    .223 match factory ammo recommendation for a gas gun.

    i bought a bunch of different match ammo to try side by side in my "precision" ar (1:8 twist) and my tavors of all things. but the one that kept rising to the top was the Corbon precision match 77 gr smk fiochi 77 gr was fairly good, the old prime 77 gr match from ruag was darn good as...

    best video to assemble upgraded ar15

    i know, there are soooo many video's but like many things on the interweb, 90% of it are folks who only think they know what they are doing,,,, it's tough and time consuming to weed out the content and find the few who really do. i was hoping a few video's had circulated thru this forum and...

    first shot high, next shots in nice group 1 moa lower

    thanks, i liked your suggestion, i totally had not thought about that. i tried some stuff with the rear bag to remove that from the equation.

    first shot high, next shots in nice group 1 moa lower

    no, didn't change anything on the gun. was running a hypertap brake (which i give a thumbs up) but in the past, on other guns, when switching from suppressor to brake or even removing/adding brake, i have definetly seen a poi shift,,, very large on some guns. this one i had take off a...

    first shot high, next shots in nice group 1 moa lower

    it is a m4e1, ( i think) from aero with a jp match barrel, 16" it is the upper that has the special barrel nut, i think the threads are on the inside of the nut,,,and it needs a special handguard. i think its a rifle length tube and the handguard doesn't cover the gas block. it's the...

    first shot high, next shots in nice group 1 moa lower

    ironically, i had totally shut off the gas system and was manually running the bolt back with the charging handle after each shot. however, in the beginning i was hitting the bolt release for the first shot,,,,so this occured to me after a bit and i tried using the bolt to also load the...

    first shot high, next shots in nice group 1 moa lower

    i don't think it was a cold bore issue, cause i had been shooting it all day in intervals, shoot 4 shots about 30 sec - 1 min apart, then 5-10 mninute break, then do it again. i think it was something i was doing or something mechanical with the gun or my attachments.

    first shot high, next shots in nice group 1 moa lower

    this had been a recurring pattern while shooting my "precision" ar-15. been noticing it the last 2 days. the first shot will be all by itself high, then the next 2-4 shots will almost be in a single hole, like at a 100 yds. . it's got to be me somehow, but i can't figure it out...

    loading bipod, is it old school and obsolete?

    i believe he didn't put any load on the bipod at all, supposedly taking away the variable "loading" pressure which according to him, is impossible to make exactly the same every time. i mean, i load the bipod "a little bit" but i never thought i had to be within a certain parameter of force...

    loading bipod, is it old school and obsolete?

    had an instructor tell me today that loading the bipod while prone of course was old school thinking and that if I didn't load it with exactly the same force each time accuracy would suffer. i never really thought of it like that. said to just not load it. what do most top shooters on...

    Rifle Scopes steiner m5xi-25 question/problems can you move the zero stop?

    i've had this scope for a while, decided to put it on my "precision" AR, my 100 yd zero is hitting an inch or so high, so i was going to adjust the turret but was reading the instruction and it seems to be indicating that there is no way to adjust it downwards, like the zero stop is set at...
