So their vice chair is radical communist so -of deep state… never did anything in his life but show up and bray on about guns are bad…

Tells you what their future targets are. They are going full in on destroying g the 2a and putting the retard millenial radicals at the helm.

I can’t wait until they find out he has been didling kids and has a massive child porn stash. Oh wait… he is Democrat Royalty. He’ll get away with it.

I tend to avoid using virgin brass for load development or matches, mainly because I've bumped into some discrepancies in powder charge between virgin and 1x fired, not necessarily because of the head space so much as its the whole case expanding a bit differently (more) from its virgin state vs from a minimally full-length sized state.

Then again, I'm talking in terms of a somewhat overly fussy F-class shooter. For mag-length stuff thats going to be shot off a barricade, I'm not sure I'd bother worrying about it too much - or if you do, just use up that first firing doing positional practice.

Personally, I don't think 7-8 thou shy on head space is ideal... but I also don't think it's enough to be causing that high of a percentage of misfire - not unless there's something else contributing.

Think about it like this: a lot of people adjust their sizing dies to bump the shoulder somewhere between 2-4 thou, depending on the application. If you follow the actual instructions on most factory dies - ie, raise the ram, screw down to hard contact, lower the ram, screw the die in another half turn and lock it down - it will usually "over size" the cases, with about 8-10 thou shoulder set back.

But nobody cries about that small amount of excess head space causing them misfire in their Savage/Remington/Browning/Tikka/AR, do they?

Is it ideal, no. Is it the root cause of what you have going on here... I'd say also no.

XM-3 on CMP, what’s the story behind these?

I can’t add much to that, but it is interesting the barrel markings on the rebarrel are slightly different. IBA-S (I’d guess Schneider barrel?) and it has the twist marked (1:10)

ETA: reference pictures from CMP barrel markings.

Say that as well and I'm guessing that it is an IBA replacement barrel. Obviously, any gunsmith can hang a barrel and stamp it any way they want. The main thing that's going through my head is that there can't be a collector that's stupid enough to pull the original barrel with the original sniper paint and hang a brand new barrel. It just ruins the value of the rifle.

Another option is that the Marine 2112 armorers pulled the barrel, installed a new barrel, and reproduced the stamps the best they could (with some differences). This makes more sense than a civilian collector doing the work, since the barreled action looks like it has also been refinished. The current barrel and receiver lack sniper paint. This is because the painted barrel was pulled and the receiver was cleaned off. The barreled action looks like it has a black oxide finish, and not the coating that IBA put on the XM3's. A civilian owner would care about the paint and finish on the receiver, IBA and the Marines don't.

Unless the seller has information for the rest of us, all we can do is speculate on what's going on. One way or another, that rifle isn't anywhere near the $40k listed price! Even with original kit and PVS-22, that rifle is worth far less than all other USMC XM3's, it's literally now the bottom of the barrel. It might be a $20k kit with everything, or it might be worth even less than that. But it's not a $40k kit.
