    What am I doing wrong?

    You didn't come across as snobbish. If anything I'm naive for expecting premium performance for bargain price. Trying some different ammo is definitely a good exercise. On another note, how big is the bull on the USMC rifle qual? America's finest are able to turn in some pretty...

    What am I doing wrong?

    Gents, Appreciate all the replies. Few points Concur that a single 3-round group is luck. Majority of three round groups being that small does indicate (not prove) that perhaps the set-up might be G2G and that I am the problem. That's the case. This combo is usually a sub moa performer...

    What am I doing wrong?

    It's an 8 twist and no clue on the velocity. Held 10 minutes up (good starting point for 500 yards and ended up needing another moa. I can do OK driving the rifle. I've got a LaRue 308 that holds half minute out to 850 with FGMM 168's (cheaper than the 175's). Stocks are similar. Same...

    What am I doing wrong?

    Gathering data on my 18" AR. 223 wylde, Leupold 3.5-10, Frontier 75gr. ammunition. Everything's great at 100, 200, 300, and 400. Even turned in a 2.5 inch 3 shot group at 400. However, at 500, the wheels fall off. The group opens up to 7 or 8 inches and is offset about 1.5moa to the...

    What mount / rings?

    What mounts are you all using on large frames? Is anyone using just rings? Seems like all the photos I see are using a mount and not rings. Specifically looking for options that are not cantilevered. God bless America

    155's in a 308 gas gun

    Do you prefer the 175's even over the 6.5CM? Or just over the 155's?

    155's in a 308 gas gun

    10-4. I'm stuck with about 5# of the IMR variant so I'm on the hunt for some of the sierra 2155's.

    155's in a 308 gas gun

    WRT the quality of steel in the barrel, mine's a LaRue, and I think he bought the patent from Hank Reardon for super steel that never wears out. and won't ever develop a carbon ring. It does shoot, though. Thank you.

    155's in a 308 gas gun

    I ran across some rounds I'd loaded with IMR 4895 and Lapua scenar 155's and they shot incredibly flat - like 8 mils to 900 yards flat out of an 18" bbl AR. Has anyone else done this? Did this wear your barrel out faster than the standard 168/175 loaded like factory? I did not see any...

    Sorry for the confusion. I should have said "rifle length gas." As opposed to mid or carbine length. Thanks

    anybody have an armalite AR 10 in 6.5 creedmoor ?

    Awesome. Thank you. I'm on the fence between this one, a LaRue 6.5CM upper, and a Smith and Wesson Performance Center model with a 20" barrel. I have never had anything from Smith that I didn't like, but they're not exactly the E.F. Hutton of the large frame world. LaRue is wildly...
