If you're stuck on the .308 parent case... Have you looked at the .260 Remington?... Trajectory very similar to the 7mm-08, and a hell of alot less recoil... I'm just sayin'... Make your own brass from .308 brass. It's just another set of dies...

Sweet Baby Jesus, this build parameter is a godsend. You can do that distance with a 16" barrel, in a .308 Win pattern. You'll be a Deer Slayer at 300 yards with it. Easy. A 16" gun would be highly accurate at 60o yards, easy. Then, you go and throw out the 7mm-08. That's an 1100 yard cartridge, all day long, from a shitty gun. Let alone an accurate one. I'd bet that you could build a 7mm-08 AR with a 18" barrel that would be 900/1000-yard accurate, with ease. No kidding. Shorten that up to a 16" barrel, lose a few fps for muzzle velocity-over-trajectory, and you'd still be banging the hell out of 800 yards without a sweat. 2-stage trigger on an AR. World of difference for accuracy. You're used to the bolt gun world, light pull single stage - that trigger is already pre-set. No take up. Any pressure you apply makes it go bang, with no take up. ARs are different. Take up the slack with the first stage, it stops. Additional pressure/poundage sets it off. 2-stage trigger in an AR is just about mandatory for accuracy or precision. I have a 2.5lb TImney on my Rem 700, and it's just press-and-go. No take up. An animal like that, in an AR, just about doesn't exist, hence the need for a good 2-stage.

Exactly. FUkc them. And Fukc Dicks...

That's quite alright here.

Sneaky bastard - welcome aboard again... You know more than you're letting on.

It does a great amount for accuracy - and you should know this already, with shooting all the AR15s in the highpower matches...

Welcome. You're already shooting 300gr pills, so you know something - spill it, man!

Tell me about different gas tube lengths. I'm not talking carbine, midlength, and rifle. I'm talking about something COMPLETELY else. If you don't know what I'm talking about - there's a reason for that. School me on recoil systems for the large frame ARs. No, don't school me - just tell me the differences in them. I'd be happy with that. The bottom line is this - don't act like you know everything. There isn't a person out there that knows "everything" on a Large Frame AR. Well, maybe Pat Raley, but I digress... Shoutout to @mrraley Trying to draw you out, brother...

Go compare a DPMS LR308-based firing pin to the Armalite AR-10 firing pin, and THEN take a look at the DPMS G II firing pin - tell me what you see... Tell me now, like I've learned, that you know all about this platform. I don't know everything - something surprises me every single day, and it's a mind-trip. I freaked the first time I looked at a G II firing pin... But, you don't know that. You think you can run this thing on minimal lube. Carry on, boy.

Tert, whatever - I already spelled it out right here in my post on this. ^^^ But you go ahead and give your expert opinion on it, with the one you "built."

You have ONE. Your subject base is ONE. Go build several others, boy, and tell me how it works out for you, with your minimal lube. You got lucky, nothing more, and you think that's the way it is. You didn't say BONE DRY - I'm the one that said that, and I didn't reference it to you in any way I said anyone can build an AR15-format rifle, and dun it BONE DRY, and it will initially function - IF something wasn't fucked up in the assembly. You "have trouble seeing much different in design from an AR15", because you don't have the experience on the Large-Frame Platform. You think it's all cute and easy, like AR15s are - and that is not the case. There is no spec, like the too-easy AR15s have , there are THREE different major platform designs involved, and that's not counting the crazy shiit that POF does, or the DPMS G II, and several others. There's NO pattern to follow, like an AR15. You go build something from all-parts, from different manufacturers, run it with your minimal lube, and honestly come back in here - and ask us to diagnose your current issue that you're having, so you can fix it, and move on to the next issue that you're having. It happens every single day here.

I meant to come in here and post this article, on the topic. I was distracted by the commentary... http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2018/05/18/cuomos-open-letter-to-trump-after-texas-school-shooting-slammed-on-twitter-do-something.html

Amen. Thus endeth the sermon.

Nope. Not sad at all, considering the viscious cycle we've been through with fucked up politicians that don't know the first thing about semi-autos, in the least. The first thing they think is "I HOPE IT WAS AN AR OR AK THAT HE USED!!!" so they can go on their tirade about the fakeass "assault weapons" thing again. It's not sad to feel that relief, not in the least. It's SAD that the other side is just chomping at the bit, HOPING that's the firearm used - so they can push their agenda. THAT is what's sad. AS FUK. They give not ONE FUK about how many people were killed. Zero Shiits. They just want it to be "people killed with the gun they want banned FIRST..." And then, there's the second one, third one, etc. For the other side, it's even better that it was a school-aged shooting, so they can capitalize on kids. Again.

That's why I'm all over the idea of the Federal Semi-auto license idea. It's a ZERO COMPROMISE situation, from OUR standpoint - legal gun owners. It makes the other side think we really made a huge compromise - and then THEY NEED TO GIVE SOMETHING. Everyone went batshit nuts on that, and giving anything away, and wanted every single inch back that was ever taken in history. Anyone else out there with a semi - and no license - bam. Jail. Works with suppressors, right? Yeah, if you have one, and you don't have a stamp for it, you're a felon-in-waiting. Works with SBRs/SBSs, right? Yeah, if you have one, and you don't have a stamp for it, you're a felon-in-waiting. I don't see the big deal in the kickback on that idea... it would fucking WORK.

Anyone, anywhere, can build an AR15, with whatever-parts from whatever-place, and run the thing BONE DRY very easily. The big ones here, not so much. Ain't happenin'...

Yeah, he got his "first PA GEN II" according to his first post here, on March 20th,the same day he joined.

How many of your 8 ARs are large-format ARs? Please list them.

Politicians waste no time. (R) comments are towards the top or the article, (D) comments are towards the bottom... http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2018/05/18/texas-school-shooting-sparks-reaction-from-trump-other-lawmakers-this-has-to-stop.html

Just happened this morning... http://www.foxnews.com/us/2018/05/18/texas-high-school-shooting-leaves-at-least-8-dead-suspect-in-custody-report.html

Dismantle that shitty "legacy" one piece at a time.

Strong move, brother. Very Mormon.

" Officer Mark Dallas "charged" after a young gunman fired at him at Dixon High School in Illinois, officials said. They added that the officer shot and wounded the potential killer. " Badass. http://insider.foxnews.com/2018/05/17/illinois-school-police-officer-stops-shooting-gutfeld-media-coverage-incident

Nope, you're good, brother. That reticle on a .308 is the sheeeit. I've got it on a Rem 700 bolt gun,and it is excellent. Also have it in a Mk12 Mod 1, and it delivers. Great, great scope, all the way around and any way you slice it. It'll do everything you need it to do on a .308 Win round. This 3~18 scope is something they jumped on, when a couple other scope manufacturers just talked about it, and said they're gonna make one. All talk, and PA beat them to the punch on it. It's more of a competition type scope, with a little more magnification for longass shots, but not something that's 24x. It's in the PA 2018 catalog, and you can see all the reticles that will be offered for it. I think it's pg 31. My bad - pg 7 is this scope... Oh, the R-GRID reticle is back, and it'll be back on the 4~14 scope, too... http://primaryarmsoptics.com/2018-catalog/ For the record - the just-released 1~6 SFP scope with the Griffin Mil reticle is badfuckinass... Just got it in my hands today, after some serious USPS-horsefuckery.

Advertised price is gonna be $499. FFP, illuminated, with several reticle choices.
