    Angle shooting

    I always want 3-5 ways to skin the cat. While gizmos and techy stuff make life easy, I want to know how the tecky program was written. If I can duplicate it with the math, that is all I need to do. I don't plan on taking an abacus and slide rule into the field. If I can prove the tecky gizmo to...

    Angle shooting

    OK, I think I have it. Range finder gives me hypotenuse and also shot angle, so I should be able to do the math and come up with actual distance gravity pulls on the bullet. Thanx. I know a ballistic calc is the easy button, but I like to know the long hand too. Are there any apps that can...

    Am I just trash with an AR?

    Glad to see I'm not the only one. I can shoot a bolt just fine, an AR = if I'm under 1.5" I'm ecstatic!! I can hand my AR and my load to a buddy and he can shoot .7" with it :cry: .

    Need help setting up 300 Blk

    I don't know the barrel maker and port size. A buddy gave this too me with a bunch of Black Rain parts/receiver and asked if I could put it together. He was then killed in a M/C crash. I can measure the port, but that is as far as I can go. I just ordered a Banish 30 for this and other guns.

    Need help setting up 300 Blk

    Thanx guys. I have a 16" Whisper, but this is my first path down the short barrel pistol brace road. It will be subs 100% of the time, if I want to go super I'll reach for the 16". I just e-filed for the can - I'm guessing 10 weeks into a trust

    Need help setting up 300 Blk

    I am setting up a 10" pistol in 300 BLK. It will shoot subsonic EXCLUSIVELY. 1) What weight buffer do I need??? 2) Do I need an adjustable gas block?? 3) what else am I forgetting?? This is a DI set up, not a piston.
