I finally got a chance to shoot my new Palmetto State PA10.
When I received the gun I went through it and made sure to take it apart and lubricate it up as I reassembled it.
I put a Nikon P-223 scope on it and hoped it would hold up to .308 being fired.
I shot 100 rounds through it today and not one single Hiccup of any kind was noticed.
I shot at 100 yards today after using 5 rounds to sight in scope at 50 yards.
This rifle to my surprise was a joy to shoot and was very accurate.
I shot the first 5 shots and cleaned the barrel after each of the first 5 shots (While sighting in scope).
after that I moved to 100 yards and was shooting from a sitting position resting on Blocks with carpet on them, see my 100 yard target pictured below.
I was using monarch 308 ammo for this session (Cheap stuff).
The trigger was standard AR-15 style milspec set and performed well (I did stone the surfaces on the Hammer and Trigger, like I always do).
The trigger broke clean with slight over travel and the reset was quick.
As you can see this rifle Shot well (YMMV) and I am stoked to have this weapon in my arsenal.
I bought the Upper and Lower separate from each other and paid for each while they were on sale:
