    LMT worth the extra 1k?

    No problem ever with the LMT and ran Federal & Winchester white box, FGMM 175s (both 308 & 7.62), Wolf Gold 168s, etc. The short stroking issue I mentioned was with the S&W MP-10 and a review of many threads seem to indicate that they have an undersized gas port which sometimes works itself out...

    LMT worth the extra 1k?

    Had the LMT and loved the reliability and accuracy but for my use it was just too heavy and didn't balance right so I sold it. Didn't think I would find another 308 AR that would tempt me until I stumbled on the M&P-10. The weight is light for a 308 with good balance and feel. Accuracy has been...

    Suppressors SOCOM 7.62-Mini on Precision Rifle?

    I normally shoot a Tigershark on my precision rifles and recently purchased a SOCOM 7.62-Mini with the intent to use on various 223, 300BO and 308 ARs and maybe an AK. While I patiently wait for my paperwork to be processed I have been taking inventory and updating the brakes and flash hiders on...

    7.62 FGMM 175 & Magpul 10rd. mags.

    Thanks for the responses and decided not to resize the FGMM ammo and just use the 20rd. mags until I can find a solution to the 10rd. mags. I have an email into Magpul and they requested the OAL of the ammo so hopefully they are working on it. Also, for what it is worth, when squeezing the mags...

    7.62 FGMM 175 & Magpul 10rd. mags.

    I just picked up a couple of the new 10rd Magpul mags and was very disappointed on my first trip to the range with all kinds of feeding problems with 7.62 FGMM 175s. Upon examining the mags it seems as the rounds are placed in them, the mag bulges and bullet hangs up on the front of the mag. I...

    Some Advise Please, AR10/SR25 platform questions

    I'm personally a believer in buying factory then changing to meet your needs. This is normally the most time efficient way to do it and you have something to shoot while you decide what to change and save up the $$. Personally I started out with the LMT and loved everything about it except the...

    Colt CRP pro 18

    Just picked one up a month or so back and really like it. Been so damn cold here have only had a chance to sight it and adjust the gas system but it really does seem to cut the recoil. I was shooting it along with a 18" BCM and it was noticeably softer shooting. Seemed to be accurate and can't...

    What suppressor for a .22??

    Very pretty. Quick question, do you do the body and end cap also? Just did my Spectre baffles last weekend in the tumbler and was curious if I could do the rest of it without removing the finish.

    Rifle Scopes Quality one piece scope mount for the AR platform?

    Just put a JP on an AR and it is a great mount and I was very impressed with how solid it mounted up. I have on my list to pick up a couple of more.

    Suppressor increasing group size?

    Managed to get to the range this morning and tested the Tigershark now that it is cleaned up and put back together with no rattles. Didn't get all the testing that I wanted before my hands got numb and I was chilled (32 & freezing rain) but tested it with a new SAC DTA 7RM barrel and factory DTA...

    Suppressor increasing group size?

    Thanks for the responses and a special thanks to Mark at SAC. I was able to make it to the shop today and we ended up getting the suppressor apart and cleaned up. I did have a rattle in it before and re-assembled it with the instructions from mijp5 and now have no rattles. Can't wait to get it...

    Suppressor increasing group size?

    Thanks for the responses. Since getting the suppressor I hardly ever shoot unsuppressed and have noted accuracy issues with other rifles, just not to this extreme. In the past I thought that the issues were probably rifle or load related and never gave the threading a thought. The same gunsmith...

    Suppressor increasing group size?

    Same smith that build the rifle cut, crowned and threaded it for me. I guess it could be slight hits on the baffles but sure didn't see any sign of it and the bullets holes at 100, 200 and 300 do not show any signs of instability.

    Suppressor increasing group size?

    Not sure which thread is correct for this question, but just purchased a new to me 308 from a well known smith and had the barrel cut back to 18.5". I sighted it in at 100 yds. yesterday and was not happy with the groups with either FGMM308 and FGMM7.62 175s. Before drawing conclusions I decided...

    Rifle Scopes Best mil/mil low light scope

    Not an expert by any means but I just picked up a NF 2.5-10x42 and it is the best I have seen in low light and would be the perfect size for your rifle.

    APA Sako quad. Loose barrel!!

    Quad barrels are locked in place with a set screw that can be accessed from the bottom of the rifle. If you look from the bottom you should see a hole in front of the magazine and mine takes a Torx driver but not sure which size. You may want to try tightening this screw. Other than that, you...

    Sept Rayners LR steel plate match

    Little soggy is an understatement. More like drowned rat but figured the crowd would be less today and wind wasn't bad. Only problem was seeing the target through the rain and fog...

    Sako TRG

    Cut my 308 down to 21" and 300 to 24" and rethreaded in order to make consistent between my rifles. Find the shorter barrels much handier and still getting good velocity.
