But man do they work. 308 win and 178 amax/eldm were made for one another. Probably my all time favorite combo from one of my bolt rifles.

I’ll have to report back next season 😁. Just finished building one and that’s what I plan to run. I would expect it to act like any other Amax or EldM in that 2600 fps range and work extremely well if kept off the shoulder under 200 yards.

Honestly I like to shoot solid copper bullets on the light for caliber weight in high velocity rifles. Ex 257 wby and 264 wm I shoot 100gr ttsx around 3500-3600. The 70’s in 223 work great as some above have shown but slower heavy for caliber solids always seem to have longer blood trails and...

I would say it’s very subjective to bullet and barrel length. Keep in mind all my shots are broadside crease of the shoulder, no frontal or high shoulder shots. Overall in 5.56 65gr GK’s have been phenomenal but I’ll say I’ve had some of my shortest blood tracks with 77smk’s. I do clean the...

I started a few years ago using mine in the woods. I use them just because I’ve started to really enjoy tinkering with precision type AR’s.

Looks like a good shooter

Sounds like a grocery store my wife wouldn’t allow me to shop in.

What about Mark Chanlynn? Rarely see him mentioned but it seems to be good when he his.

77 smk TAC powder LC brass 24.4 gr CCI #41 Win Brass 24.2 gr Cci 400’s Both recipes shoot tiny knot holes in all my AR 223’s. I plan to try 77 TMK’s again shortly but I haven’t been as happy with them. Same accuracy as 73 eldm’s (1-1.5 moa) but twice as expensive. Xbr 8208 gets the same...

I don’t simp for proof but I call BS. I had a bad proof, 16” CF 308 for an AR. They replaced it immediately. Second barrel wasn’t up to par, called, they apologized and took my entire rifle in on their dime, replaced barrel, sent targets with test groups and asked if I was satisfied. First...

I’ll take it. Shooting nickel and dime groups after first 15 rounds breaking it in. Looks promising with factory ammo

Next week will be 11 months waiting…… trying

Bought it. Wise men company makes it, hot pocket rail wrap. They have a website. It’s made to shield your hand from heat on high rate fire guns, but in this case for a hunting rifle it also makes it nice to hold/grab when that aluminum is very cold.

Threehome brew large frame AR’s not a problem yet. Guess lucky or I listened to some knowledgeable folks.

You build some fine setups. Always nice to see them shared

I did have some time to group test the Hornady black 105 bthp and Match 108 eldm’s today. It favored the 108 eldm’s most. I was going to shoot factory to build up some brass and then reload for it but I think for the time I’m going to just shoot the 108 matches in mine. I’m happy with what’s...

Ran mine a few rounds to zero it’s a 3-18x44 model. Mounted on a 20 moa base I have 59 moa after zero more than enough for this rifle as it goes subsonic around 1350 yards with this load with another 15 moa left. Scope has 72 moa total travel, I think they advertise 60.? Glass is great, eye...

Just built this one. Lantac Onyx matched receivers & E-bcg, 20” Proof CF, A5 buffer system. Hoping to test it out more this weekend, but breaking it in last week it never shot anything over moa to 400 yds. with factory 108 gr match or 105gr bthp with the edge to the 105 bthp black. First...

I’ll be trying mine soon. Saturday hopefully. It’s a combo build from Kevin Rayhill then had to have John Whidden correct. Shoots good now though.
