New Applied Ballistics® Quantum™ APP! - & It's Free!

Wormydog1724
Just started using the app with my 5700 Elite, I love it. lots of cool features, well done.

I'm shooting a lot of gas gun matches recently. I have my profiles setup with their reticles (Tremor 3 and Tremor 5), when in the Target Card or Range Card I like to use the Reticle feature to view my holds and reference which wind dot(s) to use prior to the statge,. Is there a way to make the red "target" smaller so I can see more of the wind dots and stadia more clearly? I use my fingers to zoom in on the red 'targets' but they stay honking huge.

Also, I think it would be cool if there was a menu for all of the Accuracy 1st features that are on my 5700 Elite, if they were all able to be viewed in one spot on one screen, even if it was only available when connected to my Kestrel, I'd still be happy with that.

Discontinued proof barrel?

Not everyone can justify spending $1000 or so plus a $200 tax stamp just to be "cultured". Especially those of us that are newish to shooting and competing.

There's a lot of things on my wish list and a quality suppressor is one of them, but it's going to be a while before I can afford one and there are other items ahead of it on the priority list.

There's a lot of good information on this site, but also a lot of elitist attitude like this that gets tiresome quickly and honestly could be turning people off to this community. Is that what we really want to be doing here?

Man... This is an ongoing joke around the Hide for many years.

Nobody is going to persecute you for not using a suppressor, especially if you are out shooting by yourself. The suppressor fans though may, however, give you a little ribbing here and there.

Build as you go, and enjoy the ride.

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to look down my nose upon you...

.223 Rifle Build

I have been contemplating a Solus/Orgin action with proof steel prefit in 223 but they only offer 223 Rem and not Wylde.. 556 77g a lot more widely available. Outside of proof it seems like most prefit barrels out there will run close to 1k..

Anyone know where someone can get a prefit 223 wylde around the same price as a proof?

I have two options for 223 chambers, both the same body (which is also the same as a Wylde)

0.062 freebore (a Wylde is 0.0618, so it's a Wylde, I just got tired of people calling and saying "What's the freebore of your Wylde")
0.100 freebore (designed for bolt guns shooting 70+ grain bullets to seat them longer)

You can custom order the barrel HERE. It's not the same price as a Proof but we also offer customized options you that you can't get from Proof or Criterion.

There's a thread on this forum about PVA Experience and a number of guys showing groups from various 223 builds that we've done for them. The recurring theme is ragged holes.

I'm happy to help if you want to give us a shout

I’m running ABQ for my Duece, in parallel with my Kestrel as a bit of a QC check. I had to try a couple different PDM’s, but it works just as well, although I’m running Eley Team.

Was it as simple as taking the chrony data and finding the right PDM to suit your DOPE?

Or not that simple?

If you find a source for mag well assembly, please let me know. Mine blew up and sadly, I’ve been without my favorite 22.

Unfortunately I'm still looking. Brownells used to have them, but with their website update a year or two ago it seems all the gun schematics and factory replacement parts disappeared off their website and the old stocking part numbers went dead. Beretta USA and MGW don't have them either.

I was always surprised that nobody made a machined aluminum mag well and latch assembly years ago when the quads were super popular. At this point it would be an expensive endeavor with limited return as the market for the quad is nowhere near what it was as the CZs took over the "pretty nice reasonably priced rimfire" segment.

Well right after the end of the revolutionary war the greedy bastard politicians in the big cities decided they needed to pay the bankers and foreign kings in a hurry and decided to do figure out how to outdo the British in their evil stamp taxes and go tax all the dirt poor destitute farmers on having the means of production to process their crops into things that could be transported to the cities for sale.

Didn't matter if they were too broke, or had no crops, pay up or men with guns will come for you and your family.
And when the farmers said no...

Oh the government raised an army to go put the boots to them and threaten to slaughter anyone who resisted the new tyrannical taxes.

Also you are mixing up taxation with civil liberties and rights.
Well remember all those stupid politicians people voted for and all that load of garbage about "but it's for the good of the children" or "it's for patriotic defense" or "it's to help those virtuous poor" stuff that so many "good folks" get on their knees and slurp down? Oh right that's how they got you for all those taxes.

Yep.

See Whiskey Rebellion 1794, and the kicker is that old G.W. was a distiller himself.

Of course, if you go to Mt. Vernon these days, there is a whole wall dedicated to "George Washington...the abolitionist" :LOL:
