Bolt lock-up time is increased and the recoil is reduced. The MOA on all of them was reduced. i have never had a feed problem or a breakage. I have 2 5.56 rifles , a 20" bull and an 18" of which I use the 5.56 buffer and spring. I just keep things simple.
Like the ones DPMS uses on their LR308 rifle? I never thought to try that. My LR-308 AP4 uses a standard ar15 collapsible tube but with a heaver spring and buffer. I'll have to swap it over to my .450 to see if it still works. Great Idea, and welcome aboard(even though you have been lurking around since April)!
I use the DPMS LR 308 A2 stock,spring, and buffer. I make one order and get it as a package. keeping it simple. I like to
"lurk" on the threads,,a lot of info here. I load 57 calibers and for 51 years at the bench. I am a HOOT fan.
I like that 40 carbine thread,,I think i will get a LR308 upper,bolt and barrel, get it rechamberd and bored, 1 in 10 twist,
stretch the neck of the 308 case, with a 40 s@w resizer ball. that is keeping it simple. I make 357 Herret from 30-30 cases, so the 40 carbine should be pretty easy. Let me know how the LR308 AP$ works on the 450b.
