I have been hunting with .308 for 20 some years for deer. When I was in the Navy reserves, we used Lake City Match ammo. The bullet is a 168gr High Sierra boat tail hollow point. You can buy the same over the counter. With my Win model 70 short action 26" heavy barrel, I can put 6 rounds in a 4" circle at 200 yards. Through the years I have hunted with my FAL, HK91, and this year I am going to use my freshly built Mega Maten AR-10. I see that Arizona has relaxed there mag restrictions. Cool! For me here in Washington, we have never had a mag restriction. But!. ALL the rounds must be hunting rounds and no FMJ. Oh and we can use luminated scopes also. We do have a minimum caliber for big game. .264. Our state game department has some formula that the bullet must create at least 350lbs of impact at 100 yards.

That's the way the receiver came. I did take some 320 grit sand paper and kinda smoothed out the area around the new hole.

Thanx guys for the welcome. I have been building AK's for awhile and needed a different challenge.

Awhile back I purchased a 80% lower from Tactical Machining. I also bought there jig. Upon receiving my stuff, I put the lower in the jig. Clamped everything in a bench vise and started drilling the selector by hand. Well needless to say I messed it up. Not only was the hole not in the correct location but at an angle so the other side was way off. I work for a global airplane manufacturer and when a hole is drilled wrong they fix it with what is called a freeze plug. What a freeze plug is, it is a aluminum dowell that is slightly larger diameter than the hole you just drilled. Then they freeze the pug with liquid nitrogen or some other sud zero means. Then they press the cold plug into place and let it thaugh out. When it gets to ambient temp it swells for a super tight fit. Then the hole is redrilled correctly. If it works for airplane structure than why would it not work to repair the hole I drilled on the receiver? Well I did just that and it worked. I redrilled the selector hole using a drill prees and the hole is now perfect. I took some pics of the finshed hole and you can see where the bad hole was......I should have took pics before I started but did not think to. Enjoy the pics. I thought I would give everybody a heads up on repairing a bad hole. [img width=810 height=607]http://i473.photobucket.com/albums/rr97/rdb241/photobucket003.jpg
