Gas system and Recoil system are not playing nicely together. Open your adjustable gas block setting up to WIDE OPEN, until we sort this whole Race-Gun out. That's the one thing that you can change right now, that won't cost you anything. More details on the barrel first. List the barrel manufacturer and configuration, including gas port diameter and gas block journal size. Lets start there.

Brother - you don't remember that? He's already bailed out a solid 1/2 dozen of us in the last several years. He's our Savior. You need to keep up with the current events. In our (errant) circles, he's known as "The Notorious C.O.B."...

Kalbi, brother, Kalbi. It's Korean (갈비). Done enough time over there in the ROK, and eaten tons of it, maybe literally... Lettuce leaf, rice, red pepper paste (Go Chu), and the meat all wrapped up. I could get fat(ter) living on that stuff. I love it.

So close on the timing for the shoot - would be nice to have you here for it. Missed by a week-ish, roughly. There's always the future, knowing now that you come to town to visit. We've been know to throw down shoots just because someone is coming into town - so next time that might happen, let us know in advance - we'll throw together an over-nighter or just a day trip, just to shoot with people that are members here. Sheit, that how most us all met, in the first place...

You just can't STOP working yer ass off, can ya?...

This thread just gets better and better, you fuckers...

That little hooker on the right is so damn sexy...

He did well - he got his Mk12 together before his Pops got one together. I'm just sayin'...

Fully processed 328 9mm cases tonight after work. Right now they're primed and ready to get loaded tomorrow. That'll have me setting well for the Fall Shoot, with what I already have on hand. 55gr 5.56 is up in the next couple days. Then I'm finished, and ready to truck it all out to the Secret Desert Test Facility.

Is that Overall Length (OAL), end to end, or is that the bottomed-out internal depth. The internal depth is what matters. Internal depth needs to be 9 11/16".

Phil, here's the buffer that will work quite well: https://www.primaryarms.com/KAK-LR-308 Here's one from HeavyBuffers.com that works even better - the machining is flawless - You'd be after the first one listed on this page: http://heavybuffers.com/ar10carbine.html

How long you in town down there? I'm 60-ish miles away.

Coffee is voluntary, brother - and we can't make them drink it, from our side of the keyboard... Though I'd like to at times.

Thanks for complying. It's always easier than trying to force information from someone.

Have you been reloading for more than a minute? Experienced, is what I'm asking. 1st post, no background, and no info on your experience with reloading mentioned. Please elaborate. Maybe hit the Intro Section, and tell us about yourself. Before we give out load data that will blow up in your face. Hope that makes sense. Questions about your gun hardware will be inbound, shortly. Recoil system details, gas system details. The usual things we ask of people. Might as well just give up those details right now, and shortcut the process. You might not even have a load problem - but a gun problem. You always have to fix the gun, first. Otherwise, you're wasting your time pissing around with loads tailored to a gun that doesn't work, just to try to get it to work. Rip up the Intro Section. In the mean time, check out this thread right here - this is the "usual" thatwe need from people, just to figure out the gun, first, which is the most important step. Working gun, THEN, working loads for a working gun... If we have to waterboard you for information about your gun, we become quite pissed. Hope that makes sense, too.

Just saw one of those revolver/rifles the other day, and it was interesting. This Leever-Gun, though, has me hooked.

WTF IS THAT?!!? I LIKE THAT! ALOT!!! FML. Thanks. ALOT. I found it already. God Daymit. https://www.henryusa.com/firearms/lever-action-axe-410/

Day after I took that pic, my truck was stolen, with the targets in the back - so I can't even prove it and show it to you... We'll get it done, brother. The barrel, cartridge - and your good trigger - we can't fail. You're gonna LOVE this platform, big time. Sidenote - I just led you down the Mk12 Rabbit Hole, too...

I was trying to recreate this face whilst shooting that day - had a vision in my head, and wanted it on the target. I'm just an amateur, but I got pretty close... From this video...

My brother - you've done very, very well. You will love this gun, maybe more than any other. That's not because the caliber is badass, or this or that - but, because you set a vision in your head, and you stuck to it, and waited to make it happen. This gun had YOU behind it - not just some purchase off a shelf. Now, don't get me wrong - 6 ARC is a baaaaad motherfucker. BAD!!! You are gonna LOVE THIS THING... The trigger is badass, the barrel is capable of incredible accuracy, and the cartridge is something that we haven't seen in a long, long time... - It's innovative, and it works very, very well. You're gonna love it when you shoot it, and I only hope I can be your spotter when you touch it off for the first time - I'll drive to make that happen. No kidding. You don't paint a smiley face within 10 rounds of zero-ing that scope, though, and I'm gonna fuk with you endlessly... The barrel and ammo is capable... Ratchet down that loose nut that's right behind the trigger, because that's all it's gonna take. You gotta do this, and that's why I wanna be your spotter... I can't WAIT to see you Yank Trigger on this thing, man. You WAY FULFILLED your call-out on The Rule.

Plenty - we'll time that thing when you get here. Don't worry bout finding any, I got 'em.

^^^ Both those guns might say "Mossberg" something about rail mounting... but those are Rem 1100 pattern shotguns - Look at the safety, behind the trigger. If those were full-on Mossbergs with a top-safety, I'd be all over one of them.

We only have 1 or 2 guys here with that caliber, so I hope we can get this sorted out with you. We'll try, no matter what.

Worked through 180 6.5 Grendels this morning, 123gr ELD-M loads. Working on the 190 .260 Rem 147gr ELD-M loads right now - halfway through those. After that, it's prepping 9mm cases for some Berry's 115gr copper plated range ammo. I had a 1k round box that's about half full, so I'll load those until I run out of them. That should cover me for the shoot in a few weeks, with what I already have on-hand.
