Re: Magpul Hunter American stock for the RARR

I actually spoke with MDT about their chassis and why it wouldn’t work on Tuesday. I was informed that the mag catch is to short and not allowing it to sit high enough so that the bolt could grab the round and push it into the chamber. This could possibly be the same issue. I have considered trying ...

Re: Which RARR?

Well I shortened the feed lips up to about an 1/8” behind the case mouth and that helped tremendously. Although now the 2nd round in the mag will hang instead of the first. I took the mag apart and put two turns in and it fixed that problem but created another. Now the bolt grabs the 3rd round case ...

I was planning on taking a little under 1/4” at a time and trying it.

Re: Which RARR?

Well I went ahead and bought the RARR with the rotary mag today and loaded the mag full with factory Hornady black with 208 amax to see if it would jam the nose to the top of the chamber. Well the first 2 rounds jam up almost every time but the last 3 feed fine. It looks as though the feed lips on t...

Re: Which RARR?

Athough I would like to leave the next purchase alone other than changing the stock and trigger, I’ve been looking at different parts for the model 7 and rarr and it seems like the rarr is lacking in parts but I’ve read in a few places that the Ruger Precision is the same action so could we use part...

Re: Which RARR?

Whole Bunches- yes I would love to hear back from what you find out on that please. I don’t know the differences in the two models and I’m not sure if the magpul stock will fit the model that accepts AR mags so that’s my reason on going with the rotary. The local shops close to me have the rotary mo...

Re: Which RARR?

Thank you very much. I figured that was the case but couldn’t figure it out no matter where I looked. I guess I’ll just go with the model that uses rotary mags and switch to an aics pattern in the future

Which RARR?

I’ve been shooting the 300blk for a while now and have gotten down to sub moa consistent 5 shot groups with my AR and reloads, but now I’m looking to get into the bolt action realm. I’ve got a 308 m700 at my gunsmith being built with a bartlein barrel and thought about just building a 300blk but wan...

Re: Sizer die adjustment

I have had issues with a wmd nib bolt doing that with reloads and factory loaded ammo. Changed bcg and it fixed everything. On the sizing question I usually always size like every one else is telling you to but I'm going to try moving my shoulder height further up but then the press doesn't cam over...
