Yeah Ken (what a good bastard) is letting me swap the stock 12" rail for a new 9" one. The only reason I wanted to shorten the barrel is so the gun doesn't end up front heavy and unbalanced.. What is yours like with suppressor? What design is the suppressor you have? How heavy?
Also what ammo do you use?
I use an MAE AR10 which is heavy but indestructible. Still balances ok because I have a heavy stock and scope. You could try and get one of the alloy suppresors with stainless inserts or Titanium if you can afford the coin. Ammo? All sorts, hand-loads, Russian and Chinese. All works ok but my hand loads are a bit slow.
I might use a Waitaki Engineering can - similar to NEA. I have the Servo 10" stock from NZAR15 which is quite heavy. Thanks for the advice

After owning this rifle for months & tossing up whether to keep it or let it go Ive finally got it set up & just gota find some time and nice weather to go out and put some bombs threw it.
Titan 3 in 22-250, Schultz and Larsen hardcore suppressor and Weaver V16 4-16x 42 scope with fine crosshair and centre dot, should be a good little bunny blaster
Shoot it, root it & then BBQ it !!!
New .223 wearing the 6.5 dpt suppressor atm with its 25 dollar rings and 10buck bases haha.
