    SR-25 build - First 308 AR

    Care to tell where you got them? Even being a pinned 20, it's better than the regular 10s.

    Nice work! Awesome build! I'm jealous of that magazine. :(

    Nice, I'm assuming your upper isn't complete yet?

    SR-25 build - First 308 AR

    This picture is a little better. I cut it as close to the trigger as I could. I started the groove with a triangle shaped file, and got to the final depth with, believe it or not, a hacksaw blade. The groove is just deep enough to keep the spring flush with where I cut the front of the trigger...

    I got it to work. I filed/polished about .035 off the front of the hammer, and made a groove for the spring. Works great!

    SR-25 build - First 308 AR

    Did you get your trigger in yet? I got my Geissele SSA today, and could not get it to work. I got everything in, but the trigger would not release the hammer. I'm pretty sure the part of the trigger well with the pencil lines needs to be machined out to allow the trigger travel needed to...

    Barrel installation question?

    I thought I did my research, but maybe not. My SR25 is just an upper and lower receiver that needs to be built into a complete rifle. I ordered an UltraMatch barrel with a DPMS barrel extension already installed. I will be using a JP bolt and carrier. I was under the impression this would work...

    Barrel installation question?

    I found these specs online, I don't know if the source is legit though. My extension measures a 1.186-1.1865 in diameter, where as the print shows 1.188. I will try to give Rainier a call today.

    Good point!

    Barrel installation question?

    I have a KAC SR25 upper that needs to have a barrel installed. The barrel I got is from Rainier Arms, a 16" Ultra Match. The barrel is about 1-2 thousands of an inch bigger than the opening in the receiver. The question I have is would it be okay to freeze the barrel and heat the receiver...

    Jamesbern, did you look at/consider a JP Enterprises bolt and barrel assembly before going with the Lilja setup? Just curious. I should be getting my KAC receiver set next week.

    I'll be watching this thread. I'm in CT too, and got my name on a list with Greyson's Guns. Hoping for a call soon.

    Which 223 die set for "plinking" ammo

    Could you guys recommend me a die set for making just general range ammo on my Hornady progressive? I will only be loading ammo for my ar-15, I don't have or plan to get a 223 bolt gun. Are small base dies preferred for my application? Thanks!
