    GAP Gladius accuracy testimonials?

    Re: GAP Gladius accuracy testimonials? So, for anyone who has one of these, how does it carry? I'm looking to put together an all around gun, and I'm curious how the stock on it lends itself to carrying it comfortably for extended periods.

    Accuracy International questions

    Re: Accuracy International questions I picked up an AW a while ago on deployment, and checking it over after taking it to the range I was surprised to notice the stock sides don't run flush along the forearm block. They ride inwards along the bottom a bit exposing maybe a 1/4 inch of the...

    Re: La Rue OBR 7.62 18" My 18" OBR is so-so with Black Hills, but it shoots ridiculously tiny groups with 168gr Hornady TAP.

    Accuracy trouble during breakin. Advice needed.

    Re: Accuracy trouble during breakin. **SOLVED** I had GAP build me an AR with an 18" .260 Bartlein barrel. Shot it while I was home on leave. I used three different bullet weights, and the best group I got was well over an inch. Until I get done with this deployment and have time to get...

    Straight behind the rifle

    Re: Straight behind the rifle Awesome. A few years ago myself and a another member from here were shooting at around 500 in the snow. The target was whited completely out about half the time, probably got six inches in about 3 or 4 hours. It's not as comfortable as a June day at the range...

    Re: Should I trade my "M40A5" build for a AW? My M40A1 is a freaking laser, but after getting my AW I'm thinking about selling the old girl for an AX.

    What's Your First Gun Related Purchase For 2012

    Re: What's Your First Gun Related Purchase For 2012 AI AW .308 with S&B 3-12 PMII. I'm liking it enough I think I might need one in .260 and a .338. This hobby is extremely good at keeping me poor.

    .260 w/ 16" barrel?

    Re: .260 w/ 16" barrel? I just built one with an 18" barrel, on the theory that it will still shoot flatter than a .308 with the same length barrel. If your only reason for a shorter barrel is to save on weight, you might consider fluting or a slimmer barrel contour.
