    yep new barrel and its got a schmiesser trigger in it its very nice its a cmmg or ccmg barrel not having the brass problems or jam ups any more either so more playing with handloads I guess I'm seating out as far as the mag will let me as well got an adjustable gas block coming to try and control it a bit better the action working is more noticeable to me than the recoil so a block should help tame it I hope and a 5x scope is on it

    I've got a CMMG barrel that shoots nicely. Try the 55gr Nosler soft points gunworks sells. I have found they are easy to get shooting out of most AR's

    I've only ever had one barrel that has shot 55gr Hornady's well. I don't know if it is because the ogive angle is too aggressive or what. Found the Nosler soft points to have more consistent weights too. I seriously recommend them, great hunting bullet, dynamite on goats.
