I'll take 2 bags of 7x57 brass and the 7x57 dies. PM inbound.

I think my problem is with the heavier bullets I've got just a touch more gas than I had it tuned for. That receiver damage looks like the brass isn't getting all the way out of the chamber and the bolt is driving the case mouth into the edge of the receiver as its closing. Recommend black...

Loaded up some 155grn FTX bullets to play with last weekend. Shot well but think I'm now getting excess gas as the bolt was over running the next mag. Funny thing was that it wasn't scratching or denting the cases. Almost polite about it.

$180 demo from the bushnell outlet store. Took the clamp off and installed the arca rail that came with the ball head on that so it clamps in if needed for a rifle without the adapter. Allows the tripod to still fit in the bag. Holds a 16# dpms sass solid.

Pulled mine outta the safe tonight and everytime I'm amazed at how good it feels. Picked up some mlok to arca rail adapters to try it on the new tripod setup. Picked up a Primos Apex trigger carbon tripod and put a $36 ball head on it. All in under $250 for everything.

My 16 is a 563-23xxx. Most of my issues were barrel.

Yep the clamp on SA adjustable. I did have to clearance the bottom when i did the top of the original handgaurd. The clamp screws stick out a bit.

It would be pretty crazy if the 6.5 had a different barrel extension and or receiver than the 308. I need another 6.5 creed like a hole in my head but there's an already unneeded 6.5 ar10 in the safe. If that one was to wander down the road, then maybe the 308 sfar needs a 6.5 sibling.

It is funny that there is zero reports of them in the wild yet. Brownells lists them available for sale.

Missed this. That's an old Galaxy 10 phone. The camera is behind the phone in the provided mount and just high enough to see out of the window. I did pick up an 6ft usb-c cable incase we mounted it to the outside of the sxs with the screen inside.

Maybe the ff kit will knock that burr off the front of that port. 😁

Lol! You need a receiver lapping tool! For 15s and 10s. JK, my favorite thing is finding a forgotten Ar in the back of the safe to pull out and start working on. Maybe it didn't meet accuracy expectations or it just needs updated. A year or two ago I did the same thing with two larue barreled...

If I get my "lightweight" 6.5 ar10 moved this coming year, I'm getting a 6.5 sfar. It's only money and I got to have something to fuss over.

Yep. This is the first time I used more than 1 full (360) wrap of .001" on an Ar. I didn't even have .002" shim stock before the sfar.

By half pieces, I meant half way around the barrel extension and I was going around the bottom of the extension (the half without ports). On normal extensions I do a full wrap with a notch cut to go around the extension pin. For depth, I try to cover as much of the extension as possible without...
