    Night Vision Thermal for coyote hunting

    I know this question probably gets asked a lot, but from my searching around I kept coming up with a Pulsar that is no longer made. Kansas just allowed using thermals for coyote hunting for 3 months of the year. Looking to get into a 2-3k budget thermal but have no idea what to even look for...

    Lr-308 build gas and feeding issues

    Thanks, Ill keep all this in mind trying new loads for it. Yeah they are. I noticed that but I guess I forgot about it. They are not all dinged up tho so that is great.

    Lr-308 build gas and feeding issues

    I mean I like that the brass is falling there. I don't have to go find it. Just off that chart shown above that is not where the cases are suppose to be going. Ill try the OEM spring next time. Probably 100 so far on the barrel. The lower and bolt came from an LR-308 that someone took apart to...

    Lr-308 build gas and feeding issues

    I do not currently have an adjustable gas block. They are currently 3 - 4 weeks out. I plan on getting one when they finaly come in stock. But the signs shown from the rifle right now seem to say its over gassed yet under gassed right now.

    Lr-308 build gas and feeding issues

    Got the 6.5oz buffer and spring in from Heavy Buffers. Got some 168 gr FGMM ammo from my cousin and took the rifle out to test it. Ammo fed fine into the rifle. I'm starting to wonder if my hand loads were causing the problem. the 168 gr are 2.8" long and I had my 175 gr hand loads a 2.81" long...

    Lr-308 build gas and feeding issues

    I was thinking it was short stroking when it dented the case. After it did this with two rounds(they were not back to back) I started single feeding them. And don't remember it not locking back, but I cant say that I paid attention to if it locked back on the bolt catch or the mag follower.

    Lr-308 build gas and feeding issues

    I did get a hold of Rainer Arms. They said they are being produced and no ETA on when they will be available. I plan on getting an adjustable gas block whenever I can get my hands on one.

    Lr-308 build gas and feeding issues

    Ill keep that in mind, probably going to mess with buffer and spring first before I start hacking up a part that is hard to find. Ive thought about it. Thinking about ordering up one of Heavy Buffers 6.5oz buffer with springs. They say its best for suppressed rifles. And I cant see myself not...

    6.5 Grendel what barrel?

    I don't expect a huge change with a new barrel. I never could get this to shoot under 1" (I have a LR-308 that I built around the same time that I cant shoot under an inch with either) I'm guessing I don't have them either tuned quite right or there is a fundamental between a bolt action and a...
