Or you can use a round nosed punch and a hammer and slightly dent one of the holes. This is what mine looked like after;

I got my barrel nut from Lan Tac @ just under a tenner. It arrived prompt and I was given some good advice re fitting etc.

Re fore end and getting items out of the USA. The Sampson that I have on mine uses a clamp system which somehow gets around the export regs. I am really happy with mine and have no hesitation in recommending that you check out the Sampson Fore ends - cheap (comparatively) as well,

Cheers, can't find one on their site, search only comes up with a Buffer Tube Lock Ring :)

Well, went to the range this morning and blasted off the last of the lead rounds I'd loaded, 6" group as expected (range is 20 or 25m not sure which!).

Then tried the 10 I'd loaded with reduced crimp and another 10 with reduces crimp and original slightly shorter length, first couple were 2" apart and I was almost happy until the next 8 went all over the place as usual

So, back to the Berrys copper plated and doing my best not to screw up I got 15rnds in a 1" group, did this 4 times in a row so I will def have to stock up on coppper plated, I know Lean at Bold Action have Frontier 115gr listed at €71 x 1000 so not much more than the Berrys I got in the US.

Have you tried 115/125 grn fmj?
