Luth AR MBR 3
They were on sale at one of the tactical ninja suppliers--so I bought a couple and put one on my 284 win build. Seems very well made except for the lack of clearance of the charging handle when trying to set a short LOP.
See how it goes with a fresh batch of 162 eld's

Went out to my local shooting gravel pit--being the weekend I was lucky and able to set up for 200yds since there was no activity in the quarry. Beautiful sunny and warm day--perfect for shooting.
After taking a half hour to get everything set up--the wind starts blowing. By the time I'm done with the first 4 shot set I knew it was going to be hopeless to get good results for the whole charge ladder--the winds were so strong the target box was moving around too much and I had to start to worry about the labradar blowing over and stuff getting knocked off the shooting table. Decided to call it a day and try again tomorrow. The first three shots from the first group were going pretty well--and then I did my typical "choke-a-flier" on the fourth shot in the lower left. I think the Luth AR stock probably did help a bit with accuracy over the magpul ctr which I formally had on there by having not only a lock screw to grip the buffer tube but also a flat bottom surface for resting on a bag.

Went out again today at shot again at 200yds--and the winds had backed off considerably. Unfortunately, I did a poor job of setting up and shooting--so my groups were not especially good, I'll have to retest the whole ladder at some point. This is the best I could do, other groups were worse.

How did you like the stock ?
And those are good groups for 200yds... especially for load development ! |

Thanks about the groups--I wouldn't be blaming myself if I didn't know the rifle can shoot MUCH better than that. Thanks go to McGowen barrels for making me a made-to-order one-off barrel that shoots better than I can.

Purchased two of the MBA3 for my MDT Chassis builds. I like them.
