    CZ527 and AICS mags

    Ahhhh, modify receiver and modify magazine. I’ll probably just work on making better magazines for the Howa Mini, not willing to sacrifice AICS mags to feed Howa mini action rifle.

    CZ527 and AICS mags

    CZ 527, you’ll lose front action screw and/or screw that holds trigger in place to get AICS in receiver. Additionally, magazine is wider than receiver at mag cut out. Put AICS mag by Howa Mini and have similar but different issue. You’ll lose feed ramp on front. Move mag back, you’ll need to...

    224 Valkyrie Craddock precision

    Did a +2” on a 20”, 223 and it was really nice for running 77s. Definitely go +2” for 224 as you be running as much, or more, of same, or slower, burn rate powder if wanting to shoot the heavier / heaviest bullets.

    CZ527 and AICS mags

    I’ll say it, not gonna happen. AICS 223 magazine isn’t going to work for feeding a CZ527.

    Sierra Match King for hunting - did this someone?

    165 SGK will most likely shoot very similarly (accuracy wise, powder charge wise, BC, etc.) to the 168 SMK but you'll have a hunting bullet. SMK is going to be roll of dice on performance but for deer and hog, probably going to kill animal just fine provided you put bullet where it needs to go.

    Gunsmithing Help with LMT MWS 6.5CM

    Full mass carrier. Heavier buffer. Higher K buffer spring. Adjustable gas block or gas key. Yes, keeping locked up longer will resolve issues.

    Problems shipping a rifle

    Okay to get excited again, just keep in mind that it is going to be what the FFL is comfortable doing, that makes most sense to him. FFL has responsibility to make sure laws are being followed and there isn't any illegal actions. Like I said, little communication goes a LONG ways...

    Problems shipping a rifle

    Basically a non issue. FFL will log into his A&D the information from FFL / individual firearm came from. Whomever fills out the 4473 is what gets recorded in the A&D for permanent record. Info the sender put on the papers going to FFL were to aid in it making sense on whom to contact that...

    Need a buffer system for suppressed 11.5 SBR

    H3 or 9mm buffer with current spring is big improvement. H3 or 9mm buffer & change out your buffer spring to “Orange” Springco has 99+% chance of solving issue. H3 w/standard spring on 10.5 RRA w/SAS can and same buffer / spring with DD 10.3 w/TDS can keeps gas to a minimum. VLTOR is nice but...

    First build, magazine selection question.

    Might be worth measuring Mag well of MDT & MPA for comparison of width and length. Should be pretty similar dimension.

    First build, magazine selection question.

    I don't believe an AI, Accurate or MDT AICS type magazine is going to be appreciably wider than a MagPul AICS type magazine. Much more movement in that XRS chassis than I see with AI or Accurate magazine in my MDT LSS XL chassis, I do not have a MagPul AICS type magazine to compare against.

    First build, magazine selection question.

    Pictures, video even better, would be most helpful as the written description isn't conveying the needed information.

    Newbie AR15 suppressor question. How much back pressure can be eliminated?

    CAR H3 buffer would be helpful. Orange buffer spring from Springco wouldn’t hurt you any. What other powders are available?

    Newbie AR15 suppressor question. How much back pressure can be eliminated?

    Correctly size port. Correctly position port. Use low back pressure can. Buffer weight. Buffer spring K. 55 @ 2550 is less than I’m getting w/60 Vmax out of suppressed 10.5” SBR. Would be helpful to know: Barrel length Gas system length Port size Buffer weight Buffer spring Can used Powder...

    300 blackout throwing second shot

    Might be worth trying 5 rd group. 1st round chambers differently then subsequent rounds. Last round has no pressure on bottom of BCG. Both 1st and last round out of an AR have potential to be out of core group. Typically I've not seen the drastic difference you are seeing but I am curious to...
