    I Ordered an LRP-07 Two Days Ago. It's My First AR.

    I own two JP's as well, an 18" JP-15 and an LRP-07 in .260. I might be one of the individuals you read who was whoring (read: "promoting") JP all over the Hide. I was turned onto JP by an individual who is employed as an engineering consultant in the firearms industry, very knowledgeable dude...

    Gen 2 PA10 6.5 ammo issues

    LOL...here, here. I just buy the cheap shit and know it's going to be loaded once. .260 SRP brass is not readily available right now, but maybe at some point. That would change this dynamic considerably.

    Recent Experience with LaRue Barrels

    I have seen it myself. @bigjake83 can drive a gas gun like a champion. As far as .25 MOA out of a LT barreled rifle with Hornady TAP, I just cannot believe it. Then again, you could be shooting handloads put together by the CEO of RUAG himself (I wonder if that fella can even load, prolly not...

    Better get that vaccine guys!

    I bet there's going to be some enterprising "vaccinated" folks who are going to offer services: grocery shopping, filling up your vehicle, buying beer, etc...for cash. This will be when the thing they say is not going to ever happen, actually happens - the vaccine passport bullshit comes into...

    Range Report Disappointing results from Hornady 6.5 CM 140 ELD Match factory ammo

    They're probably scrounging like the rest of us...may not be the same recipe they've been using (100% speculation on my behalf). However, if you go to Midway and look up their 147gr ELD-M, it says "discontinued." Wondering if that's due to the raw materials shortages, or they're looking at...

    Odin Works vs Proof Stainless 6mm Arc AR build?

    I gotta' go with Odin because they're local to me and damn near everything they make is pretty fucking good.

    AI AT308 bolt face pitting

    Define bore inspection. Looking down the bore with a flashlight does not count. I tested my smith (one of the best around, Norbert Costa at Sure Shot Precision Rifles) with my LRP-07. It had 860 rounds on it, he said "800 or so." Not fucking bad. Not fucking bad at all. Then again, the...

    Killed my harris bipod. Send it for repair or.......

    If it's got sentimental value, I'd just send it back. I think you're not going to have an easy time finding someone with a spare leg.

    @Birddog6424 - yo dude, wasn't this the same issue you were talking to Pat and I about at the .22 match?

    Thoughts on Cases Failing to Extract

    So you went back on your sacred oath to drop into my thread or did I just happen to catch you at your stopping point? LMAO!! I guess Redding manufacturing and selling shellholders that control for the amount of shoulder bump is just a moot point then right? Especially when you can just keep...

    Thoughts on Cases Failing to Extract

    Below is a case that was hit with the SBD, brought shoulder down to factory Lapua spec. Oddly enough, this one did not even chamber completely and needed assistance from my cleaning rod to be extracted. These cases are measuring, on an average, .005" wider at the junction just below the rim of...

    Thoughts on Cases Failing to Extract

    Thanks all for the ideas guys. In hindsight, my OP was missing some info. My apologies if I came across as being argumentative in the past posts. Check this out: 40.8 - 2630 stuck 41.0- 2644 41.2 - 2661 41.4 - 2664 stuck 41.6 - 2667 41.8 - 2697 stuck 42.0 - 2695 42.2 - 2716 42.4 - 2721 stuck...

    Thoughts on Cases Failing to Extract

    Actually that’s not true...the first that stuck was the most minimal charge at 40.8. Barrel is 22”, this is a gas piston system. Rifle length My gut is telling me it’s something with the sizing of these cases. Remember, they do not extract as easily as factory Lapua cases when I just...

    Thoughts on Cases Failing to Extract

    Because it's not important, and you should have extrapolated from the information provided that loads loaded with Hornady brass fired. The rifle is brand new outside of a barrel break in, where it fired and extracted a very weak load that consisted of 36.0gr of Accurate 4350, Hornady brass...

    Thoughts on Cases Failing to Extract

    Alright everyone, I've got an interesting issue here. Rifle is chambered in 6.5CM. I am able to fire Hornady brass without any issues. However, when it comes to Lapua brass, I am getting some failures to extract. Let me start from the beginning. I took Lapua brass fired out of my bolt gun...

    How accurate have SP10 been out of the box?

    I've commented on my brother's SP-10 a few times. He purchased it from another friend, had just shy of 300 rounds on it. My brother bought a few boxes of the Hornady American Gunner, and one box of the Hornady Match, both 140's, and we took it out on her maiden voyage. Admittedly, I was...

    SCAR 20 6.5CM Performance?

    Alright ladies and gents...I'm curious to know how your SCAR 20's in 6.5CM are performing? Details would be great, in terms of ammo and optics used, number of round fired, and anything else you believe may add to the discussion. I have one in .308. I haven't even fired the damn thing. The...

    NightForce or Vortex Razor or Primary Arms

    Berger Sales Suspended - at one retailer

    That would be great, but I just can't see it happening. The theft of the 2020 presidential "election" was the start of a significant era in "elections." I just can't believe the demonrats would come this far (stealing the presidency) to just let the republicrats win in the midterms. As far...
