survivalshop Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 I like the Steel clamp on's myself , but have Aluminum ones that seem to work fine also . That JP adj. with the four screws looks massive , not a bad thing in some ways .I use so many different ones , its hard to say which I like the best , but one made of steel would be my first choice . I really don't care for Adj. ones ,but I can see a use for them in some circumstances . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mineralman55 Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Syrac adjustable. It's great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeithB Posted January 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 alum probably ok, but i bought a $10 one , it leaks really bad where it mates to the barrel causing short cycling. I have double checked everything else has to me my problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EngrBob Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 I have the JP Adjustable .750 on my .308 build (Faxon 18" Mid Length) and it has worked perfectly. I can recommend it as being an excellent product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The JP is made of Aluminum , but not for $ 10.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeithB Posted January 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 anyone used a SLR rifleworks adjustable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocop1051 Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 With an .875" barrel, I was limited in my options. I have a DPMS steel set screw version. If the rest of your rifle is squared away, there won't be any difference between a $35 steel LP/GB and a $100 Adj GB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeithB Posted January 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 I think i am going with the SLR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrtMA Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) I had a PWS and went with a JP adjustable. I was still playing around with it (fine tuning) when it got pretty damn cold where I am. I've been thoroughly impressed at the fit, finish, and how they have engineered the adjustable component(s). I had a few light strikes that I was experiencing and am still trying to figure if it was the ammo or the block needing further adjustment. I think it was the ammo due to the inconsistencies.
