Well you guys have fun. I have to go find somewhere else to swim.

I feel like this topic is blown way out of proportion, yes not all uppers are created equally but at the same time you need to know your rifle.

Next time you're practicing at the range with a Bipod and rear bag, shoot from the Prone, Bench, Barricade and standing with tripod.

The 4 Rifles/Uppers that reduce POI shift the most are as follows...IMO

(1) LMT MWS and LaRue OBR.

The LaRue OBR is going to provide the best of both worlds with it's bullet proof design and true free floating barrel design.

With the LMT you won't be able to compete with it's rigidity from it's one peace Upper/Handguard but achieving Consistent all day Sub MOA is challenging, even with custom Bartlein barrels the LMT is just a finicky bitch.

(2) JP LRI-20 and Seekins SP10

The JP and SP10 are similar in design with their integral barrel nut design but both have area's to improve on.

The SP10 really needs Heli Coil inserts in the Upper receiver for the Handguard screws and the JP could benefit from a larger ejection port, bolth rifles would benefit from some alternative handguard designs.

(3) Another rifle that has excellent rigidity and accuracy is the LaRue PredatAR's. The accuracy that the PredatAR's have with a quality Cut rifled barrel are phenomenal.

With all the builds I've done over the years the most accurate rifles have been built off of LaRue OBR, PredatAR (Small and Large frame) and Seekins SP10 build kits.

I ALWAYS buy them just to have a few on hand for precision builds.

The LMT'S can be finicky, can confirm. Love them paired with Bartlein though.

Which AR-10 has the least barrel deflection and is considered the best?

ZCO

Are you saying you've got the zco to sell or that would be your pick?

Crazy! I was just thinking about this the other day, I thought for me, it would be a cool lightweight hunting rifle and run it suppressed.

Bump. Price drop to $1900

$1150 w/ Spuhr shipped

Practical, quality pen allowed in carry-on luggage but has defense capability:

I don't really have a real story about the one that got away related to shooting.
The one that got away was a high school sweetheart nobody wants to hear about that

Atlanta like most cities was once upon a time a nice place to live and visit because of whites........then another group of citizens fuck it up so whites move and create another nice place (Buckhead) and now its getting fucked up by the same people that fucked up downtown ATL.

you have to brush the inside to remove the scale or what ever it is from annealing them. What you are seeing is the brass is galling inside the neck.

That's what I thought when I saw that for the first time and thinking I should also see something like that on the bearing surfaces of pulled bullets. So I pulled some bullets to take a look; bearing surfaces were as smooth as they were before seating with no signs of galling or scrapes. If there's brass partials, like what might come off a chamfer from a dull cutting tool, that galls the inside of the neck that's brass, they'd surely do the same to the softer surface of a bullet. Huh?

That's the only rifle that's ever made me want a 300 mag. Sweet find.

Ya in Illinois where I’m at, it’s only getting worse. Absolutely cannot buy semi auto rifles, no cans, no mags over 10 rounds, the list goes on. The way around it, is to get your FFL and SOT. I got mine all done in about 3 months, and I can get a can in about 3 days….its so sweet. It’s the best thing I’ve done in a while. Shooting, especially by myself is so much more pleasant.

Silly question, but what cleaning rod do you use to clean that 48" barrel?

Pretty sure the gca requires an in home state 4473 for handguns but you can buy a rifle in person out of state. Ie stop by MileHigh on vacation and drive home with an Accuracy International rifle.

Took it out to distance today, and it shot great.
Im curious if anybody else has experience with 190 atips? Looks like hornady is either overstating bc values on them or my bc is being compromised, could easily be a bit of both.
G1 published .836 trued .745
G7 published .422 trued .376
Maybe its a result of them being factory 2nd atips?
If indeed this is the bc I'll get out of them it makes total sense to drop down to a 180 or possibly lighter.
