Surgeon 591

Good Day,

I am looking for some help in barrel selection for my Surgeon SA 591 .308 Repeater. This action has never been used and i am thinking to start build with it. I am looking into Bartlein and Krieger barrels. However I am unsure of what measurements ie. thread pitch and length I may need to order. Current idea is a M24 profile, 1/8 5R, 24 in. I have only been in precision shooting for about two years now. Please let me know what advice you may have. Thanks!

Question about 13.9in vs 14.5in

Regarding ARs, when otherwise identical carbines in 13.9in and 14.5in are pinned and welded to meet the 16in minimum, does that mean the difference is only in the length of the muzzle device installed? And if that's the case, what's the benefit, other than the 13.9in model possibly offering .6in shorter overall rifle length with a suppressor attached (when compared to the 14.5in with same suppressor)? thanks

ETA: I realize the 14.5in will offer a bit more velocity.

Eclipse

I live in the center of the projected path of the eclipse coming up in April (lake Buchanan Texas) and the locals are going crazy, the range I'm a member of is hosting a four day concert with a shitload of bands , and are expecting 30k people to attend , so that's a concern for the folks living on that side of the lake , I'm on the otherside so not so much here, but the lake is down 18 feet so there's alot of exposed beach front between homes and the water , so people are worried that tourists will flock to these areas to camp or just day visit to watch the eclipse, I just can't see what all the hoopla is , it gets dart every fucking night for hours , what's the big deal about 4 minutes of darkness in the middle of the day, I realize it's a once in a lifetime event but geez , it's 4 fucking minutes.

Firearms Turnkey PRS Impact/Foundation Kahles 6 Dasher + Extra Barrel

My local range closed and life has shifted a bit so I am looking to move my PRS rifle. Impact action (Hawkins bottom metal) in a bedded Foundation stock (with weight kit) and a custom butt pad adjustment piece that a buddy of mine machined for me. Optic is a Kahles 624i with AMR reticle in a Sphur mount with Vortex level and MKM throw lever. Comes with Impact Action wrench. Barrel is a 6 Dasher Stutteville with around 800-1200 rounds on it but still a laser. Area 419 hellfire 6mm brake. Extra barrel cut by Jon Slagle at L3 is a LH gain twist and just has a handful of rounds on it, basically new despite the outside of it (believe this is a Bartlien). Rifle shot a season of matches so there are some wear marks here and there but nothing crazy. Comes with two MDT 6BR mags, regular AI 10 and 5 rounders and one Magpul 5 rounder. Original owner of everything but the optic, which I bought here on the hide. I also have about 70 rounds of loaded Dasher (105 Bergers) left in Lapua brass that I'll throw in. Would prefer to sell as a package for $6,200 for everything. There is a lot here so feel free to send me a text at (727) 543-3731 if you want extra pics or any further info.

A tale of three Larue's (Large frame review Part 2 - FDE Ptar)

.308 FDE PredatAR

IMG_20210219_161912002.jpg



I've already done a review on my FDE PredatAR in the past so this review will be relatively short.

A lot of the same modifications that have been done on the OBR are the same as the PredatAR so no need to reiterate.


The FDE PredatAR has had multiple barrels and different calibers all very successful.

The original 16" .308 Larue barrel that came with the FDE Ptar was one of the worst I have ever owned, the XTRAXN chamber had extremely aggressive fluting and a oversized chamber that resulted in several issues that ranged from cracked cases just above the case heads, deformed extractor grooves due to case extraction during high chamber pressure, blown/ pierced primers and because of the oversized chamber the brass was rendered absolutely unusable.

I've seen these issues on several .308 Larue barrels but definitely not always consistent from gun to gun some have zero issues with function or resizing brass with 100% reliability.

There are multiple variations of the Larue .308 chambering jobs floating around, I've got several Larue barrels in my spare parts/junk bin that I'll post pics of to show the various inconsistent chamber work.

The original .308 Larue 16" Barrel, you could take a metal punch and run it over the chamber flutes and it would sounded like running you finger down a washboard.
704~2.jpeg


The below images is a excellent illustration of what the brass looked like in the original 16" Larue Ptar barrel posted by another Larue owner who suffered from the same issues. (Not my Image)

I exhausted all options trying to make the original Larue Barrel work. I tried multiple brands of Sizing Dies, had Forster make a custom Sizing Die..Annealing the brass after every firing..Imperial Sizing Die Wax, but nothing worked.

IMG_0252.jpeg


The standard .308 Bolt that came with FDE Ptar had a chamferred firing pin hole that produced severe primer flow and pierced primers.

The pictures below shows the difference between the standard Larue .308 Bolt Vs the new HP Bolt and what a difference the new HP bolt makes.

(3 ) .308 Fired FGMM and (3) .308 Hot/High pressure Handloads.
The Small Rifle Primer 6.5CM Lapua Brass shot out of my custom Bartlein barrels come out even cleaner, majority of them are still going strong with 10+ firings

c3XA7ug_jpg-1660455.jpeg


The first barrel I installed was a 18" .308 Bartlein from Paul Ross. 1-10 Twist/ 4 Groove / M110 Contour / RLG/ 5/8x24 Threads/ Oversized Barrel Extension.

IMG_20210219_150034513.jpg
IMG_20210219_145936115.jpg


The barrel design made the FDE Ptar perfectly balanced and a absolute pleasure to shoot.

IMG_20210219_160533284~3.jpg

IMG_20210219_160603411~2.jpg


To no surprise the Custom .308 Bartlein that Paul Ross turned was easily a Sub 1/2" MOA barrel with a variety of Handloads and factory ammo.

20" 6.5CM Bartlein / 1-8 Twist / 4 Groove/ Medium Weight Modified M110 Contour / Rifle Length +1 gas system/ .800 Gas Block Journal that steps down to .790 to the Muzzle / 5/8x24 Threads / Oversized Barrel extension.

Area 419 Hellffire Muzzle Break.

.800 special order Rainer Arms AGB, made my Superlative Arms.

Luth MBA3 Adjust Stock.

After rifle set-up and barrel Break-in I tried out the same OBR pet load of 140ELD /40.4grs H4350/ Lapua SRP Brass/ CCI BR4 Primers.

I shot one round to zero the Scope for the above Handload then shot a 5rd Group, I then passed the rifle over to my 70 year old Father-in-law who has only shot Large frame gasser a handful of times. As you can see the results speak for themselves.

20240225_154657.jpg


In case any of you are wondering why I always use 4 Groove Bartlein's instead of 5R it's because it makes it easier to drill the Gas port directly in the center of a Groove, making Barrel/Gas Port Break-in go a lot smoother.

Accuracy International AT-X

Hey all.
Hoping someone knows more about the rifle or others here. I want the new AT-X, I’ve never owned an AI but always wanted one.
First is magazines. Will regular AICS mags fit into it or is it only the AI double stack mags? I want to find a magazine that holds 12 rounds for PRS and want to know my options.
Next is barrels. I’m not a fan of 6.5 Creedmoor and have nothing to reload for it at all. I currently run a 6mm Creed for PRS but would be ok with a .308 for Tac Division as well. From the looks the new AT-X has a heavier than normal profile so what barrel contour or like options could I get for a barrel in either 6CM or .308Win?
Last is rifle components, like the barrel shroud that goes over the barrel on top of the handguard. I haven’t been able to find a solid availability date. Mile High said summer sometime. Because I want a folding stock and that barrel shroud for sure

thanks for your time, and putting up with the probably lame questions.

Reloading Equipment Berger 220 lrht

I have 1000 berger 220s that I'd like to sell or trade for berger 245 lrht.

Only reason I'm selling is to switch to the 245 lrht for my 8 twist barrel.

The 220s are amazing bullets I'm still keeping a stash for my 9 twist barrel.

1000 berger 220s shipped $660 in a cardboard box taped very well.

Not against selling all 2000 bullets.
