    You just don't see rifles like this too often...

    Thank you for sharing, that is a beautiful rifle. I hope it is rebarreled for generations as a family heirloom.

    LMT MWS 308 Muzzle Brake

    If they fit over your threaded barrel without excess play your fine.

    LMT MWS 308 Muzzle Brake

    The shims are often not the size that their color indicates. I screw on the break, subtract how many thousandths I need to get to just short of zero, measure the shims with a set of calipers, screw on, torque, and your done. If you have the right parts to start with it takes less than 5 minutes...

    LMT MWS 308 Muzzle Brake

    I had a Battle Comp on mine and switched it off for the SF break to use an SF can now and again. Honestly, I can't tell the difference in recoil reduction between the two but the BC is more comfortable for others to be around.

    LMT .308 Modular Weapon System 18" Match Grade Barrel with 1:11 Twist

    Pleases forgive my poor articulation. I did not mean to state that have shot the LMT out to 1K. I shoot out to 1K quite often in the course of fire of the monthly matches out here but I have always used either a 20" 308 bolt gun or my 24" 6.5 Creedmoor bolt gun. I've only shot the LMT out to...

    LMT .308 Modular Weapon System 18" Match Grade Barrel with 1:11 Twist

    A buddy of mine used his new mag-chronometer on some of my rifles/loads to confirm its accuracy to known speeds. We then used it on my LMT MWS 18" SS. 175SMK, 1x fired FGMM brass, 43.0 Varget, Fed 210M primers. This gave us an average MV of 2522. Using the Litz calculations on the Shooter...

    Talk to me about 6.5 Creedmoor in a GAP-10

    Where did you get the LMT 260 barrel? I love my 24" 6.5 CM bolt gun and would love to shoot 6.5 CM 140's out of my LMT MWS...

    LMT .308 MWS

    Borrowed a PRS from a buddy just to give it a try. I like it but I'm going to put the A2 and the 2.5-10x NXS back on her.

    LaRue OBR 7.62

    I ordered a .308 tOBR in 8/12 after spending some time behind some OBRs. I liked everything but the 20 MOA top rail and the original "Texas Ranger" rifle seemed like the best of both worlds. Now they've changed the rifle to this break down version, changed the trigger from the SSA, and lastly...

    Manners prototype M1A stock

    Yes. A Manners side-folder M1A stock with a top Troy rail and adjustable cheek would be outstanding!

    Let see those Spartan Rifles

    Two 6.5 Creedmoors.

    LaRue PredatOBR

    Larue has changed it from the Geissele SSA to the American Trigger Corp. AR-Gold Trigger.

    LMT .308 MWS

    Also, for those interested: The above load was 175SMK, 43.0 Varget, F210M in 1x Fired FGMM cases. This clocks at an average of 2522fps from the 18" SS barrel. (Max 2535, Min 2512, Ave 2522, ES 23, SD 9)

    LMT .308 MWS

    Compared to the nasty flyers I was getting before the groups have tightened up considerably. I'm hovering right around 1 MOA but I'm able to call my errors now that I'm using the A2. I fired the first three groups focusing on the points of the diamond. I then shot the 5 group target from left...

    LMT .308 MWS

    Last week I changed to an 18"SS barrel, A2 stock, and Slash's heavy buffer/spring combo. Now the rifle is very smooth and shooting sub MOA more consistently. The SOPMOD stock is challenging when trying to use the LMT in a precision role. Changing to the A2 allowed me to identify shooter...

    LaRue PredatOBR

    I've had a 7.62 18" on order since the beginning of 8/12. I didn't expect to see it for another year with the shipping/communication fiasco with LT over the tOBR's so I picked up an LMT MWS. Now that the tOBR's are finally shipping I can't wait to shoot the two side by side for a head-to-head...

    LMT .308 MWS

    Elfster/Roady, Thanks for the feedback. I hope to have the heavy buffer/spring in the A2 and out to the range by the middle of next week. Until then, lots of dry firing...

    LMT .308 MWS

    It is the 6-9". Any comments as to what shooting position/grip/technique worked well for you?

    LMT .308 MWS

    I put on an 18" SS barrel and switched out the glass temporarily from my bolt gun to try a bit more than 10x. After trying several shooting styles and holds I believe I have identified what this rifle likes and does not. Generally speaking, the rifle needs to be held very firmly into the...

    Very nice Jason. I think you are going to like that 20" stainless barrel :)
