still available? Potentially interested. Payment method? Everything from the box is still with the buttstock? Interested in one, possibly two - pending.

Spife, I believs the 260AI is going to burn barrels a bit on it's own. I supposed 500 is quite a lot. However, for any amount of shooting, I can see wanting atleast 150-200 loaded at given time. Factored with most brass buys are in 100 or 1000 piece lots. I see the gmbc tubes are $130-140...

I was wanting to do about 500 brass. Is it really worth an expensive barrel? I have no prior experience with burning up barrels, to make brass. However, I have heard the moderate fireforming loads can be decently accurate. More insight please? Thank you

I was thinking that a cheap(very cheap) barrel blank, such as a green mountains barrel.. with an extremely short throat, would be ideal for fireforming? Buy up a bunch of seconds/blemished 26cal bullets and jam them. Would this "safely work" for fireforming say... alpha, peterson, adg or any...

I have found some gasblocks and barrel dimples.. do not line up properly.. I normally measure the edge of gasblock to port. Then, use a sharpie or white grease pen to mark 'guide lines' on the barrel. So I get the gasport lined up with the gasblock. I mark centerline of the barrel gasport on...

I am considering trading off my ar308. Just for insight, tell me what you guys think. It is an early run of the mega arms maten. Mkm extended receiver set, no less. Is rifle length gas system with a 10oz heavy buffer&moe rifle stock. Has some grovtec limited slip cups. Criterion hybrid...

Are you certain the parts stackup is correct? Such as, if you are using the m4 'carbine' receiver extension, you need need the proper dpms ar308 carbine buffer. However, using the a5 length receiver extension will allow using the ar15 h3 carbine buffer. Make sure nothing is binding or...

They could help a fool get set up for high end swaging much like bart and the other small guys? Jlk is gone now... to better ranges. I am interested to suit my own desires. Calibers and weights.

First, if this is the wrong subforum.. I appologise. Please fix that. So, who hand swages? Is this a lost art? Where could a person purchase custom dies from? Please learn me in any/all matters of this subject field. Experience, insight, opinion, fact, descriptive writings. All things...

Any updates on this?

Appreciated. Any other insight?

Interesting. I read one of those. Seemed like the barrel had no feed cone in it. I believe the resolve was a proper feed cone and polishing the ramps? Also, i thought the 110 was unhappy about jump difference? Do you happen to recall the thread name?

Ok, looking for insight... Gas guns tend to lose brass, so.. will starline 6mm creed brass perform well? A couple of guys at long range hunting form say it works well enough. Will I be able to get .75moa consistently with the starline case? What about lifespan? It is rather cheap and they also...

Appreciated. Thinking I will try my hand at the green mountain blanks. Found some threads where a few people said the barrels shot well. This is a garage project.. hobby if you will. Kind of looking for load datas from other gals and guys running the 6mm creed in the AR. Thinking a JP 'HP'...

That is quite a lot of money.. also, it is a 1:9 twist. The berger calculator was saying I needed at minimum 1:8 and a 1:7.5 was better. Figured a flat 1:7 would be ideal for the lower speeds a gas gun produces. Is it really /that/ good? Seems like lot of problem waiting to happen..
