Hi my name is Randy just joined, love the site a lot of info. Love it. I am looking for info on reloading for Rock river Arms AR 8 in 308 .cal. I have had the rifle about a year and love it. I have reloaded for a long time but getting confused about what primer to use for the AR 8 308 rifles in semi auto. I want to load some 147 grn FMJ and 150, 168 grn bullets just for hunting no long range yet. Some info use CCI LR, CCI# 34 and other info says to use military LR primer or magnum LR primer. What in your opinion would be the best primer in the AR 8?
Thanks
Randy

Hey all, I just came onboard. I retired from the US Army in 1989 and have been working ever since to help myself and other disabled Veterans, their earned compensation. OK, this is a good a time as ever to ask my first question: I recently purchased an ar15(M4 style)rifle from MMC(Moores Machine Company) It came new with an M16 style BCG and also has another interesting characteristic. The front of the bolt carrier has an "octagon" shape, through many searches, I have seen it mentioned one time that it is an improved carrier design which allows better accuracy with less friction.(riding on the "octagon" runners). I dunno! lol Anyone have any insight? Thank you and again "howdy"

You have pictures of this "octagon" BCG? I'm always looking for the best BCG... maybe start a new thread with pics.

Welcome aboard, and thank you for your service. I am also interested in pix if you could post them up for us.
