Yeah those darn ARs will never benefit from bolt gun benchrest reloading techniques. Great shooting man.this is a.home built .223 wild. just never could get it where i wanted it to be. quit messing with ARs. too hard on brass and it is so much easier to get the accuracy out of a bolt gun

Do this, take one of your carefully sized and prepared cases, then load it however you like into your ar
Then extract it and measure the Runout. Yup, this afternoon the zero run-out loads turned into .001-002 runout loads after a single cycle. I didn't bother to check the practice rounds with greater runout. Still, the lower runout rounds printed beautiful waterlines at 200yds (it was a little breezy) and the higher runout rounds shot patterns 3/4moa plus.

I have a great performing bolt F/TR rig to satisfy the 1000yd stuff. This AR is a safe queen looking for a purpose(varmint, short-range F/TR?). I have the PMA neck turning tool to play with (new cutter angle pending) and AcraLaps for die honing. Plenty to think about and digest.
