Putting up my PSA factory assembled 6.5 creedmoor upper complete with BCG and charging handle. I added a Surefire brake and am letting it go with the rifle.
Bought this awhile back to take to a long range class in New Mexico. Long story short, it didn't meet my expectations for accuracy for shooting extreme long range.
I did do some load work ups and got it to just under MOA, but it took a lot of effort. I'm happy to share that load info to the new owner if they'd like.
I wound up taking a 6.5 bolt action RPR to the class instead as it was easier to get down to the 1/2 MOA, Sub 1/2 MOA that I expect out of my long range rigs.
This is only for the upper, not the entire rifle. Fully assembled rifle pictures taken for presentation purposes only.
Now for the kicker..... When I was removing the scope, I did notice the mount was not very tight at all. Kinda pissed me off when I saw this when breaking the rifle down for this ad. Had I noticed this during load work up I would have tightened it one to two more turns of the nuts on the quick release mount. At this point though I'm moving on.
Regardless, I'd still assume for the purpose of purchasing that it's capable of the accuracy I saw out of it.
