    No rush.  This has been going on for how long now? 

I gotta have it.  Very cool product.   I also want a hybrid for my 458 socom guns.    Really I'm just addicted to NFA toys so I'll probably buy both. 

    Dremel em off like I do...

I have both and enjoy shooting both.  From the factory, I prefer M&P ergonomics better but I prefer the Glock trigger.  Having said that, I rarely keep things stock, so I installed an Apex kit on the M&P and ghost connector/titanium plunger/polish job on the Glock.  I also modified the Glock frame to my liking by heating and molding the "hump" and sanding/stippling all over.    They are both great guns and you really need to rent and shoot both of them. 

    You have to take the ASR collar into account.  From the end of the collar to front of suppressor is 8.5" and I get 1.48" diameter using calipers.

    Winds <5mph so it was a good day to shoot.  I was able to shoot several 3" groups at that distance.  Oddly enough, I haven't even had the chance to group it at 100yds.  We just went straight to 600.

Just wanted to follow up after I had a chance to dial it in a little: Shot this 4 shot group at 600yds (max distance at my range) that measured 3" [URL=http://s107.photobucket.com/user/samson7x/media/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpsxkyoylx4.jpg.html][/URL] Needless to say, I love this rifle and look forward to what it'll do with handloads.

What's your budget?  I picked up a Konus 20-60 for around $250 on sale and it has been great.      http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/368467-REG/Konus_7122_Konuspot_100_4_0_100mm_Spotting_Scope.html

    I would guess it will be louder than the saker.  They are boasting about reduced blowback, and that means louder.  I'm just not seeing anything that makes me want to buy one.  It's a heavy can made out of basic materials with no meter data to my knowledge.  It also appears that it is not rated for magnum rounds.  Of course, it all depends on what you need out of a can.   People will buy them based on name alone so I'm sure they will sell a bunch just based on that.

I just got my Salvo a few weeks ago too.   Be sure and try the winchester subsonic loads.  It's super quiet and fun although it doesn't cycle the action on my benelli.    I feel like it is too long in 12" configuration for my 24" benelli.  I plan on ordering an 8" rod kit to try.

    Individual or trust?  Yours should be approved any day now.  I just had one approved right at 4 months on a trust. 

I recently (as in 2 weeks ago) had 2 trust form 4's clear in just shy of 4 months.

Cool.  I want one.  The only experience I have with Trijicon is my ACOG and it is bomb proof with some of the clearest glass I've ever seen.

  Oops, meant to put that in the post.  It's actually chambered in 6.5 creedmoor.  I'm new to the caliber but did quite a bit of research before deciding on it.  So far I love it.   Thank you all for the comments.

Is it indeed copper jacket?   I always have loose carbon rattling around after shooting a lot of 9mm.

Didn't give us much info there.  What exactly is bad?  Clarity?  Reticle?  Not a true 1x?

    Yikes!  They are the best but it certainly comes at a price.

  I've got one of the threaded versions and really like it.  It is a beater truck gun so the stock didn't bother me.    It didn't want to feed reliably at first, but I cycled the bolt a hundred times and ran a box through it and it smoothed right up.  It's a nice, light package and sounds good with a suppressor.   I don't have a problem with the trigger on mine, but I have worked on them and they smooth out nicely with a little polishing.   I used the weaver #12 to mount a nikon 2-7

Check your spam folder.  Should just be able to open it on the ATF website.  Far left side...

Yep.  I miss the 2 week approval times for efile form 1.

That date has been pushed back a couple of times now.  I wouldn't be surprised if they pushed it back again. 

This is just one sample, but my Ruger American likes my 60gr vmax handloads the best.  It does not group well with anything 70gr or heavier.  

I actually own one and have for probably 6mo or so.  I bought it as a beater truck gun and it has surpassed my expectations.  I put a PA 4-14x FFP scope on it and can get hits out to 600yds on a 12" plate using my handloads.  Shooting groups at 100yds, I regularly get sub 1" groups using handloads with 60gr vmax bullets.  It also shoots 55gr FMJs really well but groups open up a little over an inch.  My 75gr handloads were all over the place though.    I really like the rifle.  The trigger breaks clean and consistent at 3.5 lbs from the factory.  The bolt is smooth and the gun is super lightweight.  Threading is concentric and it makes a great little suppressor host.  Finish is nice and fairly robust from what I can tell.  I definitely don't baby it and I've yet to scratch the finish.    For the price, it's tough to beat IMO.  I intend to add the 300blk version pretty soon.
