I am selling my Dtech 243 WSSM Upper with a 1:10 twist Shilen stainless steel barrel. I haven't shot it in a couple of years and I need to thin the herd. The rifle only has about 250 rounds thru it which were 87-88gr Berger VLD's loaded mild. Accuracy was fantastic as is everything from Mike. I had the 88's consistently shooting at .5-.75" at 100 yards 5 shot groups (with cool down between strings).
The rifle comes with 2 modified mags.
After getting the rifle from Mike at Dtech, I decided to change some things on it. Here's the break down on the work that was done.
Barrel: I shipped the barrel to ADCO rifles and had them shorten it to 20", they threaded it, and also re-contoured the entire barrel to lighten it up a bit. I then shipped it to Compass Lake Engineering to have them due fluting after seeing their work on a Krieger barrel they did for me. Standard fluting is down after the gas block, and their SDM fluting was done under the handguard/before the gas block. They then shot peened the barrel to a dull gray finish. I then added a low profile set screw gas block to fit under the rail.
Muzzle Break/Comp: Vltor VC-301
Handguard: I swapped out the stock handguard for a Midwest Industries 15"
Charging Handle: added a Badger Tactical latch
