Another thread was batting Y/T around so I ask.
I find myself watching it at times for info on things I'm interested in, but like some of the videos I see of my life's work, Resip Engines & EPG/SG (Electrical Power Generation & Switch Gear) there is a lot of B/S on there. Some of the B/S is detectable from the gate, some takes a few seconds/minutes to grasp they have no clue to what their trying to convince you they are an expert in/on.

I'm sure you have found this to be true in your area or work/experience as well. So the question is why is it the Y/T B/S'ers always have a bigger channel (followers/views) than those who know what their talking about? In talking to long time friends in the trades w/different back rounds, ie welding, machining, fab'ing they see the same thing? Is it because of presentation or what?

The other thing I find that pisses me off when I stumble on it is those who do reviews hawking shit that is just that, from my area of life's work. I'm sure you see that as well. Be interesting to have a sticky about Y/T'ers that are FOS & putting out bad info to folks who are looking for info about just getting started in XYZ.
I never signed on to Y/T & never will, but think some kind of off channel fed back might make some of them think before being an expert for clicks views & money, via total B/S content they spew.

Hey guys,
Selling a mounted but UNFIRED Bartlein carbon fiber barrel with surefire 3 prong. Pulled this off a brand new action that I’m repurposing. Asking 900 with the SF. Ready to be mounted and timed to a new action, should be a fantastic shooter.

Hello I'm thinking to mount an Anschutz rail instead of the actual Picatinny for an budget upgrade of my factory synthetic stock.
This because a majority of the F-class FTR bipod are mostly availlable with Anschutz fitting.

I'm planning to make a pocket on the place of rail mount, but the inner of the forehand are empty, some sort of ribbing are formed for a minimum of rigidity.

A this point your advice for one newbee are to mount an external Anschutz rail screwed and glued with JB weld or make the inner of forehand full of epoxy resin and make an external pocket for the rail?

Thanks

I am using new Hornady brass and after firing it once, there are lots of scratches and marks on the brass from neck to the rim. There are lines running along side of brass for the entire length of the brass. Rim and bolt face side of brass both have significant marks. My gun is gassed properly, I am using adjustable gas block and the brass is ejected at 3.30-4 o'clock. I have attached pics of the brass, can someone tell me if this is normal for brass used in 308 AR-10 and if not, what I need to do to reduce marks on the brass?

just got1 at a local show,marked 223. asked an ffl holder that i know has pretty deep knowledge. he said that he had done a deep dive on a t3x that he had. he found that if the gun (his tikka) has CIP dimensions that 5.56 in 223 marked is fine as the CIP dimensions are a bit longer and thus safe for 5.56.
question is does anyone know about the howa dimensions CIP vs SAMMI. my guess,not knowing,is howa maybe SAMMI. they make guns for US market (weatherby vanguard). but they sell more guns in AUS,i believe. would assume CIP as AUS is Brit influenced largely. so,pretty much no clue.
if anyone knows where or how to search that,LMK. i tried but weak googlefu.
getting the chamber cut to Wylde is also a option. thanks for any clues.

Took my R700 223 Wylde with Bartlein HV 28" 8T and .080" FB out this morning and did a quick 9 shot ladder at 300 yards. Get an idea of pressure/velocity and find the upper node.

80.5g Bergers, approx .020 off, COAL 2.485", N540, Rem 7.5 and 2x fired Lapua brass. Shoulders bumped .002" and neck tension also .002"

It left me with more questions than answers, and didn't really show anything definitive in my opinion. The overall group wasn't bad, about 1 MOA for all 9 shots, but no real correlation to velocity/impacts either. Also, the jump in velocity of 70fps from 24.1 (2876) to 24.3 (2946) had me thinking I was around max, but there were no obvious signs of pressure anywhere. The jump from 24.3 to 24.5 was pretty normal again at 35fps. Not sure if I should creep up in .1g increments to find max with the velocity I'm already at, but I have a feeling there might be a node at that 24.5 (2980) area.

I also had something super odd happen and I can't explain it or figure it out. While trying to get my seating depths figured out, I had 3 extra rounds all loaded at 23.5 Only difference was 1 was really short at 2.4" and the other 2 were pretty dang close to where they were suppose to be at around 2.480". I figured I'd use the shortest one for a cold bore and see where it impacted at 300 and get a good zero to go off. Velocity read 2811fps. Ok no problems there. So I shoot the 9 shot ladder and the 23.5 charge showed 2829fps. OK still doing fine. Finished up the ladder and still had those extra 2 cartridges loaded at I decided to use them up on the 500 yard gong and get some more numbers from the garmin. I was shocked when the 1st read 3063fps. No hard bolt lift, cases look fine, primer looked fine, so I shot the last one and it was 3053fps. Again, no obvious signs of pressure. But my main concern and question here is how on earth was there a 225fps discrepancy in velocity with those 2 shots at 23.5 from the previous 2 at 23.5? I individually weighed each charge on a balance beam and I'm certain the Garmin is ok.

I was shooting for 2950fps with no pressure, as that seems about right for an 80g bullet and 28" barrel. I'm thinking 3050fps is definitely over pressure, even though I'm not seeing the tall tale signs. And I'm not even totally sure what to think of those 2 rounds that hit 3050fps at that low charge weight anyway.

Anyway I'd love to hear your guys thoughts and where you would go from here? Still better than a good day at work, but still a little frustrated also...

Have two other of these on competition rifles, had ordered this one for a hunting rifle but then I tried one of those on my 6CM hunting rifle and while it helped I don’t think I’ll use it for hunting. Love them on my comp rifles though.

This one has not been removed from the bubble wrap, brand new. Currently back ordered. Save the wait and a few bucks.

Hello all! Did a search and couldn't find anything really about this. Have KRG Bravos for three of my rifles (PRS/NRL/.22) and love them. For reference, I've been using the Bravo chassis for over 6 years and have no intentions to change but I've consistently had a hot spot on my middle finger from a part of the design right between the trigger guard and the grip. Because if how the action screw seats, the gap where the screw goes in lends itself to a couple pressure points. Normally I just wear a band-aid to help prevent the issue, but a more permanent solution would be nice. Pictures below to show the area in question.

I'm sure I can finagle a solution, but wanted to see if anyone else has this issue and what they may have done to alleviate it. Thanks in advance!

I am selling this near-NIB B-14 HMR in 6.5 Creedmoor (Left handed). It comes with a 20 MOA Nightforce Scope Base which has been blue locktited and torqued to spec using Fixit Sticks. The barrel has exactly 45 rounds through it, and was meticulously broken in and has never been overheated.

I bought this rifle to have a lighter action for Mammoth this year, but I ended up building a full custom rig instead (classic).

It shoots extremely well and was easily sub 0.7 MOA with factory Hornady 140 grain ELD-M.

Comes with most of the original box (I cannot find the sleeve), the factory ten round mag, and of course the NF scope base. Price is 900 shipped.

Let me know if you have any questions! Thanks for stopping by.

Not sure why this is so hard for me to figure out but I cant seem to lock the diopter. The instructions say that after you get your diopter where you want it grasp it and hold it still while you rotate the lock ring clockwise (this puts the lock ring up against the magnification ring). I torque it down then go to move the diopter and it's not locked at all, it spins freely changing the diopter without moving the magnification. ...I don't get it.

If I spin the lock ring counterclockwise putting it up against the diopter it seems to lock it as one unit
