I'm not sure if you want to solve your issue, or just bitch about it. I can help you solve it. The Elftmann trigger is very unique in that it has a "half-cocked" position. YOUR trigger is not catching on the disconnector after firing, and is getting caught on the half-cocked position. THIS is the cause of your "very light primer strikes." You are firing from the half-cocked position. Not enough force to do much. Now,ONE of TWO things is causing this. Only one of two... Nothing else... 1. Poor trigger follow-through. Jerking the trigger, slapping the trigger, etc. Not holding it fully to the rear after firing, and through the recoil impulse. 2. Gross misadjustment of the trigger assembly. The disconnector isn't even given the change of doing it's job, due to the trigger adjustment. Now, I know you've stated your Marine Corps Armorer 2112 qualifications, and I know you stated something about correct follow-through. That leaves misadjustment... Did you fuk with this trigger's adjustments in ANY way prior to installation? Or did you just drop it in and go?...

DAAAAAAAAAMN!!! Suppressed 45-70!!!

What kind/brand of rail is it?

That's pretty sweet, but that was done by ARES Defense several years ago. Almost bought one, just because it's different.

^^^ Gun-grabbing politics rarely has anything to do with performance, safety, or function.

Yeah, take the rail off. Might seem like more work, but it's gonna be ALOT easier in the long run.

I'll never let go of my 1911's. I'll add to the pile. With other pistols, of course. I love my 1911's!

I'm kinda mid-weight, running the 150s almost all the time now. I'm getting almost 1900fps out of them. I still have H110 and 1680, so I'll load up some 110s and see how they do.

Makes perfect sense. I was gonna say, if you were saying that here, after finding it's origin, you'd performed some hellish research. Drew started that, in reference to a politician I believe, and stated, "Fuk them in the neck..." It was instantly hilarious, but ultimately shortened over time, to just "in the neck with them!" and then just "in the neck."

BUT... The ATF didn't return 18 lowers to him. They stated "they lost them..." Yes, the BATFE LOST LOWER RECEIVERS...

LaRue makes .260 Rem barrels...

Research info from Todd Hodnett on the .260 Rem. He's probably the biggest proponent of it right now, as of what it can do long-range. Amazing distance shooter.

^^^ Yep. The 2017 magazine is out now. Hornady 9th Edition:

First release is late Feb 2017...

Paperclip works.

This time, it's 6~24x50 scope, with the popular reticle of the ACSS HUD. Done deal for me, for the 300 Win Mag. http://www.primaryarms.com/primary-arms-6-24x50-front-focal-plane-scope-patented-acss-hud-308-reticle-pa6-24x50ffp-acss-hud-308 Will arrive somewhere in Feb 2017.

You've been quoting that alot lately... do you know the origins of that, here, or are you just saying it because others have stated it - without knowing the origins?

And spotting scopes go up to 60x. They are tripod-mandatory. Old .mil days was the Steiner 10x binos, and those things are badass. The "real" ones had a mil-graduation reticle, and are pricey.

This is gonna be a badass rifle.

Yep.

Our local Floridian queues in on the alligator skin immediately...

I found it "odd" that "Loki Weapons" is looking for public opinions on how to make a lightweight .308AR... Maybe its just me...

HELL YES!!! I'm a fan of that choice!!! Personally, I have a Stack of Kimbers...

I think for the "flattest shooting" caliber... the .260 Rem will shoot "flatter" to 1k yards over the .338 LM. Anyone find anything that's different from that thought? .260 Rem slightly outperforms 6.5 Creedmoor. Proven. 6.5C guys don't like to admit that, and they'll fight you over it. But, they're not correct.

This. Based on the screen name.
