Ruger SFAR accuracy; keep or move on?
- Semi-Automatic Rifles
- 19 Replies
Picked this up used for a good deal, hoping if I changed the gas block to a superlative and rid the factory one that’s touching the rail, maybe I’d get lucky.
I usually run FGMm 168/175 as a base line through any 308 I get.
Here’s 2 groups at 100 of the 175, then 168.
I’m not impressed, but I’m also used to .5 or better groups.
For what it is, worth hanging on to or move onto something else known for better accuracy?

Ex-Uvalde school police chief Arredondo didn't stop gunman 'hunting and shooting' students

Ex-Uvalde school police chief Arredondo didn't stop gunman 'hunting and shooting' students
An indictment accuses former Uvalde school police chief Pete Arredondo of missteps that led to the botched response to the 2022 mass shooting.
www.usatoday.com
UVALDE, Texas — A 10-count indictment made public Friday accuses former Uvalde school district police chief Pete Arredondo of 10 missteps that led to the botched law enforcement response to an active shooter who killed 19 children and two teachers in May 2022.
Authorities booked Arredondo on Thursday into the county jail, where he spent about 90 minutes before being released on bond.
A grand jury also indicted former school district police officer Adrian Gonzales, whose role has been less public in the two years and one month since the shooting. He had not been booked into jail as of Friday, and an indictment in his case remains under seal.
The indictments are the culmination of a six-month grand jury investigation that included months of in-person testimony, including from Texas Department of Public Safety director Col. Steve McCraw.
The officers face up to two years behind bars and a $10,000 fine if convicted of the state jail felony charges.
Barrel out of spec? Origin shouldered to savage style.

Well that didn't take very long since we were just talking about it roughly a week ago.
Kicked in the bottom line apparently.

Tractor Supply no longer going woke, eliminates DEI goals
Tractor Supply is backpedaling from a slew of initiatives that some social media users and customers had slammed as "woke" in recent weeks.

Almost new rifle - groups spread horizontal
- By Jayjay1

Hello guys,
got me a new Bergara B14 Wilderness Sierra for hunting in .270 Winchester.
I´ve tried some bullets but the groups weren´t good in the beginning.
I stuck with the Nosler 150gr. BT, which seemed to have the best precision potential.
Made a ladder test and found a plateau close to the maximum powder load (what Quickload said).
Primers and brass still looking good, I began to vary the OAL.
From 6 loads with different OALs (each 5 rounds), I had two loads spreading evenly horizontal and vertical at about 1.2"ish.
4 loads had only a vertical spread of around 0.4", but still a horizontal spread of round about 1.2".
I don´t now where, but in a book or in the internet I´ve read, that a horizontal spread can be caused by a too stout load.
Can somebody confirm this, or is this nonsense?

Night Vision SOLD 3500 FOM PVS30 (L3 Unfilmed) Price Drop

Looking to sell my PVS30 retubed by Jay at Sure Shot Nightvision with a 3504 FOM L3 unfilmed tube (91 LP / 38.5 SNR) and one-of-a-kind multicam paint job done by Jay himself. The image is absolutely stunning and handles magnification extremely well (I've run it to 25x without IR illumination on half moon night). Has one spot at the 3 o'clock that disappears at about 4x.
Last pic is a yote I shot at 300yds without any adjustment (Jay says collimation is perfect and I believe it)
Happy to send any other pics or answer questions if you have them
$14.5k cash but worst I can say to a trade is no
Willing to look at trades for a Can Am Defender or Commander 4 door. Possibly similar Polaris machine. Cash may go either way.
Located in NE IA if you want to see it yourself
