    My Google-fu has let me down. Does anyone have the specs for Armalite's AR10 SASS barrel? I am looking for length, twist rate and profile specs? I plan on ordering a Bartlien AR10 blank and want to have it profile correctly.

    243 AI vs 260 AI vs AR10 mag length

    I'm getting ready to build an AR10, either in .243 AI or .260 AI With magazine constraints realized, which cartridge can I use the highest BC bullet vs velocity without using up all my powder space? Will the 243 107-115's work at mag length with good velocity? Or will a 139-142 gr. 260 be...

    Armalite AR-10 or DPMS LR-308?

    I am looking to build an accurized AR-10 type rifle in .260 Remington. Should I build it on the Armalite AR-10 platform or the DPMS platform. I know that the two will not interchange mags but is one really better than the other? I noticed that GAP builds their precision AR-10 on both platforms...

    This is my first attempt at loading to a semi auto. I have a lee factory crimp die. How do I know if I am crimping the correct amount? How much does the crimp effect accuracy?

    Gunsmithing AR-10 Issue

    I have an issue with my AR-10. It fires about 6 or 7 rounds but then just dents the primer. After that the trigger is locked as if the weapon is on safe, I charge the weapon ejecting the round and putting a new one in to reset the trigger mechanism, but it remains locked. I have to physically...

    Gunsmithing ar-10 308 to .260 conversion?

    someone told me that a .260 round is just a necked down .308, so my question is: if that is a fact, to convert a regular ar-10 into a .260 would it only be necessary to change barrels? will the clips, bolt, buffer etc. stay the same?

    AR10 reloading

    I've searched with little luck, so..... I am getting my first AR10. I reload for multiple bolt actions, but my questions are... 1: I assume I need to crimp for the AR10? 2: Can you neck size after fire forming, or perhaps a light shoulder bump? Or do gas guns require FL sizing everytime? Any...

    Gunsmithing AR-10 Krieger Problem

    I had an upper built for my AR-10 awhile ago with a SS Krieger barrel. Just got it to the range and have some issues. The bolt does not go to battery on some ammo. It seems to like Federal Match and M118 LR more than most. The others get stuck in the chamber. Occasionally the Fed and M118 stick...
