    Spent cases damaging cerakote

    I've got 1600 rounds down the tube of my gun. Mine is a 10 times worse but still no bare metal. Ceracoated guns aren't like blued guns ride it down to the rails, the rebuild it. You'll get your moneys worth of fun if you do that. .02 you could always put tape on that spot if it really bugs you.

    12.7 x 48mm (.510 whisper)

    Try 300wsm brass if it will work it'll be cheaper offer more actions and isn't $50 for 20 pieces

    Maggie’s Whats the absolute worst conditions you'll go shooting?

    I've busted snow drifts with my truck just to get my favorite spot. Weather dictates what I'm shooting I'm done picking brass up through 2 feet of snow.

    Sav 12 LRP DBM Long Range Precision 6.5?

    Groups at 100 yards sucked but farther out they tightened up on the one I had I was going to use it as an antelope but decided I didn't like a trigger that light. Great cartridge and rifle combo, I will get another 6.5cm down the road though. Ending up trading rifle scope brass and dies for a...

    Suppressors Submitting suppressor paperwork w/o the dealer having the can in hand.

    I work the gun counter and family owned gun store were an FFL/SOT I'll help people submit form 4's when our main guy isn't there, it is against our policy to start a form 4 before we have a can on hand. Its just flat out stupid, if things go wrong your left with nothing to show for it but wasted...

    BlackOps Precision and Wild Call Customs

    I love my BOP kukri, if I had money for more or the tooling and knowledge to build one as good as they do I'd have many more. They are lasers as long as you do your part. My kukri is the one gun in the safe that if I miss with I know it was 100% me.

    375 tactical long range

    oh wjm308 my friend is on the fence wether to do a 375 ruger to run the 350 gr smk's or if he's going to do a 378 wby. If he does the ruger I'll post some info on it too.

    375 tactical long range

    I have a rem 700 long action that is chambered in a 375 ultramag and about 100 of the smk''s. Once I get back on the lathe and finish the contour on on the barrel I will bed it and start load testing. Running through a calculator supposedly 1700yds is right about the time it goes transonic at...

    Shoulder pain with angled pushups and bench?

    From personal experience, I've pushed decent weight on bench and had problems like this before. Possibly a muscle imbalance due to week shoulders, which would explain a rifle being heavy or pushups being easier to do. Rotator cuff excercises, and switch to doing military press for a while and...

    Warriors as Umbrella Holders

    Sometimes for men in uniform the unspoken word thunders the loudest. You pay respect to the office not the man who holds it. But take joy when you can respect both. In regards to shooter on the D Day memorial why would a man you wants to redistribute wealth want to pay tribute to those that...

    Sacred Ground_ This bitch needs to get a clue

    I think the reason she has a plot from reading the rules is she is the spouse of a retiree and is allowed to have plot.

    300 norma magnum but the twist may be a little off with 1:11 I'd run 1:10
