I forgot to update that I called Valdada once more after posting originally and was able to get ahold of someone at customer service who acted while I was on the phone as opposed to postponing my request to a future "call me back in 4 days" date. A few days later I received a brand new scope...

This is a picture of where I had mounted a scope on both the receiver and the rail, yet only the receiver was marred, not the rail. This picture is of the brass deflector. I can see how you might think this is from letting it rub on something, but before I wiped off the brass residue...

I'll have it cerakoted when I have more money to put into it. As for it being over gassed, I just opened the gas the last time I took it out because it wasn't locking back on the mag ( pmag ) every time ( both 20 rd and 5 rd). It is also chipping where the lug for the upper is inserted into the...

My new build is a Mega Maten .308, and I just wanted to throw in some of mistakes that I made. -Mega Maten reciever set.- Something is odd about the reciever set,the finish chips very easily. I don't know why this is, but i have a generic cheap mil-spec ar-15 receiver set that is twice a...

Ok thank you, that helps out a lot. I was planning on using it to shoot steel and hunt pigs/ deer/elk. I'm new to long range so I figured I'd like the rifle to be able to reach out to what I will eventually learn to shoot w/ a semi .308.

Is a 2.5x10-42 to low of a magnification range for this rifle? It's a mega maten receiver set with a .308 20" rainier arms ultra-match barrel. My local terrain will allow me to shoot past 1000 yds. Am I going to not be able to use this rifle to its full potential with a 10x max scope...

For the most part you understood my question correctly. The only thing i did not describe correctly was the way the DI gas tube would be mounted to the barrel. As far as I can see, there would be no reason to mount it any differently than it is commonly done today with a standard gas block...

Definitely check out Zamberland before you make a decision. I got a pair for hiking in the Telluride (CO) mountains. I wore them in deep snow, half frozen rivers and then brought them back to Arizona just north of scottsdale. I have been using them to hike, hunt, and do shooting drills. It has...

I was curious as to why a company such as POF, LWRC ( REPR), ect.. wouldn't make a piston system that was mounted to the rail and attached to the barrel with only a DI style gas tube. Wouldn't this help achieve more predictability in mass production in terms of accuracy? What would be the...
