I'm sure I will! I still plan on leaving my Precision Armament M11 on the 7mm, and I'm sure I'll learn to hate it (even though the recoil reduction with that brake is absolutely great). Reasonable, although like Rusty suggested, I'll probably get tired of that and have dedicated rifle...

So I've been reloading for roundabout a decade and a half, and consider myself reasonably successful based solely on the fact that I have not sustained any substantial injury caused by my home manufactured ammunition. Having recently submitted paperwork for some suppressors, I am reevaluating...

Looks normal. Shorties do wear them out a little faster. Might be worth a quick message to AAC but to me it looks about like average.

Agree. If you are developing a load for your rifle that you will use for the life of your barrel, and you do that based off even 5 round groups, that's a big decision based on a sample size of about 0.0016%. More holes mean more data.

Hey, I've learned and moved on from that shit, ok?!? Lol. BTW, I did end up picking up that Sig. It's like I'm fucking cheating, now!

Perfectly normal for some scopes. Nothing to worry about.

Welcome to the forum!

Not sure what you mean by "maintaining the integrity of the cases I'm reloading". Please elaborate. Seems like the operative decision you've made is the adjustable gas block. With that you'll be able to tune your gun pretty well for with/without can and carrier weight. There's not a whole...

So it sounds like you want to make a bolt action pistol, but with a stock, then? Whatever you build, send pics.

Lol, thanks for all the help, guys!

Personally, I don't crimp anything unless it's going in a gas gun. If it is, then it gets a little crimp - never a lot. A little crimp goes a long way.

Even the .308's up here do alright. High altitude shooting spoils you, that's for sure, I convinced him that a .308 is a good place to start because there's just less shit to have to develop on your own, since it's the ol "gold standard." i.e. How you read and correct for wind is all based...

I do love that Lee taper crimp...
