    Need LR-260 loads

    Re: Need LR-260 loads I'm looking at changing my DPMS barrel from a 308 to a 260 Remington due to the better BC of the bullets. I am under the assumption that the slowest powders that can be run are in the Varget/RL15 range. This thread has a bunch of H4350 class powder loads. Has anybody had...

    New AR/Fighting with 77grn SMKs

    Re: New AR/Fighting with 77grn SMKs ShrockWorks, I'm trying to shoot at the bottom of the cycle. I don't usually have an issue with this. That being said, it doesn't rule my technique (or lack thereof)out. I was up yesterday and watched the sight picture as I felt the trigger break. I...

    New AR/Fighting with 77grn SMKs

    Re: New AR/Fighting with 77grn SMKs Well took the AR up yesterday and tried 10 different load with 2 different powders. I've settled on 77SMK w/24grains of CFE223. I shot 5 round groups vs the 3 I was shooting before. There was no correlation between flyers and magazine/load positio. One...

    New AR/Fighting with 77grn SMKs

    Re: New AR/Fighting with 77grn SMKs Joel, I have seen many cans shift the POI on very precision made rifles. If you're altering the "turbulance" caused by the gases after the bullet leaves the barrel it stands to reason that the POI could change. I guess the question is "After the POI shift...

    New AR/Fighting with 77grn SMKs

    Re: New AR/Fighting with 77grn SMKs Per the trigger, I definetly focus on a slow squeeze, pull straight back into the trigger and keep it held for quite some time after the shot. On my AR's of usually let it out when I reset to the target (3 to 4 seconds).

    Re: New AR/Fighting with 77grn SMKs Thanks everybody, all great advice. Bustin - I'll try RL-15 and see were it get's me. What primer are you using? I've been loading everything with CC1 BR-4's. Per the flyer - It's pretty random. I'll move to 5 and 10 shot groups next. I should also have...

    New AR/Fighting with 77grn SMKs

    All, I just had a new AR built. It will shoot one .250" group and the next will be 1" then back to .250. Most of the 1" groups are 2 good shots + one flyer. I thought is was me but I can shoot .25" groups all day with my varmiter and the AR's "inconsistancy" is too consistant... The rifle- 20"...

    Re: DPMS lr-308L Optics under $850 I put a Bushnell 3200 3-9 x 40 on my LR-308. It has the Firefly reticle which has to be charged but is pretty cool at both dusk and dawn. I shoot Hornady 150 BTSPs going about 2850 out of it with Varget and can hit a 6" plate out to 400 yards no problem...
