    Common factory action problems?

    Search bar isn't giving me quite what I'm looking for so I'll take any links or answers anyone cares to offer. Questions: What are the most common problems with running a factory 700 rifle in competitions? When do you think it is time to just build a custom rifle vs. having...

    FINALLY got my tAR 5.56

    It's a very nice rifle and lighter than my LWRC, it surely is a nice piece. I tried a few different loads through it with the best results from the 62 grain match ammo I had. With the mid length gas and the surefire brake it shoots really flat and soft. It's extremely easy to keep center target...

    FINALLY got my tAR 5.56

    Not really a precision rifle but I thought I'd throw this up. Just got this thing after a 1.5 year wait. I'm not sure any gun is worth a 1.5 year wait but I was too curious to pass it up when I got the email that they were ready to build it. This is my first LaRue product and so far it seems...

    My 5r customized by S.A.C.

    Good shooting! I started the weekend with a CCB shot that was loose from the group like that. I had thoroughly cleaned the barrel after the last time I had it out some months ago. The CCB definitely affected it. The next couple 5 shot groups from the gun were progressively smaller, I guess as...

    My 5r customized by S.A.C.

    Thanks! Mark was great to deal with. They did just what I wanted and the craftsmanship and turn around time was excellent. I wouldn't hesitate to send anybody to him for custom work. When I get to the point that I think I need more accuracy from this rifle I'll be sending it back to him for a...

    Nice rig. I like the camo and wish if have gotten the adjustable stock.

    My 5r customized by S.A.C.

    Unfortunately no, I did not end up getting the suppressor. I should have stuck with it but unfortunately I needed the money for other things when it came down to it and chose not to have it tied up in limbo for a year. Maybe eventually I'll get one.

    Best base rifle

    I don't know how consistent they are but I got a 700 5r SS .308 a couple years ago and had a few custom touches done and I love it. Out of the box it had no problem with .5" groups or better. I did spend some money on it with a new manners stock so I'd have detachable magazines and I had the...

    My 5r customized by S.A.C.

    I hate to resurrect an old thread but I thought it was worth posting and updating. I'm still shooting my 5r in the configuration I got last year from S.A.C. and I continue to really love this rifle. Unfortunately I really don't get to shoot it much beyond 100 yards where I live and only get to...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Picked up a new M&P C.O.R.E.

    savage, I had read that these got the Pro Series trigger job which was supposed to be better than the standard M&P and supposedly the newest generation of M&P's have better triggers than the old ones, more like the shield. This one has neither. The trigger on my 4 year old M&P 9 was smoother and...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Picked up a new M&P C.O.R.E.

    bzo, the gun is milled for a recessed mount from the factory. It comes with a cover plate for when you have no optic mounted so it looks normal, and 5 different mounting shim plates to allow you to mount 5 different types of optics on it. As I understand it you can mount Trijicon RMR, C-more...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Picked up a new M&P C.O.R.E.

    Didn't come with it. The gun came with coupons for the EoTech, C-More, and Jpoint but I opted for the Trijicon since it was in stock at my LGS for a pretty good deal and I've had good luck with Trijicon products before. I'd prefer a smaller dot but I didn't want to pay the extra cost to get the...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Picked up a new M&P C.O.R.E.

    Won this at a shooting competition a couple weeks ago. Seems like a pretty good gun so far. Shoots a bit high for my taste with the irons but put the RMR on it and sighted it for POA/POI at 25 yards. I wasn't sure what to think of the accuracy at first because I couldn't get it to group from a...

    5R in .308 which stock

    I'll have to check on that. I thought I read somewhere that they wouldn't retrofit it. Thanks

    wanting to build most light compact .308 i can

    Put the money down and wait on the Gladius. The time will go by before you know it and you won't be sorry you did. Get the gun you want.

    5R in .308 which stock

    Just put mine in a Manners T2 mini chassis. It's pretty expensive but made it so much better than the HS precision. Kind of wish I would have just gone all the way and ordered the T2A though.

    My 5r customized by S.A.C.

    Quick trip to the range So I was able to slip out of the house for a little while today and get to the range to zero my rifle. I haven't actually been behind a bolt gun since last May so I definitely had some cobwebs to knock off but I now have regular access to a range. It's only a 100 yard...
