I remember reading this thread when it was fairly short and it seemed like such a neat concept. Now I'm back years later with my own I built last year. Only a 14.5 but eventually Ill be making a 12.5/11.5 little brother.

They are lighter and a little more low profile and more user friendly. |

So I’m going to start my mini recce and i’ve Decided to also make it a Noveske fan boy gun. 12.5 crusader barrel gen3 billet receivers, Noveske mlok rail. 1-8 accupower. But I can’t decide on doing a surefire warcomp or surefire socom muzzle brake. It’s a for a fun gun, my go to guns have warcomp’s on them. My competition rifle and my 14.5 mini recce have socom brakes so I can’t decide. Also torn on the trigger either geissele ssa-e that I have two of or a geissele ssp. My buddy has one and I like it.

I am using the 4.5x Leupold which is not ideal for me at 100m when shooting groups to measure a barrels accuracy. The temp dropped to freezing today and I was running out of daylight. I was using the bipod on the ground so not exactly bench results. I was also using PPU 75 gr HP BT and Winchester 55 gr FMJ. The PPU is good but not exactly the best ammo out there. Enough with excuses, let’s get to the nitty gritty! I shot 3 round groups at 25 m to get on paper. I was impressed with a few of my groups here because they were almost all touching. I moved to 100 and dialed it in from there with 3 shot groups. I then shot a 10 shot group with PPU unsuppressed and a 5 shot suppressed. I then did the same with the Winchester 55 gr. Groups 10 shot PPU = 1.9” 5 shot PPU and CAN = 2.5” ( about 1” low and 1” left) 10 shot Winchester = 3” 5 shot Winchester and CAN = 3.3” (a little low and left) I am really not disappointed considering my conditions/ammo/equipment. I was really impressed with the Winchester. In the first 10 shot group of the PPU there was one small group of 4 that were almost touching, then the rest were sort of spread out around it. I think it’s due to the magnification and myself. Overall I am happy. I have no doubt this barrel can die better. I am off all week so I am going to due some groups later this week when the weather is better. I am also going to use a Leupold 3-9x. I will post results after round 2. |

for you 11.5" users who use your mini recce more for close up with the occasional longer range shots, would you go with the nightforce 1-8 options or vortex razor 1-6?
