    Sig 556 DMR Range Report/Barrel Twist Rate Issue

    Re: Sig 556 DMR Range Report/Barrel Twist Rate Iss I have a couple of thoughts on the vertical spread: 1. My P-poor eyesight and/or the reticle in the Wotac (kinda "busy"). My hold of the horizontal line may be fluctuating. Oh yeah, I'm shooting from a bipod / rear bag. 2. Variation in...

    Gunsmithing Removing factory muzzle brake

    Re: Removing factory muzzle brake Thanks Dave. I don't have the rifle with me, but I'll check this evening. I would like to replace the brake with a flash hider. I really just want to get rid of some of the BLAST! If I post a picture could someone discern how it's attached?

    A Silver Lining

    Re: A Silver Lining Glad to see you can find the bright side of things. There usually is one if you look hard enough. Before my grandfather passed, he gave his guns to some of my cousins and me. I got a plain old Glock 21, but it meant more to me than anything in my collection. A few...

    Gunsmithing Removing factory muzzle brake

    My search came up MT. I've got an Armalite marked M4c in 5.56 that I bought in 1994, I believe. I would like to remove the factory installed muzzle brake if possible--read: practical and legal. I'm not sure whether it is pre-ban or if that even matters with the expiration of the AWB. I'm in...

    Sig 556 DMR Range Report/Barrel Twist Rate Issue

    Re: Sig 556 DMR Range Report/Barrel Twist Rate Issue Inspired by your test, I did a "mini" version of it tonight with my 556 (same configuration as OP except mine has a Wotac 4-14x50). Before tonight I had fired maybe 200 rounds of various .223 and 5.56, but all were 55 fmj. XM193 groups...

    Sig 556 DMR Range Report/Barrel Twist Rate Issue

    Re: Sig 556 DMR Range Report/Barrel Twist Rate Issue OP, maybe you could edit "Sig 556" from the thread title. This thread deserves to be seen by more folks here, but most won't even look with that in the title. Did you do any kind of break-in with your rifle? Just curious because I...

    Minor gun nomenclature irritations

    Re: Minor gun nomenclature irritations I like "shot my gun". I have shot various and sundry things in my time, but never a gun.

    Sig 556 DMR Range Report/Barrel Twist Rate Issue

    Re: Sig 556 DMR Range Report/Barrel Twist Rate Issue That's quite a write-up--just what I was looking for a few months ago before I bought the same rifle. I was really torn over whether to buy it because of the twist rate, like you mention, and because it's not truly "free floating". But, I...

    Armalite Quandry...????? :(

    Re: Armalite Quandry...????? :( Ask yourself why you bought the rifle originally and if the reasoning / need is still there. Better yet, I could come over, we could put two of the rifles in my truck. I would drive back home. That should solve your "quandry", and I would sleep better at...

    Anyone wear FRCs?

    Re: Anyone wear FRCs? coal mine / or power house? It seems like that is all there was last time I was out there. Bulwark is not bad, should fit the same. Funny: Most of my employees who work in the powerhouses wear carhartt or wrangler (frc not mandatory for contractors) and are jealous...

    Hit and run

    Re: Hit and run Really the best thing to do depends on you and your wife. If you are intelligent, articulate, willing to research into how settlements are reached, and a good negotiator, you would be well-served to begin the negotiation without an attorney. I am 18 months into a personal...

    Bore Snake use with precision equipment / Rifles

    Re: Bore Snake use with precision equipment / Rifl I believe the manuf. suggests putting them in the washing machine. Never tried it though. I'm always very conscientious about keeping it off the ground. I like the idea of keeping it inside the bore for storage. On my rifles that have...
