[QUOTE="katakenm, post: 2311907, member: 102765"] Thanks for the advice. I have been told that a few times. I have a rifle length gas system. I have the gas block tuned for two clicks above when the bcg just about starts to not eject properly. It is about 70% open. I went with the 24" barrel for as much velocity as I could get instead of having to use a max load of powder to achieve the highest velocity. When I go hotter with more powder I fall off my accuracy node. I don't mind the 24" barrel because the AR10 is a bench gun and also a prone gun for long distance shooting. I I love the Valdada Anvil bipod, it shrunk my groups about a 1/4" to where they are now. Don't get me wrong... I don't shoot 1/2" groups all day or every day. But I can under perfect weather conditions get them extremely tight. Someone told me that I couldn't get 1" groups out of an AR10 so I set out to prove them wrong. My girlfriend shoots the rig more than I do and she has better results more often than me. I now am focused on the RPR in 338LM. I am a 100% service connected disabled veteran, I have had seven back surgeries, so I don't "run and gun" anymore. I'm lucky if I can walk to the bench. [/QUOTE]
