    AR 10 light primer strike

    I put a Aero upper and Ballistic advantage barrel together and am getting light primer strikes here and there. Put the heavy spring in the Larue 2 stage, still happens. Most rounds fire but every range trip out of 3 had a few light strikes. New CCI 200s with varget, no issues in other guns. I...

    308 Winchester AR Only

    I think IMR 4895 is going to do the trick for the 150 FMJs. Took it from 3 to 2 moa and gave a nice little bump in velocity. 2819 out of a 18". Hopefully I can tune it down a little more but for plinking at 21c per bullet this will work for me.

    308 Winchester AR Only

    Confirmed the Hornady 155s, shot better than the 155 SMKs which seems odd but I won't complain.

    308 Winchester AR Only

    Took two loads with Hornady 150 fmjs w/ cannelure (loaded long, case not touching cannelure) two charges of Varget. 46 and 46.2, shot just under 3 MOA tried a shorter seating depth as well, didn't make much difference. Got them to 2800 though with a 18" barrel, super sonic past 1k. Wouldn't go...

    White oak armament accuracy

    Mine hasn't been particularly impressive but recently has seemed to improve a little bit. 77s with 22.6gr AR comp. I would like to see a little better but have only tried a couple powder charges and not messed with seating depth.

    Movie Theater Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

    Anyone claiming any of these new movies are even in the same room as the originals is crazy.

    308 Winchester AR Only

    I bought some Hornady 150gr fmjs, gonna attempt to get something shooting with Varget. Just returned a Rainier match barrel that shot like shit, bought a BA on sale for 120$ on memorial day just to try before I buy something truly expensive. Shot 1.3-1.5 moa with Nosler 175s and Varget 42.5gr...

    Has anyone used Tac with 150-155 gr stuff? Looks like I might get more velocity with Varget but not sure.

    223 80g ELDM 28"

    I saw 3000 with 8208 xbr but be careful. Smoked some crappy winchester brass after a few firings. The F class guys shooting 223 like H4895 but good luck finding it. Maybe look at AR Comp or N135.

    .308 Winchester

    I think you could go higher with the varget. Obiviously work up carefully.

    308 AR10 Build Info/Picture Thread

    The Rainier went back, I am going to bite the bullet and go Krieger. Can anyone speak to the difference in the breech and neck length and diameter they offer? I assume shorter is more of a match chamber and longer leaves more room for functioning?

    Have any pics of groups? I have been looking at those barrels. Had a regular Rainier Match 308 barrel that did not shoot very well.
