Armed Eye Doc

Did he taste like chicken?

@98Z5V I figure you will find this on your own, bit no sense taking chances.

I have 2 223W rifles. One is a Bear Creek Arsenal 16" carbine. Last fall, Susan was hitting 600 yds with Hornady 73g match ammo.

A nap.💤

They likely consider 308 to be hunting ammo. I doubt if they will carry 7.62x51 though.

Nice shooting regardless of the rifle.

Here was today's lunch during the cooking. And before the feast.

There is no need to stop coming here. We want to know information that fixes problems. That is what this forum does well. Not all problems are the same and need the same fix. If you have a problem or solution that hasn't been discussed, it helps us to know how to fix the next time this occurs.

That is a sharp looking piece there.

That is some nice leatherwork.

Be sure to include the inside depth of the buffer tube. That is a key to the recoil system functioning properly since you should be good on the spring and buffer.

Welcome to the forum. Is this the rifle he purchased? https://www.stagarms.com/stag-10l-308-m-lok/#ProductSpecsDetail How many rounds through it? Have you tried any other ammo besides your reloads? Can you post a picture of the bolt face with the extractor? Those questions should get the information started until someone who knows more than I do comes along to help.

This appears to be OK, but can you get a picture looking up though the mag well? The gas tube should extend to the middle of the cutout.

The buffer tube looks like it could be screwed in one more turn. It is barely hanging on to the retainer pin. That, along with a buffer tube that is longer than 7 inches internal depth, can contribute to the issue that you appear to be having.

I addition to what @jtallen83 said, Will it hand cycle ammo? Will it hold open on an empty mag with hand cycling? What is the internal depth of the buffer tube?

Welcome from Texas. Be sure to ask any questions you may have. Buying the wrong parts can get expensive.

Welcome to the forum. A description of a firearm without pictures is bad form.

@98Z5V what did you do to piss off the Air Force this time? They say it is an accident. I figure they were aiming for you but missed. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/air-force-jet-accidentally-fires-rocket-arizona-desert-n1050571

I hope you get your dream home. I am useless as far as horses and gunfire go.

@98Z5V, why are you stalking Cliff's deer camp?

Hundreds are missing in the Bahamas. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-49602445?

It must be @Belt Fed. He started all of this crap.
