Impressive !

What barrel do you have ? You should check Velocity as you said , just to make sure where you are at . I see you only have four on target for the 42 gr. load , one go off the target backing ?

That is pretty cool , but how do they know what temperature the brass case is ? Under heating , it would not of done anything & over heating will make the brass brittle & useless . I see they have controls for what looks like speed , so they may have a timed temp. control . I use a temperature marker so I can see when it changes color at the proper temperature range . I have found that all brass is not created equal , but maybe I'm just anal about it .

Maybe it was a S&W M&P , like LA is having so many problems with .?

Wow , looks complicated to make , but also looks like it will do the job , for sure.

I believe the UBR comes with its own Receiver Extension.

Probably need another 100K to restore it .

I use Dillon's spray case lube , no idea what all is in it , but when the cases don't clean properly , they have a slimy feel to them . I'm thinking may be some Paraffin in it or something like it . Just strange it does it once in a while , i need to find what is different about that particular time .

yes

yep

Take a 7.62 x 51 round from an american manufacturer & compare it to any american made 308 round & tell me the difference in those case measurements . Head space gages will be slightly different between the two , of course , but I use a 308 HS gages for all 308 type barrels . I have never seen a commercially available 7.62 x 51 reloading die set & have never used one to reload for my 7.62x51 chambered barrels , in any rifle . The NATO chamber differences are for mostly battlefield conditions , dirty chambers from a lot of firing & little cleaning if any . If ammo is loaded in any country that has NATO spec's , the should conform to those specs , but the problem now a days is non NATO countries making so called NATO spec ammo & its not . You will not see much 308 ammo loaded to max spec's , so that is a none issue , unless you have a fifty plus year old , shot out ,7.62x51 barreled rifle , that could see some case rupturing . The rifle manufacturers have the "don't use this or that because of liability issues "( cover their behinds , from stupidity ) bad old foreign made ammo & reloader's who think they know better than the manuals from the ammo manufacturers . I shoot & have shot almost 99% reloads from every rifle & hand gun I have ever owned & never a problem .

Grade school , sixth grade ?, they announced it over the PA System .

Maybe we should be patient & take it all back a piece at a time , just like it was taken ! Asking for everything you want , could also reward you with nothing & we have been there too many times already , through the years . The repeal of the illegal 1986 law/Ban , would be a great start !

It seems the GOA is going after the 1986 Machine Gun ban , I have to renew my GOA membership . Gun Owners of America Challenging Federal Machine Gun Ban Not a GOA member yet? You can join Gun Owners of America today for only $20! Dear michael, On November 2, Gun Owners of America (and its foundation) joined forces with Dick Heller -- the very one who beat DC’s gun ban before the Supreme Court in 2008. Working in tandem, Gun Owners filed a brief in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in support of a challenge to the federal machine gun ban, which was stuck on at the last minute to an otherwise pro-gun bill in 1986. First and foremost, Gun Owners argues that the “arms” protected by the Second Amendment include fully automatic weapons, and that Supreme Court opinions have bolstered this view. Our brief explains that the Second Amendment is not about hunting or target shooting, but about the preservation of liberty. You can read an analysis of the GOA brief in Hollis v. Lynch -- or view the GOA brief in its entirety here. Go here to financially help support the GOA brief in this case. Since its founding, Gun Owners of America has built its reputation as the “no compromise” gun lobby. We want to repeal any restriction that violates the “shall not be infringed” language of the Second Amendment -- going all the way back to 1934. So GOA is not only working on the above machine gun case. We also want to file another brief supporting this same proposition -- that a machine gun ban is inconsistent with the protections afforded in the Bill of Rights. But we need your help to file it. We have always taken the position that the “arms” mentioned in the Second Amendment are the type of weapons that an infantryman in current military service would be issued. These are, in the words of an old Supreme Court case, “part of ordinary military equipment.” One Court of Appeals judge has explained that the Second Amendment protects the “lineal descendants” of the arms brought to muster on the village green in revolutionary times. Second Amendment helps erect a bulwark against tyranny If the purpose of the Second Amendment is to preserve a “free State,” then the people comprising the militia need to have the same type of “arms” that are available to the military. We think you will like the arguments we made in our first brief to explain this important principle to the court. Among other things, we quote Justice Joseph Story’s explanation regarding the true purpose of the Second Amendment: The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered as the palladium of the liberties of a republic, since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of rulers, and will generally, even if these are successful in the first instance, enable the people to resist and triumph over them. [Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution, Volume III, p. 646.] If the arms owned by the people are profoundly inferior to those of their “rulers,” the ability of the people “to resist” will be diminished, and the “strong moral check” on those rulers will be lost. Of course, that is what Diane Feinstein and her ilk want. GOA is unique among pro-gun groups Sadly, other pro-gun groups have run the other way when fully automatic weapons are mentioned. In fact, a lawyer for one of these other “pro-gun” groups took the position before the U.S. Supreme Court that it was completely reasonable for the federal government to prohibit private ownership of fully automatic weapons. But when David Olofson's AR-15 malfunctioned and he was charged with owning a machinegun, it was GOA that came to his aid -- not any other gun group. No one thinks that the First Amendment should be limited to pamphlets produced one at a time, as in revolutionary days. No one disputes that the First Amendment also protects radio and TV stations and the Internet. Likewise, no one should think that the Second Amendment should be limited to Brown Bess muzzle-loading smoothbore muskets and Pennsylvania rifles. At all times, the Second Amendment was designed to protect the infantry “arms” of the times. Help GOA win these machine gun cases If you agree with me about fully automatic weapons, we could certainly use your help. By making a special contribution to Gun Owners of America, you will help fund the Hollis brief we just filed, and to make possible the next brief that we would like to file, if we raise enough support. The second case is U.S. v. Watson in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit (in Pennsylvania). GOA plans to make similar arguments to those we made in Hollis -- and by bringing several cases in multiple districts, we hope to force the Supreme Court to decide this issue in favor of Second Amendment rights. Again, please consider making a contribution of $10, $20, $50 or more to help support these two cases. Thank you for your defense of liberty!

I'm leaving to hunt in Ohio for two weeks this weekend & its going to be cold up there. Can't wait to get there .

Warm , but rinse & pre wash in hot .

His logic of just sitting it out , is contrary to normal LE procedure or common sense . In a way he is going along with the " don't bother us because we're Black " mentality . Its nice he is looking out for LEO's well being , well sorta . He also makes some good points .

They don't look happy !

Only way to find out , is to try on. I don't know what Mags will or will not work in an RRA rifle , Others here will , I'm sure . Yes, I was making a funny. I don't drink anyones Koolaide . I don't have a fish in this barrel , they are all good to me , mass production & production numbers will determine the amount of problems & returns with anything .

You sound like one of their ad campaigns. ?? We all know the AR 10 is the best rifle ever made & no one has ever had a problem with one & every DPMS LR 308 has a bad barrel & the Bolt breaks after 100 rounds & none shoot less then a 10" MOA , ever . LMAO

PA 10 & RRA are two of the manufacturers that drifted away from the Armalite AR 10 & DPMS formats & have some proprietary components , but I agree , we all wish there would be a MilSpec std. for 308 AR's as there is for the little brother AR15/M16/M4. At least Armalite is drifting towards the DPMS , with its newer model accepting Pmags , pretty soon the name will be the only difference . Take that you Armalite pushers ?

PA 10 & RRA have or use some proprietary components for their rifles or should I say , don't play well with other DPMS type receivers , so your on a R&D ( research & Development ) build . Trippledeuce has said his works , but he has different components involved . Pick a BCG ( As said , as long as the Bolt Head Spaces correctly ) , you have to start some where , might work just fine .

I agree with StainTrain, I don't leave much time for barrel cool down when load testing & if its happening , I don't see it in grouping . Check to make sure your Barrel Nut is torqued to spec's & as said all other components . You don't have a very high round count also & it might make a difference with some rifles .

I didn't know that . Interesting .
