    Accuracy International 223 conversion working

    @trophyhunter came out with the original 223 bolt head conversion, they offered it for some time. I bought the rights/technology from them and we are making some small revisions in geometry. We are mostly through the revision and should put the R2 into production very shortly. We are assuming...

    guys, thanks for you patience, ive got R2 on my rifle and working, trying to get the bolt close as smooth as a factory AI 308 bolt. Lots of stuff going on with the closing cams, etc and the different geometry in place with the 223 head. Its 95% right now, got mine shooting sub 1" @400Y

    Bartlein BB steel barrel, wearing one out...

    I started by cleaning the barrel very thoroughly when I got I think back, soaked to remove carbon, etc , then brushed it vigorously It does currently copper foul more than a newer barrel, so I patch, brush, then soak overnight with a copper solvent- I've been soaking with boretech eliminator

    The 110 sierra load will no longer meet the accuracy requirements, so I’m burning them for barricade practice. I’ve switched to the 105 Scenar load to monitor accuracy. Cleaned all my mufflers today and re-zeroed. 5 shots at 100y with the scenar is looking good. Shot (4) three shot groups at...

    First of all, let me say this: I don't compete at a high level. When I'm shooting at a match I'm on vacation- if its raining or otherwise shitty, Im going home. So if I don't come in the top 10 that's not a loss or disappointment for me. -I agree that watching velocity can be a good...
