When you put a live round in, there is no wiggle. Or if there is, it's barely noticeable. I noticed the wiggle when I first got my rifle, so instead of making videos or using snap caps or dummy rounds I went to the range and tried it with live ammo. :)

250 or so rounds later the rifle is still in one piece.

I just asked a question , If it's stupid for you , buy a mirror. :)

For the record I only made the video to reassure guys that its normal, as soon as my ammo arrives I'm heading out to the range :)

Thanks to Understand, I appreciate you share.
 
What about the rubber piece people put in their ar15s. Would that stop the wiggle.im not worried about it but it was just a thought. Can someone tell me how accurate these rifles are? Minute of man? Minute of yote?

An "Accuwedge" that is used in many ARs may help to limit the wiggle between loosely machined uppers and lowers but will do nothing to stop the bolt "wiggle" in these uppers.

As for accuracy, until some actually get out shooting and then daring to post groups, who knows. In theory these should be reasonably accurate. .5MOA however is doubtful in my opinion. Only time will tell.
 
Only shot 2 actual groups with mine, one at 200 and one at 475. Both three shot groups were slightly under MOA. I suspect ammo quality would be the most important factor aside from Shooter ability

Concur - my experience last summer was 1 MOA or slightly better with careful handloads and 647gr surplus projectiles. AMAX projectiles perform even better but are $3-$4 each...so I save these for special occasions!
 
My 50MOA rail & 30mm extra-high rings arrived from ATRS.

Should be able to go long with the 50 moa rail and a scope with come up but how about your sight in close at say 100 ? Will it be doable ? I was thinking about a 20 moa . Any thoughts or advice , anyone , Jay ?

To shoot 1 mile, you need about 70-80MOA of total adjustment.

I am using a NightForce NXS 5.5-22x56 scope with 100MOA of vertical adjustment. 50 up & 50 down...

So, I went with a 50MOA replacement rail from ATRS because the 50MOA rail PLUS the 50 MOA vertical adjustment in my scope, gives me the required 1 mile MOA adjustment.

I 'should' be able to zero at 100, but if it's a tad off... It will just be a 200 zero...

Cheers
Jay
