[QUOTE="ridurall, post: 413068, member: 2693"] While I enjoyed shooting my M1A and owned it for 12 years, in the 2 months I've owned the AR-10T I've already run 10 times the ammo through it. I've had the trigger out 3 times tuning it up and finally got it the way I want it. Now I'm still trying to decide what powder and brass will be my standard load. So far I've found it odd that I seem to get the best accuracy from some old M-60 brass LC 74 that I had delinked several years ago. I think Varget or IMR 4895 is going to be the powder for the AR. One thing I like about Varget it shoot great in our Sharps 45/70 with 522 gr cast bullets too. I sold a Colt SP-1 AR-15 when I purchased the Bushmaster Varminter. I could never get the Colt to shoot much better then a 3 inch group at 100 yards and the Varminter will shoot .285" groups at 100 yards quite easily. The prairie dogs out here sure don't like it.
