Wish I could, but I’m not fortunate enough to afford a chrono as of right now. Wish I could but I can’t justify it.

So much FUD to drown out the good information in this thread lol

I don’t plan on going any higher than the 44gr range. Beyond that you’re just wasting brass life. I’m sure I could go to around 46gr but I don’t think it would benefit me much and again I’d just be killing my brass. But you are right I’m using Varget - Win Brass - CCI 200 primers.

Yea I agree, kind of what I was seeing as well. Again with my OCW and my previous ladder test with this rifle which showed me this node originally. Ill probably just leave it at 44.0gr to leave room for pour/scale error.

Normally the node is around 42.0 and 44.0 from what I've found around the net with these particular rifles. Which is essentially exactly what I found with my personal teting as well.

Yea, I already did the initial OCW @ 100 yards. This is my OCW charge by charge groupings at further range for confirmation and finalization. That being said do you still see the node at 44.0gr?

Not exactly. Tho the group is smaller. Im looking at POI + Spread. Which is similar but center of the top two. But I can see and also could agree 44.0 has the center POI of the lot. 42.4 might be the high end of that node. Again why I'm here to get 3rd part opinions. Not trying to fight you on...

Not sure I'm tracking. Why not? Initial OCW was done around 100 yards and there seemed to indicate a node around 44.0 and 42.0gr. This was the final 5 shot grouping of the 44.0 node sequence at distance. IIRC initial single shot OCW is made at 100 yards. Then followed up with node selection...

Just care to see your thoughts on my final OCW for my 700. Distance @ 300 yards Notes: Tail wind slight left to right picked up during my 4th group. Temp cranked up from 82F to about 92F during the test. So I'm not sure if that explains that last wild group of if that's just a wild...

Pretty simple to figure out. From your OP you said stuck. If it's just not cycling it's a gas issue. The way the rifle functions no gas = no cycle. If you can't pull the bolt manually it's a machining issue. Something isn't right. But if you can manually rack the rifle fine it just...

Just got a message CMMG is sending me a new detent. But now I want to know how to fix this so it doesn't happen again.

Yes it is a home build. I have a 18" barrel with a mid length gas system. This is in 308 not 5.56 and mega via email told me the holes are with in spec for 308 and mid length is optimal for an 16/18" 308 barrel when ported correctly. Which they said all are ported and speced very tightly for...

Well this sucks.. Opened up my lower and out shoots my buffer spring and I watch my buffer fly across the room. Well there is your problem.. (Snapped buffer detent) Simple to figure out the issue.. But why and how did his happen? I've built 8 AR's and this is the first time I've seen...

Yea luckily due to non shooting related events I don't get to go out as much as I use to especially out to LR spots. So my 2lbs has lasted me a bit. Also came across a 8lb of 4895 a few months ago then 2 days later randomly a H335 8 jug showed at my house I guess I ordered but was S/O before I...
