    What can cause accuracy to fall apart at 700 yards?

    No Mike, I'm using the 178 HPBT, no problems with accuracy until I go beyond 600. I think some of these guys are on to something, it maybe destabilizing even though it has plenty of velocity. I'm going to try some 168 ELDs to see how they fair. The BC is good enough to get out to 1K. I might...

    MOA all the way baby! Seriously it's MOA/MOA, I never switched over. Maybe that's the problem 😆...

    What can cause accuracy to fall apart at 700 yards?

    It is, I mentioned it before. The previous barrel was 1/10 from the same manufacturer, Lother Walther. The only difference is the previous barrel was SS and this one is not, this one is CM and factory nitrided.

    What can cause accuracy to fall apart at 700 yards?

    I thought about this and probably will try something else but if a barrel doesn't like something it shows up close or at least that's been my experience. This barrel groups well with this bullet just not beyond 600...lol

    That SS one I had was absolutely the best. It shot like a custom bolt gun! I was sad as shit when she burnt out....

    What can cause accuracy to fall apart at 700 yards?

    It a Lother Walther Medium HB, basically the T profile but in 18 inches with RLGS. This is the chromoly nitride. The last one was stainless. I have about 260 rounds on it. I just checked their site, it's the Vartac...

    What can cause accuracy to fall apart at 700 yards?

    Thanks Sinister for the JBM, I've used the 178 HPBT in an 18 inch LW 1/10 since forever . I'm thinking this new barrel is the culprit. It's a LW 1/10 too but something just isn't right. I have about 260 rounds on it and the first one took a while to come in but by time I started shooting at...

    What can cause accuracy to fall apart at 700 yards?

    178s handloads, velocity is (memory is about 2520) not home at the moment. Factory 178s is the same velocity give or take about 30 fps. Shot at 850ish ASL in 75 degree weather. Barrel is an 18 inch 1/10. The old barrel was a hammer out to 1K . No issues going transonic....

    What can cause accuracy to fall apart at 700 yards?

    So before anyone asks, yes I know how to drive a semi and specifically a large frame. I’ve been doing it with great success for 20+ years. I rebarreled said rifle about two years ago with a LW 1/10, I really didn’t get a chance to get behind the rifle a lot because of work. I retired last year...

    Armalite AR10A TAC 18

    Yeah, my oldest one started out as T. I cut the barrel down three times before I burned it out. I doesn't look anything like the old T. It still has the T profile barrel but down to 18 inches. If I didn't want to get another set of mags I'd jump all over that deal but I have a couple of dozen of...

    Armalite AR10A TAC 18

    Armalite is very under rated, most that turn up their nose at them would be shocked to know how much is shared between them and LMT & KAC. Marketing is a real thing.... I never had an Armalite that wasn't accurate and reliable and many have passed through my hands. I still have two large frames...
