    6.5cm AR10 ammo recommendation for lighter loads. NOT a cycling problem

    i stopped reloading a few years ago,, huge time suck. the blown primer and pressure was with factory ammo,, federal gold medal match that came factory loaded with berger 130 gr hybrid OTM which is why this pressure was a surprise to me in the ar10 platform, i figured it would handle...

    best place to buy factory ammo these days? maybe family run?

    what's up with all the shippers wanting to add insurance for extra $. i was always under the impression, if i buy from a business, i expect them to make sure stuff arrives. weird. seems like a new trend.

    6.5cm AR10 ammo recommendation for lighter loads. NOT a cycling problem

    with the federal fgmm 130 gr berger, i have had only 1 blown primer but definite pressure signs on rest,, i did try a few shots with the suppressor off and the pressure signs still appeared on head. hard to tell if the pressure was reduced in any small amount or not by just looking at the...

    6.5cm AR10 ammo recommendation for lighter loads. NOT a cycling problem

    what would dropping down to a weaker spring do, if the goal is to keep bolt from moving back too soon? not arguing at all, just trying to understand the physics and diagnostic process for future

    best place to buy factory ammo these days? maybe family run?

    i've tried ammseek but the top three "affordable choices" seem to jack up the shipping, one place wanted 120$ vs 50 or 60$ at the others. plus i had never heard of any of them. 2 of them had the exact same website format which made my paranoia crank up. i was thinking of using a smaller...

    6.5cm AR10 ammo recommendation for lighter loads. NOT a cycling problem

    i checked my spring,, it is already the heaviest one they have. at this point i can add about .85 oz to my weights and see what happens. i may add a bigger suppressor as well, perhaps that will help. i have a couple 338 cans not doing anything. they weight twice as much as the ultra 7...

    6.5cm AR10 ammo recommendation for lighter loads. NOT a cycling problem

    i don't even see the H3 or H4 on their website? i believe i have the heavy scs, because it is the ar10 version and i have the 110 red/yellow painted spring. it is the heaviest spring. thanks for tip on that washer, didn't know that was what it was for. but i checked and the scs and...

    6.5cm AR10 ammo recommendation for lighter loads. NOT a cycling problem

    i know, i started one thread when the federal ammo had pressure, i started this one to see if anyone had found lighter load factory ammo and in the meantime, i fixed the problem with the hornady varmint express 95 gr amax. what is H3 or H4?

    so right now, my spring is the stiffest that jp makes. however i can increase the weight a little bit by adding another tungsten weight instead of steel.

    6.5cm AR10 ammo recommendation for lighter loads. NOT a cycling problem

    to set the gas block, i kept increased it 1 click at a time until it locked back on empty mag. to be fair, if i only put one clean round in the mag and shoot it, it is not as dirty as the ones down in the mag that get pummeled with gas.

    i already have an odenworks agb set just about right, basically it is just above bolt lockback. did you mean what top of texas said above? my bcg weights 17.75 oz's. i presume it is full mass. not sure how to tell

    6.5cm AR10 ammo recommendation for lighter loads. NOT a cycling problem

    oh no,, it is cycling fine, piece of cake. i was having overpressure problems until i switched to hornady 95 gr ammo. now i was just wondering why i had over pressure, and was looking into reducing blowback since it is a pretty short barrel, 16", suppressed
