Awright chirrens,
The 223 v. 308 debate always ends up like this. With the new bullets/barrels and overall AR technology, no contest as to repeatable overall accuracy and competitive edge to the AR in 223. If the 308 M1A was better, the Army Marksmanship Unit, Marines, and every other sucker on...
Peterf225: Value depends a lot on arsenal vs. aftermarket 308 conversion. Some early arsenal Navy conversions have a bushing in a 3006 barrel, later arsenal versions were specifically reamed for 308 and usually bear the 7.62 NATO markings visible on the barrel when the oprod is pulled to the...
Nice rifle Matrix!! Most of the last batch of service grades have been high percentage of correct/as issued and not mixmasters. Looks like you got a winner.
Been off the site for a while, but I was at the match to which Dan posted concerning this young man. The POINT is that this is a TWELVE year old shooting a GARAND. We need more kids like him on the line that ain't scared to toe up and slap rounds with the old war club like his great grandpa and...
I was fortunate enough to win a Giraud case trimmer at the Palo Alto regional this weekend and must say that it is the best thing since sliced bread. Well engineered and thought out, and makes quick work of a pile of brass. This is perfect for those of us who reload a lot of rounds for 3 gun...
Owen: Team match was a great success. The Army Marksmanship Teams won as expected, but Palo Alto range was able to provide them with quite the wind challenge. I know that on my string I went down with 4 minutes of wind and had to contend with a continuous let off/ come up the whole 20 rds...

The caliber itself is not "bad". It is an inexpensive and very accurate round when loaded and applied correctly for the application. Because it is our adopted NATO round, there are ample components available, and it's military application and experimentation...
I am the king of the crossfire. Mr. jdhunt3 can't just come in here and steal my thunder.
I'll stick to the normal plan of cross firing standing, shooting a minute group low in the 8 ring sitting, getting madder 'n' hell, cleaning 300, and shooting in the 190s at 600 for a 458. I will then...
Any Given Sunday.....
I'll let dzelenka's post serve as the bulk of the correctly applied reply to your uninformed diatribe, but I will add some additional facts based on my "Master" class experiences over the years. Most recently, I'll point out that the last spring EIC match at Palo Alto...
Ahemm....I believe that 86th is my true ranking!!! Now we just have to all work on getting on the "other" list, highly populated by folks from Columbus, GA.

My read so far is that might not be confirmed to be across the board, but we should be vigilant.
