I guess I caught a break. I set up my target at about 85yds, braced on the hood of my truck and fired two rounds. Both hit about an inch high and a half inch to the left. I fired four more rounds. All within the 4" circle. I felt that was good enough for my needs.

A few more details: I swapped my 10.5" upper with a 8.5" stainless upper, added my Specwar 7.62, mounted my Leupold VX-HOG 1-4 and it's been in the safe since. I decided to use Remington 220gr instead of my PNW 187gr because I plan to let my French colleagues shoot it tomorrow. Let them shoot the Remys, right? Lol....

I need to get mine out and put the can on it to see how it runs.

Accuracy looks great, any function issues to speak of?

None to mention, but it was only six rounds. There will be five of us shooting this thing tomorrow, so I imagine at least another 50 or more rounds will be shot. I'll update afterwards.

More rounds might be fired, but with the variety of firearms being taken, I figure most will be sampled instead of really testing and dialing in.
 
Good idea letting them run through the Remington. You can blame the poor accuracy on them and not tell them it's the rounds. lol FYI, I started having issues with my carbine cycling. Ended up that it was getting dirty is some pretty odd places. The slow burn on subs can put a lot of powder and gunk back into the action, bolt, and even got some back into the buffer tube. I'm going to have to clean mine better, and more.
 
No other problems to report. The rifle performed well and was dubbed "my favorite" by the one french guy with the most firearm experience.
 
Not the AR, but here is one of my French colleagues shooting my suppressed M&P 22 compact.
