    FL Sizing Difficulties

    Re: FL Sizing Difficulties ok, So it sounds like you need to have the shell holder or the die base machined to actually head space the case properly. The effort to properly size should be no more than a slight effort with your weak hand. If your only sizing the brass for your one weapon. You...

    Barrel Decisions

    Re: Barrel Decisions Honestly it's going to be a toss up. I have found that the rifles balance is also important in how it feels shooting offhand. If you have a really light stock it seems to feel more natural to have a light barrel so the rifle isn't muzzle heavy or butt heavy. But my gut...

    Re: USPSA upgrades for my Glock 34? If your running down loaded ammo for matches (~130 power factor), You could run the 13 lb ismi recoil spring like I do. Watch out with the 11 lb springs, they run fine till they get some rounds through them, then you may not go into battery when the...

    Suppressors .308 subsonic

    Re: .308 subsonic I don't have a recipe for anything other than subsonic 168 gr, but if I recall it was like 8.0 grains of titegroup. and ONLY 8.0. I never worked up anything for heavier bullets since we rarely used subsonic.

    dpms trigger

    Re: dpms trigger I got a dpms lower parts kit just till I got my Geissele DMR trigger. It feels like the trigger is sliding back on gravel. Pretty much any of the Geissele triggers you will be more than happy with. I would suggest the High speed DMR, the up side is it may be more costly but...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns anyone build a competition steel pistol?

    Re: anyone build a competition steel pistol? It depends on which class your going to run. production, limited or open. For production I use my glock 17 for now, and STI edge in Limited. Did fine tuning load development with both, weeding out powders by fouling now. But you really can't go...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns CCW on campus.

    Re: CCW on campus. Yeah, My school policy is that you can carry but under no circumstances are you to use the weapon on campus. On the off chance of a active shooter situation coming up and you happened to stop a killing streak then they might not mind as much. But your still at the mercy of...

    Re: Headspacing AR For the internet experts. If you don't at least have a gunsmith or armorer(you?) check head spacing on your rifle your an idiot. The concept of everything that comes out of a firearms shop is good to go is the farthest from freagin great idea I have ever heard of. In the...

    Can or AR?

    Re: Can or AR? I would say get a can for your 308. But the down side is the time it takes for the gov to process your paperwork. (3-8 months before you have your can). Not sure about your states laws but in Oregon we walk in, buy and walk out with a rifle or pistol (electronic background...

    Re: TAC OPS M40A1 --- Happy New Year to me! 1 lb trigger? Be careful with that shit. lol Sneeze with a round in the chamber and the pin might drop. First time I shot my bolt rifle at 1.5 lbs in 20 degree weather I quickly rethought that idea lol(losing feeling and dexterity had the shots...

    Suppressors Pros & Cons: suppressed .308 vs. 5.56/.223?

    Re: Pros & Cons: suppressed .308 vs. 5.56/.223? Subsonic ammo isn't usually used IRL. The idea behind suppressors is they don't mask the shot being taken. They reduce the muzzle, sound (makes communication within the team easier if everyone is using them), flash and dust signatures increasing...

    Rifle Scopes Why not fixed magnification for LR guns?

    Re: Why not fixed magnification for LR guns? In the old days (pre 1995) the idea was that the single power scopes were more reliable among other things. The glass and durability of the variable power scopes today are much better than previous offerings. If your shooting long range I would...
