    22 Creedmoor twist rate

    I have built a few .22 Creeds on 8 twist 5R Bartlein barrels and they shot great. I am looking to build another one and can't find an 8 twist #13 anywhere in stock. I am looking to strictly shoot 75 elm's out of this and I know the 8 twist is the way to go. I can find 7.7 and 7.5 twist, which...

    Gunsmithing Beretta apx carry problems

    Playing with it a little more and looking into opening at the back it appears when I pull the trigger the striker isn't able to move freely like it should, it hangs up on the slide and that's what cocks the slide. It took the slide off and if I put some pressure to the right side, I can get the...

    Gunsmithing Beretta apx carry problems

    That makes a lot of sense. Thank you for the big write up. So what would be out of spec to cause this? Replace the striker block?

    Gunsmithing Beretta apx carry problems

    A buddy brought me his apx carry because it doesn’t even fire. He said there might have been some trigger parts swapped out on it but can’t get ahold of the guy who did it. What’s happening is if you lower the slide slowly it won’t go into battery. If you drop it, it will usually close all the...

    LMT .308 MWS

    Yes, in my experience the duel ejectors on the AR10 bolts throw a completely different (and more reliable) ejection pattern than single ejectors that are commonly seen on ar10's.

    LMT .308 MWS

    Ive had this before as well. Way over gassed and the rounds aren't being pushed up fast enough for the bolt moving forward and end up chewing up the front of the mag. Your not seeing it on the KAC mags because they are metal and possibly slightly lower cut so the nose can clear. Heavier...

    Replacement buttpad for Magpul PRS gen3?

    I would also like to know, the length of pull on those gen 3 prs’s is way too long on an ar10 for my short self.

    Gunsmithing Ar10 feed cone dimensions

    Just heard back from JP and they basically told me to pick a different bullet. I guess a better question would be has anyone been able to get the 6mm hybrids to feed? If so what does the feed cone look like? Also what barrel extension was used? Thanks

    Gunsmithing Ar10 feed cone dimensions

    I’ve been running a 30 degree feed cone going about .030” deep on ar10 chamber ends with JP extensions. If you go much deeper you’ll be loosing case support. The problem I’m having is getting 6 creedmoors to feed with berger hybrid bullets. The elds feed just fine but that long skinny nose of...

    AR10 barrel extension options

    The reason I ask is because I have a 30 degree (or 60) whatever you want to call it, feed cone cut about .035” deep. It’s a 6 creedmoor and feeds the vmax and Eldm no problem. But with the berger hybrid it slams into the back of the chamber. I’ve read of guys running the 105 hybrids in 6 creed...

    Bringing this thread back. Did you ever get this barrel feeding? What feed cone dimensions did you go with?

    Gunsmithing 300 PRC feeding issues, Remington 700

    Thanks for all the help. The customer brought in the rife and it wasn't even the feed ramp it was hanging up on. It was catching on a tab sticking into the magwell on the KRG chassis itself.

    Gunsmithing 300 PRC feeding issues, Remington 700

    It actually started with a .300 win mag magazine and that took a whole lot of opening up feed lips to cycle. I have heard the .338 lapua mags are the way to go on the PRC. I think you might be onto something with the should/rib location. What mags are guys running smoothly for .300 PRC's?

    Gunsmithing 300 PRC feeding issues, Remington 700

    700 Long action in a KRG stock using .338 lapua CIP length AICS mags. Already cut 1/4" notch on the feed ramp .125" deep. The tips of the rounds still occasionally find their way under the feed ramp. I don't want to cut any deeper into the ramp. Factory Hornady 225 ELDM ammo. Any ideas of...
