    StaBall HD vs H1000

    I've only used it in 7mm PRC, but Staball HD didn't really live up to the billing for me in terms of velocity.

    6 ARC Gas Guns

    Did you get the black oxide coated overruns? I wonder if they'd shoot with the same loads as the uncoated variety. That's a good deal, I shot the regular uncoated variety some as well as the 90gr TGKs, but availability was pretty variable. They did shoot well though, and are supposed to be on...

    AR suppressor problem

    In that situation, what I've done is tune the rifle to run optimally suppressed and run it suppressed all the time. I'd assume the OP isn't using a x39 AR as a go to war type rifle, but rather for hunting or something like that. I also like SA bleed off gas blocks, in my experience it's been...

    AR suppressor problem

    You keep seeing posts about it because it's absolutely an issue that lots of folks have and are able to easily sort out. Your assertion in this and the other thread that over gassing cannot exist in an AR, isn't an issue and can't cause feeding issues is just plainly incorrect from a mechanical...

    What upper receivers are you guys using to get a good thermal fit?

    So thermal fit is snipe hunting, but green loctite is worth doing? That doesn't really make sense to me? I don't see any benefit to leaving a loose fit between the extension and the receiver cylindrical surfaces, so I use 620 to bed or a thermal fit. Thermal fit is easy if you have a receiver...

    "Gents, would you say you're 'in the business' of building these 50-100 rifles... In a manner of speaking"

    What upper receivers are you guys using to get a good thermal fit?

    Thanks for the heads up on BKings Mod 0 being thermal fit, have one and one of their 13" handguards on the way for my next build.

    300 Norma Magnum - StaBALL HD Powder Experience and Barrel Erosion Concerns

    I've had kind of similar results with the Staball line, 6.5 is one of my go to powders, especially for Creedmoor, Match is also a good addition to the stable, but HD has not been stand out for me where I tried it in 7 PRC.

    7mm PRC

    I've had good luck with Ramshot Grand, velocities up there with RL-26, temp stable and available. Staball HD was ok, but didn't really live up to the billing for me, unlike Grand.

    What is ATF wait time for a suppressor?

    Had an individual E-form 4 submitted midday 3/19 and approved first thing in the morning 3/21.

    Xero C1 Pro - v3.30 update

    It would be nice to get some ability to organize, filter or sort sessions in the app beyond just scrolling through the mega list.

    6mm arc sbr/ pistol?

    Here's some Chrono data from a KAK 12.5" ARC barrel I used to have. Couldn't get the accuracy on that barrel within what I would call acceptable standards and KAK let me return it. I did kill two deer with the 103gr load (developed for my 18" ARC), and it worked great. The whole package made for...

    Best All Around Supressor(titanium)

    I've used ASR, Plan-A and Xeno, of the three Xeno is my favorite and is what I've switched everything to. Plan-A is fine too, but I had issues with my adapter coming loose from the can when I was trying to remove the can from the muzzle device. The left-hand threads of Xeno solved that for me...

    Help overwhelmed first thermal

    Don't know if you've already bought or not, but I have a very similar use case, a tad less land, all wooded, most shots in the <100 yd range, but longest possible around 240yds. Also have coyotes yipping it up in the back and on adjacent farms. I wanted to stick in the ~$1k range and wound up...
