The Rokslide 95 (Ruger American 😁)

Every time I tell myself "enough" y'all have to be bad influences and make me want to try something else on my Ranch.
 
I’ve been skimming through the thread trying to find something on this topic and not seeing it. I have a RA in 6 creed that shoots awesome for me. It’s AICS. My only complaint is that it doesn’t feed great. It’s ok most of the time but will jam probably 2 out of 10 rounds. I’ve tuned the mad ā€œlipsā€ to feed from the mag to the bore better. Anything else I can do?

I have the gen 2 in 6 creed. I only use the magpul mags, but I don’t have this problem. I also don’t push the bolt forward slowly. It’s not like glass like my tikkas, but that’s the missing 5%….
 
I used factory Ruger and Magpul AICS mags and ram the bolt hard and never had any jamming issues.

And I’ll agree with above. None of them have ever been Tikka smooth, but I’ve never had the problem you’re experiencing.
 
I'm gonna head out today and get the 3-9x HD zero'd in the sub zero weather. I'm gonna try babying the bolt to see if it hangs up.

I'm interested what the Garmin says about the AAC 77g OTM velocity at -5* compared to 75*

Didn't even feed rough below zero today.

I'm a huge fan now. I'm even liking the OEM Tupperware stock after hogging out the barrel channel a little.

It'll be interesting to see how she does with hand loads.

I shot my 5.56 ranch today. Shot a 10 shot group with BH 77tmks about an inch, maybe a touch under. Then a 10 shot group of the AAC 75gr sabres a touch over 1.25ā€. Either would be fine in the rifle for 300 yard hunting.

Took me three shots to zero then a 7- shot group (rest of the mag) and a ten shot group off the bench to confirm with 77g AAC OTM before shooting prone and sitting.

Both were around 1.5" but it was cold enough that there was suppressor mirage after two shots and I was using a bipod and no rear bag.
