    Burr from flash hole .DPMS 5.56 barrel

    Re: Burr from flash hole .DPMS 5.56 barrel Well I went back and looked at a number of the groups I have logged in my binder for my AR and I noticed that when I shot 3 or 5 shot groups without changing my hold on the gun that my groups were .5" on average?? I compared the groups to the ones...

    Burr from flash hole .DPMS 5.56 barrel

    Re: Burr from flash hole .DPMS 5.56 barrel Thats some good info. I do recall holding the stock a little firmer against my shoulder on one of my best 5 shot groups that were fire a little faster than I normally fire so I guess I kept my form the same. I guess I will get back out to the bench...

    Burr from flash hole .DPMS 5.56 barrel

    Re: Burr from flash hole .DPMS 5.56 barrel The problem is that it shoots 3/8" , 5/8",3/4" and up to 1.5" groups with the same ammo with the same outdoor weather conditions and the same methods of shooting. And I didn't just start shooting last week so it's not like it's my first rodeo at the...

    Burr from flash hole .DPMS 5.56 barrel

    Re: Burr from flash hole .DPMS 5.56 barrel I'm going to try a few more test groups at the lower power setting and do some at 20X to compare them. I have the scope dialed in where it is paralex free. Guess I will just have to put some more time in at the range..This gun give me a fricken headache

    Burr from flash hole .DPMS 5.56 barrel

    I am new to the AR platform scene and I have a couple questions. I recently put a new 20" DPMS 1:9 twist 5.56 on my bushmaster. Before I shot it I did the standard cleaning in the tube and felt the patches sticking. My buddy that is very familiar with AR's, assembled the gun for me and was with...

    Gunsmithing CZ 22 Hornet mag modification??

    I bought a CZ 22 Hornet a couple years back and could not load any pointed bullets because of the clip being so short. I could only load the rounded 45gr "Hornet" bullets and I just couldn't get it to shoot all that good with factory ammo(except for the WIN supreme 45 gr...And I'm not paying...

    223 Handi rifle???

    Re: 223 Handi rifle??? I see where your coming from on the fact that it's not a target rifle I guess it's just hard to own a gun that wont print groups that are at least "On the Line" of the 1" moa(redneck OCD). I have found a load of 52gr Nos BT's that grouped some 1.5" groups. I guess...
