My 7-300 PRC Project *Updated With a Couple Kills*

First blood. Approximately a 120 - 140lb sow.

(Pig looks bigger due to perspective here)


I'd like to say this sow was 600+ yards away, but the truth is she was only about 175.

I went center-shoulder hold on a quartering-to shot, simply because I didn't know what to expect, and shooting her in the CNS seemed like the waste of an opportunity to see what this cartridge's capabilities are... a .223 would drop her doing that.

I watched the grass kick up behind her and she dropped her ass, raised her head in that convulsion pose...and then just fell over without so much as a twitch. Might as well have shot her in the head.

No entrance structure hit that I could tell. I think I went just under her near side scapula. The bullet crossed over the top and rear of the lungs (way too high for the heart), and it exited with only a out a nickel-sized hole (but did bring a lot of shattered off side rib bone with it). Not much blood at all until I started pressing on the exit, then it flowed. I imagine if she ran and tried breathing, there would have been a good trail.

Approximately 13-14" of penetration before exit.

This is an example of a theory that I do believe in - hydrostatic shock. Only broken bone I know of is the rib at the exit.

Maybe I can shoot a coyote off this sow in the next couple days.

How stupid can you possibly be.

apparently, the official looking stuff is very convincing and this is not terribly uncommon. they made a decent movie around it.

I hope reincarnation can go backwards in time so that in her next life she can experience honest and often desperate labor.

MK 12 Picture & Discussion Thread

My OCM5 suppressor finally came through. I read I need to use loctite on the collar. Any recommendations on an alignment tool? Just want to be sure I dont get a baffle strike.
I think you just need it on the set screw of the collar

Cheapest alignment rod option is getting a McMaster rod. I have bought four and had good luck. Sometimes the end of the rod is a little bent up so I just sand it out lately before putting it down the bore.

T.Rex Arms Meltdown

Back 5 ish years ago some clown on the Reddit gun deals sub tried to tell me the the botkims were polygamist Mormons.

I told them they were retarded we don't have Mormons in TN. Of course I got down voted to hell. That was pretty close to the end of reddit for me.

That whole site hates anybody that thinks being a cocksucker is a suboptimal male lifestyle.
"Quiverfull", I think is what they call it.

Feds building cross dept gun owner database

My entire career is based on building and deploying systems globally that evade state surveillance and persist beyond censorship in China, Turkey, Iran etc.

I have worked on actual Palantir deployments with European governments.

What I'm trying to explain here is that the database being proposed here is unlike ANYTHING that currently exists, and will be used in ways that are so invasive you can hardly imagine them. I'm intimately familiar with how Facebook, Google and others gather, broker and use/sell data. This is far worse and will permanently change every single American's lived experience for the worse.

If you see this as just something the government was already doing, you are deeply underestimating the technological differences in what the government has previously done and what they are attempting to do now.
being digitally ignorant and highly paranoid,i would like an understandable explanation. i doubt you are exaggerating. if you are what you intimate is and has been planned long time. results likely to be as you say. prob useful to most as info only. doubt anyone's ability to fight it or avoid it with the exception of a nuc war,asteroid hit or other planetary cataclysm.
said it before the digital world is nothing but a huge trap for humanity.

Do I need match ammo at 100 yards? Or is it a waste of money?

You’ll never know what the rifle will do or you will do with bulk ammo.

My “precision” ar will shoot frontier 77gr match sub moa the majority of the time and my 73gr hand loads very well. It groups in inches with any bulk ammo.

Cheap ammo is for 2-3 MOA steel fun and that’s still somewhat sketchy. You don’t have to buy Uber expensive match ammo, but you definitely gotta do better than the 55/62 stuff.

Do you drink anything while shooting?

While at Camp Perry I used to drink lots of Gatorade, that is until I drank too much and it made me rather unpleasantly ill. Then I drank nothing but water..... until I drank too much and it made me ill. The combo, for me was to water down the Gatorade to about 50-50. That seemed to be what kept me hydrated but didn't have side affects of too much of a good thing.
