JP SCI-20 6 ARC 18” build

Finally got all the parts in on this build and thought I’d share the build and process with you all.

Backstory:
Father-in-law was looking for a deer gun/yote gun in NW Minnesota, and asked me to build a top tier lightweight gasser. We both have JP parts in other ARs and love them, and he’s wanted a JP rifle for awhile. He decided he wanted 6 ARC, and chose 18” to remain wieldy while suppressed yet retain enough velocity for long range. Chose a VX-6HD 2-12 for the optic- clear glass and very lightweight. Tried my best to convert him to a FFP tree reticle to take full advantage of the 6 ARC ballistics but no luck, he likes his SFP duplex for deer. Added his SilencerCo Omega to top off the build.

Parts:
Receiver set is the JP SCI-20 side charge with a Proof 18” 6 ARC carbon barrel. Paired with a JP LMOS BCG, JP agb, Geissele SSA-E trigger, PRS Lite stock, and Leupold VX-6HD.

Experience:
Ordered most parts from JP, 4-6 week lead time and they had it shipped by week 5. Very helpful guys as well. Hardest part to get was the barrel, found a lgs with one thanks to help from a Hide member.

Assembly:
Putting it all together was fairly straightforward aside from the barrel install, which is a bit more in-depth and requires a torch to heat the receiver before the barrel will seat. Great video on YouTube covering this in depth. Very pleased with the semi-monolithic upper from JP. Combined with the heat fit barrel extension it really locks up like one solid piece. Additionally, installation of the MK3 handguard is greatly simplified with the SCI-20 upper, reducing the installation and set time of the barrel nut otherwise required.

Rainy day today, but will try to get out tomorrow and see how she shoots!

*Update*
She shoots. Really really well. 6 holes in a 1” bullseye at 100 yards

Accessories MRAD 33XC barrel

Selling my Barrett MRAD 33XC barrel that I used for the last 3 months of the ELR season. Only reason I’m selling, is because I’m getting a longer barrel spun up and will no longer need this one. This one has 307 rounds through it, 75% of which were loaded with H1000 (the others were N565 and H50) so the throat is still in good shape. All gunsmithing done by Southern Precision Rifles/Bugholes.

Specs are:

-29” 9T Bartlein heavy taper (0.925” at muzzle) threaded 3/4 at the muzzle.
-Barrett type A barrel makers kit (can be reused for other barrels)
-APA gen 3 fat bastard brake
-Includes 73 275gr Cutting Edge single feed Lazer bullets

Asking $1450 shipped ($1350 without the brake)
Would consider trades ONLY FOR,
-AMP annealer
-Spotting scope
-Vortex Fury HD AB binos

Range Suggestions in My Area (Eastern KY)

Anyone on the site also from the Kentucky, Ohio, West Virginia tri-state area? I'm looking for suggestions of known ELR Ranges or at least 1500ish yards. Also wouldn't be opposed to finding some people to shoot and learn with. Prior military and always looking to help teach or learn myself. Been making the trek up to Thunder Valley Precision, which is a badass place and great people, just looking for somewhere a little closer. Membership or not, doesn't bother me to pay to shoot at a quality location.

SOLD sold

Bought this earlier this year used from another SH member, never used it.... Manners PRS-TCS in High Plains camo. It has all 7 brass weights in the Area 419 arca rail (Took 6 out and left one inside so only 6 pictured) and one buttstock weight. This one also has the "extra" coverage paint option. Inletted for the Impact 737 trigger hanger (not by me I believe Manners did it definitely is professionally done IMO). Has mild scratches here and there, bottom of butt pad metal area has some mild scrapes. Shown in pics. Overall in very good condition.

NO TRADES AT ALL please

Mark 4hd or dmr3 for matches

For matches, I know a lot of people use the mark 5hd’s, but how about the mark4hd’s? I’m looking at the mark4 hd 6-24 (pr2-mil), and the Bushnell dmr3 3.5-21 (g4p). Looking at both as lightly used scopes currently available for under retail in my area.

I’ve ruled out the xtr3. Used a gen2 razor for awhile, but its reticle was just a bit too fine for me on the lower 10-14x powers. I also used a sig tango 6 4-24 for a while and although most didn’t like it I loved its glass, just hated the mis-alignments of the #’s on the turrets, and they were spongy.

I also found an Xrs3 for a great deal but I’m concerned about the writings I’ve found saying it’s horrible in mirage and harder to focus(?). As well as the reticle not being very usable in the 10-14x range since it’s got such a high power of 36x
