I have not had any brass longevity issues with my XTRAXN OBR. It does leave carbon marks on the brass that suggest light fluting, but the brass tumbles clean and there are no ridges or lines that can be felt on the cases. Here's a thread from a few years ago, there may be some useful info in...
Hey OP, couple questions from a practicality standpoint. First, how are the iron sights for any kind of use other than off the bench at the range? It seems like such a short sight radius so far forward away from your eye would be tough to utilize quickly or precisely. Is there any play in the...
Another aspect of the SD-E that I appreciate is that you can position your trigger finger out at the end of the trigger for precision shooting to get a somewhat lighter feel, or in closer to the receiver for other uses. I've never found that to work particularly well with a curved trigger -- you...
I recently finished building a rifle using a WOA 16" mid-length gas barrel, 1/7 twist, wylde chamber. Only had a chance to put about 70 rounds through it so far, but it shoots great so far. With 69gr SMK's and around 25gr Varget the best 5 shot group is just a hair under .6" center to center...
Mine has an 18" barrel, but I'd imagine that the 16" barrel will like similar loads. I've gotten best results with 168gr AMAX and 42.5gr Varget, or 168gr SMK and 41.5gr IMR4895. I take no responsibility for using these loads in anyone else's rifle, work up your own loads to know what is safe...
There's great info in the SH online training area, and it's not very expensive for what you get. Sign up for a few months of that a drink it in. Someone mentioned Appleseed class, that's a good option as well to get you goin. Work the fundamentals in every repetition and dry fire more than...
You can cut a few coils off of the spring that holds the selector detent in place. I did this on one of my LPKs where the safety was way too hard to flip between settings. Making it easier to move reduced the "click"of changing settings. Don't go overboard, just cut a few coils off and...
Mine quit working about 2 months ago. The motor was clearly running when the unit was trying to dispense powder, but the powder tube was not spinning so nothing was coming out. I called RCBS and was told to send them a check for $200 and they'd send me a new dispenser since mine was out of...
The groups look good, but I can see what you're getting at with the somewhat wandering POI. Overall it seems to be consistently high and a hair left. Your assessment of 4MOA taking all shots together looks to be right, but a 4MOA gun shouldn't shoot a bunch of 1" groups. Do you know if those...
The dillo dust is laced with heroin to keep folks rabid for their next bottle. Regarding their CS, it seems to have definitely gone downhill the past few years. When I ordered an OBR in 2011 I worked with a gentleman named Alfred through the buying process, and called back a few times...
Nice shooting, Elf, and good tip on the bag. I have a set of the really cheap Caldwell bags and have never gotten very good results shooting off of them, it's almost like they're too full, the rifle can't settle in properly. Did you find it locally or have to have it shipped?
I've got an 18" OBR 7.62 and wouldn't trade it. It's a little heavy but handles nicely for it's weight. Mine has a CTR stock with RISR and it balances well, doesn't feel either front or back heavy to me. If I was going to buy again, I might be inclined to get the LMT because I like the idea...
My biggest mistake was buying an OBR 7.62 and Nightforce for it, telling myself at the time that it'd be "my one nice rig"..........good luck with that. Before that I was completely satisfied with a Tasco 3-9x on the Remington Model 7 my dad got me as a kid. I can only begin to imagine how...
Thank you, this is great info! I had been toying with the idea of getting a MATEN upper for my Larue lower because I really want to build something in a different caliber, maybe 260 of 6.5CM, without needing to buy an entire rifle. Thanks for the pictures, that really helps clear it up for me...
Thank you, good to know. There was a thread on ARFcom a while back where at least one guy with both said that they were a good fit....and you can't put anything on the internet that isn't true, right?
