    155 or 185 for 308 to 1k

    Thanks for all the tips, I dot have access to 2000Mr but can grab some cfe223 to test. I'll definitely be chronicling the load hopefully I can find a high node that groups well. Also didn't know that bc is MV dependant, I learn something new everyday here.

    155 or 185 for 308 to 1k

    i had it made with a 1:10 with the intent to shoot heavier pills. Someone else told me i should look into the 155s for LR over the 175/185 so i figure i would ask some people with experience.

    Gunsmithing Need a certified gunsmith

    i was always told call every smith in your area and see if any will take you as an apprentice. Other then that look into schools, there are a few out there who offer gunsmithing as a certification/degree.

    Gunsmithing how critical is trueing a ar15 upper receiver?

    i just ordered the PTH face tool and lapping compound. From the research i did, I came to the conclusion it doesnt do much for accuracy (confidence maybe) but it does help center the bore to the upper alowing the sights to be more central vs off too far to one side or the other.
