[QUOTE="ak1251, post: 508210, member: 15939"] dzelenka, I got a bushmaster dcm(1 in 8") and have fired 200 rds of m855 62 grainers to get get the feel of the rifle. Found 68 gr HPBT's w/ 23 grains of Varget grouping very well but need more testing. Will be working up a load up for 77 and 80 grainers soon. My first match w/ this rifle is on the 05-22 so I better get to work. This is the first match AR(wieghted) I've fired and I can say I do prefer it to a standard AR. At lest it doesn't remind me of a BB gun w/ the added wieght! Bart, the M1a was new in the box and your right there was something wrong with it. It's someone elses problem now!!! Kevin, sorry about the TREKKY..... You are right about the cost of reloading and being able to do the work on the weapon inhouse. I've built two F-class rifles in 6.5x284. My oldest came so very very close to setting the juniors 20 round 300yard record with 193 10x and a 193 11x with the one I build for him. It was his first match!!! Can you tell I'm proud of him. Oh ya... he bet me by 4 points to boot. [/QUOTE]
