    Does the AR upper receiver matter?

    I’m looking to do a few upper builds, with top tier handguards, and Krieger barrels. Assuming the upper receiver is mil spec, from Anderson to Noveske/BCM - will the upper receiver matter for group size or anything else?

    Gunsmithing Ruger Precision Barrel Install - Go Gauge

    Nice. I couldn’t find a video on how to get the ejector out, just the firing pin mechanism. Cool, good to know. From what I’ve read and read here it seems like I’m pretty safe

    Gunsmithing Ruger Precision Barrel Install - Go Gauge

    The gauge did end up catching and it was pretty easy to move once caught (I slid the bolt back and forth after catching). The closing of the bolt was incredibly easy too. Thanks for your advice. The thing that got me was the brownells info.

    Gunsmithing Ruger Precision Barrel Install - Go Gauge

    I didn’t remove the ejector and did not initially hook gauge under the extractor. Although once hooked it was still very easy to move the handle up and down. I also tested a dummy round that is longer than a stock round, that was built for my previous barrel. It’s so long it doesn’t fit in...

    Practicing with AR-15 - bad group sizes

    I don’t have the time to reload enough for my Precision rig, as I’m a bit particular with my loads. So in between, I want to shoot my semi-auto AR-15 I bought a good scope and rings for the AR, but am getting at best 1.5 MOA at 100 yards using Wolf Gold. Sometimes I even go to 3 MOA on my 10...
