    Lwrci Repr Mk2?

    Tracker33 Just for shits and giggles if you get a chance back out your gas block adjustment screw all the way and make sure that none of the rings gaps are aligned with one another. And try using an excessive amount of oil on the bolt carrier group (I wasn't kidding when I said that mine as to...

    Rock River NM trigger?

    Well if you got the money to burn threw 3-5k rounds then you can probably afford to buy a geissele up front and not worry about it. I own both and have several thousand rounds on both (rock river national match, geissele ssa) with no issues but I might just be lucky. If one of the nm breaks I...

    Rock River NM trigger?

    Just wait and see how you like it in the rifle. I have used these in a couple rifles. I have a geissele trigger in my ar-10 but I honestly can't tell that much between the two and for the price its hard to beat rr's nm triggers. it does take about 100 rounds or so before it is good (smooth) and...

    Lwrci Repr Mk2?

    Well I have taken the rifle out a couple more times and it seems that so long as the bcg is heavily oiled the rifle finally works properly. I have since put a few boxes of IMI match, Hornady Black, and Hornady Supermatch. All Hornady rounds have proven to shoot sub-moa . The IMI Match boxes of...

    Lwrci Repr Mk2?

    Not a fan of Barretts accuracy (it's good just not great) but we will see how they turn out. If I were worried about budget I'd go with Ruger's SR-762 before PWS, no offense. The SR-762 is a nice gun I have nearly bought a couple times just not quite there on accuracy although many folks have...

    Lwrci Repr Mk2?

    It depends on what your looking for in a rifle. If you want a piston rifle HK makes the MR762a1 (which I was originally going to buy, but I wanted a 20" barrel for longer range shooting) that is a great rifle, but only comes with a 16" barrel. There's also LaRue Obr's if you don't mind Di rifle...

    Lwrci Repr Mk2?

    Yeah that's the way I look at it as well. My priorities with firearms in order go - 1=Reliability 2=Accuracy 3= Ruggedness 4=Cost. I was hoping this would be as reliable and tough as my ak's but as accurate as a bolt gun... I shot a sr25 that was a 1/2MOA repeatedly with handloads and factory...

    Lwrci Repr Mk2?

    After my previous shooting session where I was checking out LWRC's repair shop work on my rifle (posted above), and spoke with Rodney (LWRC CS) about the issues the rifle was still having. He told me that they do/did all their testing using Federal Gold Medal Match 168gr BTHP and was surprised...

    Lwrci Repr Mk2?

    Do to the weather being so nice this weekend the range was a little to crowded for me to be able to retest the rifle, but they are calling for rain again next weekend so I should be able to get out there and do some more testing then. Sorry for the delay...

    Lwrci Repr Mk2?

    Well my rifle showed up yesterday and after inspection they had indeed replaced the barrel. So I took it out to the range with several boxes of ammo (1-Federal XM80 ball, 2-FGMM 168gr., 1-FGMM 175gr., 1-Hornady Match 168gr., and 2-Hornady Match 178gr.) to see how it would do. - I started with...

    Lwrci Repr Mk2?

    I just received the notification that my rifle is on it's way back. I talked to Rodney with cs at lwrc and he told me they rebarreled the rifle and it is good to go. So I will be taking it out this weekend and seeing how well they did fixing it

    Lwrci Repr Mk2?

    That is the exact same problem I was having, except when the rounds were halfway up the ramps where you couldn't drop the mag because the round was still half way up the ramps and you can't get the bolt to push the round into battery because its halfway jammed halfway in the mag with the rim...

    Lwrci Repr Mk2?

    My rifle has been at LWRC for all most two weeks for rework/ repair, so hopefully when I get it back it will be squared away. If you get a chance could you try a box of the 178's and let me know how it goes it would be greatly appreciated.

    Lwrci Repr Mk2?

    Were they the 168gr or 178gr / Match or supermatch Hornady. Just asking because mine had a few issues with the 168's and it wouldn't cycle 178's at all. it would just jam up or fail to go into battery. And neither would do better than 2.5MOA Also is yours a 16" or 20"

    Criterion accuracy?

    I have one of their chromed lined 20" Hbar contours on my beater RRA with the .223 Wylde chamber and it will consistantly shoot 3/4-1.25MOA with wolf steel cased ammo. With better ammo and optic I'm sure it would do better. I haven't tried any of their 30 cal. yet, but plan on trying one out in...

    Lwrci Repr Mk2?

    but with the proof research you loose the barrel life longevity ( current barrels are warrantied for 20,000 rounds), also there is no proof that the new barrel will make any improvement on accuracy since they have yet to prove the sub-MOA accuracy guarantee of their current barrels. The only...

    Lwrci Repr Mk2?

    Already have the REPR and neither are piston driven, but thanks any way. Obr's are nice but I wanted something that handles getting abused a little better.

    Lwrci Repr Mk2?

    Well I sent the rifle in last night so we will see how it goes. While I was getting my rifle ready to ship back in for rework, I gave the rifle one last thorough inspection. While examining the feed ramps and rear of the chamber I noticed that there was evidence that the right side feed ramp...

    Lwrci Repr Mk2?

    I just received my shipping label today and will take off my glass and send the rifle probably tomorrow or Thursday. I found another guy with almost identical problems and he sent it in and it returned with the same problems in which he sent it in to get fixed. And they just told him to keep...
