Mk 13 Mod 0 stock

Frank Greene noted that 3 different chambers were used by the military on the 300 WinMag rifles (each differed from SAMMI spec). Here’s my random question regarding the freebore on Mk 13 chambers. When Crane went from the Mk 248 Mod 0 chamber (190 grain SMK) to the Mk 248 Mod 1 chamber (220 grain SMK), did they change the free bore spec?

-I think the A191 chamber (circa 1993-94?) has a .108" freebore, but maybe the later chambers had a longer freebore? Did the freebore spec change over time? (PT&G offers different reamers). I know the Mk 248 Mod 1 ammo is too hot, but was curious if the freebore changed when they adopted the 220 SMK bullets (circa 2009):

308 Pistol 12.5" load development

Let me just throw this out. If you want a shorty ar10 that packs a punch. Swap your barrel out for a 358 Winchester barrel. Brass, bolt, everything is the same. It is just a 308 necked up to .358 but it packs one helluva punch at short to medium range. It can be loaded to be considerably more powerful than 308 and .358 projectiles can be had pretty cheap.

Israel/iran

the Pentateuch or torah are known as the books of moses because, as the name suggests, they were codified from earlier shorter scrolls or oral traditions. As such, compiled around 1400 BC, they were not, in their complete form, the oldest text. The oldest is Job. The Book of Job predates (does not mention) the Abrahamic Covenant, and it most likely dates from the immediate post-diluvian epoch. It also contains "lost words" which had gone out of usage before the time of Moses, and describes dinosaurs, which I'm sure some people in here will have fun with.
That stuff interest me. I also like Wes Huff’s on multiple theology and history’s.
