Read the primers and cases. Safer than a formula.

The Perfect AR Barrel
And I sure if you're shooting the hell out of them they're a little easier to clean.

The Perfect AR Barrel
28" is too long IMHO I shoot a 24" which I feel is optimal. If you intend on building a precision rifle forget chrome lined. Inconsistent bore diameter does not aid accuracy and, you're not going in the jungle. In order of least to most accurate barrels go like this: Hammer forged, button rifled, cut rifled. Button rifled or cut rifled lapped barrels are the most accurate. Try X-Caliber Barrels through Barrelman.com They are good barrels in quality and bang for the buck. And we're talking Stainless Steel of course.

223 or 357 lever?
The BLR is not a varmint rifle. IMHO it just doesn't have it in the accuracy department.

Reloading .30-40 Krag
http://www.hodgdonreloading.com/ The data I posted was from a hard copy manual but the above link matches that data. I would feel comfortable using this data.

Mark - Unless you have a leaking tank.... Repair is now a viable option. I had a 50 lowboy recently in a condo that I put a thermostat/ heater repair kit in for $40

Reloading .30-40 Krag
Make sure you're distinguishing between IMR4895 and H4895. My manual, Hodgdon 2014, says for a 150gr Nos Part...IMR4895 36gr only one loading For H4895 38.5gr - 42gr. Hope this helps.

Off topic a little but, what is the weight of your recoil spring?

Range Footage
The problem doesn't seem to be the extractor but the ejector. The cartridge is always extracted from the chamber but is not kicked out from under the extractor claw. Here you go: http://www.gunpartscorp.com/Products/414470.htm

Build or Buy
No dead heat now. Just buy an STI Spartan in 45acp. It'll shoot better than you and rugged. NO MIM parts and tight. Excellent customer service. Parkerized like a real 45. And it won't break the bank.

Any Advice For First Hunt
Remember it's about the hunt not the kill. One shot one kill. The animal deserves that much. Safety as the others have said, If you're on ground, get your back up against a tree. Don't do anything that makes you look like a deer. NO, NO white handkerchiefs please. Wear blaze orange.

Does anybody want to build a 6mm AR?
I look forward to talking with you. I'm looking at 6mm AR. Based on 6.5 Grendel necked down to 6mm. Same shoulder, same body.

Precision rifle/ Target
Latch on to somebody that shoots precision. Learn to reload for accuracy. And shoot, shoot, shoot! This is where your time and money will be best spent. And don't be an equipment snob. You can get in for under a couple of grand . if you shop wisely.

Does anybody want to build a 6mm AR?
The got cha is barrel and chambering availabliity. I want my chamber to match my FL sizing die. Reading makes the dies. I may have to buy a reamer (maybe) if my barrel guy (X-Caliber through Barrelman) doesn't have or can't get a reamer that matches the dies. I'll be pulling the trigger and start assembling parts in about two weeks. I'm going billet upper and don't know (I doubt it) if I'm going side charger. If you have or like part sources please tell me. If you're interested PM me and I'll tell you what the budget is on the upper. I think you'll be surprised.

Does anybody want to build a 6mm AR?
I'm building another rifle and may need to buy a reamer. I've sourced all the parts and if we build more than one can save some cash. To be clear this is just an upper, This isn't a beginners project. Do your homework. This may be a real opportunity,
