    300 BLK subsonic bolt options

    I assume you haven't seen how poorly the bolt to action fit is on a Ruger. Watch some videos, maybe you got lucky with your Ruger. Every time you cycle it, it sounds like a huge zipper going up and down. Ruger doesn't pop into my mind when I think quality, precision, etc. Cheap...that is for...

    300 BLK subsonic bolt options

    In my reading on this topic, seems like the R700 doesn't feed/extract 300 BO well. If you got yours working, that is great. I can wait for the Howa Mini, have other gun related purchases anyway. But, hope Tikka wakes up and builds a 300 bo.

    300 BLK subsonic bolt options

    I got another email from Legacy today. Don't expect any of the Howa 300BO to arrive till end of the year, or early 2024. My bet is early to mid 2024.

    300 BLK subsonic bolt options

    A few months ago I emailed them and they said they are bringing it back, but have had some delays. Guy said 200 days or something silly like that. I will wait it out. Hope it happens. I would buy it over the ruger ranch any day. The Tikka would be supremely better for me (biased toward Tikka)...

    300 BLK subsonic bolt options

    If it wasn't proposed already...here are two options: Howa mini in 300 BO. They are going to be imported again over the next 6-8 months. Crappy soft stock. ~$500 + $420 MDT Oryx. Tikka 223 lite ($750), pull the barrel, get a criterion $400 (probably more with threaded and coated, like $600...

    Suppressors Dead air Xeno brake alternative

    ok, I have an email from Josh saying it will be on the market Q3 this year. Either way, I have moved on! Looking at other options.

    I haven't found out yet either.

    Suppressors Dead air Xeno brake alternative

    yeah, that was the next thing I was starting to think about. I guess as long as the brake is shorter than the DA Xeno brake, I should be ok, right? Not sure why DA doesn't just make a 2 or 3 port brake. Would make life easier.

    Exactly what I was looking for.

    Suppressors Dead air Xeno brake alternative

    Does anyone make a brake to work with the Xeno end cap mount on a dead air suppressor that has the function of a brake with side baffles/vents to reduce muzzle flip when not using the suppressor? I have not seen anything out there on how well the Xeno brake works when not using a suppressor.

    Silencer Central for barrel threading

    Yeah, the lack of reviews is a bit disturbing. I have talked with LRI and I might go with them. Like you said, its 2x, but have gotten about 5 replies to my emails in one day from LRI. It has been 3 or 4 days since I emailed silencer central and no response. That should be a warning...and it was.

    Silencer Central for barrel threading

    Do you know if they do Class 3A spec threads? Not advertised on their site and haven't gotten a response to my email question. I like that they provide the shipping box and a label. Very convenient.

    I purchased my barrel from him not long ago. Great barrel and guy.

    Silencer Central for barrel threading

    There is a local guy that does it on a million dollar CNC (so he says), he is someone the gunshop uses and I have no other references for him. I figured silencer central probably does alot of these and they know what they are doing.

    Has anyone used silencer central for barrel threading service?

    Pros and Cons of these two options

    True, but if I was going custom, I would get in line for the ARC CDG. Maybe if I have a windfall I will splurge. The longest distance I shoot is 500 yards (summer only). My 223 can handle that distance easy. 6.5 is too much gun for 500 yards.

    Pros and Cons of these two options

    I shot T3x 223 today at 300 yards for 2 groups (5 rounds and 4 rounds) using Hornady Match factory ammo. Each about 1.75" edge-to-edge using a cheap key chain tape measure. Doubt it would do that on every group, but its still pretty good. For the money, the Tikka can't be beat. I will have to...

    I see a new "barrel maker" future for you. I'll take on in 1.25".
