In comparison of my Tikka CTR in the stock with CTR mags versus the KRG Bravo stock/chassis with AI mags, I've noticed a bit smoother feeding in the Bravo-AI configuration. Some of that was chalked up to the alignment but the front of the mag on the CTR would also 'clip' the mouth of the case...

Ya, both 24” and with the same suppressor. I guess I’m going to try load development and see how high I can go before I hit pressure signs.

Just chrono’d my new CTR stainless 24” 6.5CM with a suppressor on. Shooting 140gr RDF at 2600ft/s with 41.7gr of RL-16. My previous CTR shot 2930ft/s, same barrel length except blued not stainless. Kind of pissed at how freaking slow this barrel is, and I only expect it to speed up maybe...

Hoping to buy 100-500 of Hornady 140 gr ELD-M .264 diameter bullets. Willing to pay reasonable price.

For mountaineering stuff, I’ve got the Patagonia R1, Arcteryx Atom LT, Cerium LT, and Alpha SV. Different combinations of that can cover anything. They’re stupidly priced, even after the 40% discounts I’ve gotten them all at. I wouldn’t use that stuff for shooting though, personally. Their...

I’d almost guarantee the metal backbone to the leg that he modified is just machined bar stock. You can see the machining marks on it as well.

The S&W M&P-10’s have been known to be sub MOA, and they offer 6.5CM. I think they come in around or under $1K. Personally I think full size cartridges in a semi-auto have way too many draw backs, particularly for long range.

Just got one, sorry for the late update. Thank you all!

Looking to buy Kestrel 5700 Ballistics or Elite, or Ballistics with firmware upgrade. Cosmetic blemishes okay. If Elite, Link capabilities would be highly preferred. Can do Venmo, or PayPal FnF or +3%.

Could be a batch where the plastic used got screwed up and really brittle, either in curing or overheated at some point. FN had that issue with a batch of the FNX-45 except too squishy squishy.

Great, thanks. That’s exactly what I was looking for.

I wanted to have the kestrel’s ballistic calculator take the LRF range input and be able to read the dope off the kestrel. Are you saying the only way is to read off the LRF that only reads the non-wind measurements off the kestrel? It uses the LRF calculator and not the Kestrels?

Hi, sorry if this is a dumb question. I have a Bushnell Elite 1 Mile Arc ConX (sheesh what a mouthful) that I got on sale a while ago. It feeds into the phone app fine but I don’t want to use my phone for ballistics, the Bushnell software is garbage, and I shoot at elevations between 5.5k’ and...

Kind of a hipster brand, but Fjallraven Vidda Pro's have been great for some of the mountaineering I've done. Breathable, durable, and fit better than any other pants I've tried.

A velocity ES of 30ft/s (which is relatively large) on a decent 6.5CM will a vertical spread (diameter) of < 5" at 1000yds. I don't think that's too bad. Even a 0.25% error on the chrono is 7.5ft/s...
