Don't leave out Quarter Circle 10. They make very, very nice stuff. https://www.quartercircle10.com/

That's a good find, right there.

Fuk it - it's all over now. Let's just push everything into the center of the room and light it on fire.

Cool. 12 years in Tacoma, myself. Past life. Wet-Side Life RULES. What's your goal for this gun? What do you want it to do for you? Proclaim some desires, of what you want it to do. Thanks for the help - that we need to help you - with the requested suggestions.

Wow. PIcs don't tell much. You stuck a piece of brass in the chamber. If you have a collapsible stock - then collapse it all the way down to closed. Stand the gun upright, and SMASH the charging handle with a dead-blow hammer, until you unlock that thing. Yeah, no kidding - you're sacrificing a charging handle, possibly. Whack it hard, too, numerous times. You'll unlock that piece of brass. There is no other way around that ^^^. Smash it.

I see that you were on here at 7:50am yesterday, but you still haven't addressed this. That's okay though. You've said enough about yourself already. Well done.

^^^ Wilson Combat now ships that exact same barrel with a 0.080" gas port diameter. Wonder why?...

Reloading is a completely different animal, brother. Completely. My initial loads for the .260 Rem never failed. 147gr Hornady ELD-M projos and the RL-22 powder. Ran that fucker like a champ. When I branched out into other loads, projos, - and even a factory load from NEXUS - wouldn't even cycle the gun. So, ONE LOAD would cycle the gun... and it was a stellar performer, so I didn't care. That load - the one that I really wanted - worked. Once I tried out the Nexus 130gr Laupa Scenars - that factory load, FIRST factory load ever through that gun... and it didn't even cycle the action?! I know something was wrong, WITH the gun. Chased down some other previous loads I tried, looked at everything - gas port too small, when you crunch gas port numbers. That thing was a 20" rifle-gas .260, with a 0.750" journal size, running a 0.070" port diameter. Too little. Punched that thing to a (real) 0.081" - runs everything now. All of it. All of my previous failed "other weight" handloads, AND that NEXUS 130gr Lapua Scenars. As well as powders, and their burns rates/power, make a difference - if that gas port diameter isn't straight to begin with, you'll only find ONE combination or two that really work. At that point, it's not the powders, or your loadings - it's coming down to the gas system itself. Never be afraid to punch a gas port up. Ever. If you fuk it up and go too high - then there's a metric shiit-ton of adjustable gas blocks on the market that can fix your over-sized drilling error.

That's what you say now - until the computer forensics come back, and tie it to some free-porn that you clicked, 10 years ago...

Eh, one of these days, you'll post a real pic of the malfunction - then we can really see what it is. Your description isn't very telling. Whenever you post up- and get a real pic of this jam - we'll figure it out quick. No pics = not much to go on, based on what you described. Get a real pic of this jam up here, and we'll solve it. I'll wait.

Those are usually "announced." I think we just caught one recently, that the Software-Geek super-powers did NOT let the board owner know that there would be an "upgrade" - they just decided to do it on their own. That fucked us. NORMALLY, the idiots that just run software will ANNOUNCE that there's gonna be an upgrade, so you can warn your members about it. I don't think that happened last time. They must think that THEY own US... Not the other way around. Do what you're paid to do, software geeks. We don't work for YOU. You get paid to do what WE say you are to do. Glad that's straight. Carry on.

Gotta be straight - that's what the rest of this fucking country is doing right now, and THEY can't be wrong. Just watch the news on it all. Trash your own neighborhood, and REALLY sho the Gub'mint that you're serious. Destroy your own shiit, in your own 'hood - and it's relegated into the limelight, via MSM. All those people "protesting" have to be right.

So far, so good. Only about 100 rounds through this one, at this point, just to break it in and test function. The SBA3 works.

Pics. Show us the jam.

I was talking about that horse! That's a badass horse!

I just need the gun and the brass - I'll do the rest. Loads will appear, and they'll be effective, and accurate.

Black socks are a given, I'll pimp some Barry White in the background - or make it the initial foreground, brother... I've got GoPro's out the ass - what do we need to do with that footage?

I need to get crackin' on 500BLK loads, to get that thing ready for SHOT '21. Let's put it out there on Industry Range Day.

DAMN!!!

Let's just fix it ourselves, and end the heartache, Cliff.

Wet Side, or Dry Side? Welcome aboard.

MIght be. I don't remember the horse heads or the bikini tops, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen...

My Rott HATED my Jeep... As big and bad as he was - I throw his ass in the Jeep and take him for a ride. If the doors were ON- he was cool. Sitting in the passenger seat, hanging out, tongue FLAPPIN'! If the doors were NOT on the Jeep... then that fucker was all UP AGAINST ME, to the point that I couldn't even shift that thing, with his heavy ass laying over on me... He did NOT LIKE the no-doors shiit. Not even.

You know the deal, brother. Dogs have "owners." Cats have "assistants," those a$sholes. My Rott was fucking AMAZING. 10lbs for every month old he was, until 10 months - 100lbs. at 11 months, he was 105. At two years, he was 125. At 3 years, he was 152lbs - and just RIPPED, like Arnold in the original Terminator. He was a fucking beast. I had to get rid of him because my first wife was a fucking biotch. So, $2k dog - I gave him away for free to a familiy friend in Ohio - and I paid my own money to air-freight his happy ass from Washington to Ohio. They got him for FREE. THAT pissed her off, too... At 5 years old, he almost ate the local mailman. After that, it was downhill for him. Lesson learned - do NOT be a stranger that approaches the front door every single day. Not with him, the way I trained him. He was a protector, and a giant fucking version of that protector, too. I had an orange Tiger cat at the time - the whole time I had the Rott - and that cat could kick that dog's ass ANYTIME. That was a badass cat. He'd get on top of that giant dog and ride him through the house... This sums it up.

I'll fire that paint scheme up again soon, on this new little .308. Desert Tiger Stripe.
