    PWS MK214 and some blown primers

    Re: PWS MK214 and some blown primers I think whats going on is that the really light hammers on the after market triggers are good to reduce lock time but the lack of inertia and mass to "hold" down the primer during ignition is whats causing the problem. Looks like I'll just save myself 200...

    PWS MK214

    Re: PWS MK214 ----- NATO or Winchester? DMACK I've got a couple of boxes of 308 federal gold match. Can these be fired in my mk214? Can the brass be reloaded? Is there a NATO sizing die that anyone here recommends? What is the best 7.62x51 brass out there? John

    PWS MK214 and some blown primers

    Re: PWS MK214 and some blown primers I have about 100 rounds through it, Accuracy is not great but I suspect the PEPR mount was not installed tight enough. I will run some Federal Premium Gold Medal Ammunition 308 and adjust the mount. I ought to run a patch with some sweets just to see if...

    I went to the range yesterday and took along some 168 gr match partizan ammo and guess what happened.. . I had previously tried two other types of ammo before this and had no problems. I got home and cleaned the rifle out and everything looks ok. There appears to be some signs of over...

    PWS MK214

    Re: PWS MK214 Got my PWS MK214 last week. I was originally looking at an SASS or maybe an SA M1A. I handled a REPER and other AR-10 variants and have never heard of PWS until I saw it at RDS in McAllen, Texas. When I picked it up and saw how light it was, and how it easily came to the...
