    Looking to get my first AR - DPMS??

    My brother in-law (FFL) just called me, he just got off the phone with DPMS and all he had to say was "what a bunch of idiots" he said won't do business with them so he would keep looking for me.

    Looking to get my first AR - DPMS??

    Dpms discontinued the 6.5 Creed and the 260Rem. Talked to them yesterday 2/25/15 and they have no idea when they will make more. In fact the sales guy I talked to didn't seem to know much of anything. Called Tombstone Tactical in Arizona today and the sales guy there just laughed and said to...

    Barrel Lapping

    I tried Atwood Bore Scrubber which wasn't bad and then Hoppes 9 which was a little better, just had to let it sit for about 2hrs.

The 250 grn .45 cal shock wave was fine just could'nt get comfortable groups at 100. Now my question is, why can I shoot PRbullets in range from 185grn-260grn in .40cal and...
