    Is Lapua Brass a waste of money for an AR-15?

    Re: Is Lapua Brass a waste of money for an AR-15? Do you resize the body each time and full neck size? If so, don't you lose some of the advantages of good brass?

    New AR-15 build

    I just got my rifle back from Gunsmiths Inc (Tim Ward) who upgarded my Les Baer AT-15 Police Special. I had Tim replace the barrel with a Krieger barrel with 1-7.7 twist.

    GAP 3/8 MOA Guarantee fiction or reality?

    Re: GAP 3/8 MOA Guarantee fiction or reality? The chrony was set about 4 feet from the muzzle. I was having a problem with the plastic sun-shades being blown off the chrony when I shot, but had that corrected by the time I shot the last string above. It could be the chrony.

    GAP 3/8 MOA Guarantee fiction or reality?

    Re: GAP 3/8 MOA Guarantee fiction or reality? well the FPS numbers are what the chrony reported and calculated. I measured each load to exactly 41 grains. I was using brand new brass and maybe that had an effect. I don't know why I had a stddev of 63.54.
