You have the option to get a gen 1 handguard if you want. I prefer the gen 3 handguard. All 3 generations were used on mk12 rifles.

My PRI upper is Douglas 1-8. I think they were out of 1-7. But it’s been consistently sub MOA with AAC 77gr and 70gr TSX. I’ve not shot it for groups too often. Just one of those bewilderments with 5.56 in my mind like i want it to shoot like a bolt gun but know it isn’t that and that my windcall for that little projectile is always going to be the limiting factor at distance.
I have had good luck with my Mod 0, if I do my part and I use not shit ammo I have repeatedly shot 5 to 7 shot strings in the .8 to .9 moa range.
I guess one last question, Id like to shoot a few gas gun prs matches at a local range. Nothing serious but would like to not be totally outdated. Does the mk12 still hold up well compared to what else is available
The mk12 with a modern optic would hold up fine against other 5.56 gas guns.
Ordered a mod 0 from Midway. Planning to use a Nightforce NXS 2.5-10X42mm. Any suggestions on ring height?
Not special or anything. But my PRI mod 0 with NX8 2.5-20.
I considered a clone correct scope but this is more useful

I use the high a.r.m.s. 22 rings with my mod 0 ( 1.450) and the 1.54 with the mod 1.
Nx8 2.5-20 is far more useful than the 2.5-10.

Might end up putting my other SFP NXS on my mod 0 after seeing this. Waiting on craddock to get me the invoice for the 22 arc barrel
Shot the RECCE yesterday. Was pretty fucking cold, but I don’t think it was too much of a factor. The 69gr RMR bullets over 23.3 8208XBR were only grouping about 1.75”. With or without the Can.
77gr SMK over 24.4 RL15 was just under 1moa for five, and I only shot one group to make sure the larger groups with 69s wasn’t me. Not sure this rifle will be sub MOA at this point, which will be a first of the 7 we’ve built over the last few years.
Has no problems on IPSC out to 500 yards though, which was as far as I pushed it. Also, zerod the RMR at 100y for the first time. Going to try this for a bit and see how I like it. Will need to do some ready ups from 50 down to 7 yards and see how what my offsets look like.
