Re: POF 308???

What do you guys recommend? </div></div>
Mine runs great. I run the Geiselle enhanced trigger in mine, just a preference. I'd say around the 50-100 rd mark the rifle and I really settled in.
It took me a couple of weeks of consistent practice to really develop consistent accuracy in shooting a semi vs. a bolt. This isn't a bad thing just different. The side benefit is that it helps remind you of the fundamentals and my bolt shooting improved as well.
The Rock barrels on the POF clean VERY easily(when I clean them), which is the same with some of my bolt guns with Rock barrels.
Another note: A suppressed semi gets absolutely filthy very quickly vs a bolt rifle, as do the insides of the magazine. I've run my POF dry and suppressed, and although the receiver and mag were loaded with carbon, it kept on running well beyond 150 rounds. I did end up cleaning the chamber, BCG and mag after that test.
