Thanks cleano. Im new to the world of barrel struts but if i remember right the xdrill is an ounce lighter. I also just used one clamp which should help with the weight a little. The second clamp that usually goes up against the gas block seems a little redundant to me being that the actual strut clamps to the gas block with the allen screws.
I really liked the look of it without the shroud also but i already had it and plus there were marks on my barrel from the shroud set screws so i decided to go back with it.
