Picked up a T3 lite 223 a while back. While I like the gun, I have other 223's that I like better. So let the fun begin.
I prefer barrels to be around 18". I have cut a couple other barrels down with good results so I wacked this one down too. Cut it at a bit of an angle, mainly because if it shoots good. It will break my brothers mind LOL Cut the crown with a die grinder
223 on a long action and still limited by the mags LOL screw that. Went AICS
AICS mags are short too WTF? Opened up the mags as well. Can jam a 75eld into the lands with room to spare now. Had to shave a touch off the front of the mags to get them to feed right
The prick that designed this bottom metal, had no intention of people running 5 round mags. The mag release sucks, its just a spike. So thats next on the list to get hacked on. Looks like there is plenty of material to work with. If not, I have a spool gun
I tossed 26gr of lever into some very mixed and very used up brass. 75gr eld seconds. Its running around 1-1/4" groups right now. With the amount that I cut out of the stock, I wanna bed it. Also some decent brass couldnt hurt lol. Over all, its turning out to be a decent lil truck gun. Might shave a touch off the talleys, scope is a tad high for me.
Anybody ever mess with the ejector spring? This thing throws brass pretty hard, if I get the scope dropped down to where I want it. I have a hunch i'm goona be pinging brass off the turret.
