I'm guessing the setup you posted on the 24'th didn't work?

Nice.. I've been meaning to pick some of those up and give them a run

there would not be thread locker on there no. Un-suppressed AR's use crush washers behind their brakes which you should replace every time you put the brake back on. I don't know if savage uses those or shims but I'd bet it's a crush washer. If it was shims it would index to the same place...

it will work on any barrel providing there's enough exposed length of it (as per my AR troubles) but that's because it's getting a rock solid clamp around it. Look at your first picture and look on that one where you have the strap in the second pic. There is no consistent surface there on the...

this isn't the only rifle I can't get this chrono to work on. I run my handguards on AR's to as close to the front as possible to just behind the brake, so if there isn't enough exposed barrel you can forget it too

because it's not secure and tight enough. The part of the brake you have it wrapped around is a completely inconsistent surface, entirely unlike wrapping it around a section of barrel. Once the rifle fires the unit will shift and move up or down

LOL. Confident based on what? I said it before, it will not work with this particular brake on this rifle. Photo one will not register anything but not damage anything either. Photo two will also not register anything and potentially shred the strap and who knows how interesting things...

It isn't going to work with either of those. Ask me how i know :) Looks like you have a savage 338LM? I'm just waiting until a can arrives. Only other thought I had but did not try was removing the brake for a few shots to get the velocity pinned down

was interested until I saw this. pffffft

Sir, maybe I completely misinterpreted your question. My point is how is something that is only an ergonomic feature of the rifle itself going to have any affect on "lethality" whatsoever. Lethality is a function of the bullet and it's terminal ballistics upon the target. WTF am I missing...

I may be mistaken but I think what he meant was that for the amount of extra money those features cost he would just far prefer to do those tasks manually

the feedback on the terrapin (PLRF05) seems to actually be better than the PLRF10. Anyone with experience on both able to chime in on that? For just a little over 1/2 the price of the 10 it seems you are actually getting better performance with the one exception of being NV compatible.

I can't believe this is even a thread on the hide. I mean, really??? Just the presence of this is an embarrassment to the entire forum

couldn't agree more. I'm not even selling any ammo currently but I couldn't possibly find any way under the sun to care about anyone who didn't have the foresight to see any of this coming - especially after last October and then AGAIN after December, and now whines like a little kid that they...

mesh covering on the helmet... please make me aware
