    Help reading the tea leaves, er, targets

    Take off the bipod and use a front sand bag (a Bull's Bag and rear bag help with lateral stability and minimize left-right roll). Try a benchrest target. You quarter the aiming square with your crosshairs and off-set your group so the aiming point is consistent. This is a 10-shot 308 group...

    LMT wins MRGG-A

    Remington got the PSR contract and SOCOM canceled it. The next great leap was the Barrett MK22. The Army once again is exercising USSOCOM's government's contract option and adopted the multi-caliber Barrett to replace the Remington 2010. USASOC benefits because the Army now buys their...

    LMT wins MRGG-A

    Do NOT confuse US Army Special Operations Command units with the Regular Army. The Army WILL provide USASOC units with whatever the service's weapons are, BY LAW. Arms rooms will have M17s, M7s (eventually, if USASOC does not refuse them and stays with M4A1s and M110s. The Army isn't going to...

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

    Their new barrel maker and gunsmith is retired USAMU Staff Sergeant Ben Cleland. Ben fired the first-ever perfect score of 800 with a service rifle at the 2019 Charlie Smart Memorial Regional in Oak Ridge, Tennessee on 1 June 2019.

    SR25 Upper Compatibility

    Needed some tapping when new. I think the surface anodizing inside the upper holes needed just a little polishing.

    Looking for an an affordable and accurate AR-15

    You can get a brand-new White Oak varmint barrel (16-22 inches) installed into your current upper for way less than $650 for a new rifle. Then again the Rock River gets you a whole new rifle.

    There's your problem. How far are you taking these prairie dogs?

    Looking for an an affordable and accurate AR-15

    Does the TAC3 not shoot well enough? If it doesn't I would consider handloads, a good barrel, a good trigger, and a good scope and mount.

    Groups are to small

    Here's some trivia: March 31st, 2017 500-Round Group at 300 Meters — Now That’s a Test! For load development, some guys shoot 3-shot groups. Other guys shoot 5-shot groups, or even 10-shot strings. But for testing its projectiles, Sierra Bullets takes it to another level entirely. A while...

    Need some advice, occasional failure to extract JP AR10

    Most Hornady anything has not impressed me. They are certainly original and innovative but their QC has never (in my own, singular personal experience) been consistent.

    Brass for precision Semi-Autos.

    General National Match M14 practice was four or five firings and that case is done. 7.62 ARs are generally better, not having piston-driven primary extraction.

    Griffin Enhanced Gas Pocket BCG

    I have the Griffin Mil-Spec suppressor carrier in a 14.5" M4gery with an Allen Engineering M4 Gordy can. Haven't shot it a lot but it does seem to deliver. Haven't tried it on a mid-length with Knight's QD-PRG yet.
