shooterrex Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 The only scale I have is a powder scale. It is not really that bad. Best guess is pa10 and drum w/40 rnds is about 15 lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albroswift Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 5D Pro Jig should be showing up today, along with a pistol cal 80% lower. Have a $39.00 223 80% to practice on just showed up yesterday. Might not really be the least expensive route for a build but dang it I like making things!

Be here next week They have one HELL of an Easter Sale going on right now - I saw that in the email today, and hit the different percentages - all the barrels are in the 50% category. $140 for a .338 Fed Wilson Combat barrel is a damn STEAL! Make sure you buy an Armalite AR-10 Carbine gas tube, that is 12 1/16" long... You'll need it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtallen83 Posted April 20, 2019 Report Share Posted April 20, 2019 I'm torn up on this one. Just happen to have picked up a WC TRIM rail in 308 DPMS a few weeks back, just got an Armalite carbine gas tube, bought it for the "stash".........but only two main factory ammo choices, both Federal.....almost like my stars aligned though !?!?

jtallen83 Posted April 20, 2019 Report Share Posted April 20, 2019 I went and did it, 14.7 inch fluted .338 Federal, WC has been getting alot of my parts money lately but I really feel I'm getting my money's worth. Picked up one of those oddball Lancer magazines, 7.62x40, wondering if they won't work well for 300 BO subs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are two 14.7" on sale, one midlength gas (Armalite AR-10 Carbine gas) and the other one is that weird "intermediate gas that they just started doing, with the 13.25" gas tube... Weird one: https://shopwilsoncombat.com/Match-Grade-Barrel-338-Federal-Recon-Tactical-147-1-10-Twist-Stainless-Fluted/productinfo/TR-338RC14F-10/ "Normal" one: https://shopwilsoncombat.com/Match-Grade-Barrel-338-Federal-Recon-Tactical-147-1-10-Twist-Stainless-Fluted/productinfo/TR-338RCS14F-110/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course the weird one, the other was out of stock and I wanted to get as short and light as possible in the front end. They have the tubes about as cheap as any you see. Surprising how crazy WC's pricing is on some items while others are right in the bargain zone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The grendel will eventually happen. 😂👍 ill keep my eye out for the 4-14 primary scope and that will send me on a mission build! got to give a shout out to @98Z5V ! put a Armalite length buffer tube and an EA1095 spring on the AR-40 Carbine, if it works for the 308 why not the 40. 10oz buffer and a little spacer hot off the lathe, Full blow loads, 1500 fps no case bulge and SMOOOOOTH....

shooterrex Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 Magpul D50 ran just fine. Not hard to load. Didn't he the bolt back when empty. I will run some more ammo through it another time. 50 rounds seems to take forever to go though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
