Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Aero Precision is not your typical “gun manufacturer” per say, rather they’re known for offering a host of parts and pieces enabling you to build an AR yourself. This can be as simple as buying a complete assembled upper and/or lower receiver, by purchasing individual pieces or anything in-between. They offer stripped receivers, barrels, handguards, trigger groups, bolts and bolt carrier assemblies, receiver extensions and a whole lot more. Basically, everything a home builder might need to assemble a good quality AR-15 or AR-10-style rifle. In addition to their parts, they also offer complete rifles with this example being from their large frame M5E1 line. The M5E1 is an AR-10-sized platform available in both .308 Winchester and 6.5mm Creedmoor. A variety of barrel length options are offered including 16, 18, 20 and 22 inches.
Aero Precision's M5E1 in 6.5 Creedmoor is a well-built auto-loading rifle with a number of interesting features. This rifle features a fairly heavy profile 416R stainless steel match barrel. This is bead blasted for a dull finish and features a 1 turn in 8 inches barrel twist. It is threaded at the muzzle and comes with a muzzle brake. If you prefer a different muzzle device, or wish to run suppressed, it’s a simple matter to remove the brake and mount the device of your choice. Surrounding the barrel is Aero Precision’s Gen 2 Enhanced Series free-floating handguard. This is approximately 15 inches in length and features a modified MIL STD 1913 rail at 12-O’clock. It’s not a true MIL STD 1913 rail as unnecessary material has been removed to reduce weight. M-LOK slots are machined into it at 3, 6 and 9-O’clock for mounting accessories. Quick Detach sling swivel sockets are machined into the rear of the rail at 3 and 9 O’clock. Inside the rail you’ll find a rifle length gas system and a low profile gas block.
The match grade barrel is fitted to an Aero Precision M5E1 upper receiver. While at first glance the M5E1 upper receiver appears to be a typical AR-10 upper, it is not. Rather the handguard mount is forged integral to the upper receiver. So the handguard is not simply mounted to the barrel nut. The handguard bolts directly to the upper receiver via eight screws. The M5E1 upper is machined from 7075-T6 forged aluminum and has laser engraved T-marks. It features a forward assist, brass deflector and ejection port door. This is a standard Stoner direct gas operating system and inside the upper receiver rides a Black Nitride coated bolt carrier assembly. The bolt carrier is machined from 8620 steel while the bolt is machined from 9310 steel. The bolt is shot peened, magnetic particle inspected and high pressure tested. The extractor is machined from 4340 steel and is fitted with double O-rings and double springs. The gas key is machined from 4130 steel and attached with Grade 8 bolts which are properly staked. The firing pin is machined from 8740 steel and hard chrome plated. The Black Nitride coating reduces friction and reduces the need for lubricants and cleaning. Aero Precision also offers this bolt carrier assembly with a phosphate and a Nickel Boron finish. The upper receiver is pinned onto an Aero Precision M5 lower receiver. This forging is machined from 7075-T6 aluminum and it has a number of nice features. These include a threaded bolt catch retainer, integrated trigger guard, upper tension screw, threaded take-down pin detent recess and a flared magazine well. Fitted to the lower is a Magpul MOE pistol grip and a Magpul PRS Gen3 Precision Adjustable Stock. The grip has a handy storage compartment. The stock is adjustable for length of pull and has an adjustable cheek riser. Multiple sling mounting positions are fitted. Plus, the butt features a soft and fairly thick rubber recoil pad. With the stock adjusted all the way in length of pull is a fairly long 14.8 inches.
Many consider the Nightforce NXS 5.5-22x56 to be the ultimate long range scope. Its 56mm objective lens provides maximum clarity and resolution across the entire magnification range. This advanced field tactical scope has a wide magnification factor that allows precision accuracy at the longest ranges yet is highly effective for shots at close ranges. The design of this scope exudes ruggedness and that is exactly what it is. With 100 MOA of elevation travel and 20 MOA or 10 mils of travel per turret revolution respectively per turret version, no target will be out of range of this scope. Optional Nightforce Zero Stop elevation turret and standard illuminated reticle compliment the side parallax adjustment rounding out the most popular scope Nightforce has yet produced. So whether you are a long range hunter or a tactical shooter, this scope will be all that you will ever need. Nightforce built the NXS line of battlefield ready precision riflescopes from the ground up with the goal of meeting the most demanding needs shooters may have.
The NXS line offers a couple models which includes compact and full size. The compact models are the perfect choice for hunting dangerous game in the bush. Compact NXS scopes offer the best balance between size, weight, and magnification. Full size NXS models push the limits of what can be done with a tactical scope. There is no glass to metal contact. Hardened bronze materials are utilized in the adjustment and erector tube assemblies. Nightforce NXS line of riflescopes are versatile, tough, reliable, and rugged. NXS riflescopes are trusted by world record holders. When every shot counts, count on Nightforce NXS, the toughest riflescope on the planet. Features of the NXS include: Supreme tactical-proven reliability, Hand-aligned mil-spec-bedded lenses, Aircraft-grade alluminum alloy body, Glass-etched illuminated reticles, and Select models have ZeroStop absolute-zero-return turrets.
