    Suppressors Can I recore a 7.62 SDN6?

    FWIW I sent my OG TiRant 45 to AAC last week for a “rebuild “. $60 and three days later it’s in the mail back to me. It was “pre-21” so not covered under current lifetime warranty. It had many, many rounds though it and while fairly clean, carbon or something got in the 3-lug system and I...

    Dillon 650 Setup Confirmation/Advice

    Just a consideration….I finally sent a few buckets of crimped mil brass out to be cleaned and swaged. It was not much but just made everything simpler…and while I have the swage it, took it off and just run the processed brass. (550 and 650). Life is much better. Coin vs...

    Ring on bullet

    Maelstrom--Without starting a big debate of the merits of a mandrel vs button/no button on the sizing die.... I have found removing the sizing die button and using a mandrel as the last sizing step during brass prep has improved SD and precision. In a very simplified explanation, consistency...

    DeLane Development Group Rimfire Ventures

    Dave, PLEASE work out a deal to buy their inventory of parts—or at least bolt piece/part components. I know I feel a little sad without any spare springs, firing pins, extractors, etc… ZY

    Gunsmithing Barrel threading not flush with the crown?

    Right....but just like any other second hand ( or new) barrel you are putting a suppressor on, check it. I.e alignment rod, look down the bore with the can on, a few into paper to be sure they are not doing something squirrelly, etc. ANY barrel can have issues. Good luck, ZY

    Gunsmithing Barrel threading not flush with the crown?

    A few do it that way, Anschutz does for one--at least on some. It's to prevent the threading from impacting the bore diameter.... It's typically a good thing...more operations, machine time, and cost. Shoot it, see how it does. ZY

    Defiance or American Rifle Company

    I have had both brands for years, one of the first Nukes, CDG, Deviants and Ruckus'. Happy with them all..... - ARC is more complex, more moving parts, pivoting bolt handle. some stock/chassis fitment probable, tuning the trigger timing with a set screw is nice....and I like Ted! -...

    Powder IN-STOCK thread

    The “std” RUAG small rifle work great as well—in my BR/BRAs. Got them for the first time about 6-7 years ago for like $99 per 5000. Bough them on a lark and was amazed at accuracy and SD. Then they disappeared until about the last 18 months. They pop up here and there and I built a nice...

    Good morning, let’s see your coffee delivery devices.

    Got this chunky ol' thing back in 2005. Push the button, grinds the beans, and out comes the good stuff... A lot of plastic on the exterior, but Easily over 40,000 cups; it gets used every day, lots of company, a few years overseas on a transformer....it's done well and makes pretty darn good...

    Pardoned Jan. 6th prisoner gunned down by police

    Just a clarification point--does not really change what went down... Huttle was released from jail July 2024 after serving his six month J6 sentence--well before his pardon. However, most of the news reads like he just got out last week, then gunned down. Also, unfortunately, he had many...
