I have a 20" rile gas system ballistic advantage 1:10 twist barrel on an AR10.. I looked for some bullets and found the 178gr ELD-M bullets with a great BC and a decent price..
We tried Varget as the first powder and I am questioning if the gun just does not like it. We tried 41.7gr, 41.9gr, 42gr, 42.1gr, 42.2gr, and 42.3gr.. our best standard deviations were at 41.9gr followed by 42.1gr.. but we could not get a group better than about 2-3 inches at 100 yards.
The husband had this same issue with his AR15 a few years back and swapped powders and it took it from 2-3 inch groups to sub moa.. I am wondering if this is a similar case.. I am thinking it may be..
What are some loads people are getting sub moa groups with for an AR10? powder, grains, OAL?
