What suppressor?

I know there is no one do all suppressor for multiple calibers but looking for suggestions on one suppressor that I’d mainly use on 308 bolt rifle and sometimes on an AR 5.56.
I know it’s better to have dedicated suppressor for each but right now just getting one.
I was considering the Dead Air suppressors.
My main desire is sound suppression.
2nd would be size/weight
Flash/signature suppression isn’t something I’m worried about

Adios AAZ... burn in hell!


Hope it was painful and that he finds 72 Virginians waiting to kick the shit out of him.

Help Grey Ghost Precision

I have tried multiple times to order (probably no less than 50) over the last couple/several weeks to order 2 rifles on Grey Ghost Precision’s website without being able to complete my purchase. I have emailed without any meaningful help other than I am putting my information in wrong. Has anyone else had this problem or know what is going on over there?

If I didn’t enjoy my other GGP products I already have I would have moved on bye now. No phone number is provided and emailing is the only option.

Thanks in advance for any response or any ideas where to buy a couple of complete billet 5.56 rifles.

9 Pellets Vs. 12 Pellets

Forgive my ignorance as I'm not much for shotguns. With that said, I noticed that Federal is offering the 12 gauge load of buckshot with a 12 pellet load (instead of 9) at 1 17/16 oz.

I just got a Mossberg 930 SPX with open choke and mounted a Holosun optic on it. I plan on zeroing it for slugs at 50 yards but not worry as much as about the buckshot.

I'd like to try my hand at hunting coyotes with a shotgun as there are some places that I hunt where I'm very limited on the direction of fire and feel safer with a shotgun.

I was thinking that with a 30% increase in the number of pellets I might stand a chance of getting a corresponding increase in hit probability.

So has anyone tried these loads with 12 pellets? If so, what did you think? Should I stick with 9 pellet loads or go for the 3 inch magnum variety with 12 pellets?

Review: MK Machining Improved Grip for KRG W3

BACKGROUND - see here: https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/modifying-chassis-grip-how.7117184/

BACKGROUND TL;DR
Ok you lazy bastard, FINE. Don't read linked thread.
Spoon-feed info: I love my W3. Except for the thumb rest position and the finger-to-trigger distance (FTTD). Glove size: I have medium-to-large hands.

I read this thread and mediated next to the river: https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/kmw-sentinel-stocks.6971076/.

I dwelled upon the design of the MPA trigger finger-bump.

I then penned the thread at the top of this post; Tyler said he just needed somebody to send in a chassis for a 3D scan.

Here's my awesome drawing:

new.jpeg


$100 bux later, I UPS'd the chassis in to MKM last April, and Tyler and his team went to work. They are busy, so they just barely got it done for my July prairie dog shoot, but Fedex delivers to the middle of nowhere so all was good.

About me
I shoot prairie dogs and other smaller ground squirrels/“gophers” (yeah, PDs are ground squirrels too. Weird, huh? And our “gophers” are actually Richardson's ground squirrels).

I have attempted, and failed, to bag some crows and gray tree squirrels during their respective seasons. I am considering branching out to coyotes. I am not a PRS shooter, but like to optimize my setups waaaaay too much. I bench 110lbs, have one bow kill, and work with plaster of Paris.

Enough Sniper's Hide inside jokes! Tyler said to lay it out in a review, so here we go. Due to time pressure, I'll add to this review slowly vs all at once.

QUICK NOTES, GRIP
  • It's a prototype grip, not finished
  • It's made of some stuff that is super-tough and different than regular 3D printed material
  • The grip adds material on the front, which brings your middle, ring, & pinkie fingers further forward. This helps relax and position your hand to squeeze the trigger at 90º
  • The grip I got was smaller on the left and had a nice palm swell for the right and feels substantial
  • The "index finger bump" is optional* but REALLY helps that 90º squeeze, at least for this fool
  • It allows the thumb to fall way further forward than stock. The stock location always felt like I was thumbing a ride with Cheech and Chong.
  • I sanded down a part of the finger bump for comfort
  • It has a slight texture to it (me like)
  • The fit on the chassis is pretty good, not perfect. It’s a prototype.
  • LOTS OF DETAILS ARE UNDETERMINED for the final production version. Things like texture, etc. But I don't think they'll all have a thumb shelf on both sides.

QUICK NOTES, MAGWELL
  • It's a prototype too, I believe**
  • Made of more regular 3D printed-type of material vs the Adamantium-like wonder polymer of the grip
  • Works well and looks cool, serves as a barricade stop (but I have no barricades ha)
  • Turns my W3 into a Vision chassis lookalike, sorta. The W3 should’ve been designed like this from the get-go.

QUICK NOTES, RIFLE
Rem 700 .204, KRG Whiskey 3 chassis (6th gen), KRG optional aluminum arca forend, Near Mfg pic rail, Bix n' Andy TacSport Pro trigger


SUMMARY (details later)
Everything pretty much rocks. Especially after I sanded the bottom of the the index finger bump. Magwell helps guide mags and looks cool. Tyler of MKM does some impeccable work. I told him it has really transformed the chassis for me. Super comfy. So much so that I need to get a thumb rest for my AIAX as now that sort of feels like ass lol. Goddamnit I just had to work in a mention of my AI; I am a sad sad man.


Footnotes
* INDEX FINGER BUMP: The way it's designed is that It's supposed to bolt on, but MKM forgot the bolts, so I bought some epoxy and glued it on there. It's a prototype, remember, and I'm gonna send it back for scanning.

** MAGWELL: MKM forgot the bolts on this one too lol, but they are too awesome for me to care. I used some old KRG bolts I had laying around. It seems to be designed to use smaller bolts that would sit flush.

P.S. Forgive me my big rubber squeeze-on bolt knob and Hipstamatic camera app ok boomer lol

Cerakote Color Change During Oven Cure???

So I was Cerakoting my Star PD .45, Cold War Grey on the slide and Civil Defense Blue on the frame. For reasons unknown the frame changed from blue to brownish green in the oven. I prepped the surface well. Sand blast, wipe with acetone and heat up the parts to rid of any residue. The blue looked great going into the oven. Oven was at 275*. I checked about 45 min in and the frame had changed color. The grey slide looks great.

The brown/green color actually looks really cool so I think i'm going to leave it. Unfortunately, it doesn't go well with the grey slide so I'll probably respray it to black or tan.

Has this color shift happened to anyone else? Any idea what caused it? I don't want this to keep happening.

Thanks

Rifle Scopes Short variable to 10x, options?

I've got a special gun I'd like to have a 10x max scope on in a small footprint, basically I think the old NXS Compact 2.5-10x24 would be perfect but they are hard to find. Obviously I'm keeping my eye out for them, but considering what my other options are in a similar scope with that size objective and around the 8.8" length.

What options do I have? Anything out there comes close to the Nightforce 2.5-10x24?
