Change out the Springfield Armory rail mount for a much better Sadlak mount. An all steel mount that in far better than most others. Then change your scope rings to a serial numbered matched pair of GA Precision scope rings. Available only on GS Precision's web site. Attatch the scope rings to the most forward and most rearward slots on the piccatinny rail for success. If you are using a standard walnut stock. Look to Bradly adjustable cheek rests. No drilling the stock. Uses Velcro straps for attaching to the stock. Adjustable for all sizes.

I hear good things about the sadlak. It was next on my list but I made a few changes and got this thing really dialed in

If you want to get the Bradley adjustable cheek rest. The Chocolate Raptor color matches the walnut stock the best. They have all kinds of colors and camouflage styles. Adjustable for all cheek heights suitable for everyone.

Your helper is awesome! Interference with the tripod and squeezing the stock will cause a wandering zero .

@Threat.level.midnite 5 месяцев назад

I thought it might but the groups held quite tight. I’m not sure I could have done any better with irons

Gunblue is great he knows his stuff! You need to check out delta 14 chassis stocks

@Threat.level.midnite 11 дней назад

Just checked it out! It looks pretty awesome and if I make anymore changes I’ll probably get that for sure!

Best thing about the lighter 147-155s is they wont bend your oprod.

@Threat.level.midnite 7 месяцев назад

Jeez I did t know the heavy loads were capable of that

@Jeffersonian1975 3 месяца назад

The M-14 was developed to use 175 grain bullets. I use 175 mk bullets, or m118 lr military ammo. It wont bend the op rod, your good

@zacbarnholdt5984 6 месяцев назад

sage chassis where very temperamental even for the army. they have to be torqued just right or the groups fall apart. they are all that way. the snipers were having problems with them thats one of the reasons the army got rid of them..they look cool though.. yours is the best setup.. try those groups again with a scope. you will get better results.

Glad to hear it wasn’t just a me problem. Today I went out with some glass on the gun and it shot phenomenal groups and at distance it performed as good as I could want

Great video man! I have a Socom 16 and love it. Although not as accurate as my 2.5k AR10 it is Orders of magnitude more reliable. (I also haven’t done anything to improve accuracy like you have)

@Threat.level.midnite 5 месяцев назад

Thanks I’m glad you liked it! And I think with just a little bit of tuning they can all shoot super tight (at least that was my case)

@bubbacop Месяц назад

Thumps UP on the video, can you share your 147gr data? Thanks

@Threat.level.midnite Месяц назад

Gimme a few and I’ll consult my data books when I get home!

@Threat.level.midnite Месяц назад

Ok the 147 load is 43 grains IMR 4064 with a 2.76 OAL. I’ve also used 42.5 grains of varget and they both produce mid 2600 velocities

@bubbacop Месяц назад

Thanks! I bought 500 pulled 147gr and can’t find any data in the manuals, I’ll be shooting out of my early M1A super match that I too recently scoped with a Vortex low cost scope and a Basset machine low mount.

@Threat.level.midnite Месяц назад

Nice! I actually just bought another box of 500 pull downs as well since I started shooting it in matches lately

@jonnyutah.308 4 месяца назад

WTF happened at 10:38 minutes in??? It looked like a live round bounced up out of the mag/action following a spent casing and then just fell back into place…? The bolt stayed open too. That was weird to see

@Threat.level.midnite 4 месяца назад

You sir are a keen observer because that’s exactly what happened hahaha. I have some old GI mags where the last round slips past the feed lips but not with enough force to eject…it also does it fast enough to lock the bolt when it happens

@jonnyutah.308 4 месяца назад

@@Threat.level.midnite Crazy. I had to watch it a few times to figure it out but it stood out as soon as I saw it the first time. Never seen that happen. My scout squad is one of my favorite rifles to shoot and in general. Great video🤙🏻

@Threat.level.midnite 4 месяца назад

Yeah it really is bizarre haha thanks for watching!
