I have really been enjoying this cartridge so I thought I would share my findings.

26" Benchmark 1-7"
lapua brass
CCI 450
40.25 gr. H4350
Berger 133
2890 Ave. Velocity.

I have experimented with 6.5 staball and with 41.5 grains i have reached velocities of 2960 fps. I cannot get this powder to behave consistently. I wish I could because it would be awesome.

I would love to hear anyone else's info.

Thanks!

Prefer Harris. Great bipod. QD. Some scratching on attachment point. $190.

My 375 build is almost done, and I am not quite sure which bullet I want to start pushing through it. I'm looking at the 400-grain CE Lazers and 402-grain CE Mtac. Any other opinions on bullets to look into using with this 8-twist barrel? Was planning on running H50BMG powder, I also have Retumbo, N570, and N568 that I could try as well.

I was notified that I’m up to send in two actions for my son and I for testing. My question is for those who sent theirs in, did you ship in a cardboard box or a hard case. If in a hard case, did you just tape the latches and add a zip tie through the locking hole? I am aware that my FFL will be the one who actually ships, but he will prepare however I ask.

These are the BA. Both RimX. One is 24”, 1.20 built by Desert Precision. The other is 24” 1.25 built by Modacam. Both with BnA Tac Sport X Pro triggers.

The 300 PRC, 30-375R, will be a cataloged item with SAMMI in the next two weeks. I don't know how long it will take them to add it to their website. Dave Manson has the specs and can make anyone a reamer.

I would like some in-ear/ear bud electronic (sound amplifying) hearing protection to use instead of my muffs when not shooting a lot of rounds or in enclosed areas.

My only real criteria are that they be tethered together and have hooks over the ears as I find I often knock ear buds out of my ears. Battery life and durability is also important.


Also regarding hearing protection I understand muffs reduce vibrations that carry sound to your ear and that plugs alone aren't as good.

That said on a scale of 1 to 10, with zero being no hearing protection, one being cigarette butts or 9mm cases, and ten being foam plugs jammed right into your ear canals combined with gel cup muffs how good are ear bud type plugs alone?

Great condition MPA BA Mount. 35MM 1.25” height, 20 MOA.

I always thought that the bigger the tube the more adjustment was available for elevation/ windage. But looking at the new NX8 4-32-50 with a 30mm tube it has 26.2 mills of elevation and the gen 2 Vortex 4.5-27x56 with a 34mm tube has roughly the same. What is the upside to a bigger main tube? Trying to decide which one to get.

Got an almost new RIX Storm 6 for sale. Very nice scope I’m just ready to been upgrade to something with ocular zoom and LRF. Only been hunger 3/4 times.

Comes in box, and I’ll throw in some extra 18650s.

=======================================================================

The Department of Defense will host this year’s Armed Forces Day (AFD) Crossband Test, scheduled for May
10, 2025. This annual event is open to all licensed amateur radio operators and will not impact any public or
private communications. For more than 50 years, military and amateur stations have taken part in this event,
which is an interoperability exercise between hobbyist and government radio stations.
The AFD Crossband Test is a unique opportunity to test two-way communications between military
communicators and radio stations in the Amateur Radio Service (ARS), as authorized in 47 CFR 97.111. These
tests provide opportunities and challenges for radio operators to demonstrate individual technical skills in a tightly
controlled exercise scenario that does not impact any public or private communications.
Military stations will transmit on selected military frequencies and will announce the specific ARS frequencies
monitored. All times are ZULU (Z), and all frequencies are Upper Side Band (USB) unless otherwise noted. The
frequencies used for the test will not impact any public or private communications and will not stray outside the
confines of the exercise.
The following stations will be making two-way radiotelephone contacts with stations in the ARS between the
time periods listed on the frequencies listed in Kilohertz below.

Edit to add,
Your transmitter will get finger printed during this exc,... So if you are paranoid, (and don't know how to change its print) don't key up with a TXmiter you plan on using, if shit goes side ways one day.

Anyone tried loading the new .224 62gr ELD-VT? Looking for any reports on it.

Selling my very good condition Razor HD Gen 2 4.5-27x56 w/ EBR-2C reticle. Has some almost unnoticeable ring marks but is otherwise free of dents, dings and scratches. Includes Aadland scope caps.

Asking price is $1450 shipped.

Looking to tinker with a Garmin Foretrex 901 Ballistics Edition. Only wanting a practically new unit.

I’ve been following the market on how much they’re selling for. So I don’t want either of us to waste each others time.
One sold for $450 last month, another sold for $425 in November. Both basically new.

With that being said, Scammers, don’t waste my time. F* off elsewhere…

For sale is a MPA BA Chassis for a CZ 457. This was purchased used by me a few years ago. I ended up barely using it.

Im asking $550 shipped. But if my pricing is way off, please let me know. The only trade I would be interested in is a MDT Field stock for a CZ 457 in green if possible.

Thank you for looking.

Noveske 16” 308 Barrel with a 1/10 twist and Muzzle brake is a FCD keymo brake, Noveske Gas Block and gas tube that was matched and fit at Noveske. Noveske also matched and headspaced the barrel with the Noveske Dual ejector bolt carrier group when assembled at Noveske. Also included is the Noveske ambi charging handle. I’d like to sell this together. $700 buys it all which is a great deal!

I'm left-handed and getting fairly serious about precision rimfire (PRS, NRL22). I have shot right-handed bolt guns my entire life. I currently run a heavy barreled B14R, and I feel that it hasn't held me back up to this point. Right now, I come off of the rifle with my support hand to run the bolt.

Looking for the opinions of people who have done this way longer than I have and who can steer me in the right direction!

Looking to finish an A-5 Build.
