I did read the links. I am concerned about finding sharp bits without ordering and waiting. Home Depot or Ace doesn’t inspire confidence with Chinese products..
Btw, while ‘Survivalshop’ gives these number from Tactical Machining:
DPMS LR-308 Style Rifle
18" rifle 0.308. 0.096
I did find in the links where some posters referred to ranges with minimum and maximum.
Ref: “supposed to be 0.0890" mimimum to 0.0960" max, actually drilled at 0.0760". Drilled it out to the minimum 0.0890" and it "kinda-sorta" worked most of the time, went back and drilled to 0.0960" and now it works like a champ”.
And another anecdotal case given, the poster, 1911popo, got good performance at .0930.
If I find bits tomorrow I plan on giving it a try. I’m gonna get as close to .0960 as I can without going over. I’ll bring calipers when I go shopping.
