SOLD Premier Heritage 5-25 Gen2XR

The original alpha glass before TT came along. My favorite all time turrets and crosshair. This specific scope been a safe queen, mounted on a 6.5CM in a Spuhr mount. There are zero issues with this scope.

No TT does not warranty the scope anymore, yes you can get credit towards a trade in. Bottom line, this is still one of the best scopes ever made and now cheaper than a Vortex Razor Gen III.

Asking $2099 shipped
*throwlever and Tenebraex scope caps included

Self-proclaimed Pit Masters of SH- I've got some questions

For those here that are well versed with the smoking of meat- I've got a Weber SMC coming this week and it'll be my first experience into giving this type of cooking a try myself (although I am a longtime fan of the end result). So as mentioned- I've got a SMC coming, approximately 70lbs of Kingsford Blue Briquettes, as well as Hickory/Cherry/Mesquite/Pecan/Apple Wood chunks.

I've been reading through various online articles and watching YouTube videos over the past week and it sounds like either pork butt or chicken thighs is the most forgiving for starting out and I'm leaning towards starting with the thighs myself. I think I'm good with the importance of maintaining temperature and how to do it (I also have a Termopro temperature gauge in the order with two probes, one of which I believe is best served to use one to monitor the ambient temperature at the rack with the 2nd being used to monitor meat temperature), understand the trimming of various cuts of meats, dry rubs, and marinating/basting timing. If I start with the thighs, I'm thinking of using either the Pecan, Cherry or Applewood for the first time (I prefer the heavy smoke flavor that hickory or Mesquite will impart but I'll likely have a crowd to evaluate how things turn out so understand the alternatives to be a bit milder/safer for a group.

I'm still trying to figure out the whole wet/dry brining element though as well as to understand the variations in smoking temperature. I've also seen some recipes where they put the chicken thighs in a pan rather than directly on the grill/arguments on whether or not to use the water pan (seems to focus more towards it being more favorable for the lower temperatures as far as I can tell but chicken seems to want to be smoked hotter than say the pork butt ... So many variables and I'm still trying to figure it all out.

All that said- for the Pit Masters here, any tips/tricks for someone starting out on their smoking journey that you'd be willing to share?

Firearms B&T APC 556 (APC223)

Moved to auction site. No longer available here.


See Part 1 Here




1) B&T APC556 (LE/MIL Version of APC223) Rifle 16" Barrel. Unfired and with an upgraded Telescoping Stock (which cost me about $400, IIRC). I shot someone else's shorty version of this rifle (and in full auto to boot) and it was the softest shooting 5.56 rifle I've ever fired. Get the version that is marked correctly for what it is (a 5.56 rifle instead of the "we have to mark it .223 so we can export it" APC223 Model ;)). $3,400 Shipped $3100 $2950 Shipped. See pictures below - Note that there's a rub mark on the "left" side just above the safety selector. I can't tell if it's an abrasion or remnant of a sticker, tbh, but I quickly tried rubbing it away without any luck.

MPA Matrix Pro Chassis in an olive color. R700 SA right hand footprint. I had a terminus in here that ran like butter. I purchased this used and rocked it for about a season and a half.

resizing range pickup 5.56 brass

I have tons of 5.56 brass de-primed and cleaned and annealed but not resized yet. It all comes from stuff I have shot and my friends and shot and stuff that me being a "loot goblin" has picked up over the years at the range. I have 7K or so brass in reserve.

My question is about resizing. I don't really care about brass life as much as I do for my precision guns but measuring an AR chamber seems to be harder then removing the firing pin and extractor and checking bolt lift like I do with my bolt rifles. The only metric I can see anything concrete on is fired brass size and the go/no go gauge. It is worth it to set a FL sizing die to be .003 smaller then the go gauge or something subtracted from the no go gauge for a length?

I'm looking for a set it and forget it sizing die setup for my XL750 tool head with the bullet feeder for bulk reloading.

Do must people just not really worry about it and i am overthinking it?

Advice on .223 Tikka T3X and a KRG Bravo

Ok members, been sniffing around for info on these items and many threads are close but way off....I have mucho .223 components and was leaning towards the Tikka (Lite JRTXE312) and the Bravo stock. This is not a PRS rifle, (I looked at build parts and that is not in the financial folder 😞) but a fun bolt gun that I can shoot on the cheap, keep kids off my beautiful crabgrass lawn, and even let others try it as a starting point. As a certified service rifle slut, many nuances of the bolt gun realm escape me so I'll try to lay it out. Will there be any conflict running AICS mags with that particular stock? I plan to use mag length 77's and the 80's would be single load as needed. Looks like a simple task to drop the action into the stock but wanted to ask if there are any other pitfalls to consider?
The other varmint Tikkas are threaded but not the model I am considering. I'm sure John at Area 419 could thread it but wasn't sure if that would be out of
the question for this model. Wanted to run a can...Well shit....maybe I'll just call over there.... total budget including glass (Tasco scope from 1983 anyone..? :ROFLMAO:) $1400 - $1500 tops.

As always, thanks for any help and direction. Good luck and good shooting!

Doug
