    Experiences with 6.5 Creedmoor in a gas gun

    I've had 3 1x8 Creedmoor barrels on gas guns and they all actually seemed to like the 123 gr stuff better than the 140 gr stuff. My current barrel shoots 123 Amax or SMK's as good if not better than 140's.

    Hunting comps?

    I believe I'd try the Kies if I could find one.

    Hunting comps?

    I want to hunt deer this year with my 308 and/or 6.5 CM ARs, but often there is not time for hearing protection when hunting deer. What would you guys recommend as a muzzle device to replace the comp I target shoot with that will be softer on the ears?

    new mega build fails go gauge but champers round?!

    Grease up the bolt and start firing it- maybe with a string around the trigger for the first few shots :)

    556 NATO Chambering VS 223 Wylde 18" Rifle Length -

    If you are wanting to use it for 3 gun, the micro dot will put you in open class and you may not want to go there. That leaves the best option is a 1x ? scope. 1x8 Swaro is great, but pricey. I have a 1x6 SWFA that is working well for 3 gun. I had a 1x4 before and the 6 power is really nice...

    Recommended buffer setup for 260 & 308 builds?

    JP Silent Capture. Add a heat sink to those JP barrels btw.

    Any LR 308 Pmags showing up?

    I've seen plenty of 30 round ar15 pmags at local gun stores in B'ham for $14.99. Can't recall seeing any 20 rounders in stock lately though.

    JP Adjustable Gas Block - AR-10 Specific

    Looks interesting. Wont fit the JP barrel i just bought though. I wish they had it and the Syrac in a .936 model.

    Ar 22 barrel

    Would like to shoot to 200 yards but I have other 22's for that anyway. I have looked at the Taccom ULW barrel. Anybody got any experience with that one?

    600y 223 Wylde *First load test pictures*

    Only problem is that according to the linked drawing, the overall inside height is 1.622" and not 1.75". However as I said, it looks to me like the closest measurement will be about .079" on the bottom. Interested to see how it comes out. Please let us know. I hope it works for you. I have...

    600y 223 Wylde *First load test pictures*

    According to the diagram in the link provided the SP3R is only 1.8" wide instead of 2". If I use the measurements in the diagram and adjust the clearances for a .936 barrel and take measurements from the JP gas block I have here, then it is very tight. You would have .1" clearance on top, .23"...

    600y 223 Wylde *First load test pictures*

    JP says minimum recommended tube ID 1.75" to allow .05" clearance all around. Seekins says the rail is 2" diameter but doesn't specify ID or OD. I am thinking that is OD. I have that gas block on a build with a JP Vtach hand guard. I just measured the gas block at 1.375" and the OD of the...

    ORD, will this JP possibly work with that barrel/rail configuration? JP Rifles

    Short action magnums in big frame ARs

    Interesting idea. A lot of the WSSM's have been done in the AR 15 platform. I have one in 25WSSM. I wonder how the WSM's/RSAUM's would run in AR10? Could modify some pmag followers like was done with the AR15's. Bolts would be easier to work with than they were in the AR15. I wouldn't mind...

    Ar-15 build options

    Timney run low $200's. I got one a few months ago on a group buy on PM for $172. You can make it fine with a Burris PEPR mount also. I have several with no problems at about $79. I prefer the non QD in that though. If QD the ADM is better and cheaper than Larue (Larue is good stuff though)...

    Help decide on caliber for GAP-10

    As others have said the 260 has more brass options than the 6.5 CM but due to mag length limitations the 6.5 is the best choice for an auto between those 2. A little more room with the 6 CM but it's tough to beat BC's of a 6.5 bullet. I would think longer barrel life with the 6.5. I also...

    Rifle Scopes Larue qd mounts any good?

    The Larues are great but so are the AD's and they are cheaper. Bobro looks good but haven't tried one. I also got an armadillo bottle opener with my mount and my seasoning :)

    Ar-15 build options

    I think ORD is dead on. No matter what you do about your barrel you are going to need a better trigger, optic, and ammo. But after that, I think you probably still need a barrel to get to where you want to be.
