    Looking for a 6.5 or 308 patterned rifle NOT ar10

    I still have a virgin DSA FAL receiver lying around that one day I have plans on attempting to turn into a DMR rifle. Biggest problem with the FAL though is it has a reputation for vertical stringing in its shot groups. That and cheap surplus parts have dried up these days.

    Hunting with an AR?

    Well, the pistol is a PSA KS47 is 7.62X39 and the two Armalites are .308 chambers. The SASS is a beast to lug around but it’s just from the house to the cattle pasture and let the rifle do the rest. That buck was taken at 423 meters.

    Ruger American Ranch trigger upgrade?

    So I just got a Ruger American Ranch in 5.56mm as my new coyote gun. I want to upgrade the trigger and my choices were going with a Timney trigger or an Mcarbo spring kit. The Timney is in the ballpark of $150ish and the Mcarbo spring was like $20 shipped. Being a budget gun, I went with the...
