Ar-308 45 raptor help!

Thanks. Do you feel that 9 rounds is going to be the most it will hold reliably?

9lbs without a scope. Hmmm. I sent a couple emails today seeing if any 45 Raptor barrel makers will make a slimmer profile barrel.

The tenth round won't physically fit because the case is larger. I'm not sure if there is a larger mag available. I know from talking with the marker of round Arne, that it has to be a straight mag. No curved

Thank you. That's been my frustration with the 450 Bushmaster magazines too. They need to be straight. So you just cant hold many rounds.

This was definitely the most frustrating builds I've done. Not sure if I'd do it again. When it's working right it's pretty powerful round.

I have a single shot 18 inch 460sw Mag rifle that is balistically the same as the 45 Raptor. But i would be sweet to have a repeater that held 15-20 rounds with all that foot pounds of energy! No practical reason, just fun.
