Rocksett and torque

I can't find this specific answer so... I'm about to mount my first muzzle brake using rocksett. Does the addition of rocksett add or take away torque from my initial dry setup with just the shims?

Put another way, will the brake turn more or less to achieve the same torque value? I'm having a very frustrating time finding the correct shim combo and don't want to be back to square one upon adding rocksett.

223 bolt gun feed fixes

Looking for guidance how to set up a .223 bolt gun to feed reliably. I've searched the forum and all the past posts just turn into a pissing match as to why one mag material is better than the other. Let's just skip that argument...

Factory Rem 700 223 in KRG Bravo. Issue I have is that the last 1-3 rounds do not reliably feed. What happens is as the cartridge tips up into the chamber the base gets pushed down into the mag and the bolt rides up on top. Sometimes it doesn't even start chambering and the bolt will just slip over the top of the case.
One thing I noticed is if I push all mags firmly up into the magwell they will all feed no issues. So I'm debating if the adjustable trigger guard from KRG is worthwhile or if it's a bandaid for a bigger issue.

Anyone have tips to make these feed more reliably? I have 1x Metal MDT, 2X Polymer MDT, and 2X Magpul mags. Trying to source an accurate mag locally to test before I buy anymore. So far I'm striking out though.

SOLD Factory KAC PVS30 L3 White Unfilmed Clip-On PRICE DROP

Looking to move to a thermal clip on, so this is for sale. Less than 3 hours of use on it. BLEM FREE tube. Email from KAC confirmed it is an unfilmed white L3 tube with a FOM around 2300. There is zero POI/POA shift. I have put it on my SP10 and taken it to 1100 yards. This unit smokes the single battery green PVS30s, PVS27s, and white L3 CNVD-LR I have compared it against in terms of resolution and light transmission. And again, zero blems anywhere in the tube.

It has only been used on a 6.5CM, 5.56, and 22LR. It is 3 months into a 1 year warranty from KAC (they can be finicky about transferring, but I haven't had issues doing so with other units that had defects). I have all of the paperwork to show that this is a legit unit that was shipped directly to me from KAC. You won’t have to worry about a knock on your door from a .gov suit in the future.

The pics through the scope were taken from my phone last night at 50 yds while it snowed. First picture is at 4x (no IR), second picture is at 8x (no IR), third pic is at 8x (with IR).

Will trade or work a trade for a CLIP-IR ELR, UTM/UTX, etc. Or $8500 firm shipped to you. I would also trade for a green single battery PVS30 or PVS27 and $$ so that I can invest the cash towards a thermal.

Happy to answer any questions you may have. Other Hide members have looked through the unit in person and can also verify or attest to the quality.

Manners / Tac Ops Possible Collaboration Build

Tom and I have been speaking about doing a collaboration build. The platform would be the Tac Ops X-Ray 51mf. That would be his T4A folder with a Badger Forward EFR mount with a Krieger Varmint contour barrel installed into a Surgeon 591 action & DBM. I’ll probably offer a 16 ¼ to 18 inch barrel threaded for a Tac Ops Titanium Can. He was thinking seriously about discontinuing the folder and I hope that he keeps it in his fine inventory of products.

We are still in talks about this collaboration and wanted to see who might be interested? We are talking about 25 to 50 platforms atm

SOLD Rimx/proof/Ep5

Barreled action, bix trigger, and arken EP5 up for grabs. About 500 rounds down it. Shoots the SK long range into tiny groups. Subs shoot not as well but that's to be as expected, however they are very fun with a suppressor. Group below was first 5 round group with SK long range. I'll probably regret selling this but to many irons in the fire. Included is roughly 900 rounds SK long range and 400 rounds cci quiet. (Suppressor not included)
Also comes with 2 mags
$2500 tyd.

May be willing to trade for ATACR or mark5 in mils.

I’m rebarreling a 28nosler and leaning toward 300 prc. Check my logic.

I want the gun to do what a 28nosler does- carry 1500 ft/lbs out to 800 yards. I have basic stuff for reloading, and about 100 once-used 300 prc brass, but if I can find factory ammo that does what I want, I’ll just save myself time and use that.

The other options.

Vs 300 win mag. I first assumed I wanted 300 win mag because of the availability of ammo. But I’m not seeing any factory ammo that gets 1500 ft/lbs at 800. A few hard-to-find and expensive options get it out to 700, but most of the typical 180grain stuff peters out at 600. I could get a 1:9 twist barrel, deepen the throat and shoot heavy bullets to get me out to 800, but why not just get a PRC that does that out of the box?

Vs 28 nos - quickly becoming convinced 28nosler is being made obsolete by 7mm prc. Everything about it is expensive and hard to find.

Vs 7mm prc - I don’t see any advantage over 300prc, unless you want less recoil. I put brakes on all my stuff, so not an issue.

Vs 338 win mag - kind of seems to be becoming obsolete- stuff is expensive and not so easy to find. Might as well get a PRC with slightly better inherent ballistics.

Vs 338 lapua- same as 28 nos. At $7 a round, I won’t shoot enough to become proficient with the rifle. I’d have to reload to get the price down enough to shoot a few hundred rounds without going broke.

Kind of seems 300prc is the way to go. Kind of stinks that honrnady eld-x is the only widely accessible hunting ammo, so there’s a chance I’ll wind up reloading. But all the options above would probably require reloading anyway, either to get the ballistics I need or to get the price of ammo down to a tolerable level.

Made a poll for the fun of it.

Night Vision Thermals

Long time listener, first time caller.

I have spent the last two weeks following a similar jump into the world of thermal optics this past summer and all I manage to do is confuse myself. I’m posting because I’m just frustrated and tired of running in freaking circles…I live in a small town so it’s not like I can run down to (fill in the blank) and handle/try out anything; I’m entirely reliant on the internet/forums and I’m just getting nowhere.

I’m looking for two things. The first and one that’s confusing me is a thermal weapon sight. I’m north of 50, I’ve learned to buy the one I want first because it’s far more expensive to ladder my way up and I’ll end up with that one way or another anyway.

Best example is probably early in my hunting career, also optics. I bought three sets of binos up until I finally got what I really wanted…a nice pair of rangefinder binos. Would have been way less expensive to just save up and get what I wanted although it’s nice to have a couple of pretty good binos for the kids or friends who forget or don’t have them or whatever. Also I never wonder if I could see better with a little bit better glass.

This stuff is far too expensive to go jacking around with and I don’t want to buy three to get the fourth that I really want, so here I am. I cannot be the only one who finds this incredibly confusing.

Plan is to buy Pulsar XR50’s for scanning and a dedicated weapon sight for rifle(s).

I think I’ve learned enough to know that 640 is an important number, I don’t care whether I can record video at all, in fact I won’t use that feature at all. I just don’t want to have buyers remorse. I’ll shoot inside of 300 and may swap between a .300BO and 6.5 Grendel, both are AR’s but primary is .300BO. I’d like it to range whatever I’m looking at and would like to zero a couple of reticles to my rifles/loads.

Of course the first question back at me is probably, “What’s your budget?” The answer is I don’t know. Maybe below $8k? $5000? No idea. Brand? Don’t know, don’t care. I like and run Trijicon and EoTech among other brands on different rifles but I’m not married to any of them. My open tabs on my ipad right now are, “I Ray”, “Trijicon”, “Halo-LR” but because I’ve got over 100 tabs open that’s just the start. I’m not above buying used either.

Would one or more of you who knows this stuff be so kind as to throw two or three brands/models out there that you believe will fit the bill? Say run the spectrum of $3500-$8000.

I should have done this about July so I could shop and potentially grab one at some sort of a decent price. Now is most likely the time that demand is strongest so I suspect price is not moving around much.

Will probably buy this first and wait on the binos…it’s a lot of $ and I dang sure want to know I’m going to use this stuff enough to justify the spend.

Since I’ve got you…are the Pulsar binos I mentioned what I ought to be looking at? Are there others/as good/better at roughly the same price?

Thanks guys, and I’m sure thankful for forums such as this where others give so freely of their experience/knowledge. I’d chime in if I thought I’d be helpful but since this stuff is NOT my specialty I just keep my mouth shut and am thankful for those who give so freely of their experience/knowledge to complete strangers. If you want to know something about inshore gulf coast fishing or smoking ribs…happy to oblige with what I know. That’s all I’ll claim to be half good at.

Bill Maher

He's a talented funny fellow and though I disagree with much of his rhetoric. He pretty well nails it here.

-Christ was not born on 25 December. Its the celebration of the pagan solstice. As Im going to prove in a follow up thread, Christmas is nothing but a lie deception. Santa is a foul lie foisted on children. I remember a Xmas cartoon that stood out starkly...All good things come from Father Christmas Im not being a scrooge, but think we all need to see the truth. Honoring a lie is almost always catastrophic.

-Our country was not founded on 'Christian' values. The words were "Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. John Adams ". Many of the founders thought of themselves as deists'. Google it. To do what Johnson and many others want would be exactly contrary to separation of church and state.

best place to buy factory ammo these days? maybe family run?

i've tried ammseek but the top three "affordable choices" seem to jack up the shipping, one place wanted 120$ vs 50 or 60$ at the others. plus i had never heard of any of them. 2 of them had the exact same website format which made my paranoia crank up. i was thinking of using a smaller shop but they are so hard to find. might as well support a new business if possible. just getting a full case or 1/2 a case of hornady varmint express 6.5cm so it's not like a big order or anything

can anyone recommend a smaller store that may need business with the holidays coming up? maybe a long time member on here who has opened a new store? online or brick and mortar, doesn't matter.

went to the "resources" tab on here to look for forum sponsers but nothing is jumping out
