Oh wow, no brass deflecter? I thought the DPMS rifles had them. I'm going to be interested in a range report with on paper grouping results. What's the glass brand and power?

That's one of their Sportical uppers: no forward assist, brass deflector, or dust cover. The economy model if you will. I'm keeping an eye out for the new for 2011 Bushmaster(DPMS) MOE mid-length .308. It's what I'm wanting to get to replace my ptr91.

4x16x40 BSA I had it on the 22mag .I paid 89$ like 6 years ago at cableas its built very nice if it lasts the break in on the 308 it can stay .

Stock, but its smooth as snot by far one of the nicest stock triggers I have felt a little on the heavy side but almost no creep .

I have a few casings, but you will have to search through that pile yourself!

Is losing any of those items really that big of a deal? It looks a lot cleaner without them.

Yeah my cousin has ad one since 2006 and has had no issues with not having these and that rifle has seen a easy 5k + rounds he was poping primers out of 1x LC brass but he tops them off :\ a lower rug took care of that oh btw

Congrats on your new rifle, DPMS makes a kickass little 308 carbine for sure. My last range session with my AP4 308 at 100y I was getting 5 rounds within an inch using hornady 168gr BTHP. At 200y it opened up to 3.5 inches, it was windy as well. They really favor bullets over 165grs just a heads up. Also take a look at the enidine hydrolic buffer, works well and makes recoil more bearable. And lastly Magpuls 308 P mags are the shit compared to the DPMS factory mags. Both mags supplied with my rifle did have feeding problems, with the P mags none so far.

thanks for the info I have a Enidine in one of my Ar's it really does smooth it out. Cant wait to get it out for a range session .

Does yours have a threaded barrel? Im thinking building up the TAC 20" 308 after I get my current AR project done. Also does anyone have experience with Berger bullets? I see they make a 180gr, 190gr MBTHP these 1-10 twists on the DPMS rifles might like those. At least the longer barreled rifles should.

Have had this out a few times but IDK if its the scope or the mounts but I get it on then a round or two later its off .....but at lest its broken in ....:cat-n-mouse:http://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s298/abpt1/IMG_0978.jpg

Well if the scope doesn't wiggle when you try to move it, it is not the mounts. One of those lenses inside has probably broken free from the glue they use to hold them. Probably time for a new scope.
