Had an interesting day at the range this past weekend. I had taken my 7 saum out to shoot a few rounds and was running it with the Dead Air Nomad-Ti that I have had for about 9 months. I normally hunt with a TBAC but like the size and tone and had recently switched to the Nomad-Ti. It is only used on bolt actions and never abused. Honestly it has never been too hot to take off because my rifles are so expensive to shoot (dang saums....) that I rarely shoot more than 5-10 round through it per session. The first two shots printed a nice little group at 200. Shot number three was violent with excessive recoil and an obvious problem. It took a second or two to make sure I still had 10 fingers etc and then noticed my suppressor was about 4" shorter. The base of the can was still firmly attached (direct thread mount) but the final 3.5 inches was missing in action. It took 4 of us looking to find the other 5 ounces of titanium roughly 65 yards downrange!! A pic of the now two piece can is attached. So to answer the questions that will be asked

1) There was no baffle strike (the bullet actually impacted 1" high on target)
2) Yes it was a hand load but was a proven load and brass looked perfect after firing (ADG, Fed 215m, 143 Ham Hunter, H4350 (58.5gr) at 3020)
3) Rifle was a Gunwerks Magnus chambered in 7 saum with a 20" proof barrel
4) I have submitted a warranty ticket and fully expect Dead Air to make things right.
5) No person or rifle was harmed from this failure

Just curious if this was a fluke with a weakness in manufacturing or if others have had any issue like this. Curious to hear others thoughts.

Is their a place where people without partners for mammoth to potentially find one? I have "a guy" that swears to me he is all about it but I'm starting to think he is just all talk. So might need to find a partner soon.

This is a gen 1 rifle. Elite Sand color.

No folder at the moment (might have one soon, which will increase price a bit if so).

-Less than 500 rounds on action.
-6cm Straight jacket 22” (I think, I’ll have to measure again, but it’s not a 24 or 26”) with less than 200rnds on it.
-3 mags included
-Long nvg rail
-Short nvg rail
-3 internal weights
-4 sawtooth external weights
-2 sawtooth “side bites”
-bugholes bag rider
-short picatinny rail with flush cup

Two mags runs 6gt and everything else perfectly. The 3rd mag likely needs to go to AI unless running .308.

$5500 shipped for it all.

Possible trades (+/- cash if needed):

-Swaro SLC 15x56 (newest model only)
-Gap 10 in 6cm or 6gt (no home built rifles)
-JP in 6cm or 6gt (no home built rifles)
-Swaro BTX 95 or 115 setup (might consider smaller objectives, but has to be the BTX eyepiece)
-MDT hnt26 (arca and folder preferred)

Will get more pics if needed. Rifle is in excellent shape.

Thanks

(Note: I’ve received a ton of PMs on various things. Ammo, loading, products, etc. I’m working my way through about 90 PM’s. I haven’t forgotten anyone. Just working my way down)

That just seems like a fitting name for FJB.

Add your own.

Anybody else use this company? I just got introduced to them yesterday. Money transfers for the gun buyers and sellers. 3 day escrow on the funds then released.

Last night I fired 5 handloaded rounds through my 20" 308 AR. FC brass, 175 smk bullet, 41.5 IMR4064, the 5 rounds average 2570 fps which is in the ballpark of normal for a 20" I believe.

However, I had 2 of the WLR primers piece at the edge..... see the 2 primers at the top of the pic in my hand. I don't believe I'm seeing any other pressure signs on the case head. The bummer is these pierced primers apparently stuck my ejector down, and cut little divots into my bolt face.

What would cause a primer to pierce at the edge like this? Is this bolt still safe to use once I get the ejector functioning again?

So my local group insists there is a Local Forum here for trading reloading compenents.

having the ability to read the forum rules there is only the PX. So either I'm a moron for not knowing about local forums on the hide
or my local group is truly just a bunch of assholes trolling me on a new level.

Dammit I can't move fast enough out of this hellhole.

Anybody have any experience with PA warranty returns? I've heard they have good CS, but I sent in a scope that wouldn't focus (one of their Japanese glass scopes), and I'm not thrilled with their communication. Are they just swamped right now? I never got a confirmation notice after they received my scope, but they did say they had received it when I asked a month later. Then a few days later they said it had been "restored to factory specs" and that I would receive a notice when it shipped. It's been nearly another month and no shipping notification. In this world of competitive warranty service from most scope manufacturers, this seems a little odd to me. Just curious if this is unusual or if I should just be patient.

I just received this scope from Vortex. Only opened the box and set in mount to look through it. Scope is as new with everything included. This is the MOA BDC Christmas tree reticle. $1850 Shipped. *Sold* I can include a like new Nightforce 20 MOA ultra light extreme duty cantilever mount for another $175.
