    Anyone use Hornady "Custom Grade" dies?

    I use the CGND to load .223 for my AR. They're inexpensive, but of good quality, especially at that price point. I added the micrometer adjuster to the seating die since I switch between loading 62gr FBHP AND 77gr SMK. The floating seating stem does a much better job of lining the bullets up...

    pistol grip tripod mounts

    Aha, so the threads are incompatible, you just need to use an adapter. Thanks. I prefer the Manfrotto grip design to the Slik Af1100e design, but the Slik tripod is working just fine for me. Do you have a part number/source for the bushing you used?

    Gunsmithing PTG Bolt Problem

    Their customer service people, while polite, have been useless in terms of answering questions on the few occasions I tried to order parts myself.

    Anyone seen these bullets?

    Rebated BT bullets are a real thing. Match grade generally means tight production controls, a high level uniformity, low variance from item to item, i.e. It's good shit. If their claims are true, all the bullets should have characteristics that result in a very low standard deviation. Weight...

    DIY flush cup install

    Does anyone have a part number for these? I can't seem to find them just by searching for flush cups or QD sockets.

    Cleaning a new .22 rifle?

    So, from what I've read, the .22 caliber rod, jag, and brushes I already have are oversized for my .22LR's bore. Do I just buy a set in .20 caliber to clean the new rifle? P.S. The rifle is a CZ455

    CZ 455 Ultimate tacticool is now 100% with its new trigger guard (M5!) :).

    I am definitely going to need a new bolt knob on my 455, that tiny little factory knob is not going to cut it.

    Nosler 6.5 Creedmoor Brass: Is it worth the $$

    I saw a YouTube video from a guy who cuts the tops off small base dies and uses a hydraulic press to force a case all the way through. The claim was that it would squeeze the primer pocket back down and extend brass life if that was your only problem.

    We are our own worst enemy!!!

    These asshats are a bad image for gun owners. The idiot who shot his nephew in the head trying to show off his laser'd pistol is a bad image for gun owners. Youngsters learning marksmanship and responsible handling of firearms at Appleseed. Women learning how to create space before they draw...

    Lo and behold, a MATEN build begins!

    http://www.snipershide.com/shooting/snipers-hide-semi-auto-rifles/195906-mega-arms-maten-mkm-w-mega-match-barrel-range-report.html Looks like the photos with the groups are gone. I'll need to break it out and shoot some new groups, I haven't taken the ARs out much lately.

    6.5 Creedmoor Brass Forming

    Depends how much money your time is worth. I just finished grad school, so plenty of free time, and the brain stimulation from trying out something new and learning a few things in the process has value, too.

    I miss Brunhilda

    Took it out for a spin. Shooting off the bench with Atlas bipod and a rear bag. Had to make a few adjustments to LOP and cheek rest height along the way. I'm going to need a lot more practice before I can show up to an F-class match. Group 1 was holding on the bullseye, then different holds...

    What is the best rimfire scope

    I just picked up a Primary Arms 4-14x44 mil/mil FFP at a discount. It was sold by PA as having some black spots in the eyepiece if you looked at a certain angle. Considering the significant discount off the retail price, I decided to give it a try. The rings (UTG 30mm dovetail mounts) and...

    We are our own worst enemy!!!

    Can we just take a minute and be proud of Mini-Mall-Ninja there with the AK that's bigger than he is? Look at that little douchenozzle, he's got his finger straight and off the trigger. Holy guacamole, that's an amazing accomplishment! Let's not forget to mourn his buddy there, with the...

    Memorial Day Sales?

    What sales and discounts are coming up? I'd like to pick up a few things like new ear pro, a few reloading accessories, etc... My main purchase will be a Vortex Sparc II, so I'm hoping to take advantage of the deals to get a good price on it.

    6.5 Creedmoor Brass Forming

    You've absolutely got to turn the necks. After you've necked down and bumped the shoulders, the neck walls of your new cartridge are going to be much thicker. Poisson's Ratio of strain, and mass conservation, some shit like that. Anyway, neck turn down to an appropriate thickness. Sinclair and...
