Who do you recommend in the DFW area that works on a 308 AR? It's not a DPMS but is DPMS style, not Armalite.

Yes it's a factory built rifle. Radical Firearms. Doubt they will do anything about it. I don't expect bolt rifle accuracy, but this one with Chad's 155 gr ELD-M will do about 2-2.5" groups at 100 yards. My other 308 ar (Factory DPMS LR 308 w/16" barrel) does much better than that. Not sure what is wrong with this one. Already put a new trigger in this one

That is likely a bad barrel.

I hate to say it but the answer is in the question of "Why does my Radical Firearms AR-10 shoot badly?"

Yup, I’d put a new barrel on it. That’s approach fixed my AR accuracy problem.

If you are ever out in Sachse I can do it for you. It’s super simple, I have all the tools as well.
