    AR 223/5.56 match rifle questions

    Service rifle shooters are getting 1/2 to 3/4 MOA out of their rifles. I have shot through barrels from both white oak and accurate and reliable rifles that held sub MOA out to 600 yds with handloads. These are heavy 20" tubes. I use 24.0 gr of reloader 15 in LC or Win brass topped with a 77gr...

    Level scope using iphone

    I use iLevel to set the cant on my iron sights for my highpower and palma rifles. It gets them pretty damn close to zero wind.

    Where's the Skid Plates

    The laces will not negatively affect your accuracy. They help hold it on much better thanjust the Velcro. Go to a Palma match and see all the high masters running different versions of mirage bands on their rifles. They are taped, glued, strung, zip tied, you name it. These guys shoot better on...

    Barrel fluting - what is it good for?

    I don't normally have a dog in this type of fights, and I don't have ANY fluted barrels. Three years ago I shot the Winsconsin HP state championship on the same target as Boots Obermeyer. Boots had a model 70 match rifle (probably older than I am) with a heavy barrel with SERIOUS fluting. I did...

    Eliseo Tube Gun Action - Pierce or Defiance? Need advice.

    I have a pierce long action in an RTM. Mr. Pierce ground me a completely circular recoil lug. It is not glued in. Chad Dixon did my barrel work and put it all together. The rifle is simply a hammer. My 6x47 barrel shoots 3/8 moa and my 308 palma barrel shot a 150-14x at 800 a few months ago...

    NEW Fat Bastard in 18x1 and 18x1.5

    Sounds good. I'll send you the 308 barrel from my sako when I spin on the other barrel I have getting chambered. There is a notch in the top of the factory barrels that will allow you to indicate without the barrel on the rifle.

    NEW Fat Bastard in 18x1 and 18x1.5

    Great work. Now do I have to send it to you guys to get it timed for my TRG or do I use a crush washer or something of that sort?

    RRA LAR-8 Any advice?

    I have had two AR-10 custom builds and my LAR-8 is hands down a better shooter. It loves the 175 SMK at high speed. I am able to get 2650 comfortably from my 20" barrel without pressure signs. I don't shoot groups on paper, but at 300-650 yards on steel plate I am able to call my shots reliably...

    New build for the 6.5 Grendel Wildcat fans... 6mm Fat Rat

    Nice write up. I've had Lee do a couple of service rifle uppers for me and they were both shooters. He is a small shop, but im guessing that if people here realize how well these Fat Rats do and how easy it is to deal with Lee (he answers his phone!) that he will be building a ton of them. He is...

    RRA owner passed away yesterday.

    He was not. This was unexpected. Keep them in your prayers.

    KRG Whiskey 3 Chassis-Let's See Them

    Anyone know the current back order on these? I am thinking about getting a build going for one of them. I really like the spigot mount and how close to the barrel that lets me get an atlas bipod.

    Rock River Arms ATH Carbine

    Re: Rock River Arms ATH Carbine I have shot three of the bunch we have for use on our farms. They are consistently accurate. I have not done any torture or serious reliability tests, but my experience with RRA has been excellent on other models as well. My load is 24.0 of RL15 with a 77gr...

    Any tactical competitions around Illinois?

    Re: Any tactical competitions around Illinois? Illinois has the best civilian service rifle team in the country and some world class highpower shooters. Also one of the best Junior programs as well. Although the state has some horrible firearm laws, not all is lost.

    Re: Match grade barrels for AR-15 under $300 I've had great luck with WOA. Three barrels from them so far, all have been shooters. I shoot CMP and NRA Highpower.
