NF1E Posted May 27, 2023 Report Share Posted May 27, 2023 Home built Bula Defense Systems M4 10-X target rifle. Work in progress. Got a new Bula standard receiver in that just had to be turned into a target rifle. Barrel is a Bula heavy 1/10 22" .308. Most parts are Bula. Headspace is set at 1.632 using a PT&G M118 carbide finish reamer. Trigger group is usgi SA with no modifications or tuning. Scope is a Hi-Lux Dominator XR 6-30x56-R mounted on a Bassett low picatinny rail with ARMS 22 quick disconnect rings. Cheek riser is one of my TAC-PRO kydex velcro attach units. Action is bedded in an extra heavy NM walnut stock. Targets were shot off a front rest with rear bunny bag at 100 yds using 155 gn Berger hybrid target bullets , 43.5 gn of Varget in MEN berdan cases set off with Tula berdan primers. Load development, underway, indicates that an increase in powder weight should be helpful in achieving the 10-X goal which is well within the capabilities of this rifle. Just had to show the bolt guys that our M14s can do a relatively decent job at bullseye shooting. Whatta Hobby! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisco Posted May 27, 2023 Report Share Posted May 27, 2023 Have a Bassett Machine Shop scope mount on my Loaded M1A. Like it a lot. Is that SA trigger group the National Match one? That is my favorite trigger of all time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NF1E Posted May 27, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2023 Nope, just the standard issue M14 USGI SA trigger group from one of the CMP kits years ago. Will eventually be getting a Bula trigger group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
