    Suppressors Condensation causing pressure spikes?

    I had something similar to this happen to me the other day. I have a new 22 creed I did some ladder tests to find pressure with a couple powders the other day, then loaded some test loads. The loads and rifle had been in my garage where the lows at night had been getting into the teens and it...

    High end scale question

    Changing the size of the kernels changes the burn rate properties of the powder and is extremely dangerous. Don't do that.

    Barricade stop that mates to front action screw area of bottom metal

    I remember quite some time ago, somebody on here had a prototype for an add on barricade stop that fit into the front screw hole of badger bottom metal and replaced the front screw with a longer one. I can't remember the name or who was making them. Did they ever go to production and are...

    Thoughts on 22-250AI Fast Twist?

    Fast 22's are fun. I have had a couple of 22-243 through the years and one will always be my main coyote rifle. In my opinion the 80 amax is king in these guns. They have a higher bc than the Berger 80 vld, have a serious splat factor on critters, and are way cheaper when available. If it...

    Rifle Scopes New Steiner T5Xi Tactical Rifle Scopes

    Where are these built in the US? I'm guessing it is CO, but is it at the Burris facility, or does Steiner have their own facility there?

    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    First go round... Well I picked up a used 6.5 saum the other day. I went ahead and made up 5 pieces of brass from remington 7 saum last night, just to check out my process. I sized with .295 bushing, expanded in my sinclair expander die with the .264 expander mandrel, set my sinclair neck...

    Is a GAP worth more than a Beanland rifle?

    You won't be disappointed at all...

    When/Why use an Expander die?

    I use them for several operations. The most important is creating a false shoulder for proper headspace when firing new brass for the first time. I use a mandrel on size up, so .277 if I'm loading .264 caliber. Then neck down part of the neck at a time until my bolt will just close with some...

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta - Professional Marksman

    So they took the premier, tweaked a few things and raised the price $1000??? Where does that $1000 increase come from? Most of the scope design was already done, so it can't be from r&d.
