Criterion barrels - Accuracy

A while back, I decided that I wanted to go with barrels that would stand up to hard use a bit better than the run of the mill Ballistic Advantage or Roscoe type barrels and decided to go with Criterion.

I went with a 14.5 Core to run with a 10x scope, a 13.9 Core to run with an ACOG and a 12.5 Hybrid to run with a red dot and suppressed. The 12.5 gets the hardest use.

I don't handload anymore and when hunting for ammo, I look for a bang for the buck. I've run 77gr Razor Core, AAC 77gr and some other upper quality heavy rounds. I've also run 55gr V-Max from Black Dot Ammo, AAC 55gr V-Max, ADI 55gr Blitzking, etc.

The best all three barrels will do for me when running the heavier stuff is about 2 MOA. When running the lighter stuff, shooting MOA or better is easy. I can get 2.5 MOA with good M193 and M855.

Is this a characteristic of Criterion barrels or did I just manage to get three barrels that act the same way?

Remington 37 Built by Albin Freeland

I picked up a Remington 37 built by Albin Freeland. It's just one of those guns I couldn't walk away from. It has a stainless Schneider barrel, Kenyon trigger, fiddleback maple stock, the bolt is jeweled. It has a Mo's rear sight and Freeland front sight. The rifle came with a Lyman Super Targetspot 20X scope, spare 50 yard and 100 yard Freeland front sights, Knobloch shooting glasses, two Freeland cartridge boxes, a Unertl tube sight and two bipods.

Maggie’s CAF C47 "Thats All Brother"

CAF had a show in Dallas this weekend. I got to take a flight on "Thats All Brother" and check out some other great planes.
Lot of history in this C47. They had two others there as well. One is being Turned into a AC47 (Spooky). here are a few pictures of the trip. This C47 made the trip to Normandy this past June for the 80th Anniversary.
Highlight of the flight was when a P51 pulled up on our right side for a photo op. Lot of great folks involved with CAF and a wealth of Knowledge. Lot of younger men and women of all walks of life sharing the history of the people, equipment and planes they flew.
Here's a link to the story on Thats All Brother. https://thatsallbrother.org/

Battle born grease for barrel threads for barrel imstall?

I'm about to install a 6.5cm SS proof research prefit barrel on my Zermatt arms origin action and saw on proofs video on YouTube they use what looks like breakthrough battle born grease on the barrel thread when installing it. Is that grease ok to use instead of an anti seize. Or should I use a copper or silver or some other kimd of anti seize? Everyone seems to have a different opinion and I'm not sure what to use.
Thanks,
Justin

Please help me get my account deleted. I got all the firearms info I need for now. The bear pit is addictive and logging out and trying to stay away isn’t helping. The political stuff gets to me to the point where I’m so grumpy/depressed and it affects the people I love.

Many of the guys here are talented, knowledgeable, experienced, smart, and I don’t think I belong here until I get kicked around by life a little more. Maybe I’ll try again with a humble approach and more humility in a few years.

Somebody mentioned in an old thread that cussing a staff member can get your account deleted. So, here I go… fuck you @Lowlight. If this doesn’t work… idk, I put my faith in the pit.

Thank you.

WTB 18" Mk12 barrel & Muzzle Break/Collar

My Mk12 Mod 1 is close to complete. Just need a barrel, OPS/AE muzzle break and collar. Once I get those checked off the list, next up will be the AEM5. Help me complete my first clone and sentimental build, pretty please. Pretty open on pricing.

Ideally, I'm looking for a barrel from High Caliber Sales or PRI.

Update: All you scammers...go **** yourselves. Ain't gonna work on me. I'm not buying a barrel and muzzle devices from [email protected] from TX. You deleted your account after messaging me, which is as dumb as you are. I'm also not paying you when a simple reverse image search shows you stole a user's photo here and tried to pass it off as yours. In fact, just don't message me if you have no history/feedback here, because I will not answer. This is worse than GAFS.

SOLD LMT MWS LM8 DMR .308 20" rifle

Hello Hide,

Up for sale is my LMT MWS "DMR" rifle with a factory 20" .308 win barrel. It is a phenomenal rifle and this barrel has been a solid 3/4 moa shooter with FGMM 175gn. However, it has not been seeing much use this previous year and I have some other projects that I would like to fund. This rifle was produced at the Milan, IL, plant before the move to Iowa (this is stamped on the lower). This rifle has seen mostly bench shooting use and some tripod hunting, but shows little if any wear (I try to take good care of my stuff). This rifle has never had a single malfunction, but was upgraded with the Slash XH buffer for suppressed shooting. This buffer has not affected the rifle's ability to function without a silencer. This is a factory LM8 rifle, so both the upper and lower have identical anodizing.

I am asking $2,650 shipped to an FFL, via PayPal FtF, Venmo, or Zelle.

Additional arts of note:
LMT .308 DMR stock
LMT enhanced trigger guard
Radian Raptor safety selectors
Geissele Hi Speed National Match Trigger (with additional springs and parts)
Geissele charging handle
Slash XH buffer
LM8 rail covers
Area 419 arca rail
2x LM8 rail section
1x Magpul AR10 SR/LR 20 round mag (if legal in state of purchase)
Dead Air .30 cal Keymo muzzlebrake

Let me know if you have any questions,
Vivacious

Optics SPF Nightforce NX8 2.5-20 MOAR with rings.

Hey boys,
I have a like new Nightforce 2.5-20 NX8 with MOAR reticle. Glass is perfect, red and green reticles, and zero stops.
Unfortunately, I don’t have the box and I lost the windage cap on a range trip.🥴 I contacted Nightforce and they sent me a new cap, it just doesn’t have a logo. I did spend the money and get Tenebreax NF scope caps as well.

Comes with your choice of low ARMS #22’s or high 1.5” Larue rings.

Price is 1400 with rings, and 1200 without. Plus like 10$ for shipping.

Thanks!
