    Gunsmithing New barrel with super tight chamber?

    I bought a brand new finished barrel for my AI AE MK3 .308 rifle from a popular dealer. I might reveal the dealer and the brand of barrel later on. An action-proving dummy or a resized brass will not just drop in the chamber, I have to push it in to get it fully chambered. To get it out, I have...

    There is no reason that either of those won't work for you. I have some BMG ammo for sale in the PX, cheap.

    Accuracy International AE UK 308 Barrels 24" - Special Sale!

    This is too good of a deal to pass up, so I just bought another one. I know that guys have these taken off brand new and replaced with other barrels, but I can't imagine that they could be any better than these. I shoot my rifle out to 1000 yards and have absolutely no complaints. I bought the...

    F T/R Competition Bipod for Accuracy International for F-TR

    I use a Sinclair on my AIAE MK3 .308 24" plain bbl. Use the Atlas bipod spigot mount, Atlas bipod "AFAR" kit, and pic rail to sling lug adapter. It is kind of Rube Goldberg, but it works. I think that having a "longer wheelbase" is advantageous over a shorter one.

    It is a standard DPMS M4-style 10 twist barrel that I had cut down.

    sub-sonic .308 load for Bushmaster 308 Hunter with TB 30-P1 suppressor

    The only modification is the Fulton Armory side charging handle which adds a little weight to the bolt carrier group. No gas port enlargement or anything like that. The 30-30 style round nose bullet is the trick. It has a huge bearing surface that allows the bullet to stabilize. You will never...

    Light 50 BMG?

    I just happen to have mine handy. BA-50 with scope, bipod, monopod, carry handle - 33.5#, add 3.8# for full magazine. It is easy to carry using the Barrett handle, it balances almost perfectly. I used to have a BMG upper on an AR-15 lower. It was light, but the recoil was brutal...

    sub-sonic .308 load for Bushmaster 308 Hunter with TB 30-P1 suppressor

    Mine does! LR-308 14" w/AAC Cyclone. 24 grains 4350 powder under a 220 grain 30-30 bullet. I did several mag dumps without a hiccup yesterday. YMMV

    So here is a new idea on shooting groups...

    Or you can take the AR15.com "1 MOA ALL DAY LONG CHALLANGE"! Complete with callouts, but only goes out to 100 yards. THE ARFCOM 1 MOA ALL DAY LONG CHALLENGE - AR15.COM

    howa 1500 .308 rifle

    You can't go wrong with Sierra Match King 175 grain bullets. I used them out to 1000 yds in my Howa 24" .308 1/10. Now I use them in my AI-AE 24" 1/12 at 2670 ft/sec MV. Fairlane.....Are you sure that your barrel is 1/12? I am almost positive that all Howa .308s are 1/10. Look here: Legacy...

    Such thing as a rifle that just will not shoot ?

    I once had a Remington 700 Mountain Rifle in 7mm mag. I tried everything, factory ammo, several different bullets and powders, nothing worked. I decided that I was spending too much time on it, so I sold it and cut my losses.

    custom rifle accuracy vs standard factory vs high end factory

    AI-AE MK3. I removed it from the box, switched my scope, rings and all from the old rifle, slapped on a Harris bipod, used some of the loads made for the old rifle, shot a few rounds at 100 and 300 for zero. A week later, I was hitting a man-sized target at 1000 yds. in a F-T/R match.

    Howa 1500 LA take off barrel

    I have read that it is a real bitch removing the barrel from a Howa. To the point that most smiths will cut it off close to the receiver, then bore it out real thin to make it easy. You might have trouble finding one.
