welcome

From DPMS Ammunition Warning After extensive testing, we have found that only ammunition manufactured to SAAMI (Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers Institute) specifications is reliable in DPMS rifles. DPMS recommends the use of high quality, domestically produced ammunition for best results and highest accuracy. For plinking and practice, we recommend only domestic, commercially manufactured ammunition. Please note: the use of hand-loaded ammunition voids the factory warranty. The use of all ammunition listed below also voids the warranty. We have incurred feeding problems with the following: Israeli ammunition Korean ammunition Chilean ammunition Portugese ammunition PMP South African produced surplus We have used this ammunition in the past for testing purposes and found the brass is extremely soft and can "flow" into microscopic pores and grooves in the chamber creating "sticky" extraction. This has been reported in many types of rifles, but is more prevalent in semi-automatic weapons. Lacquer Coated Ammunition or Steel-cased, lacquer coated ammunition Wolf Norinco Silver Bear Any steel-cased (coated or non-coated) ammunition The problem with this ammunition is that the lacquer coating on the case. As the barrel heats up, the lacquer turns to a soft, varnish substance and upon cool down, becomes very solid and difficult to remove. This effectively creates an undersized chamber and creates understandable problems. Your rifle is an investment and it only makes sense to choose quality ammunition for a quality rifle! Barrel Information To achieve the best results for accuracy you should clean the chamber and bore after every round for the first 25 rounds and then every 10 rounds up to the 100 rounds. It usually takes about 200 rounds per barrel for optimum accuracy. Please keep in mind that our barrels are production barrels not custom barrels. Accuracy is dependant upon many factors such as bullet weight, powder load, rifling twist, rifling lands, operator technique, etc. Our production barrels have achieved anywhere from 1/8" to 1 ½" M.O.A. Obviously, we would hope that every production barrel would shoot 1/8" M.O.A., but with all of the above factors, we cannot guarantee a specific group size.

Alright guys enough of the three and five round groups. Thats for bolt actions weapons. Lets test our weapons, ammunition and abilities. Lets see some 20 round minimum groups. <munch>

Very nice.

Blueglide please confirm via email or PM that you received the gift cert.

I think Americam Spirit also offers one. Being a lefty I wont consider a side charger where the handle reciprocates. I love the idea of the left side non reciprocating chargers.

Good point Hoot, everyones needs and applications are different. One of the reasons I like the ATC SR Gold is that it feels familiar, a lot like the aftermarket trigger in my Remington 700 Hvy Varmint 22-250.

Well some manufacturers are working on getting hardware to market for the DPMS stuff but your options are very limited. sadly folks dont realize this until after they purchase the weapon. Troy is good stuff, DPMS has a few options on their website, Samson is real close. Im not sure who else has an offering. Daniel Defense has no plans for a DPMS height HG.

Great entrance Hoot, nice post and groups <thumbsup>

Wow very nice. Happy Birthday!!

Welcome L2m, and thanks for your service.

Some pretty big cost differences but I prefer the ATC SR Gold. Going to see some recomendations for the Geissele at the same link. If you want to go real cheap Bill Springfield can get your factory trigger in pretty good shape for very cheap
