You forgot the $2 for a can of black spray paint to fix that upper.

By fix I mean, make it less ugly. Or are you planning to paint the lower?

Kidding aside, I'm interested to see how that barrel shoots. How sub MOA is it? What are you shooting? I have a few 77g SMKs over Varget you can try if you feel like it. They shoot 1/4 MOA in my White Oak barrel.

I agree, if I could get a free used upper, I could finally build the 300 blackout upper I want!

75 gr hornady over TAC shoots .577" @ 100m.

10-shot 200 yd group:

the 100yd group edge-to-edge is .98"..... get rid of the width of a bullet (for bullet tip to bullet tip distance) of .224 and you get something that resembles a .756" at the farthest point:
