Here's a very informal group with my RARR BLK...picked up a Lee

collet die for the 7.62x39...this is the first test group from it..

yes...collet body is too long..but soon as my lathe guy gets home..

gonna shorten it to better size the 7.62x35 (BLK)..load was AA1680 &

Horny 110 V max...Rem 7.5 & LC case...dime is for reference only

target @ 100 yds...off table & rest....cold/clean 1st shot

Yes the Ruger magazine leaves alot to be desired...but works OK...

Just another RARR 300 BLK update....

Lee collet die from 7.62x39 will work....collet finger needs

shortened about ten thousands of an inch....

Pit rail vs Weaver style rail..Ruger has Weaver style rail..

Pit rail rings will not fit RARR rifle...must be Weaver style

Trigger spring clipped....pull is safely now down to 38 oz..

This is just FYI.........

I have the 6970 model. Haven't had much time to play with it yet and have only shot factory ammo so far, but I like the gun. Wish it was lighter, but you can't beat the handiness of it.

I'm curious about the Glade bolt and the flash hider. The bolt looks big in the pic, but I'm thinking that it's just the angle the pic was taken from. Also, what flash hider did you use?

My AR shoots Rem factory scary good! 115 gr OTM's I think I will look when I get home. It is not cycling the action properly, it's a parts gun, I need to make sure I'm completely sealing the gas port then drill the hole if necessary but I hate to dink with it the way it shoots!

yes the Glade handle is big..2" long with knurled rubber handle

but the factory one is too small....here's the links to flash hider

you'll also need a crush washer to index/time the hider

yes mine is the #6968 with longer LOP......

Glade does make one 1.75"..same price $55

Why not just buy the 300 black out Collet dies set and the Factory crimp die ?

yept...the 110 Noslers are pretty consistant....even 2nds...

110 V max is almost as good...just have more Noslers...

this target is @ 75 yds...then use the Vortex BDC reticle to go

out to 150 or so...I'm sold on the RARR...handy & accurate truck gun...
