Way to go Mike I like the idea of being a smarter hunter...good job! Wash

Jsnake do not worry bout the barrel nut...I changed out a hand guard and barrel from Palmetto and had to use a breaker bar on the barrel wrench to take off the barrel nut....never have had to do that...so im sure yours is on tight! Wash

They had to special order size 13 4E boots for both my feet......no $hit so that's the reason you never put your foot in your mouth? Wash

Sisco this is no $hit....you be sure the boot is the right size and has been fitted to you......that's how Char fractured her back...wrong boot not fitted.... Wash

Hey Jsnake A lil bit of both prolly ....as for break in everyone has their own theory....lol As for me I clean it then go shoot it...I don't do the one round clean thing...I shoot the barrel till I see the groups go wide and weird......did you know that a lot of folks have ruined their barrel by not knowing the proper cleaning procedure....and you can actually over clean your barrel......when you have a new barrel the bullet is actually smoothing and filling in the imperfections....then you clean the heck out of it (overclean) and you got an unhappy barrel for high dollar barrels,,,yes the barrel maker will want you to break it into the factories spec........one other thing if you nick or damage the crown its fubar time . your scope could be the culprit too...did you use a fatty torque inch pound tool? how many inch pounds did you tighten the scope to? although most all of my 308 barrels like FGMM 168 and Privi 168 maybe try a totally different grain? could it be you too causing the poor groups?.....and finally it could be the barrel you cant rule that out Bfoos groups look pretty damn good with lighter pills Wash

BK New York? I dont think you can even visit a fire arm forum if you live in NY? Welcome from Texas Wash

This Mr. Weiss is gonna get me killed. had to go back up in the attic to fix what I fixed at 11pm last nite ,and ive got him flying around in my vision while im going up and down the ladder in my slides.... its the same reaction as would have if there was a bee flying around in your face....you wanna swat him..... Wash

And here I was thinkin its 2am here but its only 12 there and 98z is out of control

NOW That's FUNNY ! So of course I gave the floater a name....you're his Godfather Mr. Weiss is here like all day today...well crap.....Mr. Weiss only comes around when I move my head...anyone got a neck brace they can loan me?....no wait ...that wont prevent me from moving my head ....crap Wash

Wash

BF you are a fine member here....so not to worry about someone taking your hard work the wrong way....As for me...I said it once and ill say it again Ar-tenner is pretty much anal and has run out of $hit to do ........ The Tubbs is a great upgrade for one thing...no matter what its made of...and seven years of use with no problem... well duh I would prolly get another even if its made out of coat hanger wire....as for putting pressure on the detent when pulling the spring out or putting it in....leave it alone for God's sake... Wash

Ran across these https://www.joeboboutfitters.com/Matrix-Arms-AR-15-Charlie-KeyMod-Handguard-p/ma-charlie.htm bout 49 bills they have a few different types one of the ar's I built with my Bud had a stngr which is damn nice in fit feel finish https://www.stngrusa.com/ bout 99 bills I put this one up against my bravo kmr high dollar mofo...and I would take the stngr the shop is bout 15 mins from my home...no on rails for 308s just yet so I bit on the 49 matrix .... Wash

Nav its one of the most common problems on why a big frame AR wont cycle...no crap lol Wash

LOL Ive been using eye vitamins.....most Eye Docs want folks over 50ish to get on em...maybe Eye Doc has some good info on eye vitamins? Wash

Hell...the news cycle just dropped this deal right off the face of the planet....This really bothers me above almost all else....lack of news...wrong news...no news...I don't need a tinfoil hat for this stinkin mess Wash

Welcome from Texas ! Wash

No $hit............You guys can tell the difference? Wash

that's a good one Rene ! glad rehab is done for you....in our age group we are in rehab by just doing chores around the house! Wash

Yall heres the bad thing with building all these rifles....My Bud gave me an Anderson upper/ lower for helping him...I refused ,but he insisted ...he won...lol geez these andersons are nice and super tight....great...got no funds for a build everything is going for Char's operation Nov 3......cash deal with the Doc 's very reasonable...the hospital for the OR and one night effin crazy...started at 31k....ended up at 11k ...money in full up front for everyone.... hey l know...lets raffle off this Anderson upper lower Wash

Brother Rene I told my buddy lets torch it.....he laffed, and said look at your work area....its a fire ready to happen without a torch.... How you doing with rehabbing? are you bored yet with retirement?...lol I bet not Wash

Brothers ,Ive, been on a building rifle binge for the last few days....helping my buddy catch up on his rifles....so he does things a lil different....he collected parts for 5 different rifles and has been saying for the last year ill be over....lol So he retired from work 2 weeks ago, and now its binge building. One of the projects is putting a freefloat stngr rail on a 762x39 PSA upper. Folks always ask how much torque on the barrel nut? Sunofabitch...the guy that put this barrel on was Hercules ...nuthin would budge this barrel nut....couldn't find my breaker bar on the workbench,so we had to go buy a big ol breaker bar for the barrel nut wrench....Im thinking its got locktite or rockset.....so we get back home hes holding the wrench to the barrel nut and im using all my weight and then some ,and it squeaks as it loosens....daaaamn now that's just stupid tight...once off it had lubraplate grease no locktite...rifle looks good with that stngr rail...gotta get one some day ....on to the next build Wash

Welcome aboard ! Wash
