    Suppressors Lipsey's Rugged Obsidian45 or Lipsey's Gemtech Lunar-45 Suppressor

    I'll have to get a pic, the lugs on it wallowed out. It was always locked on properly.

    Same set up on the HK, pos 1 seemed the most consistent. Yeah, Yeah, shoot more rounds, bigger sample-I have I don't take pictures of everything all the time.

    Suppressors Lipsey's Rugged Obsidian45 or Lipsey's Gemtech Lunar-45 Suppressor

    The actual Rugged 3 lug mount, it's cheaply made--of aluminum?? I know how to mount a 3 lug and the rugged failed, used on an SP5 and BT. I switched to a KAW Valley after doing some reading a couple three years ago and haven't had a single issue with those two guns. I also found that "clocking"...

    My answer is if you have a rifle that needs one, settle that first. Having said that, the Obsidians are nice, never an issue, easy to take apart and clean, etc. If for some reason you need a 3 lug-do not get the Rugged one, go KAW Valley.

    Are match barrels worth it for a “new to precision” shooter?

    Wait until you start with ammunition! It's almost the same, You might get lucky and something like Center X shoots better than Midas or Midas +, of course it's barrel and lot dependent. Then is it less likely to have fliers or a lower number of them and for $10 a box more you get 25 x verses 23...

    Are match barrels worth it for a “new to precision” shooter?

    Fairly simple-if the intended goal is precision-spend the money as you would most likely spend more in ammo trying to get the cheap one to find that magic load. Doubt, frustration, waste of time and resources, it's not worth the aggravation.

    Number of shots to establish zero

    Funny when a new shooter doesn't quite understand that part, of course one needs a combination that can actually produce results to make that choice.

    Number of shots to establish zero

    Everyone tracks data differently, book, apps, head, etc. One idea if is using paper is to have the same backer, makes marks to outline the target, use the same target and then after x times see what 10 cold/clean cold bores look like, what two separate 5 round groups look like, etc. Start with...

    Number of shots to establish zero

    Simplest way if you have a rifle to where you can remove the bolt/bolt carrier, etc. Rest it, look through the barrel to center an object as you do your best to treat the chamber, neck and barrel as "ghost rings" without moving anything, look through the scope and adjust to "see what the barrel...

    High quality soft bag?

    If needing a sizable and potentially reoccurring order, I would contact London Bridge Trading or even Armageddon Gear to have one made to spec, limit colors unless the maker wanted to carry "over runs"
