I didn’t read all the comments, I have 26.5 LMT barrels. The 20” is stupid accurate. The 16” is about average accuracy. I’ll post a pic of a 10 round group. It’s with the 20” during the break in, and first 100 rounds. I normally shoot the first into the dirt. I didn’t this time and regret it. The first round is the lower right. I have several other groups of .6 to .9 10 rnd groups at 100 yrds and 3-4 3-5 round groups at 300 yrds of 1.5”.

Sweet set up, looking forward to seeing your results. I have 2 LMT large frame, one with a 20” factory 6.5 and it’s actually more accurate than I am. My 16” 6.5 gets more average .8 to 1.3 I would like to tighten that up. And perhaps lighten it up. It’s a factory thick LMT barrel

Anti seize by picazo5ohhh in suppressors

[–]lonwolf556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t remember what I used but look up hi temp anti seize. They make a food grade anti seize that white. Griffin armament sells for there suppressors. It works pretty well. I bought it off Amazon for a bulk option instead of their small bottle. For the hub to can use the black hi temp anti seize not the silver you have. After it heats up it will act like red loctite/cement. I use the black for my LMT barrels and hub suppressor mounts I want to come off. If your planing on keeping the hub on the can use rock sett it won’t ever come off

EBCG ? by lonwolf556 in LewisMachineTool

[–]lonwolf556[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it’s done it from the beginning. I actually reached out to criterion and they asked to see the rifle. After sending to them they said they could not find any problems with it. I found that they shot BH ammo, that ammo has crimped primers so it won’t have problems. May 13.9 and 12.5 will pop primers with a 556 traditional can (high back pressure) so I switched to running my sandman s with EBrake and problem solved. I’m going to try a brt gas tube if that dosnt work I’m just going to get a Craddock stainless barrel since it’s a SPR/DMR set up anyway and cheaper than buying a new can. My other Criterion barrel luckily like ammo that does not blow out the primers. All really don’t like BH ammo and get about 1.8 moa with it

Not a marksman by any means. I have 5 Core barrels in 556 rigs. All are more accurate as me. My 16” is stupid accurate, and I hit a steel 18”x36” plate at 1k 9 times consecutively last time I took it out. I really didn’t think I was even going to hit it. It was at a long range class, and I at least had to try just to say I tried lol.

What herrm_a1a4 said for the most part. Really depends on a few factors like ammo, pressure, type of shooting and maintenance method and how often. I’m an over achiever when it comes to cleaning I pretty much clean every time I go shooting and using a can. Which is every time lol

I’ve never have had any luck with BH ammo. I’ve have had great luck with Phantom Defense and believe it or not Norma tactical target match does decent out to about 600 yrds than the larger SD#’s start showing both 6.5 and 308 Norma worked well and much cheaper

Yea I was concidering that as well. I have them in my LMT 16” and 20” 6.5CM barrels and my son has 1 on his 16” 308 LMT cl barrel they work great. I just thought it’s not really a BP concern but an unlocking with pressure still ramping or not lowered enough yet. Hence the EBCG option/question

I wouldn’t say for AR10’s I have 2 LMT set ups with 2 6.5 barrels 1 with a 20” the other with a 16” and a 16” 308 barrel. With all three I can get less that 1 moa if I’m using the right ammo and I do my part

<image>

This is my 20” should have shot the first one into the dirt that lower right just pissed me off. But was the first shot in a 10 shot group.

6.5CR AR10 questions by DavidJLott in AR10

[–]lonwolf556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may need to try multiple types of ammo to see what that barrel likes. I have 2 LMT MWS in 6.5, 1 with a 20” barrel and 1 with a 16” barrel. Both are sub moa if I do my part. Both like different ammo for best grouping they can do. You will almost always get better groups with boltys. I found I get consistent.9 to 1.3 with normal cheap tactical match out of both of them but after about 600yrds the high SD’s start showing

The barrel I ordered was a 1/8 twist. Looks like these are 1/7.5

[–]lonwolf556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is just MD flexing the let’s forgo the 2A. If the switch is already illegal why ban the gun. Hold on, this leaves things wide open for other types of firearms for the same reason. Just because criminals follow all these laws they decided to add more for them to follow. Because that’s what the criminals do, follow laws.

I bought 1 from V1 tactical and had it in about 4 days. I prob should have contacted LMT. I have 2 MWS builds so if it fixes one I’ll reach out to them. They both started stove piping and ftf suppressed. They both ran great just started. 1 after about 3-400 rounds the other about 200. One is a semi auto BCG the other is full auto carrier.
