Suppressors Form 4 wait time

I just got a YHM Fatcat through Silencer Shop and I was able to do much of what I needed to do through a local gunshot that had a kiosk. Order placed on 4/15. Silencer arrived at my local shop on 4/24. I got my email from ATF on 4/28, but my shop is closed on Mondays. Picked it up 4/29.

All in all, I've heard of things happening faster, but I'm not complaining. I think I'll likely stick with Silencer Shop for future purchases. They made it as painless as I'd imagine it could be.

Maybe too easy. I got one in Feb, one in March and just got my third in April! lol

Low Recoil AR Load

I have found that lightest recoiling AR loads have been with lighter bullets, and faster powders. A 40 Vmax with N133 will be extremely soft shooting. If you are concerned about reliability, you don't necessarily need to load a light charge, even heavier charges with the light bullet/fast powder combo will still be extremely soft.

Another favorable byproduct of this combination is that fairly stiff charge will generate plenty of gas for the muzzle brake to work, and further reduce recoil.

Varget and TAC are pretty slow burning to use with 55 gr or lower projectiles.

Benchmark and H322 are the most insensitive fast burning powders. N133 is more so, but the N1** series VV powders were formulated to be less temp sensitive and I doubt this would actually be an issue for you.
Im gonna get some light ass bullets and see what I can come up with.

After killing unarmed man, Texas deputy told colleague: 'I just smoked a dude'

I'm glad the mouth breathers have found each other in the pit on snipers hide. It would probably be difficult to find people that would sit in a circle and jerk each other off while you whine about cops.

I said very clearly that the cop shouldn't have shot him. I don't care that he's dead though, let me make that point clear. I don't care when daredevils fall off cliffs while base jumping either, because stupid people often find a way to end it in spectacular fashion. He fought with a guy who had a gun. I've looked everywhere for his toxicology report, but it's been suppressed. He was stuffing a crack pipe into his waist when he got out of the car. The cop thought it was a small gun when he was frisking him. Turned out it was only a crack pipe. So, if you believe he is armed and actively fighting you, then giving him the clearance to pull a pistol and kill you is really fucking dumb. Stupid people commit suicide all sorts of different ways. This one made that choice.

Low Recoil AR Load

Try thinking about this in reverse...

If you know a good recipe first, then being able to mass produce it with a progressive is yet another challenge.
The best powders for temp stability are usually not ball powders, and as such they tend to be extruded single base which also implies that they are not as easy to run through an automatic powder drop.
When thinking about an AR, you have the added burden of satisfying the gas system to keep the feed and function reliable as the first priority.

On the other hand, up to 300 yards it really doesn't take sophisticated ammo to hold inside the X, so unless you are needing ammo that runs less than 0.5 MOA, it isn't hard to feed an AR with your Dillon. YMMV
Good Luck.
Right now the rifle is running on very little gas as it is. I run a ti carrier and adjustable gas block got it chocked out pretty well. My thought was with the lighter mass bolt I should be able to get reliable cycling with a low power load. Maybe not tho... Only reason I was looking to go down this path first is because Im on the wait list for the Ingenuity system. My plan was to get that and use the 650 but manually dump the powder from the Ingenuity. Maybe Im off my rocker on that too.

Rifle Scopes March 5-42 Gen 2 PRS Edition

Shit. I forgot the new FML-WBR! And the S&B Gr2id/Tr2id. I gotta get some other stuff done. I’ll add it later and update this thread.
I'm not clear on what your goal here is, but I can't help but think this analysis of yours would be much better located in its own thread, rather than this one on the March PRS scope review. I have visions of long drawn-out discussions one the (de)merits of one reticle versus others and that deserves its own thread. I would be happy to participate and if you think Brandon is opinionated, you're in for a surprise.
