I have been working on my 5-shot groups with various loads for a few months, trying to get better, they are somewhat inconsistent. I also ran my first PRS match over the last weekend (wow that was a learning experience!) with the Grendel and was talking to 6mm BR guys about accurate reloading and that got me going to the ogive/bullet jump path. Summary, I measured my Lilja AR24 drop-in barrel lands-ogive with the hornaday OAL tool arriving with the following averages (6-8 measurements)
123 amax - COAL = 2.34, base-ogive=1.75
107 SMK - COAL= 2.35, base-ogive= 1.75
Given all my loads are around the 2.25 COAL, base-ogive= 1.65 (123 amax), that gives me a jump of 0.1! Seems way over most recommendations of 0.02. Haven't messed with longer COAL yet. Looks like the AA Grendel mags are good to 2.8ish?
Lilja indicated this is a SAMMI Chamber, is it out of SAMMI spec?
