    Official (DTA) SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Thread

    75 ELD and 25 grains RL 15 loaded to 2.490” in Hornady brass. Full case, almost max Load. Would be over max in Lapua case I’m guessing. 2950-3050 depending on factors Including temperature, which I don’t sweat because it’s an 800 yards and in gun.

    Official (DTA) SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Thread

    You may not think its a good reason but its a reason and the reason is so if you have a scope on say your AR your SRS and your HTI, you have the same rail 0-degree. That way your zero will be reasonably close when you move between platforms. If you had one that was 20 one 40 and one zero it...

    Whidden Die Disappointment

    The full refund without questions made it right. Ill stick with my Viersco dies for now until somebody else makes a 375CT bushing die or Ill get one from WTC. Ordered a redding for my 338.

    Your custom barrel/build don't shoot. Next step?

    I once read about an experienced BR shooter who said "If it don't shoot after 100 rounds, I quit wasting my time and get another barrel." I have thought about that a lot over the years as I have tried numerous custom builds and on many occasions spent HUNDREDS of DOLLARS in ammo trying to find...

    Suppressors If going for a suppressor today would you still go through a trustee?

    The only way to make a trust reasonable now is to take a brand new or existing trust with only you as grantor and trustee, and a beneficiary as a non-responsible person. Put things in there for several years. When you decide you want to "share" your stuff, add a trustee, and stop adding NFA...

    Range Report Desert Tech HTI - 34" TS Customs 375CT - 352g CEB Range Report

    Jamison sucks but I really like Bertram and Peterson. I honestly prefer the Bertram bc 2 gr more capacity I always FL size big magnums bc not bumping shoulder can cause false pressure signs. I bump .002 on Viersco FL dies I dont think anybody even makes 375 neck dies. You can reduce the...

    Sig50 / Tac50 ?

    Like AIAW, I had a TAC50, from 2010-2013. I agree with EVERYTHING he said, esp with how it gets old and worsens your shooting. The recoil with the TAC50 brake is aweful, I had to replace it with a AR-50 brake, which works better, but adds 4# and 4" OAL to the thing. My Tac 50 broke a Vortex...

    Suppressors Trust attorney

    A lot of us paid $600+ 10 years ago The benefits of a trust are much less now You don't want a minor on an NFA trust, it has NFA specific provisions. Don't want them as a beneficiary either. How can a minor take over possession of your machine gun in the unfortunate event of your death...
