I have been hitting dog towns for the last 6 years with buddies. Running 223 Ackley. Initially I was running a Proof Competition Contour that I had a local smith open up to Ackely Improved. IT would shoot bugholes with 53 VMax at 3400 and 77 SMK at 2960 - XBR8208. I screwed that barrel up with a 6mm Cleaning rod. Yes (6mm wont go far down the barrel of a 223). Bought a Bartline CF 26" 223 and had it chambered to 223 AI. Shot ok groups, but the loss of weight lost some stability. Had my smith spin up an Ospery 1.25 straight taper in 223 AI and took that the last 2 trips. IT shot 80 ELDM's pretty tight, but seemed less so with the 53 vmax (3400) and 62 eldvt's (3200).

I need new Barrel (old setup wont fit in new stock) and am looking at Remington Varmint/Sendero contour. HERE IS THE REAL QUESTION. What rifiling do I go with. 1:7 is my thought - though I could be ok with 1:7.5 or 1:8. In PRS the 5R was the answer for consistent accuracy in a 6mm. Looking at Bartline's website they indicated short light for caliber bullets 35-60 in 224, dont really like 5R rifling....... This kind of consides with my current barrel accuracy issues (perhaps percision is a better term)

Anyone got any feedback with 4 Groove vs 5R in lighter bullets on a 223 Centerfire?

Thanks for the feedback.

Im trying to find where i can get one of those 3d printed powder covers for the autotrickler v4 that blocks powder from getting under the scale. I added a Pic that I found but he could not remember where he got it. Thanks.

Anyone have experience with both. I’d be using my rangefinder 50/50 Archery and Rifle hunting. I live in Western South Dakota with lots of wide open prarrie.
Wondering if the 10X would be too much for Archery hunting?
I have an old Leica 1600B but no Bluetooth sucks.

Just wondering everyone’s thoughts.

Only used a couple hundred rounds on a RimX. As new, great trigger.

I have a Tikka CTR in 6.5 Creedmoor and my rifle really shoots the 147 grain Hornady ELD-M bullets well. I recently bought a new box of 100 bullets and I got pretty bad results with them. My rifle typically averages < 0.5 MOA for 5-shot groups with them and the new box of bullets averaged ~0.7 MOA. It was literally like shooting a different rifle.

The bullets from the new box that shoot poorly have a more translucent ballistic tip (on the right below) and are about 4/1000 of an inch shorter in the base to ogive dimension (according to my comparator) than the bullets that shot well (see below).

Has anyone else noticed this?

Looking to buy as much of this stuff second hand to avoid paying MSRP+ tax.

AT V2 dropper with V3 trickler, V3 electronics (BT compatible for use with the app), glass cup, Area 419 trickler base. Works great as a stand alone unit, or dropper can be used with IP trickler with AT electronics OR the new IP system. I have a V3 dropper that I am using with the complete IP system (minus dropper). After I get the new IP dropper, I'll offer the V3 dropper to the buyer of this system first. If they don't want it, I'll post it in the Exchange.

The new Palantir cross department data sharing contains all manner of concerning things, but one I don't see anyone talking about is that it will be tracking every single firearm and ammo purchase and making those records available without warrant or really any justification across federal departments.

Everyone thinks this is a good idea?

Considering moving my Vortex 4000 off a gas gun and onto my spotting scope. SS has rails at the 9/12/3 o'clock to mount it so all options available.

Any general lessons learned from others who have done similar and/or things to consider?

White Oak Armament knows exactly what it takes to make award winning gas guns.
The barrel nut is important. Which is why they use a massive steel barrel nut on their builds.
Bought this for a precision AR build. Assembled the upper. Never even shot it. So I’m parting it out.

I am wanting to build a 22 arc to throw my suppressor on and shoot prairie dogs on my ranch. Everything is flood irrigated so I will be walking around and carrying the gun everywhere. I don't want to spend crazy money because the gun will get abused. I would like a higher capacity detachable mag and the lighter the better. I've never built a gun but would like to because I'm not really interested in any bolts I can find right now. What would you guys recommend?

gonna rebarrel my (shot out) single shot (short action Rem 40-X) 7mm mag to 7PRC, loaded for 180s. Current barrel is 27.5", but it has a brake. New barrel will run a TBAC Magnus RR can. I ordered a Krieger w 28" finish length, but I'm beginning to wonder if that's going to be too long with a 10.5" can on it. Shortest I would go would be 26". Going to 28" will get me ~50fps more velocity. This will be a varmint slayer (Sendero profile, heavy), so won't have to carry it anywhere

When does barrel + can on a traditional bolt gun get so long as to be a mistake?

Interesting to see if it comes to frustration or fruition.

For sale one Bartlein BB400 steel barrel blank.
29 inches long, MTU contour, 1/7.5 twist. Was backup blank for my 6mm dasher, not shooting much so it is for sale.

Price is $600.00 No long wait time and lower than new price.
