    .284 win ar-10

    Re: .284 win ar-10 Thanx for alll the replies. I knew of the saum but figured the 284 with the head size would be DIYable. If I use the 284 would some mag tweakin and an adj gas block make it work with a little tweakin?

    Long Range 30 cal chamberings

    Re: Long Range 30 cal chamberings Uhhhh have you tried making sure the gun will shoot? You are dealing with a known performer(bullets, case and gun). If it isnt working well maybe there is a problem. I would check scope bedding etc before I threw away a known performance combo. The route you...
