  1. Good timing. I’m using a LaRue 18” barrel right now and feel I’m at the barrels limit as far as accuracy. I can get MOA sometimes but I’m inconsistent. For example, I’ll shoot a 5 shot group, 4 will be dime size but one will be 1.5” out. I’m at my wits end. I’m looking at the White Oak SPR, or ?? I want to shoot MOA all day and anything better would be a bonus. I reload and have watched all your 223 videos.

  2. your previous video on WOA SPR 18" have better grouping result, right out of the box or it's because it's reload ammo?
    Just wondering what's your opinion between your 18" SPR vs 20" Predator accuracy/grouping out of the box difference?  I know you have not replied to one of my previous question.  Lastly, has your 18" SPR grouping changed after 5000 rounds, by how much?

  3. I don't know enough about in barrel gas dynamics, but would the mid vs. rifle gas system explain some of the extra speed seen? If you're bleeding the gas off a few inches sooner on the 18", could that drop in pressure make that much difference? One way to find out would be to get two barrels, same length, different gas lengths. Thanks for the video and information as always!

  4. Think I’ve heard you reference QL before. I’ve just picked up a copy and think there may be something to the OBT theory. I’m sure the node locations are different between the 18” & 20”. In fact I’m gonna crunch some of your result and see in any of your loads lined up with the 18” vs the 20”

  5. I could care less if companies gift items to Youtubers, if the quality holds up, then great! If not, we know you’ll call it what it is. Keep ‘em comin man! Still hoping for a cleaning mat! 🤟
