    Is this a good grouping for a gas gun?

    Re: Is this a good grouping for a gas gun? Well that shows my ignorance, from what I read anything longer than 20" was a waste as the powder is already expended. What is the best length of barrel for .308?

    Is this a good grouping for a gas gun?

    Re: Is this a good grouping for a gas gun? Finally got to try my skills on longer ranges. Well I was told the target I was shooting at was 500 yds (this was the farthest I could find with my 10x. It was a silhouette and the shoulder span was exactly the distance between 2 mil dots. It was up...

    Hardcore Copper Solvents vs. your aluminum upper?

    Re: Hardcore Copper Solvents vs. your aluminum upper? Most Windex now days does not have ammonia, since ammonia harms window tint (softens the adhesive). I know that its common practice to "rinse" the bore and action with Windex after shooting corrosive ammo so I was just speculating that...

    Is this a good grouping for a gas gun?

    Re: Is this a good grouping for a gas gun? Yeah the chambers on .308 rifles are supposed to be "tighter" for better accuracy. Supposedly, 7.62 rifles are supposed to be looser for better reliability at a cost in accuracy. But all my research tells me that the cartridge is externally identical...

    Hardcore Copper Solvents vs. your aluminum upper?

    I have a Remmy R-25 (DPMS LR-308) that likes to copper foul. I have found that Barnes CR-10 works awesome at removing it. The issue is you cant leave it in over 15 minutes and I hear that ammonia based solvents are bad for aluminum (upper receiver). So the question is, how do you avoid getting...

    Is this a good grouping for a gas gun?

    Re: Is this a good grouping for a gas gun? I can understand your doubts. But here is the scenario as it unfolded. I have had trouble getting rid of copper fouling. Hoppes and Tetra didnt do sheet. I was told Bass Pro had one that was recommended by a local shop. I couldnt find the one they...

    Is this a good grouping for a gas gun?

    Re: Is this a good grouping for a gas gun? Well one thing is for sure, my rig does not like the 7.62/175 grain. The groups opened up double over the 308/168! If the only benefit to the 7.62 is the annealed case then its not worth the higher price...

    Is this a good grouping for a gas gun?

    Re: Is this a good grouping for a gas gun? On Palmetto State Armory's website they list a 7.62/NATO Federal Gold Medal Match 175 grain and a .308 Federal Gold Medal Match 175 grain, whats the difference? Does Federal load the 7.62 to a higher pressure or are they basically the same round just...

    Is this a good grouping for a gas gun?

    Re: Is this a good grouping for a gas gun? So if you can hit a quarter first shot at 100 yards every time, and a quarter is around 7/8" would that make the rifle sub MOA at least? Do these count as head shots? LOL

    Is this a good grouping for a gas gun?

    Re: Is this a good grouping for a gas gun? Ok so the second picture has the best line up of tape on the farthest apart group right? Which looks like around 7/8". So 7/8" as a decimal is 0.875" - 0.30" = 0.575", so just over 1/2" which would translate to just over 1/2 MOA since it was 100...

    So I found a cartridge my gun is in love with! 100 yards, from the bi-pod, 168 grain Federal Gold Metal Match BTHP, 3 round groups. With a quarter instead of tape: So is grouping measured from the outside edge of the two farthest spread, or center to center of the widest spread, or...
