Re: GA Precision GAP-10
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Lowlight</div><div class="ubbcode-body">During the "demo day" before the SHC George delivered my new GAP 10 rifle.
Spec's 18" 308, with Surefire brake for my 762SS and PRS stock, I immediately mounted my new NF F1 3-15X with Hi Speed Turrets and MLR2.
During the sight in, I was in the black on the second round, very little adjustment was necessary for the new optic, it was on paper out of the box. My first small group with M118LR was about 1/2" in size, I made the adjustment necessary using the Mils to center and just set out to reset my turrets. My first shot after setting the zero stop and zeroing the turrets was in the 1/4" orange dot in the center of Shoot N C. Scott from Vortex was on glass and witnessed my shot, along with several others. My next shot was on top of Tony Burkes' shot which was in the center of his target, yes I shot his shot with my shot and hit it on demand. Insert giggles...
Lastly, I went and shot a solid 1/4" MOA group, again with witness from the wooden deck at Rifles Only, add even more giggling and at that point I stopped because everyone was walking on the deck and shaking it so I didn't want to fuck it up. It was beyond expectations.
Fast forward to yesterday, I then shot the rifle to 1000 yards at RO, I needed 10.5 Mils to reach 1000 yards the wind, while not full value was still 24 MPH, and it hit with ease from 400 to 1000 yards while I got my dope. After I actually cleaned the rifle to the disbelief of those who remained at RO.
Ammo used both times, M118LR...
Muzzle Velocity was recorded on Demo Day as 2556fps, though Sunday's MV seemed a bit higher.
I have shot Jacob's OBR as well I have witnessed him shoot it, which I consider him a better shot than I am. He easily shoots 1/2MOA groups with the OBR, although I don't think he has shot a group since the first day. The OBR is reliable and accurate, but I think my GAP is more accurate, I cannot comment on the reliability beyond my past experience with my 2 other GAP Semi Auto rifles... because honestly I only have 75 rounds through the GAP 10.
I love my GAP 10, I guarantee I shoot it more than my bolt guns for some time to come... it's a winner for sure. Add more giggles. </div></div>
Have you shot anything else but 175gr ammo out of it yet?
Have you had a chance to shoot is suppressed yet? I just got out of the rain from shooing mine with an AAC 762SD and its got so much pressure that its making the can turn on the mount (loosening) and unscrewing the sunshade on the NF F1!
Just curious if you have had similar instances with yours. I have talked it over with George and until he can have adjustable gas switches made I am going to have to either switch my 51T can and mount over to this setup or not shoot suppressed which is a pain in my ass because of the location of our range.
Thanks
