Hey guys, there's been a lot of talk about the AR10's lately. This talk peaked my interests in them a bit, so I looked for the best deal. Finally after about a two month search, a local guy posted one on gunbroker. It was very reasonable in price for what it was, so I jumped on the deal. I'd been doing research on what platform to get and while I decided I didn't want some things (tacky in my mind) stamped on the receiver, such as a big "A", "M&P", ETC. ETC... I also knew I needed a shell deflector and probably a dust cover, so no "smooth sided" receivers. This Armalite AR10T fit the bill nicely. However, I can't use P-mags in it. That doesn't really bother me too much. Here's some of the parts I put into it to make it mine (so to speak):
1. PRS stock
2. Griffin Armament SNACH ambi charging handle
3. BAD lever
4. Armaspec ambi safety
5. Armaspec enhanced trigger guard
6. Armaspec enhanced magazine release
7. Burris P.E.P.R scope mount
8. Burris AR7.62 4.5-14x42 scope
9. Fine tuned RRA 2 stage varmint match trigger. Damn near as good as my Geiselle SSA-E..
Here's some pictures of the new (to me) AR10, she seems to be a good shooter. Still working on load development:
Here are a few different loads that I tried. You can see where the accuracy node is:
I also tried different brass. Heard this Sig Sauer brass was good, so I gave it a try too:
Again, you can see where the node is.
I ended up shooting some 10 shot groups, that day, with what ammo I had left from load testing. I wish I would have had 10 of each charge wt. for each group, but still it didn't fare too bad considering:
Thanks for looking and please share your AR10 builds. These things can be addictive!!!!!
