    Range Report How jump tolerant are 6.5 140 hybrids?

    I just started shooting my 6.5 CM barrel for my DTA and started working up a load using both 139 scenars and the 140 Hybrids. I loaded up the Hybrids 10 thou off the lands and didn't realize until I got out to the range that they wouldn't feed into my DTA 308 mag. I was surprised since DTA mags...

    I just lightly dremeled the feed lips with a sanding wheel and followed up with some emery cloth to polish them. Much smoother feeding and loading....and the lips no longer gouge my brass. I've never had a failure to feed even after shooting enough ammo through my SRS to burn out two barrels...

    Hmmmmm......mine click when seated and drop free when the mag release is used. While I would love to have a quality 10 round mag as well and I have lamented over the same issues with the existing mag, a Dremel and some sandpaper have made them much easier to load and we all knew what the...

    Schneider is about 6 weeks from order to receiving. Gary has the DTA barrel blueprints on file and I think I paid $325 for my 6.5 barrel. I've never had a more accurate barrel. I didn't even work up a load. Just started with 42.6 grains of H4350 and 139 lapuas. Got 2850 fps and shot five...

    Robert Gradous and Bartlein barrels sure get the job done!!

    It gets old seeing you Gradous build guys posting pics of one shot on paper and calling it a group.

    Lilja barrel break-in?

    I break barrels in by shooting the piss out of them. I've got a factory 243 barrel for my DTA that is on 1000 rounds and still hammers with sub half moa authority. I clean it lightly every 300 or so rounds once I notice accuracy fading. Most of the time I just use a bore snake. I don't...

    WOA SPR barrel issues

    I don't have an SPR but I have a WOA DMR barrel with a rifle length gas system that I had cut down to 18 inches and recrowned. It shoots half MOA all day. Funny thing is, I had asked a question on arfcom about what buffer and spring to use on an 18 inch barrel with a rifle length gas...

    Aint that the truth. This thread has completely degraded to a bitch fest. I couldn't be a firearms manufacturer..... I don't have the patience for it. Since everyone is telling Nick how to run his company, I'll chime in with "forget the 10 round mags Nick, get that MDR into...

    Rifle Scopes Will switch barrel rifles begin to effect scope sales? Discuss.

    I know that people have been swapping barrels out....Ive done it. I had a .308 and .243 chambered for this rifle and swapped them out. Although I didnt feel comfortable doing it without at least running a go-no go gauge through it. It is still something that most people would not want to tackle...

    Rifle Scopes Will switch barrel rifles begin to effect scope sales? Discuss.

    Keep in mind, conversions include bolts as well. If youre sticking within the same case parent range, you dont need a new bolt. I get a barrel, extension, muzzle device and chambering work done for about $1100.00. The new AI At looks very nice as well and the price point is killer considering...

    Rifle Scopes Will switch barrel rifles begin to effect scope sales? Discuss.

    Again, sarcasm aside, if you need specialty tools like a barrel vice and an action wrench, head space gauges to do it, its not truly a switch barrel rifle. Most rifles allow you to swap barrels out and normally require a gunsmith to do it properly and safely if you dont have the requisite tools...

    Rifle Scopes Will switch barrel rifles begin to effect scope sales? Discuss.

    A true switch barrel rifle can be done easily at the range or in the field. Based on what you're saying, an Ar15 is a switch barrel rifle. Just because the barrel CAN be switched, that doesn't make it a switch barrel rifle.

    Rifle Scopes Will switch barrel rifles begin to effect scope sales? Discuss.

    It did with me. My DTA gives me every caliber I need with a simple barrel swap. One scope does it all.....that's why I got a Premier, zero change with no tools required. Because DTAs are so repeatable, I know what my zero shift is from barrel to barrel and it's within a 1/4 MOA every time. I...

    Or he could chose to simply say any future mags will fit existing skins and leave it at that.....being its his company and all......just saying.

    Valid points....I am sure it is going to be a fantastic scope, especially considering the price break.

    Yep.....it's what stopped me from choosing this scope. I wanted one......was almost set on one. 3.5 pounds is just too much though.

    Desert Tech... It's here!

    You aint lying....that is the most bummer of a release date ever....EVER!! Maybe testing will go very well and they end up bumping up the timeline.
