[QUOTE="woodnut, post: 1667594, member: 17593"] Frog4aday, I completely agree with you! However, b4 I invest in 50 rounds of Tubbs ( as that's what I think they say to shoot), I want to spent some time on the range with my chrono and see what it tells me. Both with factory and reloads. I have seated some reloads deeper to see what effect it has in both my bolt rifle and AR. Yes, I know, that isn't addressing the factory ammo issue. Also, not addressing the throat issue either. But if my reloads, with tweaking, makes my AR accurate and safe, I will be content. I would be more content if the 'smith would rechamber it with a better reamer so I could use factory ammo. But I will take one step at a time. This barrel has had a few hundred rounds in it b4 it was re-chambered, so life is shorter than a new barrel. I don't hold a lot of hope that "tweaking" the reloads will solve the throat problem; but maybe it will allow me to safely and accurately shoot my reloads. The bolt rifles shoot factory (and reloads) very well so all is not lost. Will post my results when done. lately, rain and heat has been keeping me off the range so it may be a while b4 I get to go.
