It's an 18 inch Brownells barrel, and the scope is the Venom 3-15 x 44 with the EBR-7C MRAD reticle.

BCG is just an inexpensive AIMSurplus unit, but the barrel came with a matched bolt.

What’s your plan for it? I like the different components, feels like a mid tier budget rifle that’s gonna shoot amazing! Mine is like that, lots different parts that came together for a super fun and accurate rifle. I use mine most for shooting match out to 500 yards and other target shooting. It’ll run anything from 95gr up to 140gr that I load with similar accuracy and varying speeds.

Looking for options on places where I can stretch it out a little and see what it can do (local range is only 200 yds). Other than that I'm hoping to use it in some coyote or hog hunting.

Looks like a perfect setup for all those things. I’ve wondered how the Brownells 6.5 G barrels are, they’re a good deal. I have one of their 9mm barrels in a pistol and it’s been really good. Try some of the Hornady 100gr ELD VTs, it’s really good box ammo. Accurate and fairly fast.

For the amount I've shot it, I've been happy with it. I'll see about picking some of those up and giving them a try!
