Sharps (SRC) has their .308AR BCGs available right now - well, as of this email... They're good. They still have 26 in stock right now, and that price ain't bad. https://www.srcarms.com/shop/specials/sharps-308-relia-bolt-carrier-group-complete/?utm_source=Mailchimp&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=04%2F21 BCG Campaign&utm_term=308&mc_cid=52d1fc16c1&mc_eid=b9dec104c6

You're doing quite well.

We're gonna see if it's "lipstick on a Pig" if this bitch don't shoot!... Just kidding - I KNOW it shoots, and maaaaan... does it shoot! It's gonna be fun to take this thing out and run it in a match. I asked for 29 May off today at work, and got it, so this WILL happen. Smallest plate was a 10" at 200 yards - that's 5 MOA at 200 yards, that's a joke. Largest plate was 18" wide at 710 yards. Sheeeiiit - we do that all the time! We're running an 18" wide plate at a mile! 850 yards is the "standard" to start some long-range shooting here, with this crew. It'll be interesting, but maybe I'm already letting my Bulldog Mouth run my Canary Ass, a full month out!...

Noticed it? All the time. There's NO standard for this .308AR pattern/platform, with all the different manufacturers out there. Sometimes, a barrel manufacturer will always drill the gas port location in "their standard" every single time - and another manufacturer does it different. There are even "sometimes" when a specific manufacturer does it one way for awhile - then decides to change... There's no TDP for these guys to follow, like the M16/M4 platform. They get to do what they want. It's not always right, it doesn't always work, and sometimes you have to change up what parts you're using because of it. That's why we measure the barrel IN the upper receiver before ordering gas tubes, these days. Or, have both kinds of gas tubes on-hand, so you're ready for any Large-Frame build that you take up.

The scoring and results are broken down into small-frame AR and large-frame AR. So, everything that fits into an AR15, and everything else that fits into a .308AR. I asked Matt today if I can double-class, take the 6 ARC AND the .260 Rem - he didn't know. So, I'll take the .260 with me, just in case, and double-class if they let me. If not, oh well. I'll shoot the 6 ARC, and check the results of the large-frame class afterwards, and take the .260 the next one... Since they just observed last Saturday, we didn't know what the actual competitors were doing. Talk amongst them, talk amongst the other squads at other stations, etc. After shooting on 29 May, we'll know EXACTLY how much shiit we can talk at the next one... And we will BRING the shiit-talking!...

Last Saturday of every month, there's an "Accurized AR" Match at Cowtown, here in AZ. This little hooker is going out there on Saturday, 29 May, and giving it a run. I've got until then to get my "final handload" all sorted out, so I'll go out this Sunday and run this thing for the first time since paint. Re-run the scope zero, re-run all the chrono data, and re-run the dope charts for it. Here's the deal on the match. It'll be me, @JBMatt, DirtBike Tommy, and Tommy's buddy, Dave. Scroll down to the "Accurized AR Match" to see their description, in the link below: https://www.cowtownrange.com/cowtown-range-events-and-competitions/ Here's the email that DirtBike Tommy received - he and Matt went up there and checked it out last Saturday.

Damn, I need to start charging for this shiit. I just did this one last weekend. This is Sexual Chocolate, on Sunday, before going after it again on Monday. This went down Monday night after work... I'm with Jim - Type III hard annodize is tough stuff. So is Cerakote. So is black nitride. All finishes will wear, including Kimber's "KimPro" finish, which I think is KG GunKote. All will wear over time. I know my old annodized M4A1 was all worn by the time I gave it up.

Truth, brother. Found the fight. She won PROPER!

At this point, I thought you already ran through all that...

That's minor. For normal people, set the bones, get a cast, it's a lower extremity, so it takes longer to heal (that's a blood-flow thing, and age doesn't help, either). For a Pro Athlete like that, he got rodded and pinned today, and he'll be back in action in no time. If it woulda been a finger toe, all fucked up with a bone sticking out, I woulda barfed.

I'm here for you - anytime you need me. I'm here. If I can save you money on therapy - just THINK about the guns that'll get built!...

Oh, you're the Poster Child for something, but it certainly ain't scruples and morality...

There's not a problem with his recoil spring, at all.

That's the right buffer, then, as far as length goes. Measure the gas port diameter with numbered drill bits, until one doesn't fit - the next one down that fit, is the gas port diameter. A small drill index set of numbered drill bits is cheaper than buying machinist's pin gauges. Gas port diameter on that barrel profile need to be 0.093"~0.096". I'd start with a standard weight rifle buffer that's 5.4oz - if your gas port is too small, you're compounding the problem with that heavy buffer.

Lots of great card fights tonight, but the big news was Chris Weidman fighting Uriah Hall. 17 seconds into Round 1 was Weidman throwing a low kick and Hall raised his knee a little to block it. First and ONLY contact in the fight. It was called, IMMEDIATELY. You HEARD both "cracks", too - Tib and Fib - almost simultaneously. It was wicked to see/hear. Anderson Silva fought Weidman 8 years ago, and broke his leg when he kicked Weidman. Weird how things work, I'lll tall ya. Here was that fight: Next best fight was Thug Rose Namajunas, winning her belt back. She fucked that Chinese title-belt-holding girl UP at 1:18 into the first round!

This is your first post here, and it probably doesn't pertain to the OP's question. Starting a new thread, with all your specifics on your parts, will help greatly. Generic information just doesn't work, over the internet, and postings. Follow this as a (great) guide for providing information:

I call bullshite on that, and that's a solid answer... You're Mr. FullAuto... I think what you meant to say was " @Lonewolf McQuade didn't have as many guns when he joined this site, as he does now..." And we know how he pulled that $$$ magic...

What's the length on this rifle buffer? It's either 5.200" long or it's 5.900" long. What's your gas port diameter on this barrel.

^^^ This is interesting, very much. I'm surprised that there's still a school that has any "Rifle-Anything" involved - and it's badass that you were IN one that still let it happen. I'd love to hear about that program (SC, very cool!), no need to give up city and local details... and also what it was like. What did you shoot? What were the targets, distances, etc? Very cool.

9 boxes of Hornady Black 6 ARC showed up at my local Cal Ranch store. I'll get their "box a day" until I buy it out, just to get the brass. The Black is the 105gr BTHP projo, and it's REALLY close in G1 BC to the 108 ELD-M projo they load for the Match ammo. It can't be a BAD load, like that. I'll chrono it and get results up. If it shows up, BUY IT!...

I've DONE this. I'll find the gun I did it to, and get pics up - but I'm pretty sure it was one of the 5.56 pistol builds. It turned out perfect.

Just a regular guy. I just never like the Dungeons & Dragons weird fuckers that gravitated towards my job specialty - and spent the rest of my career staying away from those freaks... Had my Career Branch Manager (total fucking weinerhead living in Alexandria, VA, and never had a hard assignment in his life, and ZERO overseas tours...) tell me that I was "hiding in SF, because I didn't want to face the Real Army..." That turned into a VERY SPICY PHONECALL, RIGHT AWAY!!!... Shortly afterwards, he was not "permitted" to access my records anymore, for "assignment purposes..." Fucking cockgobbler fukwad...

...aaaaand. He hasn't been back since his first post.

You're alright - you keep doing what you're doing, nobody is "irked" by anything that you're posting. Be You, man. You're alright. Post away.

By the time my first enlistment was up, I knew that I loved what I'd done, loved the units I was in, and knew that I wanted to give it a little more. I knew once I was FIRST IN that I needed to get the hell away from these Intel Geeks. My first assignment I requested a tactical unit, and got it, in Korea. Next up, was asking for Airborne school enroute to 1st Special Forces Group, coming back to the states. They gave me my Airborne School - and sent me to 7th Infantry Division (Light) at Fort Ord, CA. Went into Panama on 19 Dec 1989, and got to see that all the shiit we train for is real, and I was hooked. I hit the end of my first term there, and made a bet with my Bn CSM, that wanted me to stay there - I'll re-enlist to stay here if you PROMISE to send me to Ranger School. I did, he kept his promise, and I smoked it. Then, back to Korea after that - requested the same unit that I was in the first time, and got it. No choice, really, by Big Army, at that point. I don't know if it's still in any assignment and personnel management regulations, but what used to be in there was THIS statement: "For Ranger Qualified Soldiers, first priority for unit assignment is that which the Soldier chooses." BAM! On the way out of Korea that time, I DID get my assignment to 1st Special Forces Group, and stayed there for 10 years. I beat the system, in a way, and got what I wanted, but had to work my nuts off for it to happen. I finally got moved to Ft Huachuca and 3 years of that made me say "Fuk this, I'm done." Retired in 2007. As a Senior Leader at that place, I saw some of the corruption, chickenshiit, bullshiit, and horseshiit that goes on with Senior Enlisted at that place. I was done with it. Didn't want any part of it. Now, I'm a happy civilian, fixing anything with an internal combustion engine, and making guns run. I love it all...
