geepee3 Posted December 31, 2014 Author Share Posted December 31, 2014 1680 can be a tad spiky. Go slow with it. Greg I might just hold off with that powder then. The three powders I have will do for now. I just need to wait till I get my barrel to see which powder/bullet combination it prefers. Thanks again, Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gshayd Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) I have been using the Magpul MOE rifle stocks. The length is slightly shorter than an A2 stock. They have a replacement pad that makes it slightly longer than an A2 if you want. I like that it has a wider purchase area on top than an A2 stock. Just another option. Thanks Greg for the update on the production ammunition. I have Accurate 2200, Hodgdon H4198 and H335 powders on hand to start off with once my barrel is ready. Was thinking about trying Thunderbird T680 powder. But have not contacted them to see if it is available. May wait to try Accurate 1680 when that surfaces again. Glenn yet another option thanks.............. The Anderson Lower is in hand need just th BHW Barrel FF Rail Stock with buffer tube, buffer and spring gas block and gas tube P.S. I found a .30 cal Dragons Head Comp I had purchased and forgot about ....even better and its on like Donkey Kong...... what length FF rail will I need for this if I use a gas block with a same height ?

I'm just putting together an American 30 upper for now. Waiting on the barrel and .30 cal Wilson Accu-Tac flash hider I recently ordered. Have all the reloading supplies lined up to start forming brass and working up loads. 2015 is going to be interesting to say the least. Happy New Year!

gshayd Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) dayum that is about three weeks away! awesome....... I have ordered the MagPul stock, buffer tube kit with springs n stuff. I will probably build the lower when that comes in. All I lack is the barrel and hand guard to finish this build. After I get my tax refund back the barrel is going on order!

geepee3 Posted January 7, 2015 Author Share Posted January 7, 2015 Gee Newbe, you posted in all three American 30 threads today. I'm getting the idea you may be interested in this cartridge. But back at the ranch. Just got home from work and checked my Email. Got a FedEx notification that Black Hole Weaponry is shipping something to me. I wonder what it could be? Estimated delivery next Tuesday the 13th. Made my day. Thanks BHW!!! Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, I've got complete 6.8 SPC II upper, and another 6.8 SPC II barrel sitting there waiting to be built. Sell one or the other?

Glenn At least my W-2 is in so I am going to start my taxes tonight. I may have a few but it comes at a terrible cost. I just totaled up my componets and parts expenditures from last year. The good news is it was down 60% on parts and 25% on the componets. Still enough to buy a small decent used car. The bad news is AR10's loom on the horizon as well as some morew bolt gun activity.. I could have gone all day and not have seen the W word. Now I'll think about it all day. I always say no W-2's mean more money in the bank for 90 days and then it goes away forever. I know the massive 1.7% SS and retirement increase got eaten up between my house payment increase (taxes) and my medicl insurance ( O-care is not good for us retirees with our own insurance) Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
