    First Time out with new DPMS LR308,

    Re: First Time out with new DPMS LR308, What kind of jams? Feed problems are due to the mags. Check your headspace for extraction failure. I'm shooting the same bullet, it works good.

    Bullet stuck in AR

    Re: Bullet stuck in AR The only case gauge that guarantees your reloads fit in your chamber is your chamber. Case gauge will check shoulder set-back (help you set your die properly) and tell you when to trim. It would work for chamber size IF made by the same reamer your gun is made by. Of...

    Anybody convert their standard gas block to an adjustable one? Looks like one would drill a hole and put a cap screw in it.

    Building a DPMS AR 10 LR 308 M2

    Re: Building a DPMS AR 10 LR 308 M2 Marlin_444 -- I'm new to it too. But I love my 336 30-30. So far I'm using wallyworld 150 corelock PSP. I'm thinking of re-loading for it (LR308)but need to find out what really works. I haven't found any Pmags available, they must really work good.

    RRA LAR-8, first time shoot!

    Re: RRA LAR-8, first time shoot! How difficult is re-loading for DPMS 308. I read a lot of scary stuff about it - gas guns that is. Small base die, primer pocket cutter, case gauges, etc. What works? I reload for lever-guns and pistol but this is something new.

    shooting with two eyes

    Re: shooting with two eyes I have to use my left eye only for pistol, LH or RH. I use a scope for rifle and haven't figured the best way for skeet. Left eye is far-sighted, right is near and fuzzy, plus a parallax problem. I don't wear glasses when shooting, couldn't find them in a hurry in...

    Re: Recent reliability info on DPMS 308Bs? clean and LUBE it to make sure the bolt moves freely by hand. Cleaned and smothered in mobile1 before firing, bolt still would barely turn by hand. Yes I understand all the manufacturing tolerance stuff, I don't expect six-sigma. If the bolt doesn't...

    Building a DPMS AR 10 LR 308 M2

    Re: Building a DPMS AR 10 LR 308 M2 Dissassemble BCG, clean and lube. Work the bolt by hand until it is kind of loose - get some PMAGs and send the DPMS ones back. As for the GB, should be able to replace it with a flat-top type and then you can put any type on it. I was told that you can...

    DPMS Panther REPR

    Re: DPMS Panther REPR Just got a DPMS LR-308, 24" fluted barrel. I cleaned and lubed before firing. Shoots good but fed terrible. Only put 17 rounds down-range, three others were dented by jams. Turn out the bolt is REALLY tight in the carrier, so it short strokes. Spent this morning...
