AngelDeVille Posted March 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 On a whim I ran to Wally world this AM, and found 14 boxes of ZQI ammo so I picked it up to break her in. I put my stash of brass away so well I can't find it, and this stuff was cheap enough for reloadable brass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngelDeVille Posted March 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 I just got my BUIS and lancer mags in. I only opened one lancer l7 mag and it won't hold the bolt open.... Kinda pissed right now.I'm like'in that rifle brother,looks good. <thumbsup> It's actually not too terribly heavy, I'm pretty impressed, I hope to get it to the range tomorrow.

Rsquared Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 but I am getting my SBR stamp for my 607 build first Let's hear about it. Out with it man!. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelDeVille Posted March 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) Let's hear about it. Out with it man!. I have a grey matching Nodak Spud A1 603 upper mated to a partial fence xm16e1 lower, triangular handguard, aluminum CAR stock (until I can make a real 607) and a 3 prong flash hider, that will replace the pinned and welded xm177e2 flash hider once the stamp gets here. EDIT: I took the AR10 to the LGS to show it off, and ask about the bolt catch, and the gunsmiths asked me how many rounds were through it.....

Rsquared Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 Barrel length? She looks around the 10" range in the pic. But pics can be deceiving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelDeVille Posted March 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) Barrel length? She looks around the 10" range in the pic. But pics can be deceiving.She'll be 10.5 once she's done, someone makes a replica 607 "regulator" but I really prefer the 3 prong. This is the end goal.... .

AngelDeVille Posted March 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 So I have the wrong bolt catch, I need to modify an ar10b catch to make it function correctly, but I have an idea on how to make the 10a work, and it it fails I'm not out much since it doesn't work anyway. I was sub 1 1/2" with ZQI with my back up sights. I need to Lapp my rings to see what the scope will do. My 180gr projectiles will not work with this rifle, when I seat them at the cannelure I get 2.92". Time to buy a rifle that will.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 What 180s are they (manf, bullet profile)? You don't have to seat on the cannelure - you can set them deeper. Well, depending on powder charge, you can. Don't compress too much... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelDeVille Posted March 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 They are WW2 Bulgarian. Similar to a D-166. They were originally brass cased, 7.62x54r but I was getting so many case splits I decided they were only good for components. (Good powder too) They should have been .311 bullets, but I learned while loading my first batch they just dropped through the neck on my .303 Brit and 54r reloads. So I whipped out the calipers and lo and behold they were .308 diameter. They have a very long ogive, I forget the oal of the bullet. I have always wanted an excuse to buy a cannelure tool, this may be the excuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 They were originally brass cased, 7.62x54r but I was getting so many case splits... As soon as you said that, I was thinking .311... Weird that they were .308. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikedaddyH Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 Might what to double check that diameter with a micrometer ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelDeVille Posted March 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) As soon as you said that, I was thinking .311... Weird that they were .308. Might what to double check that diameter with a micrometer !They may have been intended for use in a maxim, I have checked and double checked, and even ran sone through a sizing die. Bullet oal is 1.263" Edit: I found some old stock of Nosler, and Hornady hunting 180's and they were 1.270" and 1.265". I think I can seat them deeper without too much trouble. I'm measuring a max oal of 2.82 with the Lancer mags. Edited March 15, 2015 by AngelDeVille Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelDeVille Posted March 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 The new bolt catch is in place and it functions perfectly! I had a chance to look at the Ruger 7.62, whatever the model number it is, today and I do have to say I like the quality of my build much better. And at half the price..
