dissy ran like a Rolex...irons are all sighted using RIBZ. SPR ran like a Rolex. zeroed KAC irons at 25 and shot acceptable scoped groups at 100. 14.5 ran like a Rolex. zeroed irons and eotech at 50. miss piggy ran as well as could be expected with questionable ammo. giant crappy groups. primers all over the place.

hardware functioned great.

software needs some work.

the FNS feels great, but my P99 has ruined me for all other pistols.

successful day overall.

Shibi, you're bringing my built lowers out tomorrow, right?  <dontknow>  (Geissele S3G trigs, Armalite LPK parts, etc. - it's on my order form...)

 

I let Mike down last Thursday - last day of the month, last day of the (fukk work) pay period - I got called in.  Finish this, finish that, etc. 

 

I'm firing some $hit up tomorrow, and shooting new steel.  I hope Mike makes it, but if he doesn't...  I'm shooting some new steel!... <lmao>

FINALLY got out there with Mike.  Damn good range morning.  The steel target is pretty damn cool, but found out that 168gr .308 shots on it at 100 yards will knock the thing over - it really gets that 10" gong swinging, and when it swung forward it pulled the target on it's face.  Stacked some rocks on the legs, and that solved it. 

 

Got the scope on the MVP dialed in for 50/200, and it's AWESOME at 100 right now.  Got the scope on my BLK dialed in.  Need to look at the buffer weight on my BLK, because it's not locking back in a single round, and it's not picking up the next round.  Pretty expensive single-shot rifle, right now.

Glad you guys made it out. Sucks you're going to have to tinker with the blk. We all know how much you HATE tinkering.

I need to get that thing out of the bag and get to it.  I brought everything inside hours ago, and haven't touched any of it yet...

 

We zero'd the hell out of Mike's .308.  He was firing at steel, and I was calling impacts through the spotting scope.  We got him right on the money - after he knocked the steel over, and we set it back up with rocks...  <lmao>

Had a good relaxing outing today with Tom. Got the JG#24 308 scope sighted in, was 8" high and 7"to the left with a cheap Simmons scope I picked up for less than a $100.

The 24" 6.8spc now cycles now after redrilling the gas port hole for the third time. Still need to get an H2 buffer for it.

Broke the new upper on Vera, the gas tube broke at the gas block pin hole. Easy fix but it took awhile to find the problem.

Also broke a prototype charging handle for the ar308, Beta testing is so fun ! Redesigned already started.

Awesome, went out saturday with a buddy of mine. Got a syrac adjustable GB the other day, used for $60 shipped. Made a huge difference in handling of my 308ar once adjusted down. Got it ejecting at 4:00 and spitting em out about three foot.

This was the steel breakin process, right here.  Probably 50 rounds of 55gr M193 on it, about 30 rounds of 308 Win on it, then 60 rounds of 150gr 300BLK on it.  The steel is in great shape.  Need to paint it up and head back out there!

You are shooting in AZ and no phone, Dude, WTF!!!!

Call me, JackASS!  

 

Talking back and forth with MikeDaddy right now - I think I can lure him here on Sunday to shoot.

 

Any other AZ guys wanna get in on this?  Jon?  Shibi?  blue?

 

Jon and blue have a further commute to make, but could carpool - Shib, you'd have a drive south to make. 

 

LARRY!  You'd have to leave NM at 3pm tomorrow, get here at night - but I have a bed for you!  <lmao>

 

I'll cook afterwards...  <thumbsup>

 

 

Bring it.  :banana:
