Hi there! Looking to get the communities recommendations on optics for my new ruger American ranch right I just picked up in 300. I will mainly be using this rifle for hunting within 150 yards and will be shooting probably half super half subs. Have considered just sighting rifle in for...

no worries at all my friend! glad youfound her a home!

Hi there! I have recently been looking at grabbing a 16” Daniel Defense or Larue in .308. I have been running an 18” gas 308, but wanted to shave some pounds and a couple inches off the barrel for Stalk hunting. something I was curious about however was how much worse does the recoil get in...

Sorry for just getting back, it’s been a crazy couple weeks but just got out to farm to shoot today. I got her working fairly reliably after messing with the gas a lot. But I sharpied some bullets to see what was going on and here are the photos of before and have chambering the round. What...

How much does she weight?

I’ll get it cleaned and give it a try again this weekend and see how that does. problem is, it feels like it needs to be cleaned after every 10 shots suppressed 😂. I guess I’m just not used to how AR10’s like to operate, causeI have an old of the shelf bushmaster in 223 that I have shot...

okay that is great to know!! As I mentioned I ran it soaking wet with frog lube when I first got it, it ran really well, but when I was hunting it got cold and turned into just a thick gunk. Any lube you reccomend? do you think the bolt is messed up based on the images and the lugs being...

No stupid questions!! The secondary really is the cycling / consistency. Neither hand loads nor factory are cycling well in it. The primary issue is really why are the rounds tight / getting stuck in the chamber. And as for the hand loads. This isn’t very helpful. But my dad reloaded a bunch of...

Did notice that two of the bottom bolt lugs have some wear and missing metal. This could be from forcing bend bullets into the pipe unknowingly or all the times I had to mortar/ force a live round out ?

I will take it out this weekend and shoot it, I’ll take pics of the gun and brass and report back. Thanks all for the help!

I usually clean it after aweekend of use.However, I have been running it dry since I stopped using frog lube. Any lube reccomendations?

i usually keep her pretty clean! I’m gonna clean it up and give it another try this weekend. If same results gonna take to GS and have them look at throat! thanks for the help

thanks Greg! I’m going to try it again this weekend and if same thing happens I’m gonna send to get all the above checked! Thanks for the help!

Sorry for just getting back to you. The only thing that cycled well through it was bulk ammo. other than that, hand loads and factory match ammo, didn’t cycle reliable, as well as got stuck in the chamber

Sorry for just replying everyone!! so the thing that makes this more difficult to figure out is that, for the first 6 months of owning the gun, I shot nothing but bulk ammo through it (as I mentioned about 200-300 rounds) dripping wet in frog lube. Ran like a sewing machine. it wasn’t until I...

Thanks for all the suggestions everyone!! Really appreciate it. while I may have understated, I really do love the rifle I have, just getting pretty frustrated with having to leave it at home cause I can’t trust it. the cycling issue isn’t the biggest concern for me, I know that can be fixed...

Hi there!! About 2 years ago I dropped around 4K on a custom made 18” 308 AR-10. While the gun has an awesome barrel on it and is crazy accurate, I have had the worst time getting it function reliable. From failure to feeds to failure to ejects to bullets getting stuck in what seems to be a...

Any of you folks have experience with the Leupold Mark 5 / 6 or the VX6HD? Really like the size and weight of them, but I hear they have tracking issues? Leaning towards the ATACR, but don’t want to rule the leupolds out just yet! Thanks y’all!

Wow thank y’all so much for your help and thanks @Subwrx300 for posting those pics, this has been a lot of help!! Sounds like the ATACR is the majority favorite. Given that I have never held or seen one in person nor have any relative idea what a 30oz scope feels like. Is it something you could...

Hi there! Just got a new custom made 18” AR-10 in .308 about a month ago, and I am torn on what scope I want to throw on it! I live in Texas and This gun will primarily be used for hunting whitetail out to about 300 yards. Varmits / pigs out to 600 yards and steel out to about 900 / 1K (I...
