    Gunsmithing Lengthening the throat

    Re: Lengthening the throat Yeah, I think I will forget this theory. Hate to mess with this rifle as well as it shoots. As far as which chamber I am not sure, but it was build by Karl Feldkamp in Michigan. I couldn't be happier with his work.

    Gunsmithing Lengthening the throat

    Re: Lengthening the throat I would never try it myself. I was very surprised at the pressure signs as well. This gun does have a pretty tight chamber There was a pretty significant ejector mark, hard opening bolt, and the ejector actually sheared a bit of brass from the case head causing...

    Gunsmithing Lengthening the throat

    Re: Lengthening the throat I would like to make use of heavier bullets to reach out to 1k. The 168's go subsonic just past 900 yds for me. Wind is a bitch here in SD as well. I most likely won't mess with it, but was curious. I use this to measure my chamber and loaded ammo...

    Gunsmithing Lengthening the throat

    I have a custom .308 that shoots lights out with FGMM 168 ammunition. According to my RCBS precision mic, it has a throat length of .010. I actually get pressure signs with FGMM 175 grain ammo marked 7.62 x 51. Is it possible to lengthen the throat on a chambered barrel to allow me to seat...

    Load suggestion needed .30cal AP projectiles .308

    Re: Load suggestion needed .30cal AP projectiles .308 You could probably sell them for nearly $1 apiece. I seen some on AR15.com go for that. If you decide to load them, keep in mind they have a longer bearing surface than most other 165 grain bullets due to the steel core, and will produce...

    Load suggestion needed .30cal AP projectiles .308

    Re: Load suggestion needed .30cal AP projectiles .308 I have never loaded those in 308. I have loaded the FN 152 grain AP bullets pulled from izzy ammo though. I used 46 grains WW748 with a mag primer and it was hot. Accuracy was mediocre as well. I would start with 41-42 grains of varget...

    How are manufacturers loading to higher velocities

    Re: How are manufacturers loading to higher velocities I have a custom .308 running a 22 inch bartlein gain twist barrel. It spits FGMM 168's out at 2800fps, according to my 800 yard dope. Really suprised me.

    Barnes .308 200 gr LRX

    Re: Barnes .308 200 gr LRX I have a rather large stash of 165 MRX bullets with the tungsten core I load in my .308. Do you guys know the lower end of their expansion range? Are they good to go at 1800fps too? I can push them a bit over 2800 fps from my 22 inch bartlein barreled 700.
