My new upper arrived this afternoon. CLE upper with a 16" Krieger barrel, 1-7.7 twist, Wylde chamber. This will be light carbine with a LPVO. Compass Lake was a joy to work with. Great communication and fast service.
Compass Lake upper is in.

Standing by for the AAR.
Shoot the crap out of it and come back with something erudite for us.

I’m still doing load development on my compass lake rifle but I will say it has potential...
4. 24.6 gns of varget 69gn SMK LC brass and fed 205 AR match primer
Mercervillerental - I'm going to handled for it. I have a bunch a 55g Vmax loads for my varmint gun I'll use to break in the barrel. After that I have 77g SMKs and 8208 XBR . I got lucky and was able to purchase 500 pieces of .223 brass last week. I'll load up some for the ladder test once the barrel is broken in.
Powdahound76 - I went with the standard gas block. I'm behind enemy lines so no suppressors for us.

I love me some CLE. I used one of their uppers to go distinguished and earn my high master card. Still hunting for the p100 though. I will be using a bartlein barrel I got from them while I try.
I love that it is so much lighter than my varmint upper. I have an NX8 1-8 X 24 headed my way to complete the package.
Funny, Frank(CLE) taught John(WOA) how to make barrels and use to make all of his barrels before John started to do it in house.
My CLE- Krieger shoots much better then I do. This is 5 rounds of Lapua 69gr factory at 100 yards.
Here are the other five groups I shot at the same time. The top three are Winchester 69gr and the bottom three are the Laups 69gr. Mine is a 20in with a 1/7.7 twist. The upper is a Vltor MUR with an unknown bolt and handguard. As you see I kind of lost it at the end.
