Hmmm I also have a A3/A5ish project going on as well. The above is all good advice, but…. I’m a DYI type guy and find doing it myself overly satisfying and stimulating. With that said I also have good support from my circle of fellow shooting junkies. If your in the same camp as I am I say go...
hmmm, I load for the Wife unit’s RR/NM AR/15 and I use 77SMK under 23.2 XBR in a LC 2017 case with a Fed primer. At the last ATC Match I discovered 5 cases missing there primers out of the 88rds fired. And no I didn’t scoop up someone else’s brass.
When I say missing I’m mean gone as there...
I’m glad this post came up in the timely manner that it did, I had a few questions but after reading the rules it looks like I’m going too get to play in the game.
Sept 3 is the date and it looks like I already have ammo loaded up. Wish me luck guys…..
Got my order in for a A5 this Thursday and I’m having second thoughts, now I’m thinking A3? It’s not too late too change my mind, haven’t got the confirmation e-mail yet.
Hmmmm, looks like they just pulled one round, and weighed the charge that is my impression.….. I would have done 10 samples and used the avg. if it came out the same weight as the first then I would have said ok that was a waist of my time.
Ordered my barrel on the 6/24 and it arrived today 7/1 thanks Frank and your crew. Its a .30 cal 5R #9 rot 1-11, looking forward too getting the rifle built.
Thanks, Phil.
All 03A3’s had this gas escape hole in the receiver now if it was a 03 or 03A1 with the addition of a gas escape hole then there is the possibility of a Marine connection.
Petersen case, Fed primer, 42.5 IMR-4064 dribbled up, 175SMK, 2.82 coal. Sorry no chrono data and for the poor/sloppy trigger control. I was getting baseline dope on the scope. These are the first 5rds, I think load development is done?
With a 1/9 tube it’s hit or miss with the 77’s. Those that I have seen that didn’t they did prefer the 75’s, so with that said your going to have too find out for yourself.
Just save the original parts, then it isn’t a party foul..
Camaro’s are like belly buttons everyone has one, it’s not like a rare HEMI 4spd car. I say go for it, I did.
