    223 version of the RPR

    Have not seen much about the cratering issue as of late. I think that I have solved my concerns by going back to Sierra 69 HPBT from Hornady ELD 75. But I need some help on getting the trigger a bit lighter. I had read that some were removing the adj. spring on RPR. Has anyone did this on the...

    Gunsmithing Muzzle Brake

    Thanks GH41,That wed site show a much better picture of the brake than the manual. In the manual it looks like one part, was not sure. I do have wrench that will fit just not long enough. Guess I give it a try. Hope that the jam nut will back off a little.

    Gunsmithing Muzzle Brake

    K-tech, Yes I have the protector for the threads. I also have a set of fiber pads from Lowes for a 5" vice and a 12" adjustable wrench but I didn't know if that would fit the task. Has anyone had any luck with just these tools? Thanks

I don't feel that a Brake is need for the amount of recoil vs the sound. I thank you all in advance for your comments and...

    223 version of the RPR

    Yoteski, I am having this problem with my RPR 223 and was glad to find this post. I was very concerned thinking it was a pressure issue, knowing I was not near a max load.

    223 version of the RPR

    Well, I didn't get much help from all you guys. Took it on my own and got it anyways. Thought I had a set of high rings, but they were to low for a good site picture. Will pick up a set at Cabela's tomorrow. I feel that it will make a very good gun for out to 450 yds.
