    “Precision” AR accuracy expectations?

    This is the best 20 shots I've seen with an AR10, 200-15 at 1000 yards. Just barely larger than 1 MOA. This shooter and the one I showed with the 200-18 at 600 both shot for the state. I did shoot with them after my stint with the state team cut short by my 4 year expat to China. Keith won the...

    “Precision” AR accuracy expectations?

    Ledzep, Now, here is your 40 shot group. I cranked out a 14 barrel from a blank for a Polytech M14 type receiver topped off with Navy SSR scope mount. I wanted to see whether I needed M118 LRs or the plain old M80s are good enough to guarantee a hit in the boiler room (forget about head shots...

    “Precision” AR accuracy expectations?

    I am not a statistician, but took a couple of classes on the subject. When I was shooting 10K rounds a year in training and in competition I hardly took 20-40 shots minimum to tell me whether I can take the load to the prone matches where we shoot at 1 minute X ring and 2 minute 10 ring at 6 and...

    “Precision” AR accuracy expectations?

    When I coach service rifle shooters I find a lot of them steering the rifle with their firing hand. A good check is to slowly release the grip as you watch your sight picture. It should not change. If the sight picture changes, adjust position, the forward elbow, NPA, buttstock placement...

    “Precision” AR accuracy expectations?

    The lowly 223 for killing TX size deer inside 200 is not too bad with 77 TMK. And quite effective with MK262s on 2 legged critters from what I hear. For punching paper at 1000 yards, prone and sling the 223 is a lot of fun on the NRA LR target. Won this wood with a 223 AR against Palma guns...

    “Precision” AR accuracy expectations?

    About a minute on target at 600 with a 223 7.5T 20 inch Shilen and March 4.5X scope. Prone with sling. Not mine, but by one of our state team shooters. Target has 1 MOA X ring.

    Gunsmithing AR 15 barrel set back??

    I have done a few, salvaged 18 inches or even 16 inches from service rifle 20 inch take off barrels. As far as the old gas ports, I just drill and tap them for 8-32 set screw. I do not drill all the way through, run a plug tap just enough to sink the set screw below the surface. Drill/ream the...

    Gunsmithing Lathe and mill suggestions

    I have this in a Precision Matthews badge. They are produced by Liang Dei. Spindle is kind of long, but not a deal breaker. I've had it since February, I must have chambered close to three dozen barrels through it. Mostly my barrel work is in support of the TX Jrs high power team. I am not in...

    Optics For Sale: USO MST100 From Eddie Ryan Rifle

    The scope came with the Eddie Ryan Tribute M40a1 auctioned here back in 2009. I bought the rifle from auction winner 2 months after he got it. I sold the rifle to an 84 yo former Marine. Somehow he sold the rifle minus the scope. I acquired the scope back. Whoever is interested can verify the...

    Why dose everybody hate me?

    My other double lug, built at the PWS RTE Quantico won the 2012 high power championship against all kinds of bolt guns in various hot rod cartridges. No hate here, just pure love for the old stick.

    Gunsmithing Shilen barrels

    Shilen supports our TX juniors and adult high power team with barrel donation and discount. They also support the Louisiana team. Can't say enough good things about their support for the kids - the future gun owners who will carry the torch when we are all long gone. Shilen barrels hold a...

    Gunsmithing I need a smith for a M1A

    Regardless who built the stick, getting the High Master card with the M1A is good shooting. What's your badge number? If you distinguished in the 90s our numbers must very close. Mine is 1234.
