I just got a 50 percent off cert for thunderbeast and I am trying to decide which can to get. I have an idea I want to build a 300 PRC so primarily that is what the can would be sitting on in most cases but I also may but it on some other short action cartridges. I want one of the magnus line suppressors. Currently thinking of the magnus rr or the magnus-s rr. What are some pros and cons of each. Weight is not really a factor.

Larue 16” AR10 - .308
88 rounds recorded 168 FGMM

Comes with extra 14in barrel with one box of 168FGMM through.
Also comes with proper hand guard to fit shorter barrel. Tan furniture grip/stock. Three mags.
Selling due to unexpected heart procedure.

Shoots lights out!

$4,300 for all listed

Fired for zero. These are back-ups or spares. Excellent condition.

Thinking ahead to this summer, I want to replace the barrel on my run and gun upper.

Currently she has an odin works 14.5 pencil barrel in 223 wylde. I'd like to stick with the 223 wylde setup.

I'm thinking something along the lines of:

- V7 14.5 inch barrel in regular weight (interested in them after reading about them here)

- Noveske 14.5 afghan ( expensive but excellent)

- proof - carbon or SS (heard many good things)

- criterion (no first hand knowledge)

- Something from Knights? - I'm no KAC fanboy, I don't even know if you can get just a KAC barrel - but they always do excellent in 3rd party testing.

What am I missing? What other barrels should I look at? Accuracy is great, the ability to run hard and be put away wet is also pretty high on the list. I'll be running an adjustable gas block and probably a surefire comp and blast diverter.

I recently picked up a WOA barrel for my 20" AR and love it. I don't see anything shorter than a 16 inch on WOA's website though.

Well this is a good start.

If there was a whistleblower, they should get a nice, big fat check on this one!

As the title states, looking for a Hawkins m5 DBM for a Long Action. Needs to fit a 300WM AICS Mag

Hello, first-time poster here. I'm interested in picking up an AXSR in 300 PRC but have a few questions I was hoping one of you might be able to answer. My plan would be to have a 280 Ackley barrel spun up, and I am trying to figure out what bolt I would need to use. Would the .308 bolt work, or will I run into issues given the LA cartridge? Would that concern be assuaged by proper barrel chambering? Would I need to modify specific magazines? Would it instead require a different bolt face on the 300 PRC bolt? Any input is appreciated - Figured I’d try asking here prior to calling Mile High or Accuracy International.

I'm wanting to install a dimmer on a three pole switch but when I opened the switch cover and pulled the switch, there is not a ground wire attached. This in a multiple switch box.

Any help would be appreciated.

Pics-

Current switch



Edit: added pic of entire box exposed. The green on the other dimmer is connected to a bare ground wire.




New dimmer. Same manufacturer as the current switches.




I'm also wanting to add dimmers to single pole switches but those switches are in similar type box and wired exactly the same as the first pic. I initially installed a single pole dimmer but lost power to some outlets and lights I'm assuming are farther down the line from the single pole switch.

By luck or fate or just the power of Thor I have finally acquired a M40A6 chassis….. however…..the top rail was cut and cleaned down and refinished just behind T26. Not sure what the thought process was, but the original owner said something about railflex under certain conditions. Either way, now I need solutions. Do I attempt to find a whole new top rail? If so any ideas on that? Or do I go with a custom fabricated base that matches in height and is the appropriate length to appear monolithic?

Also, not necessarily a clone purist, any thoughts on a good action? I have considered GAP just aren’t sure if they are still doing A6s.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

A mate sent me this video (don't bother watching it is a complete waste of 8mins) that suggests a new MVPO is going to be released soon.
Zero Tech isn't a brand that pops up very often, I believe they are quite popular in Australia though.

The video is terrible and contains no useful information but the fact a 1.5-12 is on the way is interesting.
A lot of their scopes are just Chinesium but I believe they do have some Japanese made scopes, this design kinda looks like some other JOL scopes so who knows could be Japanese.

I am selling my Mike's Reloading Bulletfeeder. Its 3D printed and runs great. Comes with 9mm, 45acp and 223 bulletfeeder plates.

This will run on any Dillon press that will run a Mr.Bulletfeeder. it will come with the mount to hang on your casefeeder.

It uses the same Mr.Bulletfeeder dropper dies found here. This sale DOES NOT come with the dropper dies. You will need to buy dropper dies for each caliber (9mm, 45acp and 223).


Know what your buying. This is an AS IS sale. There is no warranty or refunds if you dont know how to use this or dont know what your buying. All sales are final.

This unit is fully functional and pulled from one of my working XL650s loading 45acp.

I will do a video for anyone that wants to see it running, I will show where the set screw is to show how to slide the bullet flipper plate in and out to adjust for different bullets.

Comes with the fully working bulletfeeder, 3 bullet plates (9mm, 45acp and 223), power supply, and mount that hangs off side of casefeeder.

I am a beginner looking to buy a Thermal scope For $2k or less, I have been looking at the Iray TL25 & TL35 and the Athlon Cronus 35-400, but want some opinions from the hide before ordering anyone have these scopes what are the differences and how do they stack up compared to one another. Are these scopes worth it for the money or what are you all using? Mainly going to be using it for coyote season in Missouri shooting under 300 yards, mounted on an AR .233.

New in the box, never even removed, GRAY OPS 34mm 1.54 height Precision Scope Mount.

Excellent mount with a full line of accessories available.

Hey all. I was considering getting a YHM R9 to use on my 5" 9mm PCC and 8" 300BO, but after watching a bunch of videos, it seems that everyone is saying that the R45 outperforms the R9 at everything, despite the oversized bore, and it's only an inch longer. I have a bunch of silencers to buy because I'm going to go dedicated on my 5.56 rigs because I shoot those a lot. On the other rigs, swapping cans makes sense.

Starting this thread to help fellow forum members with their custom rifle projects.

One of the most difficult aspects of building a custom rifle is not being able to get hands on with the action before you purchase it.
I thought it would be very helpful for those of us that have only been able to read about these actions to see them in action.

First up is the new American Rifle Company's Coupe De Grace chambered in 223 Wylde in an MPA Vanquish Rifle:

Second is a Terminus Apollo Lite/Ti Action in an XLR chassis:

Login to view embedded media

Takeaways about these two actions:

- The force required to open the bolt on the Terminus compared to the ARC CDG is significant.
- There is a smoothness difference; the DLC coating on the Terminus makes a difference, but there also are underlying design decisions that impact this(?)
- The ARC CDG can "bind" more than the Terminus especially when angled force is applied to the bolt
- The ARC CDG likes to be run more forcefully than the Terminus.

This isn't to say that one or the other is necessarily better, but rather to show the impact of the underlying engineering decisions on the final product.

I'd like to get the following actions documented as well:

- Impact Precision
- Kelbly
- Lone Peak Arms
- Falkor
- Zermatt Arms
- Defiance
- BAT
- Curtis

Any other ones I'm forgetting please feel free to add.

I've got dust covers from Stan at Radio Dust Covers for my AMP Annealer, AMP Press, and ChargeMaster 1500. I contacted him with dimensions on my Redding T-7 Turret Press (slightly larger than the AMP Press cover) and talked him into a custom job to make me one that would fit. He kindly obliged, and the result was fantastic ... a perfect fit. Below are the before and after photos. I'm sure he'd make one for you too, if you asked.

No compensation for me ... just shouting out someone that makes high quality products for a fair price.

Two notes ... (1) needed to be a little bigger side-to-side for the handle I use, and (b) needed to take into account the Inline Fabrication quick-change base that I use. If you don't have a handle, and you don't use a base, all dimensions will be a little different and you should measure and work with Stan for the right size.

Greetings all. I know I've seen some examples, but my Google Fu is failing me.

I'm looking for a cover to protect set ups like this while being transported in the field etc.

I've seen some heavy cloth/fabric stuff that clamshells over the RMR and optic. Our place tends to have an annoying combination of wind and fine sand.

Muchas gracias mi amigos.

Well,

For starters... Wow.... This rifle absolutely rocks! Also, this full review is ALSO posted over on 6.5creemoor forums.

I recently picked up a gun I've been drooling over for a while. A Beretta BRX1 Straight pull. It's a fully modular system. Can be swapped Right and left bolt, right or left ejection, and the barrel can be swapped to change calibers. I chose mine in 6.5 CM of course. 8 twist, 22 inch cold hammer forged barrel.

The rifle is splendidly accurate. Multiple factory loads printing a 3/4" group between multiple shooters (Albeit all shooters are active PRS competitors, so not your run of the mill Range Jockeys). We were using a Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6 as it felt appropriate on this speedy rifle.

The action is smooth, and fluid. Tighter than you would expect looking at it. Cycling it sounds like a fine pump shotgun. It uses an AR-15 style Rotating star bolt , so you DO have to run the bolt like you mean it or you CAN insert some malfunction.

The Stock is stiff, and strong. NOT your typical Injection Molded kit that comes with budget and even mid tier rifles. The stock is actually multiple pieces. The rifle has a upper and lower receiver similar to an AR-15. So the stock has a fore end and a butt stock. The grip has swappable grips available from Beretta.

The trigger is kind of adjustable? It's crisp and sharp, and works beautifully. It is not immediately adjustable but has 3 preset adjustments. You can chose heavy, medium, or light. The light setting is about 2.5 pounds and all the competition shooters than handled the rifle found the trigger to be excellent at this rifles price point.

The rifle isn't exactly light, but isn't heavy either,Listing at 7.3 pounds.

The scope rail, is attached to the upper receiver. Which to my knowledge has the Barrel threaded into it, similar to a barrel extension, like the AR-15. Seems Beretta took a huge amount of input from the AR platform. The scope is a Mil STD picatinny rail

The magazine is a 3D printed polymer, bright orange. It is a double stack design which holds 5 rounds for both standard and Magnum calibers. Someone over the pond designed a AICS mag kit for this rifle, I don't know who however. The magazine is absolutely intuitive the way it was designed. Instead of having one release tab, it has 2. And BOTH have to be released together to drop the mag. Should just about completely resolve an accidental magazine release. It's also an AR style Top load, just press the bullets in. Instead of the push down and slide in style like AICS.

The barrel is cold hammer forged. Something pretty common these days. What's NOT common is they also cold hammer forged the chamber. Ricardo Olivieri from Beretta explained to me the mandrel they use for the barrels, has a perfect chamber on it, which helps with accuracy and concentricity. My testing at the range shows it seems to work lovely. The barrel is a medium profile, and IS threaded for a Brake or Suppressor. I shoot mine with a rather nose heavy Dead Air Sandman S. It would do me well to invest in a Titanium Ultralight hunting suppressor.

Caliber change kits to the sound of a Barrel, with included scope rail and upper receiver, a magazine, and a Bolt Face, should be for sale around June, to the wallet damage of 775 beans. The whole rifle from Euro optics is 1500 beans. The barrel swap is about a 3 minute process. Ejection or bolt handle swapping is a 60 second process once you figure it out. Trigger is a modular kit that drops out and installs in seconds. Basically the only real tool you need is to swap the barrel, a 6mm Allen wrench (one included with rifle)

I hope you found my review interesting. I would love to answer any questions you may have!
