Trailboss powder for bunny fart quiet supressed 300 BLK loads that will be forthcoming out of my RARR that is arriving at my gun pusher tomorrow. I already have the 110 grain varmageddons, primers and brass. This was the last piece of the puzzle I needed. These should last me a while considering the charge is somewhere in the 5 grain range, and each bottle has about 790 rounds worth inside.

The best thing you can do is LISTEN! to what 98 tells you and do what is requested. He is the 308 AR whisperer. I would bet dollars to donuts that the buffer in your rifle is 3.250" long and about 3.8 oz. As 98 said it needs to be shorter, 2.50" long and about 5.4oz, IF you have a 7" internal measurement receiver extension. If the receiver extension is 7" inside length and whoever built the rifle tossed an AR15 3.250" buffer into it I'de bet they have the wrong spring too.

Those temps are balmy compared to what we really have up here. Woke up this morning to -15*

If someone flies by "the seat of his pants" does the stick or steering yoke of the plane need disinfecting if he farts?

Or this buffer right here. https://www.kakindustry.com/lr-308-parts/308-lower-parts/lr308-carbine-buffer-heavy

Hey! Whatchoo talkin bout there?

Better you guys than us! You'll still have spring 3-4 weeks ahead of up here. I've got about 8-10" in the yard.

He's already met up with us at the shoot we did here in WI. Its all you southern boys we yankees have to get together with.

I've thought about going to our cottage and setting up a hub blind on the ice for a shelter with a small heater in it. Then shooting up to 850 yards at a target using the shoreline hill that is our frontage property as the backstop. The ice is thick enough to drive on and the snow isn't too deep yet.

At least by the sounds of it the shooting ranges should be open. Just not the one closest to me until maybe July.

Come on up. 223, 6.5 Grendel, 300 BLK, and now 375 Socom to choose from.

Ok, ok ALL the time!!

Sometimes a thread going sideways leads to good things

I'll take some if you want to give them to me.

Ammo, Shmammo! I've got close to 500 220 grain BLK subs loaded up and 500 more waiting to get loaded. Brass, powder and primers to go with them. Same bullets my son and I were shooting at our WI summer shoot through my 8" BLK pistol.

Not likely. But that might be a question to ask Ruger about how to possibly convert it. The mag well is completely different. The AR style rifle even has an AR mag release button. It comes with a 10 round mag but supposedly anything that will fit an AR will work. Speaking of BLK. You have BLK brass in your box thats ready for airlift.

Talk about mortaring them in there!

Two sets of Walker's Razor ear pro. One for me, one for my son. 200 pieces of new .375 Socom brass. A Ruger American Ranch 300 BLK that takes AR style mags. I'm looking forward to mousefart quiet subsonic loads since there won't be a need to have enough gas to move a BCG.

.....and possibly the same for different people. At 6'6" I would have no problem shooting @ARTrooper's rifle with the stock fully extended. Every one of my rifles has the scope in almost that exact same position for the same exact reasons.

You gave up on the spider monkey that crawled up your back while you were shooting? Say it ain't so!

You got more snow down there than we did up here. 4 maybe 5 inches and that was it. I'll have to break down and get the driveway cleaned up tomorrow.

Nice thoughts but fake. Consider section 98. If this came from a ruling of the Supreme Court in 1866 they must have been tripping into the future. The US didn't have 50 states until 1959 and even then only 49 of them are on the continent. People who make this shiit up need to at least have historical facts straight. Oh wait.....most of the sheeple don't either and lap this shiit up.

I figured you would jump all over this.

The practical problem with a 270 WSM AR is can you get a bolt for the bigger diameter case to work with a 308AR BCG and upper? .308 on left. 270WSM on right. Pretty substantial diameter difference.

1) First issue- with the BCG installed, when I try to seat the upper into the lower, the BCG strikes the buffer. I will close, but I can tell the two pieces are impacting. As a result, I can engage the rear take down pin...the pin does not line up with upper receiver hole. That is exactly what is supposed to happen. The BCG should push back slightly against the buffer. That way when the spring slams the buffer forward it doesn't snap off the buffer retainer pin. 2) Second issue- I removed the buffer and spring, and attempted to close with only the BCG/charging handle installed. Same issue, it is still slightly off, preventing the rear takedown pin from lining up. This should tell you that it isn't a buffer/spring issue. If the PSA upper and Aero lower do not mate up with no spring tension at all you have a case of the two pieces not made to the same tolerances and specs. Its not uncommon for 308ARs made from parts from different companies to have issues. There is no milspec in the 308AR world. (By the way, you do not have an AR10. It did not come out of the Armalite factory in any way shape or form. Companies that make parts for these big ARs throw around the term AR10 as if it is a universal term....IT ISN'T). By the look of your spring/buffer picture you have a carbine spring and buffer from PSA and a rifle spring and buffer from Aero. Do you have a carbine or rifle length buffer tube? A carbine spring/buffer will not work in a rifle tube, and a rifle spring/buffer will not work in a carbine tube. There are numerous threads here on the forum detailing many of the failures of PSA in trying to put out a functioning large frame AR. They do whatever they want with proprietary specs and parts then claim they will do things they don't. I'm sure someone with more diagnostic skill than I will chime in and make further suggestions. Take their recommendations to heart, listen to what they tell you and then do it. Don't get butt hurt when a suggestion points to the fact that some of the parts you may have purchased aren't up to snuff. These guys have been getting people's rifles to function for years if they listen to what is being told to them.
