I have 5 rifle barrels I need to figure out how to store properly. Humidity is a huge problem where I live, and I'm constantly knocking rust off of guns, spraying stuff down with barricade, and have dehumidifiers all over the place. 3 of them are sealed in plastic bags from the factory so I...
I'm thinking I'll see if I can send the barrel back to have them determine if it's out of spec. Funny enough, talking to a friend that just built 3 ar10s in different calibers, the only one that isn't performing as expected out of the gate has a Rainier barrel on it. It doesn't sound like it's...
I'll take some when I can. I looked at the crown when I pulled the muzzle device off and it looked normal. Lots of build up at the muzzle, but nothing changed when I cleaned it up and shot it with the comp removed entirely. Just a big poi shift but no accuracy improvement. The groups today were...
I made the load BCP posted above to see what it would do just for something to try. 4 shots at 2.71 moa. I let a friend shoot his hand loads that work well in his rifle out of mine (berger 185s), and 3 shots measured 2.47 moa on that one. We single loaded everything as I did last time on both...
I can borrow a 6.5 ar10 from a friend that is well proven to test my shooting ability with it. That might be a simple way to see if I'm influencing something. I was hoping the other shooter from today would see different results, since he's more experienced than me, and also "gets on the gun"...
Thats one 8 shot group. I had to come off the gun each time to load individually for that test. There are actually 5 rounds in the bottom 3. It shot the 3 high shots first, then the group moved down for the last 5.
I did some additional testing today. I shot 8 rounds of berger 175s loading each round individually to control for the ejector issue mentioned above and it shot right at 1 inch over 8 shots. Picture attached. I only marked 6 shots because the other two were in the same holes as 2 of the other...
Would there be a visible case sign to look for or would I just need to do it and see what happens? Can you elaborate on this some? What is fundamentally different about shooting an ar10 vs a bolt gun or ar15?
I tried some 168 gmm when I first built the gun. I didn't know I had a problem back then so I didn't pay much attention to exactly what it shot, but I know it was over an inch. I don't recall seeing any wild flyers, but it wasn't sub moa. I remember thinking it was odd that round didn't group...
