    Inherent accuracy

    Guys I'm wondering which of these two platforms are inherently more accurate, the M1A or the AR10? Is one better then the other or is it a toss up. Merry Christmas vinny

    MK 12 sniper rifle

    Re: MK 12 sniper rifle This may be a stupid question but I tell my students no question is a stupid one. Instead of buiding one of my M1A's, a standard and a socom 16, can I purchase an accurised "Sniper rifle" all done. I also have a couple a AR15's, an AR10 and a mini 14.. I guess I'm...

    M1A

    I was wondering if anyone can give a recommendation on optics for the M1A standard and socom 16. I'm more interested in outfitting the standard with an optic then I am with the 16 but I would appreciate any and all suggestions/recommendations. vinny

    chronograph shopping

    Re: chronograph shopping I have had many, many chronographs ranging from $100-$800. I've accidentally shot them with arrows amd bullets. Once I got so pissed at one of the pieces of shit that I owned I put a 190smk through it. No other shooting accessory has given me more grief then the...

    Bullet weight & twist rate

    I hope this question doesn't sound too lazy a question but can someone tell me the relationship between bullet weight and twist rate. I'm curious about the general rule like for 6mm 1 in 8 twist barrel. Generally speaking for a given case a fast twist is for lighter bullets and a slower twist...

    6x47 and 115's

    Re: 6x47 and 115's I was under the impression that, relative to the case, heavy bullet-slow powder, lite bullet fast powder. I'm glad to hear you shot 6's at 1K with the 115's. If I could consistently shoot single digits with 115's in my LG I'd be happy, besides I have 13# of Varget so if I...

    6x47 and 115's

    Re: 6x47 and 115's It sounds like in order to shoot the 115's effectively, it takes a bullet specific reamer. Am I right in assuming that the chamber has to have a longer throat so a "standard" tight neck reamer is for bullets no longer then say 108's? vinny

    6x47 and 115's

    Re: 6x47 and 115's Thanks for the reply. I shot 105's at 3325fps with 42.5 G of R17 and 108's at 2950 fps with 36.8 G of R15. I re-barreled since then and would like to shoot 115DTACS because I have a 6BR-DX to shoot the 105, 7, 8's. I plan on ladder testing the slower powders like 560...

    6x47 and 115's

    Gentlemen I've been tooling around with 105's and 108 Bergers in an old 6x47 barrel and just had the rifle rebarrelled in same. I want to shoot 115's out of it but am hesitant to waist any barrel life because I'm under the impression that they don't perform to BR (1K) standards. I've shot the...
