Higher balastic coefficient. Shoots just a bit flatter than the Grendel. Still shoot my Grendel's more.

Two of these showed up today. More parts I don't really need but you never know when I decide I need to build something else. Joe Bob's had them for $49 ea and free shipping.

6ARC is A M4 with a different barrel, magazine and BCG. Actual 1000 yd cartridge in a small platform. Shoots flatter than a 308.

Welcome from KY

I have loaded 110gr carbine bullets for my 308 bolt gun for plinking rounds. About 1.5 moa @100yds.

It runs fine now. Bolt locks back just fine. New scope is on. There is 2- 5 shot groups @ 87 yds. Eld match.

Yes

It was very windy and I was shooting off the hood of my jeep without a good rest. Groups were not that good and I didn't even take any pics. There were a couple with bullets touching then a flyer 3" away. If I get a chance this weekend I'll get some groups from sandbags.

https://www.theamericanmarksman.com/primers.html I haven't bought primers from them but a LOT of ammo.

Gas port is now .081 I'll see how that works tomorrow. Scope and mount showed up and are installed.

.0660 drill bit fits w/a little wiggle. .0690 bit won't go in @98Z5V

Nice rifle.

There was plenty of lube. This is a new caliber for Wilson Combat barrels. They don't always get gas ports right on new products. It might just be not broken in yet. The gas block may not be sealed up yet. I am still in the discovery phase of why it isn't running 100%.

I am probably going to add a longer muzzle break to one of my 308 pistols and turn it into a rifle. Just don't see the need (I know need has nothing to do with it) for 2 308 pistols. If the brace thing gets stupid I might have to do a few more pistols that way.

SRV for the win.

It's for playing long range in Az in the fall. It also matches the 6Arc pistol I already built. I've got a hayfield that is about 450 yds long so I might use it on deer in the fall.

I ordered numbered bits . They should be here Thursday. I'll know then what size it is

That would be cool.

That will most likely be pinned. If the rifle functions now there is no need for an adjustable gas block.

It's mid length. I'll shoot it some more and see if it's the gas block sealing up. If needed I'll open it up a bit at a time or drill it out big and use an adjustable gas block. The gun runs 95% on the eld match. Just not well on the black. The black and match are almost the same velocity's.

Got out this afternoon. Robbed a scope off another rifle. The Hornady black doesn't lock back on an empty mag. Locking on the BCG not the bolt. The Hornady Match does most of the time. I only ran 35 rnds through it. Gas block may not be sealed up yet or I might have to open the gas port up a bit. I didn't measure it before assembly. Getting velocity's in the 2630 range out of both loads. Very windy today. Wind was actually blowing my targets around so the groups sucked.
