  1. The Predator looks like a pretty dedicated long distance rifle. And about .8 pounds heavier then the Seekins. Guessing with that Bull barrel it is a little nose heavy. Personally I prefer the standard stock to collapsible stocks so that is a point in it's favor. Going from 1 in 8' to 1 in 7' you would probably only notice the difference if you are shooting a lot of 75-77grn. projectiles at distance. And the Predator Bull Barrel might negate any advantage the Seekins would have in that area. Your right, I would guess the Seekins is handier. The new ARs seem so much lighter and handier then the older ones. I think they have improved the center of balance or something. I got a Diamondback DBFDE-2 a while back and was amazed at the handling improvements versus a similar Olympia arms 16" I had for 8 years.
  2. With the shortage of ammo, and now reloading stuff getting down, the purpose of this thread is to give members heads up where they might find some necessary reloading supplies. I have been having some success with Lohman Arms out of Texas getting Hornady 168 gr AMAX and 44 caliber hollow points. Also found some 45 acp Hornady Hollow PointS at Selway Armory in Montana. Both good companies to work with.
  3. Been eating on that thing for three days!
  4. When I got my side of beef, I told the butcher to make all steaks 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick. The beauty of buying a side of beef, that steak cost me $12.
  5. Yep! A Brontosaurus steak!
  6. 4 pound 22 inch long by 2 inch thic k round steak on the Akorn.
  7. Those “Smoking Stones” work!👍🏻
  8. Only 38 special I have is maybe 15 rounds I got when my Dad passed away. It has to be 50 years old, minimum!
  9. It is bigger then Cali. Will probably mean a rewrite of any legislation attempted on a national level. HR 7517 is in committee of the House of Representatives, with no chance of passing the Senate, but will be brought back again next year I am sure and who knows. And I believe it try's to outlaw manufacture of extended capacity magazines along with a host of other stuff. Having this on record could blunt that.
  10. Welcome from Wisconsin good luck with the build.
  11. Good luck, it indeed looks interesting. I wish you well with your endeavor.
  12. Roam, quite simply, if you want to have street credibility with the people knowledgeable about large caliber AR’s, Remove “AR 10” from your vocabulary. That is an Armalite Corporation Trademark, and banding it around for firearms that CANNOT interchange parts with an Armalite AR 10 is going to lead to confusion and upset customers. I looked at your web site, and you need to REMOVE all mentions of AR 10’s and replace them. You could replace them with “MAR 10’s “ or just about any nomenclature, just NOT AR-10. Trust me this will save your company monumental headaches, not to mention avoiding Trademark infringement law suits.
  13. Looks very interesting.
  14. Are they true"AR10"'s? Based on the Armalite proprietary design, or 308AR's based generally on the DPMS design? Or something else?

    Thanks Ron. It shoots so well I can’t justify changing anything. I almost went with a free float hand guard, but I doubt that would make me shoot it better. Just glad I built up my inventory of B model Gen II magazines. I do like the old style leather sling. I have them on all my 20 in barrel ARs and my M1A now.
  19. Only you guys can make a post about a missing barrel nut entertaining..
