.308 headspace question

Hello everyone, first post here but been looking around for quite awhile.

I’ve done my research but still left with a question that I hope someone has some advice for.

I’ve recently put together impact 737r with a Bartlien barrel pre fit. The shop that put together the action and barrel said headspace checked good and sent me home with a barreled action.

I have not shot this gun yet as I was getting the chassis scope etc put together.

Now that this is done I wanted to get more into checking everything on the rifle and bought a set of Manson headspace gauges. It passes the go gauge no problem, however the no-go gauge fails,

looking through posts here I have seen another person mention a similar problem. When closing the bolt I feel resistance with the no-go gauge but with light pressure the bolt can be closed. It almost feels gummed up or just bordering too long. If that makes sense. The field gauge is being delivered today and I imagine it will not close with it.

I’m looking for advice on if this is acceptable or if I am setting myself up for failure. Will this affect accuracy to the point of it not being worth it? Or will it preform normally and provide shorter brass life? That I could live with shorter brass life but this was ment to be my first PRS / fun gun to get into longer ranges.

Just looking for any advice you may have. I apologize for the long winded post.

SOLD WTS/WTT Foxpro shockwave

Moved to the big city and no longer have access to areas to chase coyotes.

Factory sounds, has lithium battery pack, and electric decoy. It has seen plenty of field time so it’s got scuffs and scratches but all works as it should.

Asking $375 dropped to $350 shipped CONUS. Also have night hunting lights we could work a package deal on.

Open to trades, could use a pistol light tlr1hl or streamlight maybe, 9mm pistols, holosun 507c or 507 comp, who knows what else????

Law enforcement protecting the illegal lawn crews- with state sponsored violence

Login to view embedded media
Don’t try and expand your lawn service into new territory that is currently controlled by the illegal crews run by cartels and coyotes.
Not without paying some protection/ bribe money up front to the local constabulary
You won’t just be arrested on false charges , o no they will boot your door and let their attack dogs maul you for 15 minutes.
Gonna have to write a lot of tickets to replace the bribe revenue that protecting illegals has brought in . Like more than the $9 billion tickets bring in now

Maven RS 1.2 ... anyone have one ??

I just discovered the Maven RS 1.2 ... 2.5-15x44 ... And I am hoping to hear from others who may own one.

I have been considering the Leupold MK5 3.6-18 ... But the Maven looks quite interesting to me.

It will be mounted on a Seekins SP10 in 308 ... primarily just for range/target fun ... I do not compete.

Wondering about glass quality and eye-box ... also wondering about the tracking/turrets.

Just general thoughts from the few who may have experience with this scope.

Thanks

Suppressors 9mm Carbine Can??

Any recommendations for a serviceable and quiet 9mm can to run on 9mm PCC? Secondary use would be subsonic 300 Blackout (AR & bolt) and possibly supers if the can can handle it,357/38 special thru a lever gun. It won't be used on a pistol so a larger diameter can is fine. I don't really care about a "short" and "long" configuration either. Requirements are that its user serviceable, quiet, and some type of industry std mounting so it can be swapped around easily. I could end up using this on some lead projectiles in the future on other calibers like 38 special so it has to be able to come apart for cleaning. I can deal with a little extra length/weight. Right now I'm using a Hybrid 46 for this application.. I don't have access to hear a lot of different suppressors in use, so wondering if there might be something else out there a lot better in this role. It a jack of all trades and master of none, plus its not user serviceable. The Dead Air Wolfman seems like the defacto 9mm Sub Gun but its not user serviceable, and lots of complaints with Dead Air right now. OCL lithium and Thunderbeast Fly 9, Bowers Vers 9 seems popular as well, but again not user serviceable.

Right now my short list is:

Rugged Obsidian 9
Rugged Alaskan 360
Griffen Armament Revolution 9

What I don't know is are any of these going to be appreciably quieter than a Hybrid 46? I have an older Octane 9, and the Hybrid 46 is definately seems quieter than it. Its also considerably larger and heavier. I've tried it with a 9mm end cap and can't tell much of a difference, so I tend to just run the 46 caliber cap because its a little less gassy that way.

Any that I'm missing?

Rifle Scopes 💥2024 Just Announced💥 MARSc - Onboard VCSEL NIR Illum & Laser

Soldier Systems just announced Envision's latest product offering available to the commercial market place -- MARSc. Strictly Offensive Kit is excited to finally be able to talk about publicly since it's been in development & testing as long or longer than the MARS-Lc.

MARSc, like MARS-Lc, includes onboard ballistics, a 1550nm LRF, environmental sensors, etc., but now also incorporates a VCSEL NIR Illuminator & Laser. The Illuminator has a cleverly positioned NIR adjustment lever which takes minimal adjustment to dial the beam divergence.

Similar to what end-users experience with the MAWL-C1+, this unit provides a CLEAN edge-to-edge NIR illumination that can support extended range capability for end-users running I2 Clip-Ons such as the PVS-30, -27, or M2124-LR, as example.

We have a Youtube video that will release on the opening day of SHOT which we will post up here.

Product Link.

Availability is March/April.

More details to come.

Suppressors Mk11/13 and M110 Gas Block Gate Latch Adapter run

Hi there, SH.
So I started designing a gate latch mechanism that is the portion of the Mk11/13/M110 suppressors that affixes the can to the gas block. The overall plan was, and still is, to find a manufacturer to produce full suppressors. I have designs/models/drawings done up for the entire can itself, aside from some final cup/baffle design choices and yes, that guide pin notch will be present in the latch assembly itself. I'm an impatient bastard and would like to see something come to fruition in the next 4-6 months. This isn't a 100% promise but more of a goal so please note that I'll keep trying, even if I don't have an update here. Plan is to complete the run of Mk11/13-applicable cans and then I would go to M110-applicable cans, but this is only if/when I can get the cans done themselves.

Nothing about these suppressors would be an attempt to be clone correct or to be called anything similar to a "Knights"/KAC product. The only relevance here to KAC is that it would be a gate latch assembly and/or suppressor that can attach to/work on Mk11, Mk13, and M110 rifles. I'm a fellow autist myself who enjoys the ole cloner-boner and building, but availability and cost of these cans has plagued quite a few of us from being able to shoot our sticks suppressed so I wanted to try and provide a solution for the dudes who are always on the search for a Knights can but want to shoot quietly in the mean time. Please don't ask about cost of the suppressor as I have not a single clue or idea yet.

I have a final proof of concept I'm finishing up the machining on currently. With that being said, since getting an 07/02 set up and not wanting to make a promise on full cans timeline just yet, I'll be soon taking orders for a singular run of the gate latch assemblies themselves. These will fit mk11, mk13 and m110 gas blocks. Currently trying to decipher demand to hopefully accommodate custom thread patterns for each customer as they see fit. The unit itself would be assembled fully upon delivery to you. I'm still waiting on a few things to determine cost but I'm hoping to be around, or under, $370 for each unit assembled and delivered. If you'd legitimately like to be added to the list of individuals who are for sure interested in grabbing one, please let me know in the comments and I'll follow-up with each of you.

Thank you and Happy Holidays.
