MARS Zeroing

Hey everyone,

I got a MARS, and the info sheet is pretty vague about zeroing/collimating the day optic and the WMLRF.

It says to use 100m, which I’m assuming 100y would be better if that’s what I’m shooting in. But beyond that it’s not really specific enough for my simple mind.

In using an Impact 4k previously it had the user measure HOB from the diving board and optical center line then essentially offsetting them (I think it was a 0.6 mil offset or something similar).

The MARS literature says nothing about that what so ever just. Just align the reticle with the vis laser at 100m, and aligning it with the range of engagement is even better. Kinda hilarious considering the device is for finding said range of engagement, but I digress.

Anyone have any advice or tips for how to maximize this things ability? It’s going on a field match rifle so the whole idea is less gear to mess with and accurate range and firing solutions as fast as possible.

Thank y’all.

Pistol Reloading Issue I cant figure out

So I had a bunch of 9mm loaded not too long ago. Just range ammo using some 115gr XTP that I got free from Hornaday on their free bullet promo.
Loaded up a bunch and never did anything any different than I ever have.
Had bought a new carry gun in 9mm so wanted to get to the range and shoot it.
Get there and the first mag I made about 7 rounds and the gun locks up, and I mean locks up solid.
Finally got it free and notice the round in the chamber the bullet had pushed back in the case...Kind of weird, never had it happen before.
So loaded up and shot again. Made it about 5 or so rounds and it did the same thing.
Got my other 9mm out and it happened again.
So stopped shooting and went home.
Got to looking and there were a bunch of rounds in the 100 count box that would just push back in the case.
So checked all I had done and out of about 500 rounds, about half would push back.
So checked my dies and reset them and loaded a few dummy rounds and did a push test and again the bullet would push back into the case.
Had the taper set just like the instructions said. Nothing worked right.
Probably reset the dies 5-6 different times, took them apart and cleaned them. Nothing worked.
I cant figure it out at all. I don't know if its a die issue or what.
I had some loaded from a few years ago still that were done with a RCBS die and they are all fine.

The only difference in the two is the ones I had issues with were the Hornady bullet and loaded with Hornady dies. And the others were just round nose bullets loaded with RCBS dies.


Contacted Hornady and they said I could send the dies, bullets, brass in and they would check them. But I don't understand what might be the issue.

Not new to reloading pistols as I load for 45acp, 40S&W and 357 also and have zero problems with them.

Anyone by chance have any ideas?

Badlands "Shell Shock" 5.56 - snake oil?

Hey guys, can anyone here explain the difference between the rounds in the video/links below, and normal steel case ammo? Is Badlands just loading extra-hot (maybe dangerously hot) steel-case 5.56 and trying to hype it for higher profit margins? I tried to link the Youtube video to where the host notes that the case is "nickel alloy stainless case," but how metallurgically different is that from...say...Tula or Brown Bear cases, or the steel-case 77gr OTM that AAC was selling a few months ago on the Palmetto State Armory website?

I'm also suspicious of his FGMM 77gr velocity numbers from the 10.3 barrel. He shoots a 5-round group, but shots 2, 3, and 4 are cut from the video, and the last shot is suspiciously higher than the average, while the first shot is suspiciously low. It seems like a fairly extreme spread for that ammunition.

Oh, also: Badlands wants $1.45/round for these "Shell Shock" this 77gr OTM rounds (https://badlandsmunitionsco.com/product/556-nas3-77gr-sierra-match-king/), so the statement at 0:00:15 that it is "the same price as your brass 5.56" is an outright lie. Just one more red flag to call out.

There are probably more nits to pick too, but those are the ones that jumped out at me first. Does this activate anyone else's Spidey senses? Do we have any history/reason to trust that this guy is an honest broker of information? Am I missing a major reason to buy the hype here?

AB Quantum App Issue

Has anyone experienced an issue where from the Shoot, Ballistics Calibration screen, you define/add a DSF, select "Use DSF", but it does not change the solution (elevation) to reflect the change? For instance, with my .22 at 200 yards, Elevation is 6.21. I enter the actual drop in DSF of 5.5, then hit Use DSF and the solution does not reflect 5.5. I checked the DSF table, and the entry is there. Sometimes, if I select Environment, then get temp for example it will then update correctly. Other times it won't. Seems random.

Thanks

Hornady 3-1 vs. other automated case trimmers?

I’m considering upgrading my brass trimming setup and am particularly interested in the Hornady 3-in-1 Power Case Trimmer. Its capability to trim, chamfer, and deburr simultaneously sounds appealing.

However, since I reload for 10+ rifles and regularly add more calibers, having a trimmer that doesn’t require constant purchases of separate caliber-specific attachments is very important to me.

I’d greatly appreciate hearing from reloaders who have experience with the Hornady unit:
  • How precise and consistent is it across multiple calibers without additional attachments?
  • Is caliber changeover quick and convenient?
  • Have you encountered any significant limitations or issues
Also, if you’ve used other top-end automated trimmers like the Giraud Power Trimmer or the Mark 7 Power Trim Xpress, how does the Hornady compare in terms of ease of use, flexibility (particularly regarding caliber changes), and overall satisfaction?





Thanks in advance—I appreciate your insights!
