    Slop between upper and lower

    Agree. In my experience movement between the upper and lower does not hurt accuracy or anything else.

    If you could only have one AR platform

    Nice RECCE setup. My shooting buddy has the Burris XTR and really likes it. Here's another pic of mine after a wet and muddy day at a SPR class. Can't disagree with this but, the RECCE configuration is about is close as you can come IMO.

    LMT .308 MWS

    Probably should have included it again.........It's a 18" SS.

    .308 Winchester

    No worries. Opinions and advice are always welcomed. I went up to 43.8grs of the IMR-4064. Never saw any pressure sign. The groups seemed to open up a bit the higher loading I went though. My old Sierra manual lists the max. for this bullet/powder combo as 44.7grs so I have some room to work...

    Chamber Length & Trimming Question

    I'm in the same predicament. My .308 cases are much shorter than what my chamber measures. Not real sure how to handle it. Trim the cases to the shortest length each time you prep cases and let the brass "grow" at each firing? My cases may reach their usable lifespan by the time this occurs.

    Best drag bag

    The above post pretty much nails the reality of the use of drag bags.

    If you could only have one AR platform

    Just one? That would suck but, if I had that only choice I would go with this. Noveske Afghan, suppressed, with the 1.5 x5 Leupold, a backup Aimpoint and as many loaded mags as I could carry.

    LMT .308 MWS

    Badass as usual Trident. As I've said before, you have some of the nicest setups of anyone around.

    Elfster. CHARGEMASTER. Optional. Pen. Straw. Mod. (with pics)

    Hey thanks. Not as big as the pics make it look. I think I can work with that.

    Elfster. CHARGEMASTER. Optional. Pen. Straw. Mod. (with pics)

    elfster1234 Not to derail this thread but, I can't find any footprint / dimensional data on the RCBS Chargemaster combo. RCBS doesn't publish it or any of the vendors that I can find. I'm seriously considering picking up one of these but want to make sure my relatively small bench space can...

    LMT .308 MWS

    I'm using the XH rifle buffer and spring from heavybuffers.com Heavy Buffers | Products Yes the A2 stock from your AR15 will work just fine.

    Varget.....Has anyone seen Varget?

    Yeah that is a good price. Wonder what happened to my back in stock notification email I should have gotten.

    Varget.....Has anyone seen Varget?

    Yeah I think I'd consider that guy an ass but, it is his right I suppose. 2 pounds of powder is not a lot of powder and I'm working on some load development. I've been looking for a month to find it and when I did I bought what I thought would last me until I possibly need more. If they'd of...

    LMT .308 MWS

    I have some Varget loads worked up now for the 175 SMKs. Starting with 43.0 up to 44.00. Waiting on the weather to break and the time to do it. We'll see what happens.

    Varget.....Has anyone seen Varget?

    Walked into a large ACE Hardware yesterday. One that actually has a pretty good gun/sporting goods section but usually very little in the way of reloading components. Wouldn't you know, there sat two pounds of Varget. Bought both of them.

    LMT .308 MWS

    Been trying to come up with the right powder combo for some 175gr SMKs. This is the best I've been able to come up with so far. 41.2gr of IMR 4064. Too slow for my liking.
