Appleseed Sucking

I went out to the range today and at the end of the session I shot an AQT target for funsies and wow, I'm rusty.

AQT marked shots.jpeg


I still got an "expert" score but compared to the last time I shot this target I was down over 20 points and I was exhibiting bad habits, so it'll just have to be something I work on. I'm thinking about putting a red dot on the rifle, since I tend to shoot red dots better. Does anyone have any experience with these mounts?

Muzzle Device Question

I have been convinced that it is bad to put too much torque on a muzzle device. I am even more concerned about that with a bolt action long range precision rifle. So when mounting a muzzle device I typically use a low torque value and they always seem to stay in place for me. However, I want to mount a muzzle device as part of a QD system which means my hand will be putting torque on the muzzle device in both directions reapeatedly over time. I worry that will loosen the muzzle device over time and therefore it seems like a thread locker would be an approprate solution. The problem with that is people have me concerned about carbon build up in the muzzle device and it needing to be removed for cleaning periodically. If I mount the muzzle device with Rocksett, I can remove it with water and a low temperature. If I mount it with Loctite (or equivilant) I can remove it with higher temp and no water. Google says 550 degrees F. So my question then becomes, what is least likely to damage a barrel? Is it better to apply 550 degrees to it and no water or is it better to apply 212 to it and water? 550 degrees is well into temporing temps for steel. I would hate to destory or mess up the temper at the end of the rifling. 212 seems like a safe temperature for not changing the molecular structure of the steel but letting the tip of the barrel sit in boiling water seems like a lot of moisture in the barrel that could cause corrosion and that moisture seems like it would be working its way up the barrel into the action. I suppose I could plug the chamber to keep moisture out of the action. I would, of course, clean, oil, and dry the barrel immediately after boiling. So if anyone has any thoughts on this or, better yet, experience with it, I would love to know. Maybe neither option would harm the barrel. Thanks for the help.

Ghillie Suit Advice?

Hey all,

I’m new to this forum so my apologies if I’ve gotten anything wrong.

I’m based in the UK and 16 years of age, and my dream and passion is to be a Sniper in the British Army when I join up at 18 and hopefully selected.

Recently I’ve been practising cam and concealment myself and made a ghillie.
Just wondering if anyone with more experience could give any pointers or tips which I could take away and practise with?

thanks for your time,

Josh

SOLD ***Sold***Discontinued Surefire M3LT-S Dual Output LED Handheld ($155 shipped)

I have a very lightly used Surefire M3LT-S Combatlight Dual Output LED handheld. This is a throwback to 2012. I bought this brand new in January 2012 and it did not see much use.

This model has the dual output LED (70 low/800 high lumen output) with strobe mode. The lens is the TIR Fresnel version with a very focused, clean hot spot.

There are a few handling marks on the bezel edge and the tailcap, but the light is in great condition and it functions flawlessly. The lens is immaculate.

Comes in original box with manual.

Accessories 1.250” straight 6 Dasher Barrels x 2 for Impact 737

I have 2 x 6 Dasher barrels threaded for an impact 737. They’re criterion blanks chambered by KI Precision with an Alpha reamer at .130 FB. One barrel is brand new and the other has 43 rounds on it. Finished length is 26” and threaded 5/8x24. Only shot a few groups with the one used barrel and it shot as you’d expect any dasher to shoot, lights out. Picture below is some left over ammo I had from who knows when. 3 rounds, zero shift, 5 rounds off a bag and bipod. Prices below are shipped to you. Will cut a deal to whoever buys both.

New- GONE
Used- $425

Rebarrel VS New from DI or Nedved

What would you do?

  • Rebarrel my V22 with DI Precision 25" 1.25" Straight MullerWorks 13 Twist

  • New DI Precsion Vudoo 360 25" 1.25" Straight MullerWorks 13 Twist

    Votes: 7 53.8%
  • New Nedved Vudoo 360 24" 1.2" Straight Bartlein

    Votes: 2 15.4%

I currently have a 22" MTU V22 I picked up used here on RFC. It shoots great and has served me well but, it just doesn't balance as well as I'd like in my MDT chassis. I have all the internal and external weights attached to my chassis and it just barely balances forward of the magwell.

My question is, what would you do? Would you pull the MTU and have a custom (longer & heavier) barrel spun up or pick up a new barreled action from DI or Nedved precision?

If I rebarrel I'm looking at $1175+tax/ship from DI precision for a 25" 1.25" Straight MullerWorks 13 Twist. I have no clue what my old barrel would be worth? Are there better or equally as good options for less $$?

If I buy new from DI Precision or Nedved I'll upgrade to the 360 action and sell my current V22 barreled action. It's $2800+tax/ship for the DI build with the same 25" MullerWorks barrel or $2290+tax/ship with a 24" Bartlein (I assume) 1.2" straight.

Will the 24" 1.2"be enough to balance an MDT ACC elite with a honking Razor G3 on top? I'd love to shed some of the internal/external weights and run a lighter set-up that still balances. It adds ~1.4 lbs and moves it's own center of balance (not the rifle itself) forward 2". The 25" 1.25" straight add yet another pound and another 0.5" further forward.

Is the $510 price difference between DI and Nedved worth it? What am I really gaining other than the choice of a longer/heavier barrel?
