Tried hard for accuracy this PM with loaded enblocs. Got a few 2" grps, but often with one flyer, about 4" out at 11:00. I didn't see if it was the first or last rnd from the clip. Any suggestions? Does loading one ata time solve this? And sight picture: can't seem to be consistent with 6:00...

Grrr! Don't ya just hate it when ya spend all morning making perfectly straight rnds for your Garand. Does anybody else hand true their cartridges? Then, when you get to the range, ya realized you left all the ammo at home?!?!?!! This was the stuff I was trying to duplicate a 1" grp last week...

When I re-install the gas cylinder (slide it on by hand) the lock stops at about 12:00. (When I first took it off it this new rifle seemed tighter) Should I: A) tap the cylinder on with wood to tighten? B) tap the lock to tighten? C) back off the lock 180 deg and be done with it? I am...

Anybody else use this Accurate powder? They say it is similar to IMR4064. Natchez has it on sale again ($80/8 lbs). I have had good performance and accuracy with it in 308 bolt guns and M1A; just wondering if other powder is MUCH better? Anybody have a good reason not to use it? (Of course...

Does anybody have an accurate load for a 125 gr bullet in a Rem 700 LTR (308 cal)? These bullets do great in my re-bbled VSSF, but I can't get them to do better than 1.5 MOA from my stock LTR. Why might this be? Long throat? Got good brass and primers, xmr4064 powder. Concentricity is very...

Anybody used the 5 rnd magazine from Springfield? Is this flush with the bottom of the stock? I am looking at these to make the rifle fit the hand better while standing (as if I could hit anything without a rest and bag!) Are these available from anybody but SA? And wasn't it "Cole Industries"...
