I have couple pounds of AR in the mail. Waiting for it to get here. I am going to run it in my .308 and see what it does. Hopefully it will work as well or better than the RL15 I currently use.Guess not Tank. Curious myself. I've got a jug of it I'm going to test run in my 6.5 lapua. Should get my hands on the new lapua this month. You thinking of giving it a try in your 308?
Well to put it conservatively.... THAT DON'T SUCK!Well here are the results. Granted I found a load .4 grains over the suggested max, and I didn't get the velocity I was hoping for.... I'm not going to complain.
Load: 42.8grn AR Comp, ES 4.5, SD 2.8, Avg. 2790
Off of a bench w/ bipod and rear bag. CTC .116" in a three shot group. I feel that should I have had 5 shot it probably would still be under .25" (assuming I didn't throw one).
Yes it did. The great thing is that I can do that with a couple different bullets if the screw stays tight behind the recoil pad. That is the second .1 group that I have shot.Great shooting!!! That Savage you built really came together! gun)
I've been using AR Comp in my AR. I've found that it shoots better than most anything else I've tried before. I've also found that it shoots well in all the AR carbines I've tried it in, except one and an RRA Varmint AR. I'm averaging 1/2 to 3/4 moa in all except the one with at least a couple of bullets. None have been over 1.5 moa. Bullets have been the 77g and 52g SMK, Hornady 75g Amax and HPBT 53g Amax and 52Vmax.
