10-shot group fired prone off a bi-pod from my Lothar Walther barreled AR-15 at 100 yards.  The group has an extreme spread of 0.54 MOA.

<This.

I got a smoking deal on 3 16" mid-weight "blems", normally over $300 for $125 each. Someone programmed the CNC wrong, putting the barrel's shoulder at carbine length on a mid-gassed barrel. I simply used Vltor clamp on gas blocks and gifted all three rifles to relatives. Each were well under moa with 24.5 grains of Varget and 69 grain SMK's seated at 2.250".

A little high, but yes.

This wasn’t uncommon from the old LW barrel, the new one that replaced the old one shows promise. I like and will continue to use them….

I have three,

With good ammo and doing my part, holes touch.

Cheap ammo yields pretty good results too.
