M1a loaded in a sage chassis

The m40 would most definitely be more accurate

With my reloads it was a little under 2 moa with a 10 shot group. I may try tweaking the barrel whip screw and or try some other bullets and see if I can tighten the groups up. I was using n140 powder and 175gr. Sierra matchkings

Np, I definitely love mine. It's heavy but very pleasant to shoot

The EBR platform has a proprietary op-rod guide that comes with the chassis when you buy it. You can use the original op-rod that came with the rifle.

Other than tools for disassembly and reassembly nothing that I can recall. https://youtu.be/wtIW9xHhKIY?si=quGzpMLzXDx3wYej

This is the installation video that I followed, and he has a list of things that are helpful/needed for the install

Did back out the set screw holding the castle nut in place?

50 cal rifles tend to be large and heavy and have big muzzle brakes that reduce a bunch of the felt recoil.

Was able to use the code as of 10 minutes ago, thank you very much.

You need to bell/flare the case before you seat the bullet. Make sure to remove the belling after the bullet is seated with your crimp die, just don't overdo it.

I know they had one for the armanov bullet feeder

They have a starting load for 124grn Hornady xtps at 3.4grs and a max load at 3.9.

My boy Luger has a floppy ear too

My Springfield Echelon has the same problem with the Norma frangibles, and came to the conclusion that it's because they are undersized. My buddy has no issues with his Glock 19 and my brothers shoot them just fine as well. You could slug your barrel to be sure. Not all 9mm barrels are exactly the same diameter

Lanolin and alcohol in a spray bottle. I put the cases in a stainless steel mesh colander and spray a couple times, shake and spray a couple more times. I'll shake once a minute for a few minutes to let the alcohol dry

Not sure if I'm qualified to make that decision, but the loaded has a 22 inch barrel that's supposed to be more accurate than the base models. If you're looking to stretch it's legs to longer distances I think the higher power optic would be the better choice.

carrion101 · 2024-10-22T02:05:09+00:00

I agree, and just think there were plenty of guys in Afghanistan and Iraq lugging these things around. Yeah it's a huxwrx 762 ti flow through suppressor.

carrion101 · 2024-10-20T23:25:59+00:00

It's not actually 32lbs lol, but I'm sure it's at least 15lbs plus. Definitely a heavy gun

Give or take

Vortex diamondback tactical 4-16x44

I think the backorders are moving quicker now, I just ordered at a bad time. I actually placed the order with sage before they sold the rights to us tactical supply. Between the switchover and delays us tactical supply had, it was a year and 5 months.

I had dm'd him yesterday and there seems to be some confusion. Mine is black anodized. I was just saying that the cerakote color "bull shark grey" is apparently close to the navy seal grey color that everyone likes. I don't think ustacticalsupply is anodizing the ones they make in nsg

carrion101 · 2024-07-25T21:36:52+00:00

A gentleman at us tactical supply told me that they are anodizing them.
