. I love my SHV F1, tracks beautifully and glass is good for price range. Cover is a SilencerCo for a 7.5" suppressor I got from Brownells before all of the *importing crap* went down. It was one of the last things I ordered from them.

    New to me but not new to the forum, I relieved a forum member of their Howa Mini in .223
    Took it straight in to Waitaki Engineering to get it suppressed, rethreaded the barrel from 1/2x28 to 14x1 and chucked on a new lightweight stainless suppressor.
    Just need to mount an axle and a towbar and it'll be ready to go

    Nice. What would those stocks be like to shoot left handed?
