KG Karris Guns Wraith Elite w Ballistic Advantage barrel

[rangerstx4]

Here's a quick accuracy report for the KG Wraith Elite upper. A buddy wanted a compact coyote gun so we put this together for him.
Basics-
16in Ballistic Advantage barrel. 1/7 twist
3.5lb Rise Armament trigger.
Noreen lower
LPK from KG
Scope is a $98 NcStar 6-24x I picked up in 2001 at a gun show. It's mounted on a B-Square Ar mount. (a 1-6 is going on the gun but this scope always holds zero and is my quick go to for grouping)

1st- the lpk from KG is meh. I had to grind and buff the safety detent as well as the front take down detent to get them to work smoothly.

2nd- the rest of the upper is good. Solid rail, nice barrel, nothing marred or stripped. Bolt and Carrier are mil spec and normal.

Results: 100yd from bench with rifle rest 12x on scope. Wind 1-4 mph 1/4 value. 45 deg out.
77gr match 3/4in group
68gr match 3/8in group
60gr vmax 1in group
55gr blitzing 1 1/4in group
55gr fmj bulk 5/8in group
Win 45gr jhp 3/8in group

I had a kg pistol upper. It was well made, and accurate. I would rather have a kg over a low end palmetto any day.

I have an KG AR9 upper on a PSA lower and love it.

Confirms a couple things for me
A.. Balistics Advantage barrels are a tremendous value. As good and accurate as barrels costing 2-3x as much. I have them in two ARs and can't imagine getting anything else in the future.
B.. Tactical Ammo (out of St. helens OR...a stones throw away) makes a hellofa good bullet. Thier reman ammo is also great. They stand behind it too. I've been really impressed with their customer service!
