Tikka T1X

I know they are not out yet, but I'm looking forward to getting the details on it. Maybe the 455 has a little competition. You may not have a barrel that is super easy to replace, but MAYBE the barrels on these will be as good as Tikka's centerfire rifles and negate the need to replace it. None the less I'm looking forward to it!

Post up any real intel you may have!!

Hornady high speed 3 in 1 case trimmer

What's everyone's thoughts on the new case trimmer by Hornady? Looks eerily similar to another design. I'm liking the micro meter adjustment though. Thinking about pre ordering one to try it out.

6 ARC Gas Guns

Looking to start a 6 ARC gas gun load page. Post as much info as you can. I will start.
18” craddock 7 twist
58gr vmax .010 off lands
30.3gr of benchmark
CCI 450 and Hornady brass
3280 fps with single digit sd and consistent 3/4 moa.
Going to start playing with 105 hybrids and varget. These will be jumping about .130 to fit in the mag.

For the Love of God, GI Joe and John Wayne.... cleaning and abrasive cleaners

Guys..... This has been beaten to death but you have to watch how your using abrasive cleaners! Here is a 223 barrel with 800 rounds on it. Cleaned after every 75 rounds fired. I know the pitting is from a chemical reaction but I didn't get the whole story. It was cleaned approximately 10-12 times from what the shooter told us.

What I did get was the shooter was using ThorroClean. This is a cleaner made and mixed with Iosso Bore Paste! So sum it up how ever you want.... it's an abrasive cleaner. The lands and bore are completely damaged. The lands are all rounded over, damage to the muzzles crown as well as polished and rounded over. In the first 2" of the barrel from the chamber a brush with the cleaner was run either by hand or with a drill on it. You can see the drag marks going over the tops of the lands and down in the grooves. This isn't from when the barrel got made. My guess is the shooter was worried about the carbon ring build up in the throat. Also notice the gouges running down the bore on tops of the lands and grooves.

Watch what your doing please.

The last picture for a reference for comparison is also a 223 Remington barrel. This was a accuracy test barrel I got back from the bullet maker. It quite shooting at 14,000 rounds! Up to that point it held .5moa or better at 200 yards. This is a saami spec. 6 groove barrel (not 5R rifling). Only one guy in the ballistic lab is allowed to clean the barrel with JB bore compound when they start getting a carbon ring built up. They only use the JB when the need is felt to use it. For an approximate number of cleanings on the accuracy test barrel it got cleaned 140 to 200 times.

Later, Frank

Hey Frank,

Hey Frank, staff.
TresMon here. I've been a 'Hide member forever. As in way back on the original platform.

I'm eat'up with medical issues, slowly losing everything & literally becoming homeless is on the horizon.

I recently launched an emergency GoFundMe. I don't know much about such. But is their an area of the forum (Bear Pit?) that would be permissable to post the link of my fundraiser? Or an even more efficient way to get the info to members for their individual consideration l?

Just asking straight up. I don't want to get in trouble or cause trouble. I don't want to be homeless + ill either.
Let me know & thanks,
Tres

Action Camera recommedations

I am looking for action camera recommendations primary being used to make YouTube videos and such of gun / shooting demonstrations. Not sure if this is the correct area for this post but if it's not I am sure someone will let me know lol. Would a GoPro be good for this? Also to record things like PRS matches etc. Having a slow motion option, high video/picture quality and excellent zoom I think would be necessary.

Hello!

Hi everyone! Greetings from Ukraine.
I’m fairly new to shooting, but I’m steadily developing as a marksman.
With my JP ASF20 (AR-15 platform), I can confidently hit various targets out to 600 meters.


I really enjoy learning — mostly through videos and reading forums (this is my first one!).
Looking forward to growing with the community, sharing what I can, and picking up a lot of new knowledge.


Wishing you all a great day and good shooting!
