Suppressors Rocksett - what did I do wrong?

So my Surefire shim kit came with a little vial of Rocksett, I had not used it before but have heard for semi's with high rate of fire and suppressors this would be better than Loctite due to its high heat resistance. I applied a liberal amount to my threads and then threaded on my TBAC SR brake, let it sit for over 24 hours and then tried to remove the brake and it spun off with little resistance??? What did I do wrong as the previous brake that was on there with Rocksett took significant force to remove? I'm used to Loctite but thought I'd try this stuff out; however, clearly I did something wrong...

Poor man’s shooting tripod

I was going to post this as a joke and then the more I played with it the more I realized it has true potential. I was tinkering around in the garage with my son and his air rifle and saw my bicycle stand. It is a Feedback Sports tripod. It can clamp the bicycle or your rifle just like a hog saddle and it is adjustable for height and pivots in all the necessary directions. You can actually get quite steady with it and you can reach all of the necessary controls for locking pivot and up-and-down while you have the rifle shouldered. I think it has potential as a toss in the back of the truck just in case kind of thing or even “leave it at your favorite hunting spot” deal, because who really cares since it’s only $110. (It can also double as a bicycle stand LOL.)

Reloading Predicament

Hi All,

I used to reload many years ago. Did that for Shotgun sports when I used to compete in Sporting Clays, and did so with a 1990's Hornady 366 (still in the attic).

Back then I was reloading (and shooting) about 20K shot shells a year. That was a necessity! It was a lot cheaper than buying that many Remington STS shells - my favorites - by far. At first it was fun, then it became work -a LOT of work. I also reloaded rifle ammo in .308 for hunting but don't have that press and kit anymore.

Fast forward to today, I'm off the shotgun sports and shooting precision rifle. So, I've been saving my Hornady 6mm once fired brass and I'm up to ~800 pieces.

Keep thinking I might go back into reloading. Then I looked at the cost. Starting with the setup - minimally ~$1.0k, then powder, bullets, primer, etc. - if I can find them.

On top of that, the Hornady factory match ammunition I am using has evolved to a point where it is so much better than yesterday's ammo that I get bug hole groups at a 100 yards with their 6mm108s more often that not. If I shop around I can get the factory ammo for a buck fifty a round. I doubt I can do better than that at home.

So, what's the point? I could see myself going back to reloading with all that brass and all, but the expense of setting up plus components don't seem to make sense, especially with the factory ammo's precision.

I want to make use of that once fired pristine brass though, hence the quandary.

I might just go deep and get involved in the reloading biz again, but this time doesn't seem like the '90s, when there was no other way.... There are no savings!

Thoughts?

First PRS rifle: SIG Cross PRS v Tikka T3X a1

Hey everyone. I’m finally looking to enter the world of PRS and I’m relatively green when it comes to which is the best entry level rifle to shoot production class in.

I have it down to the Sig Cross PRS vs the tried and true Tikka T3X in 6.5cm. While the Tikka seems like the safe choice, the PRS model of the Cross seems to be getting good reviews in the few that have been done on it so far.

So help me with my first set up. Which rifle, and as an add on - what would be good entry level glass for them?

$90 SOLD per 100 shipped CONUS. I accept Zelle, PayPal F&F, or Venmo.
