The Rokslide 95 (Ruger American 😁)

[goalie]

I have had good luck loading the Hornady 75's in my ULUL fitting in Pmags, the Duramags will let me go a little longer.

 

[BLJ]

Do you have HPBT or ELDM’s in the 75’s?

 

[Steve300xcw]

Gotta be bthp's

 

[goalie]

Yes, the BTHP

If I could fit properly seated ELDM's into regular AR mags I'd be ecstatic.

 

[huntsman22]

you coulda fit 88's in, if ya went ARC......

I’ve shot the 73’s. They kill

The way this is going with 5.56, which I don't regret (too many bullets and brass), I'll probably go ARC in another one.

Maybe 6 ARC though. My 6 creed is a big, heavy pig, a nice, light, short 6arc would be more fun.

He could do 75 amax/elds if he went aics..

 

[goalie]

Y'all need to stop being a bad influence!!!

But, yeah, I'll probably call Ruger for the AICS bottom plastic just because.....

Not that I have any desire spending more money polishing a turd. But I'd be curious what they say/charge

 

[BLJ]

I think it’s around $35.

 

[Steve300xcw]

Kinda steep

goalie, if ya decide to go aics, I'll send ya the ruger bottom. It may not match the stock, colorwise

Thanks! I'll keep that in mind. I'm going to try the Duramags with 75's loaded a tad longer and see how she shoots before changing/buying anything else.

If the 77g OTM was any indication, it'll shoot 'em well.

I just ordered a 22 ARC and a 6 ARC in the Gen 2 Ranch with 16" barrels. Going to see if I can get something to shoot for my wife with a shorter barrel as she is 5'2" and a 22" barrel with a suppressor pulls on her and gets her spine out of wack. She was pretty sore after our last 3 mile hike and was not happy with how the gun wanted to spin on her shoulder. I'll hand load the shorties to bolt action pressure after break in and see where we can go with them.

Love following along with this thread. I’m an unapologetic Tikka fan, but one of these is on my Santa list. Helped my younger cousin set his up earlier this year in 6.5 creed and remembered quickly why I loved my gen 1 Predator model so much.

6 arc incoming for this guy, followed closely by a 308. Only decision point is 20 vs 22” barrel for the 6 arc, as the 308 will be a 20.

Carry On gents, enjoying living vicariously for the time being!

20 round group from my gen 2-5.56 ranch and aac with tmk’s. I didn’t measure it, but I would estimate it was about 1.75”. I should have slowed down my pace as the mirage got it a little hazy. The Indian is probably the reason it opened up. Don’t mind that round at the bottom. I was zeroing a different rifle at a different aiming spot.
