Anyone have a 223/5.56 bolt gun they want to part with, looking to either an Mossberg MVP or 22" or less barreled Rem700 or tikka. I would also entertain Rem 700 actions with 223 bolt faces or barreled actions in 223.
I have two 6.5X284’s, one custom and one savage. Both long actions, and wouldn’t have it any other way. Short actions do not allow for the cartridge to really shine due to bullet seating depth/mag box issues. I’m not really familiar with the weatherby’s but If you can open up the bolt face to a...
Anyone have a 223 wylde complete upper taking up space they would like to unload before I buy a new one? Looking for 16"-18" upper with or w/o BCG CH, functional is a must, cosmetics (scratches etc...) not super important. Thanks!
I called AREA419 and they sent a label out for me to send the barreled action to them so they can sort out the problem! Shipped it out yesterday and we'll have to see what they come up with.
Using my Sinclair shoulder bump insert on my comparator is how I arrived at these measurements. So they are all relative, but I think the go gauge is 1.80 for the .284 correct and no go should be 1.815?
I measured a piece of worked brass at the shoulder from before and got 1.790. I measured a piece from the other day after the m16 and got 1.810. .020 difference. I guessing there is where my problem could be
I was getting around 2900 with RL26. Gun is out of commission for a little bit for a bolt problem unrelated to the loads. I got an m16 extractor installed and getting crazy pressure with my old mild loads
I was doing RL26/156 Berger load work up the week before I sent it in, the weather turned cold and I was going to be busy at work for a month or so so I sent it in. I doubt its a cleaning issue. Maybe it is something simple, I am by far not a pro, but give me a little credit here. This gun is...
With having three firings on the brass at one dimension, then adding .004-.005 headspace could be causing some issues too I would imagine. I shouldn’t have severe primer flattening pressure with loads that prior to having the extractor put in were mild.
