  1. I have only run147~150 grain bullets through mine. As I have not shot anything for paper groups, I canot comment on how tight mine shoots groups. What I can say is that hitting small rocks and shards of clay pidgeons on the back berm at 100 with irons is showing me that I have a rifle accurate enough fr me; all shooting unsupported offhand. What I will say is that all of the American factory loads seemed to shoot into a palm sized point of impact roughly the same as eachother, with Tula being the odd load out for worse "groupings". Some were noticably smaller, but I didn't pay much attention to point of impact, as I was doing more of function shooting with the ammo. I keep in mind that most rifle will outshoot me, and there are more variations going on than the rifle when I am shooting. If I do my job well, the rifle will make me look good; just like a Ruger M77 shooting irons at 1,000 yards and dusting a 24" culvert with crappy handloads and pulled military bullets. Technique will help out the shooter way more than many other things, and it sounds like you hve yours down with the smaller rifle, just need to get it "sized up" for the 308.
  2. Good to hear the report. I am sure there will be some brand/load that will work in your rifle to make it meet your expectations. Finding it is the fun part.... ....just have to shoot more.
  3. Good to know. On the other hand, I never did have much use for Minnesota....other than a few good manufacturing businesses....
  4. BWHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!
  5. Then any query about putting the serrations into the bolt carrier is pretty moot. Maybe I can put on a bolt handle thingy and carry a hammer....
  6. The more I look at the pics of the 45AR......the more I want something in that line of "toy". Something that ahs all the feel and sameness, but is alot cheaper and easier to shoot than my 308AR. Maybe one of the 9's out there or a project for down the road. ....great, now I hve something to occupy more of my time/one brain cell now....
  7. As far as the lack of foward assist serrations in the bolt carrier, I am going to call them on Monday and inquire as to the lack of them. And if there is the possibility of getting them cut into mine. When I find out, I will let you know the answer I get.
  8. My carbine didn't come with a fired case that I remember either. And to tell the truth, I could really care less about that manufacturers' fired case anyway. Glad to hear that you are happy with the upper so far. I actually found that i prefer the T-slot attatchment system they use on their forearms. I can lock down whichever length rail I need at exactly the place on the rail I need it. i am awaiting the firing tests for your upper, and if mine is any example....it should be flawless. As far as I know, they do test fire everything that comes out of the shop. Actually, I wouldn't trust a firearm, or upper, that was made until fired. I think they are the same way....that is what I have picked up from talking with them on the phone.
  9. kicking @ss, and taking names, that is what it sounds like you are doing to me! Congrats on the levels!
  10. I wanted to pull the trigger on one, but my wife would have pulled the trigger on me if I did that. It was bad enough to get my TrimIt II past the accounting department.... ....and after typing this in, I am thinking that there has been some retraining going on here....
  11. I haven't been hacked yet, but it almost sounds like a guy should go te way of cash for everything anymore. That and MO for for ordering stuff....
  12. Now I don't have to worry about my man boobs in public anymore!
  13. Now I don't have to worry about my man boobs showing in public anymore!
  14. TX380, coolness on the purchase. You will have a good run with it, I am sure. But, we still need a review when you get it up and running!
  15. Yah, I don't know why links are so choosy with me when I want to watch them through a browser, I have 0 problems with vids when using my app.
  16. Couldn't watch the video either through the link. I will just check in with my youtube ap (that seemsto allow every video to come through) rather than waste any more time with the browser version. I did send off a link to a friend who likes to see new stuff, so at least I got that right.....
  17. Nice. That wasn't all that long, just enough to get the feeling correct, and tell the story.
  18. Is this next, Rsquared?
  19. One more example of how "not everything new is the bestest!" The Warthog is another example of the non-need to have the fastest, newest of every plane out there, when it does exactly what needs to be done in certain situations....and a newer, faster jet isn't what the doctor ordered. But pencil pushers must justify their jobs too.....
  20. There is enough drama/crap in real life to go around without adding more social media input I watched a friend have nothing but complaints from his account, didn't need it. In my exerience from watching the ones I know with accounts, they normally have way more complaining about what is on there than benefits.
  21. Not bad at all. And I double down on the comment about the way many of the males try to look now days in some bands.
  22. No, I don't do any social media stuff. Just watch and listen...... Hell, I don't even do spacebook, twister, or any of those.... ...and can't learn how.
  23. Hahahhahahaa!!! That one maybe just works better than the center one..... ;))
  24. I subbed in to your channel, and pushed you to 670 subscribers. I wouldn't have liked that number of subbers either....
