    JP Enterprises LRp-07 in 6.5 Creedmoor

    Hey guys, I have a JP CM as well and have loaded both virgin Hornady brass and made my own from LC 09 headstamp. The latter is quite a PITA, but I finally got that process down so that it is reliable and good cycling brass even with my suppressor (Surefire). Both would occasionally jam a feed...

    Best Lapua brass to turn into 6.5 Creedmoor?

    6.5 CM Neck-downs I have successfully necked down some Lake City .308 brass with headstamp LC 09 into reliable 6.5 CM brass. I ruined a lot of brass getting it right. Also the memory of the brass can fool you in that it will spring back after you run it through the die, so you have to...

    JP barrel vs. Ranier Ultra Match barrel

    I have 4 JP barrels in .223. They all shoot great. One is an 18" light contour and it is the best of the lot (others are 18" heavy and 20" which only comes in heavy). It is a pleasure to shoot because of the reduced weight. And its accuracy is phenomenal. It's been the secondary gun in two...

    Smith Enterprises, Inc. Suing over a forum post.

    That kind of behavior is not the way to sustain a business. My prediction: out of business in two years. No hard feelings, just my prediction.

    Verge of breakdown

    Ammo The LWRC is a good upper. But some of the chambers were cut a little out of line with the bore. It might not matter or be the case with your gun. Anyway, .308 gas guns are very ammo sensitive. I have an OBR with shoots 1 MOA groups with Federal GMM, Lapua, and Australian Defense...
