    Federal GMM AR Primers

    Re: Federal GMM AR Primers Sounds like a good deal there, got to give em a shot. I really like that powder, bullet, reloading die and other manufactures are offering items to help curtail some of the "issues" the AR platform has. 8 to 10 years ago, there was next to nothing offered, heck now...

    243 to 1000????

    Re: 243 to 1000???? Yeah, never really pushed it beyond the 600 mark. But that is where the 6.5 Grendel loaded with some 108 Lapuas do the trick.

    What about these CCI BLAZER BULK groups? "100yrd"

    Re: What about these CCI BLAZER BULK groups? Try a trigger and sear kit from clark custom, or volquartsen. Or just stone the sear and trigger up a bit smoother, along with shimming out some of the slop. And a barrel V block ($20) that will hold the barrel up, and stable it a bit will all help...
