    FIRST TIME SHOOTING A 50 CAL

    I don't have any personal experience with big bore suppressors, but for your 30 cal and 6.5mm needs its hard to beat Thunderbeast Arms (aka TBAC). Unless you really want separate cans for each caliber, you can just get a 30cal can and use it on your 6.5 as well. I have their 30cal Ultra 9 CB and...

    Shortest barrel on a .308 build

    I'd stick with 16". Not just for the legal easy-button, but performance as well. PROOF makes carbon wrapped AR10 barrels you could put on your LAR-8, would save you at least 1.3ish pounds depending on the current barrel weight. Maybe consider swapping out your handguard for something lighter as...

    effectiveness out of 10.5

    My vote goes to 50gr JHP or the 55gr zmax. At 10.5", I'd prioritize velocity.

    Tripod Ballhead best practice?

    With cheaper equipment there is going to be some slop, but that doesn't mean what you have is unusable. At times I still use an older aluminum Manfrotto tripod, but instead of a ball head I put a Hog Saddle or shooting pillow directly on top. This reduces slop, but obviously isn't as versatile...

    Suppressors 300prc with the Ultra 9

    I have the ultra 9 and I love it on short-action calibers. For magnums, I think you'd be better off with the 338, but I've never had my ultra on a magnum. A lot of your comfort is going to depend on your environment. For example, my 16" 308win is a little uncomfortable inside confined...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Cracked Glock frame?

    Yep, that's where our Glock 19s crack as well. Definitely a thing on well-used guns.

    20" 1/10 .308 to 1000 question

    Use density altitude and a g7 if possible, but that doesn’t sound too outlandish. What app are you using? I’d just go shoot it and see what happens..don’t get too wrapped around the axle.

    Suppressors Thunder Beast lead times...

    Getting back on topic, OP I would ditch the dealer that isn’t flexible enough to work with others. If you want a TBAC, I’d hold out/keep looking for one. I have a 30 cal Ultra 9 CB. Very happy with it. The new Dominus seems really cool fwiw. If you’re open to others, CGS makes some impressive...

    Suppressors Thunder Beast lead times...

    Take your 7mm-08 and cherry-picked 4 shot groups elsewhere. “Nothing more accurate.” Are you kidding me? You’re barely sub-MOA with most of those groups, bud. Who did this to you, EnXCess?

    XM2010 Arca Plate Options

    Whats up guys. I'm looking to get some XM2010s set up to be Arca-compatible. Does anyone have experience with the RRS RACS mounting plate? I'm pretty sure its compatible, just wondering if there are any other options I should be considering. I looked at the sawtooth rail, but I like that the...

    A Syllabus: Learning Precision Rifle Shooting

    Maybe I missed it, but I don’t see anything about moving targets on the list? Would fall under ballistics in my opinion.

    1000+ yds in NC?

    Recondo Operations Group - find them on Facebook. About 45-50min southeast of base, and your only real option beyond finding a landowner (go get to know the guys at Phase V Tactical..they know some landowners..if you’re a good guy they’ll probably help put you in touch with someone..build that...

    1000+ yds in NC?

    I don’t think anyone is arguing that Frontline is a decent range. OP said he’s in the southern Piedmont region, so perhaps Monroe area? If that’s the case, Frontline Defense is at least 3hrs away for him.... Who knows landowners in his part of NC that can hook up our boy here?

    1000+ yds in NC?

    Yes, but actually no. Wayyyy further than 1.5hr from OP. Cool range though, Andy of the Virginia Precision Rifle Club puts on nice matches there. Worth it, especially since they’re humble and nice people..and they usually have a mover stage.

    1000+ yds in NC?

    I do not recommend TRC. Very expensive, you have to pay by the hour and the range is not worth it in my opinion. Recondo Operations Group is south of Fayetteville, but is a little quirky and limited to 900yd. $30 for their daily fee, and you have to message them on Facebook to make sure Dave...

    Firearms Gap 223 SOLD

    Hey man, it’s cool you have this listed and all, but it’s pretty annoying when you don’t reply to questions. You don’t have a sale price, or even a list of stuff you’d like as a trade. Add some details, for the love of god.

    Thanks m8 lol Responded to another PM, and I thought it might be helpful to others possibly considering donating to my new-Canon-lens-fund (aka “new mattress fund” if you ask my wife...): $1675 if you want the scope+spuhr without the rings :) The scope in the spuhr clears a flat-top rail if...
