Mine is from J&T Distributing. I'll call them but I'd be surprised if they offer the service.

Listing people doing the conversions sounds like a great use for this thread!

Anyone offering a 300-221 to AAC Blackout conversion service?

Just wondering if anyone out there with the skills to do it is planning on offering a conversion service once the PTG conversion reamer is available?

I'd buy the tool and have a local gunsmith do...

That is a 5 foot holdover on a 250 yard shot if you were zeroed at 100 yards.

Did you just guess at it and get lucky or had you figured out some of it in advance?

Congrats on the venison!

Wow, great accuracy improvement!

I just tried something that worked out pretty well.

This is on a J&T 300-321 16" upper. I was getting about 2" groups or so out of it at 100 yards with subsonics (Hornady 208 AMaxes and SMK 220s)....

I haven't done any business with AR15barrels.com, but I've heard (from several people) the same thing Interceptor said above.

This is a little off-topic, but I bet someone in here will have a quick answer (or provides the service).

I need a 10/22 barrel threaded 1/2-28 for an Outback II suppressor. The local shop has...

Let me know on the pre-cutoff stuff. I'd definitely be interested as cutting them down is the worst part for me.

How was your accuracy? I've got a subsonic load for 168 grain match king type bullets and they're keyholing a little at 100 yards. They're grouping about 2.5".

They also have 175 grain match bullets for the same price. They look like SMKs except they have an exposed lead base. I would...

Same story here... never split a case.

But I do prefer using .223 because it is less expensive and I get much more concentric necks.

First make sure your gas port is opened up to 0.125. Mark the exact location of the gas block and then take it off (the gas tube should be pinned to it and comes off with it). If you've shot it much...

I think I'm going to give this is a try. The only thing that worries me is that some people seem to think it dramatically shortens the throat life. Anyone think that's true?
