UBR

I purchased the upper complete; hand guard came installed. I do like it - lightweight, medium diameter, looks sharp.

Magpul's UBR stocks are great. Consistent cheek weld is easy to achieve as the length of pull can be programmed for the user. The stock feels solid, also. No rattles, very nice quality. The UBR is a little heavier than many other stocks, though. I have them on many AR style rifles.

As far as optics, the rifle will be used for short to medium range shooting. But, the older I get, the more I appreciate magnification. I have been looking at Leupold Mk 4 2.5-10 or the US Optic 1-8.

Can't go wrong with US Optics! Have you looked into the Leupold Mark 6? They are amazingly compact and FFP. -MW

I like the concept of the 300 Blackout with the compatibility on the AR platform. Very cool that no modifications (other than bolt and barrel) are needed. And the ballistics seem to be excellent. Looking forward to seeing what you decide for optics. Regar...
