Any feedback on steelcase ammo? I have some bulk Barnaul steelcase and nice Hornady steelmatch I’ve stocked up on for my ruger American predator in 223 that would be handy to share between systems.

I've been shooting MFS steel case and have had no problems of any kind.

Any chance we can see what 'the Dog' looks like after 10 000 + rounds?

Not much to show really, she is on her second upper as we made some slight modifications early on and then fitted her with a production hand guard when they became available. The decision has been made that the "Dog" is going to be reborn a Kiwi, she gets a brand new production upper, a muzzle brake and a thumb hole stock and then she travels to New Zealand for classification. I am rather sad to see her go.
 
Well I had mine out again this morning. I have a 6” gong at 200 yards, 8” at 300 and 10” inch at 400 yards. I have a Vortex viper 2.5-10x44 BDC reticle scope on it. Center cross hair is zeroed at 200 yards, 1st hash Mark is bang on at 300 and the 2nd is on at 400. Coyotes beware. I ran a 100 rounds of AE 55gr Fmj through it without a fart, or burp. The more I shoot it the more I like this thing. It has been 100% reliable and works way better than my last XCR L I had.
 
0_o blasphemy lol ... On another note more calibers needed Mr Wolverine.

Love to see a picture of the dog dressed up in thumbhole, Mr. W.!
 
Just got a Hyperfire EDT trigger installed but before that I had to check the factory trigger with a pull gauge, 10.5 lbs. With the new trigger- 4.5 lbs and crisp.

Checked a few others while I was at it

AR # 1 4.5 lbs
AR # 2 7 lbs
Ruger hawkeye 5 lbs
Keltec KSG 4.5 lbs
Savage 10 1.5 lbs!!
Old Herbert Schmidt SA .22 1 lb!!! It always was crazy light!
 
My LAR 10 round mags didn’t work well. Troy and Hera mags worked well.

Has anyone had success with other 10 round mags?
 
Took the gun to the range today. Fired 20-25 rounds... experienced 4 FTE’s where the fired round stayed in the chamber and new round was stripped off the mag, and picked up. Occurred with one of the supplied mags and one of my Norinco mags (only took two mags).

Any suggestions for me to look at here?

Please check your extractor and advise.
 
Removes the extractor spring and compared with a used brownells spring I had kicking around. The WK spring was noticeably shorter. .139 in vs .179. Will give it a shot tomorrow and report back.
