    Help with cheap 6.5 Grendel upper accuracy issues

    I went out for a short while today. Some improvement, but still needs more work. I checked the barrel nut, and scope mounts, everything was good. It seemed as the barrel warned up the accuracy got worse. The bottom group was the first. I then made some adjustments on the scope. The second...

    Help with cheap 6.5 Grendel upper accuracy issues

    Help with cheap 6.5 Grendel upper accuracy issues

    Thanks for the great recommendations. I'll be checking tightness on everything and trying a different optic and ammo. If that doesn't help I'll reach out to PSA.

    Help with cheap 6.5 Grendel upper accuracy issues

    I recently purchased an 18 inch 6.5 Grendel complete upper from PSA. The fit and finish are good as well as reliability, however I can’t say the same for its accuracy. With Hornady Black 123 gr ELD I was getting about 3 MOA. Basic build info is CMMG lower receiver parts kit and a Viper Vortex...

    Home made reload/work bench

    It's not very big, but it does fit in the space requirements, fills the need, and its inexpensive. All together I think I paid about $250 at Lowe's.

    Gunsmithing What to do with my stock?

    So here is my dilemma, I got a new Bell and Carlson Medalist Varmint Stock for my Turkish Mauser 98, but it doesn’t exactly fit. I after buying it I was told the stock only fits the commercial Mausers and not the military ones. I really don’t want to waste a good stock, so do I send it to the...

    Full length resizing issue

    Re: Full length resizing issue Thanks for the advice guys, Ill be getting the RCBS case remover and using extra case lube from now on. I guess it doesn't pay to be stingey with case lube:( Would it help to tumble before resizing?

    Re: Full length resizing issue Case is still in there, not sure how to get it out. Should I just chuck this one up as a loss?

    Full length resizing issue

    I'm using a Lee single stage press and Lee Dies(full resizing). My process is something like this, first I grab 5 to 10 brass shoot them with Horndy One Shot, resize then tumble and so on. During my last batch of .223 I had several (5% to 10%) that would not easily pop out the primer, I didn't...
