With different bullets having different profiles, I have found that some seating depths are reliable and some won't work out of anything. The seating depth of my 220 Grain load is 2.09", while my...

I think I might also add an "L" and "R" to the windage knob since the scope doesn't have an arrow visible from the cheekweld. I will post the results when I get it done.

Snipecatcher,that really sucks that you are still having stability issues, but maybe 175, 180, 190 or 200 gr. might work if you are just barely stabilizing the 220+ grain bullets. It should have the...

You would need the form 1 approved before starting a project like this and if I am not mistaken. Also you can only manufacture one tube for the serial number registered.

I have used the 17.7 grain load and the velocity was closer to 2250 FPS in my 10.5" AR barrel.

All the Sierra loads are much faster in my barrel than in theirs. YMMV.

It may be that the powder is positioned differently in the case from the recoil of the first shot.

I would still lower the load slightly so you are not affected by temperature & conditions.
