    Reloading Single Loaded 223 - Revisted

    After taking a year off (medical and work) back developing loads for the the Compass Lake Engineering upper with a Krieger Stainless barrel. So far 24.xgr of 4895 with SMK 69 seated too long for the mag, have worked the best. Initial testing shows promise for 24gr of 4064 with Hor 75gr, but...

    Good Field Trigger for FN TSR

    Looking for ideas and experience on an upgraded field trigger for the FN TSR in 308. Need to retain the safety and have a pull weight for reasonable usage in the field (have a Rem 700 PSS at 24 ounces and probably should not go this low or lower ;-). The initial starting point is need to...

    Rifle Scopes References on Gen Purpose Moderate Priced Optics

    Researching optics and not finding any general discussions of "moderate" priced optics, except for a case by case bases which tend to lead to more questions.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper PST 1 to 4 vs Burris MTAC 1x4 ctxt

    Looking for recommendations on the Vortex Viper PST 1 to 4 vs Burris MTAC 1x4, the catch being these are for use on full auto 223s. Have been having good luck with Aimpoint redots at shoots, however, could use a little more power at greater distance and as I get older. Would just ad the three...

    Rifle Scopes Recommendations on a "Moderate" Priced Set of Ring

    There has to be a thread someplace here on selecting rings, however, have not found it yet. Looking for ideas on a good but moderate set of 1" medium rings to use on a good bull barrel AR-15 upper from Compass Lake Engineering that has the extended rail already installed. The setup is...

    Good Field Trigger for AR15 - Both Reliabile and G

    Looking for ideas and experiences on options to consider for a very good field trigger that combines the pull of the Timney and the reliability of the stock Colt triggers, if such an thing even exists. Finding after using the Timney, what use to be an ok trigger, now just feels bad. The Timney...

    Gunsmithing Trouble Shooting Timney Trigger in AR15

    The Timney trigger in a recent AR15 project with a Compass Lake upper is having issues after a 100 to 200 rounds, with the trigger not always working. After cleaning and a light lube it appears that the hammer is "sticking" in a lower position part of the time and you have to "wiggle" something...

    Any down side to HS Precision PSV096 Stock - Rem

    I am looking at a HS Precision PSV096 (aluminum beading block) for a Remington Varmint 243 Win that needs a little TLC. Instead of trying to go pillar bedding on a wood stock that has already been opened up (maybe too well ;-), was looking around and the HS Precision PSV096 or PST012 looked...

    Questions on accurate bull barrel AR15 upper build

    Have a few questions on building a 223 bull barrel AR15 upper and while one would think there should be a few threads, have struck out at this point, thus this post. Background: This year's project is one (or maybe two) AR 223 match / varmint uppers. The first pass was looking at a dual purpose...
