    Wilson Combat barrels

    I have 2 of their barrels that I put on lightweight builds. One is a fluted 16" Recon, the other is a 16" Ultralight Hunter. The Recon just bugholes, the Hunter is about an MOA gun, Both have good, smooth bores & don't foul much. Bought both on sale for under $200.............really didn't know...

    20" White Oak Krieger "New Owners" Build & Test

    Are they still using Wilson's for their house barrels? Why didn't you get on of those? Unless they really screw up the chambering, I'd expect the Krieger's & Shilen's to shoot. Keep posting your results; this is great info. MM

    Who Makes Thermal Fit Stripped Uppers?

    I like Cross a lot, as well as SanTan.............w/o doubt my 2 favorites. My experience with the CMT fit is the same as yours, SanTan, slightly tighter. Neither close to BCM. I've used a lot of BCM, probably more than anything else, mainly because of cost, but the fit & finish of the CMT &...

    Looking for an an affordable and accurate AR-15

    With a capable gun, if you aren't handloading, you will also need capable factory ammo. in 55gr loads, both the Hornady 55 V-max & the ADI 55 Sierra BK are good; I don't buy either regularly as I handload both bullets, but the factory ammo I have shot of both are decent. In a heavier bullet...

    Ridgeline Defense RD-15 LPR

    Looks like nicely put-together piece, with some very nice features. But I don't think I'll be shit-canning my Knight's LPR anytime soon though. That is maybe the best all around AR I've ever had. MM

    Which is the best AR-10 without barrel deflection: the Geissele MRGG or the Seekins SP10M?

    Amen to that brother. MM

    Precision AR -15 10 shot moa groups

    I understand your point, not sure you understand mine or maybe just don't want to. Using a barrel from a reliably known, generally accepted as accurate, source simply removes, or minimizes, one of the biggest factors in shooting small & consistent groups. Obviously, the ones you mentioned are...

    AR15 magazine recommendations

    Lancers preferred, I like the metal lips; Gen 3 Pmags are fine, Gen 2's have never given me any problems either. MM

    LaRue MBT is still an option at $115?

    I like Geiselle's better, but the LaRue's work, especially if you clean up the surfaces a little bit & but in a lighter hammer spring. Depends on your price point & expectations. YMMV MM

    Precision AR -15 10 shot moa groups

    I can't agree with that at all, if you're serious about attempting to shoot small groups, new shooter or not. A high quality barrel from a known good & reliable source, takes one major variable off the table when you start trying to figure out what your problems are. Obviously, you can't fully...

    Precision AR -15 10 shot moa groups

    Old thread, timeless topic. Much more than just the gun when shooting 10 shot groups, even with a capable gun & capable ammo. Concentration & technique become paramount. Mainting cheek weld & consistent sight picture is very hard over 10 shots with a gas gun, even with bags like the Bull's...

    Who Makes Thermal Fit Stripped Uppers?

    Add Cross Machine Tool to your list. I don't really know how much thicker they are than BCM, but they are very nice uppers & IMHO, are lightly thermal fit (as is SanTan), compared to BCM, which is very tightly thermal fit. CMT Upper

    Anyone else seem to find the Sierra 77 gr TMK bc fall short from claimed?

    Has anyone done any testing on the Berger 80.5gr Fullbore bullet for either BC confirmation or terminal performance? In an 8 twist? In a 7 twist? MM

    Best flow through suppressor

    I don't have the Flow 556k, but I do have the 556Ti, so I cannot compare the 2, but IMHO, the 556Ti still needs ear pro for more than a few rounds. Pew data, if you can believe it, shows the Ti version to have better sound suppression than the Flow 556k version. I also have the 762Ti but have...
