LR 308 just finished /target added 4-2-10

[Kenco Arms]

I have not cut the barrel, but I got the rest of the goodies put on

Cut the barrel and threaded it today really love it at 21.5 inch

This is the target I shot during 24 round break in, for some reason the suppressor spread my group. The suppressor (same one) tightened up the group on my bolt gun. I will try another load.

Looks good man enjoy!
What length are you going to cut the barrel to?

Re: LR 308 just finished

eh, rock that long barrel.

It's not like that config will be good for CQB.

Re: LR 308 just finished

Looks good. What gas block did you use?

BTW - I love my Troy rail too. I thought it was funny that the installation instructions stated to grind the barrel nut to fit the gas tube.

Good job on the build.

Re: LR 308 just finished

to late cut it today to 21.5 threaded 5/8x24. 24inch is way too long with a can on it. I will post another pic with the can on it. QC phantom 7.62

Re: LR 308 just finished

about the barrel nut I did not read the destructions but I used a ball head mill to make the fit. the gas block is the low profile from DPMS i prayed it fit inside the handgaurd and it did. looks better then the real cut down one.

Re: LR 308 just finished

How about the details on your load?
Case
Primer
seat OAL
And I am assuming that you full length sized them.

Re: LR 308 just finished

case is FGMM, win. primers and because I shoot the same load in 4 rifle I cut and seat to the books OAL. I have stopped using the Molly's. I had these loaded shot them up. I do have 272 molly 168 left that I will sell if someone wants them.

Re: LR 308 just finished

Kenco,
44Mag.com has the 10 rd. ones right now. They usually have the 5 too but are out. Here's the link. I got the 5 rd one awhile back to use in my LR-308 & LR-6.5 Creedmoor.
