    Verge of breakdown

    There was a ton of great advice just on this single post of crying for help. Frank I did just that - turned the gas system off - and my groups were identical to those of my bolt gun. That leads me to believe that my follow through, or shall I say like thereof, was most likely the key this...

    Great information Elfster. I also read your other linked post. I would love to get into reloading - but I value my life and my wife would most certainly take it if I spend more time playing with toys! I've tried to get her into shooting with me, I've tried to get her to try archery with me...

    I've got the PRS and what I feel is a good cheek weld. I'm not having to search for edge to edge sight picture and I don't feel any strain in my neck. Besides ammo, ArmyJerry was using a QD mount, that's interesting since I'm using a GG&G AccuCam QD mount. While it doesn't feel like it's...

    Jumped the gun

    That explains it! We don't have SpinD up here in South Dakota. Does the Hide offer it?!

    You're right, I should have started with the correct terminology, but I'm glad everyone knows the gist of what I'm ranting about! We'll have to compare notes as I plan to hit the range on Thursday. I hope to incorporate the advice I've received thus far into the next session. Not at all at...

    Scout - I wish it were that easy, but however you look at it, the investment was made and she's here to stay. Unless someone wants to make an offer I can't refuse...lol.

    5 round 308 Pmag?

    The last few posts have provided some good intel on Midwest PX. My mags were done quite some time ago and I can't say with 100% certainty if Ty still does this service. I would assume so, but nevertheless, give him a shout and confirm. Here are some pics of the work he's done for me: LR20...

    Jumped the gun

    I have to admit I jumped the gun and posted an item for sale and started my own thread before really introducing myself! My bad! I'll take the heat from the Hide's veterans! I've been a member/stalker since 2008. I admit I was soaking in as much information as I can before I posted...

    5 round 308 Pmag?

    +1 for MidWest PX. I sent him 4 of my LR20s. I had 2 different cuts - one was a stubby that was nearly flush with the magazine well and the other was cut at the first rib line keeping the "aesthetics" of the magazine. Turn around was quick and quality was top notch. I've never had a issue...

    I'm using Black Hills Ammo 175gr .308 Match. I've used their ammo, and I admit, only their ammo, in my bolt gun so I figured it should be just as good in my gasser! Each rifle (bolt and gas) has a different lot number, so I'm anal about the lot being put through each rifle. Maybe that could...

    So I've been a member here for several years and never had the courage or guts or whatever to post or ask anything. I guess you could say I was creeping around similar to FaceBook. Today I'm at my wits end. Not that I'm trying to impress anyone, as most of you will have many more war stories...
