    Magneto Speed Sporter

    Seems it would be easy to make an adapter to mount that to your stock pretty easily.

    Wanting to build a .5 Moa gas gun???

    That’s what I would do. I used Loctite 620 for bedding the barrel. Don’t use the wheeler tool for lapping the receiver. Buy the brownells tool. I wouldn’t worry about the play between the upper and lower unless it’s excessive. I’ve only built a couple ARs. If you’re anywhere near Dayton...

    Cleaning Rifle After Shooting?

    LMAO,,,,,,did you feel that? That was thousands of SGT. Majors rolling over in their graves after reading these post about not cleaning weapons. I clean mine to some extent after every range day. I guess it's just habit. It's the way my dad did it and it's the way we did it in the Army. I...

    Petersons Brass: Anyone using it in an AR?

    Yeah, I bought 100 pcs of Lapua, but refuse to load it after seeing what this gun does to brass. I did get a good deal on it but I'll be working up my first loads tonight using the once fired brass Hornady I've got on hand.

    Anybody using the JP supermatch barrels?

    Can't go wrong with a JP, Bartlein or proof. I went with a Draco's but I've only got 60 rounds down the pipe so I can't say it's a good barrel with great confidence. It's definitely capable of shooting some good groups. Others I've talked to say the same and they look wicked cool.

    Dracos gas expansion chamber?

    I installed an adjustable gas key yesterday and shot a couple boxes of ammo thru it today. I used the RCA key. Very easy installation. I have to say it works great. Very easy to set-up. I shot a box of 129 gr Hornady SuperPerpormance SST. Gun didn’t like it much. Still shot around 1MOA...

    Dracos gas expansion chamber?

    Here is what my brass looks like. Every one has these cuts / scratches. The edges on my extension are like razor blades as well. I did notice my JP Bolt has an Oring on the extractor spring. I’m going to remove the oring and adjust the gas key tomorrow with some factory ammo and see how it...

    How do you get the deal at GAP for the Bushnell?

    Dracos gas expansion chamber?

    I spoke with Draco's yesterday about adjusting the gas block. They said they are leaving the factory adjusted correctly for the corresponding cartridge. Mine is a 6.5 Creedmoor. I've only had it out and shot 1 box of ammo thru it to break in the barrel and check function. My brass looks like...

    Brownells Upper Lapping Tool?

    The Wheeler I bought was total crap. The run-out on it was worse than the receiver. I'd get a Brownells or G&G Rifle Works. They do work well. I lap and bed all my builds. I only bed if the fit of the barrel is loose in the receiver.

    Help dealing with manufacturer - out of spec

    How was the fit between the receiver and the barrel when you put the rifle together? I just finished a build where my barrel to receiver fit was very sloppy. I trued the receiver face by lapping it. I needed to do this for two reasons. One the receiver face was not square at all and it...

    Dracos gas expansion chamber?

    I just finished my Draco's 6.5 CM build. I'm running a JP Low Mass Carrier with their high pressure bolt. I have not tried to adjust that gas block yet. I'm shooting sub-moa with the cheapest ammo I could find. I'm definitely over gassed. Brass is ejecting at 1 o'clock. I have the JP...

    Help dealing with manufacturer - out of spec

    Seems to me they would really be opening themselves up to severe liabilities if that gun exploded for any reason. Unless they documented the barrel would not be saami specs I'd say they are in the wrong. I'd demand a refund and if they refuse, start with the better business bureau, then file...

    It's the new Leapers MLOK bipod. It locks directly into your rail on each side. Very well made for 47.00. All metal. No plastic.
