I have an additional (I posted an additional ad about 2 hrs. ago for a non-folder) used MPA BA Comp Chassis in tungsten (color). This one is a folding chassis but the joint is super tight, no movement whatsoever when you mount/dismount the gun. This chassis has been used for a few years but is in excellent shape. It has the aluminum MPA enhanced bag rider, full front weight kit (see pics), front spigot mount, and mag block insert (for more positive magazine seating). Rem 700 SA Right Hand. $600 firm, I'll be at the Dec 15 K&M match, or buyer pays shipping. Thanks for looking!

Want to buy a factory Sig mcx tacops 300 blkout . Not interested in built replicas. Closer to new the better. Let me know what you have I have cash ready to move on the right deal.

I've been using humidity packs in my powder for about 2 years. Was at range the other day, shooting 50 BMG reloads, 2865 fps, SD<10, all good just like usual. Used up that batch, opened a new batch of reloads (marked on the label "RH 49%), velocity fell almost 100 fps average, and the SD was ALL over the place. I'm like WTF, tore them apart when I got home, the charges were all correct. Then I noticed the date of reloading: 7/6/2023. Here's one POSSIBILITY of what happened.

There were 4 humidity packs in the 8# jug of RL50 I used last summer and am still using. If I put them in the new jug when I started the reloading session, out in my garage with 100 degree temperatures, the 49% humidity packs would start releasing moisture to get to the 49% RH. Moreover, if it had not sat/mixed long enough, the powder may have uneven humidity, with granules close to the packs having more moisture until full mixing occurred. Who knows what the distribution of humidity was if it was inadequately mixed by the time it got into the Superspiller hopper.

I had not paid enough attention to what happens to absolute water content when temperature changes at a constant relative humidity. The water content goes up something like 5x or more if you go from 50 degrees to 100 degrees at a constant RH. See: https://brownell.co.uk/datasheets/basics_humidity.pdf

I'm not SURE this was the source of my problem, but I realized the humidity packs could be a HUGE mistake if you have temperature changes in your powder (I store mine in the basement and reload in the garage which varies markedly in temperature throughout the year).

If I want the water content of the powder to remain constant, I have to keep the temperature constant when those packs are in place. In my basement it's almost always 60-70 degrees year round. Humidity packs in the powder are fine down there, but if I take the powder to the garage in summer, the packs are going to immediately (and unevenly) start releasing moisture since the hotter air in the container can contain more moisture at a constant RH. Conversely, if I go out in the garage and it's below freezing, the RH in the container will go up, and the packs will start removing moisture from the powder. So I should always remove the packs prior to reloading, and replace for storage, is what I'm thinking. At least if the ambient reloading temperature is significantly different from where the powder has been stored.

The other thing is I'm going to start recording both the temperature I reloaded at and the RH of the powder (measured by Kestrel drop) at the time of reloading.

Finally, the amount of water in an 8# jug is pretty minuscule, so even large relative changes in water content do not cause big absolute changes. However, all the "experimental" evidence guys have posted seems to suggest it does make a difference.

Interested in any thoughts especially from engineering/physics/chemistry types.

Here is a link that allows you to calculate water content based on temperature and RH: https://www.lenntech.com/calculators/humidity/relative-humidity.htm

Looking for the following:

I’m currently running a SWFA 10x42, but I’d like to replace it with a variable. My number one priority is durability/reliability. I’d replace it with a SWFA variable, but I don’t know what the deal is with them, they’re selling everything off and saying new things are coming, but without any updates or timeline, I’m moving on.

I’d LOVE to get a Nightforce, but I’m a dad with a family and saving up for one will take some time. I could say fuck it and buy one now, but that would mean no ammo budget and no shooting for a bit…that’s not an option, I’ve been really enjoying improving my skills with a rifle and view this hobby as therapy.

I just purchased a Arken EP5 5-25 based on the feature set and Japanese glass, but now I’m second guessing that decision based on some mixed reviews. It hasn’t shown up yet and I have 30 days to return it if it shows up and doesn’t seem like a good value with solid build quality. I’m normally not a Chinese scope guy, I owned multiple Leupold VX3 HD’s with the CDS turrets, but they just didn’t track well and drop tests even on the higher end models caused me to completely loose faith in those scopes. That led me to SWFA, although the glass is no where near the quality of my Leupold, I trust the scope in the field.

I’m really hoping the EP5 build quality is legit, but I’m open to additional suggestions.

Use: Hunting/Field matches/Local PRS (not looking to compete to be competitive, just improve skills)

Rifle:
Bergara B14 Wilderness 6.5 Creedmoor
Magpul Pro 700 Lite chassis

Wants:
Durable/reliable
FFP
Mil reticle/turrets
4-16 minimum, 5-25 maximum

Budget: $600’ish

Thanks in advance for any suggestions or feedback on the Arken quality for my use! I will ultimately save up/use next years bonus for a better scope, but I want to keep shooting, so simply saving up and not purchasing a place holder is not an option. Also…the SWFA 10x42 has already been donated to my daughters 22lr, so sticking with that is not an option either.

Selling my MDT xrs howa 1500 chassis. Comes with all the original accessories but comes with the enclosed forend, forend weight, rear buttspacer weight, gray ops cnc weights and a wiebad cheek pad.

Ive got plenty of feedback. Asking $700

First post on the hide in many years

I've been asked about, and explained my cleaning method more times than I can count so I finally made this video about it.

The video isn't necessary to explain the cleaning method, it's just 2 cycles of 30 strokes with a tight fitting patch of gray/blue JB bore paste on a jag. The real reason for the video is explaining WHY I've converged on this cleaning method, after years of experience doing life-cycle tests on barrels and competing in Palma, FTR and ELR.

In addition to cleaning the barrel, abrasives also smooth it. This smoothing is a major hedge against bullet failures so if that's happening to you, or you're concerned about it, maintaining your barrels with abrasive cleaning can mitigate the failure issue.

I've been enamored with shooting subsonic suppressed lately. I've also been enjoying shooting with my 12 year old son and it's great if neither one of us is making a bunch of noise. I know it's early but what are your thoughts about the cartridge, do you think it's worth spending time and money getting a nice action/barrel, or would there not be enough benefit and is the cartridge more suited to a less expensive mass produced rifle?

I know the cartridge was designed for ar-15s, but I'm more interested in a bolt gun. I have a 6 arc bolt and having tons of fun with it.

Are people running the mandrel from SAC in their dies? If so what is the best way to determine size?

I currently only run custom Whidden bushing dies and no mandrel (I own mandrels for new brass) without any issues but since the SAC is one step I'm more open to the idea of running a mandrel but want to know what others are doing with their SAC dies in terms of mandrel vs no mandrel.

This is about SAC mandrels only. I'm running it in 7 PRC
