Ok, here's the complete list of what I have to assemble my LR308: DPMS lower DPMS upper with charging handle DPMS LPK w/two stage trigger DPMS BCG. RRA mil spec buffer tube DPMS buffer DPMS buffer spring Seekins precision adjustable gas block Rainier Arms match select barrel 18" Rainier arms gas tube Primary Weapons Systems Precision Rifle Compensator Daniel Defense 12.0 light rail. I'm still hung up on which stock to get. I'd really like a PRS but have mixed feelings about NJ issues related to the stock as out forward in another post.

The stack in safe is advertised as a fire safe but a review says it's not. Maybe the 599 costco it is.....and it's fire proof.

http://www.kmart.com/stack-on-22-gun-convertible-safe/p-089V004009520000P?prdNo=7&blockNo=7&blockType=G7 I ordered this one but there's a 16 gun version for 331. It's 59 bucks shipped for the smaller or in store pickup. That doesn't include the 25 bucks off. I'm at less than 500 delivered. The 599 Costco one with free delivery is only slightly larger.

If I had a permit I'd get the 50ae eagle. The berretta cx4 at 10% would be a nice buy. Perhaps the scar 17...... Wish I had a permit.

Preordered PS4 on amazon because my son wanted it. If it were up to me I may have done the xbox this time.

There isn't a lot of data out there for this caliber. It's a very picky cartridge with very little room for error. I thought I'd start sharing some of mine in hopes either helpful or someone else posts some of there's. Again load at your own risk. I don't chrony any of these loads yet. These are very light loads that I'll work up from. Mixed head stamp brass, hornady v-max 40 grain .224 and cci 400 SRP. Trimmed brass to 1.35, max length is 1.43 I believe and COL was 1.580". 4.3 grains of unique, which was probably a little off the bottom for this caliber but it has room for a bit more. A couple of tenths is a reasonably big move in this caliber. No signs of pressure in either my FiveSeven or my PS90. 4.3 grains of VV N340 which I'm going to move to 4.5. This one had a small touch of smoke compared to the unique. Cycled well and was very accurate. It would probably improve at 4.5 or 4.6. I tried to use W231 but the loads were incredibly light at 3.3 grains. The w231 is very fast burning so I started in a careful place. It cycled in my ps90, was reasonably accurate but sounded like an air gun It didn't cycle the FiveSeven pistol. I'm going to go to 3.5 and continue to try and work a 231 load because I have 8lbs of it. I have some loaded with AA#7 but haven't fired them yet. I'm trying to use the most common powders to load the caliber other than the vhita vhouri which I just happened to have I'm happy the unique loads were good and as mentioned will hopefully have a good w231. I have a few 55 grain loads I'm going to try because I have quite a large number of them. Good luck and be safe when loading.

How is the safe? How did you transport it?

Ottomanellis has them and sig makes a nj specific version eith preprinted stock and no muzzle device.

I have a ranch 14 with flash hider. As long as I don't put a pistol grip on it it's legal. Detachable box mag, flash hider. Done.

Bought a mini 14 there today. I've always wanted one and they took good care of me on price. Can't wait to shoot it.

I've always had good experiences with PV.

I just saw a vendor on AR15 who has Maten matched upper, charging handle, lower and monolithic rail for $837. edit: here is this add: http://www.tieronearms.com/MEGA-MKM-p/mkmambi2.htm

Rainier arms has Adams Arms piston conversion kits for 229.00 for black friday. I just picked up the Spikes upper from aim surplus and was thinking of adding the piston kit. I watched the install video and it seems really straightforward. Anyone try one of these before? 14.5" Piston rifle sounds cool, but may not improve function but it sounds cool.

I want to get a large gun safe but will never be able to get into my basement given the configuration of my house and the stairs. I'd like to put it in my garage which happens to be heated. It's not at the temps that my house is but it is much warmer than the outdoor temp in the winter. I can put moisture bags in although I don't get any (I'm thinking summer humidity). Any thoughts on issues with doing this? Will it cause issues with my firearms? thanks with the help as I'm trying to hit a sale at Dick's.

That's the RRA model. I'm doing DPMS style. The receiver says LR-308--you almost had me there!

I think RRA operator is for me.

I just think it would be perfect for my LR308. It's going to have an 18" barrel + muzzle brake (TBD), 12" rail and a substantial stock like the PRS would rock.

I know a lot of people bash this place but I've never had an issue. They're not the most overwhelmingly warm folks but I've always been treated politely and gotten good stuff there. I don't shoot there because I don't like the range much and I'm much closer to GFH and equidistant to RTSP.

I'd pay you to paint mine given how this one looks. I've just started my LR308 build and wanted to use the Maten upper/lower kit but the backorder was too long. I've a matched DMPS set with charging handle and BCG and a Rainier arms select barrel. Awesome looking rifle and I hope it shoots as well as it looks. I cannot even comment on Vlad's rifle the jealousy would show in every word!

I'm ultra sensitive to the stupidity of NJ semi auto rifle laws so thus the reason for my question. Is the magpul PRS legal in NJ? It has the adjustable rear plate so is that collapsible or does collapsible mean telescope in the tube only? I'm building an LR308 and that would be a perfect stock. If not I'll moe A2 fixed stock it. Thanks and happy thanksgiving.

I have a Giraud and it's the greats piece of reloading equipment I have. I have the WFT because a giraud doesn't have a case holder for 5.7x28. I haven't used it yet. Folks over at handloadersbench.com say its terrific.

I stopped by at Ottomanelli's to get a part for an LR308 that I am building when Mike, the owner, told me that Friday all accessories are 10% off and all firearms are 5% off. They are not extending the discount to ammo but it sounds like an opportunity to grab some nice stuff. Opening at 8 am rather than 10.

Yes and it was a partial fill. I had a bunch of primers on that I don't need anymore so I canceled those. I almost left it open figuring if it got filled someone on here would want them but who knows when that would get done. I'm excited about because of the amount of load data available and the positive reviews on this powder. It also cost me considerably less than the N140, which was very good, but no better than H335 that I normally used. I'm excited to cook up some new loads when it arrives.

I just got the shipping notice for my 8lbs of CFE223 and none to soon. I'm using VV zn140 and I only have 1.5 lbs left. I've been waiting for 8 months.

I have a 300 blackout. I posted so I could get opinions. Perhaps 18 is the way to go? Do you guys think a brake is necessary on 18"? If so I was thinking pws fsc30. I have it on my scar and like it. Rainier guarantees sub Moa on their barrel at 100 yards.
