    anyone have GOOD match grade AR varmint barrels in stock?

    Best barrel I have is a Krieger but I have also got many more bad ones than I have good ones. When they are good they are good. Perhaps my luck...I don't know but it is what it is. I had a WOA barrel and it was good. But my rainier UltraMatch was better. In fact I bought the rainier because I...

    anyone have GOOD match grade AR varmint barrels in stock?

    Wow! I would have flipped my shit alooooooong time ago. I've always found something good in the first 20 rounds. Your more of a trooper than I. Man I hope you find a good barrel.

    Finished my recce!

    Nice. Looks good! I once had a rem 700 5r .308 barrel that took right at 500 rounds before it stopped holding an ounce of copper. It was horrible. The. All of a sudden it stopped. Who knows.

    Low profile adjustable gas blocks

    SLR for the win. I have two. One on a 11.5 and the other on a 18". Both handle the issue just right.

    anyone have GOOD match grade AR varmint barrels in stock?

    Yep I agree. We got 4 bad CLE barrels and 2 more that they told us were bad so they never sent them to us. We borescope them and 2 had obvious reamer marks/issues in the throats. This led me to believe things were not concentric. I would definitely buy WOA over them. It's a shame because I'm...

    Help please. AR shooting different groups from each feed ramp

    I too have experienced this lately. I wonder if switching bolts to one with a tighter tolerance would help tame this?

    anyone have GOOD match grade AR varmint barrels in stock?

    Why is Rainier garbage? I read a lot of good about them. I bought an 18" SPR ultra match that's a solid .75" and sometimes better barrel. I've shot a few <.5" but still working on load development. So far so good with the one I have. I only bought this one after we got 6 bad Kriegers. I took...

    ultimate prairie dog ar-15. buy vs build.

    I'm not a model 1 fan. RRA in the least. I've had high dollar stuff that was easily outshot by RRA Wilson and WOA barrels. Sad but lately (last 3years) I'm not seeing "you get what you pay for" in barrels. Wherever you buy see if you can get a matched bolt. While it's not a deal breaker...

    Dd mk18 suppressed or sell it and get a piston setup?

    I also agree with Cobracutter that the Noveske stuff is a bit overpriced considering it's not doing anything more special than the next thing. I will say that I own quite a few items by Noveske however I will not be buying anymore. Not bashing them but I don't see the real need considering other...

    Dd mk18 suppressed or sell it and get a piston setup?

    I'm not one for piston guns or BLK craze (both shinnannigans IMO). I've had a lmt piston gun, and it was a hemroid and a way over gassed nightmare. Got rid of it. I definitely understand taming the gas and appreciate a well tuned yet reliable gun. OP: I would run what you have and possibly...

    Why doesn't military use heavier bullets in 5.56 AR style rifles ?

    Outside of stability being necessary for accuracy, how do you figure? OP. It's likely cause lighter is easier and cheaper. But the mil is using the heavies and has been doing so for years. Mk262 is just not standard issue for every Joe.

    Mk12 clone or other long range 5.56

    No sweat. I was also agreeing with you, and trying to prove a point about this holier than thou mk12. I'm a DD fan too because they make good stuff. No worries brother, I know where your coming from.
