    Badlands "Shell Shock" 5.56 - snake oil?

    I bought 200 rounds of the 77 OTM but I may give the 77 SMK version a try to see if it's any better. To be honest I got the same training value out of Winchester 55 FMJ that I did the AAC 77 OTM. Sure, the accuracy wasn't the same but the slow speed coupled with the high ES, and SD in my 16"...

    Sierra Precision Grip Mod

    Wrapped up this little project this morning with some paint and matte clear finish. I'll see if we have some M&Ms so I can see exactly how many it'll hold.

    I can only speak to the volume, not the quantity, so you're still looking at a good handful of peanut M&M's in the grip.

    Haha I want to do that now.

    Sierra Precision Grip Mod

    You know I posted this on Reddit too and I didn't even get that question...I was somewhat disappointed. The answer is I don't know, I don't eat Skittles, now I can crush some M&M's and based on that experience I'd have to think I can get at least at good handful of M&M's in there or two...

    Sierra Precision Grip Mod

    Once I sand on it later tonight and ease the edges it'll blend in pretty good I think. The K2 XL that I bought came with the lube bottle grip core but I removed that and a made a foam insert to go in its place to hold some optic tools and stuff without rattling around. It looks like there's a...

    Sierra Precision Grip Mod

    The Sierra Precision Grip is probably my favorite grip for a precision AR but one of the drawbacks is that the inside of the grip is hollow and it's weirdly shaped so there were really no options for storage. I decided to do something about that so I brainstormed some ideas and what I came up...

    Badlands "Shell Shock" 5.56 - snake oil?

    I'm stocked up on IMI 77 gr myself and need to get some more, the AAC 77 OTM is decent for the cost but slow.

    Badlands "Shell Shock" 5.56 - snake oil?

    Haha this is true, I can get hits with crappy 55 gr ball to about 500 but I think they’re mostly marketing this to those pushing small frame AR’s to 600+. The point I was going for is that shills are going to hype the hell out of the velocity but ignore that in terms of wind and ft/lbs it’s...

    Muzzle velocity sells ammo but BC gets hits.

    Badlands "Shell Shock" 5.56 - snake oil?

    Mk 262 Mod 1 was peak 5.56 77 gr ammunition and anything since seems to be diminishing returns in one form or another, in my opinion. The Badlands NAS3 85gr Match Burners sound interesting and might warrant a closer look.

    Badlands "Shell Shock" 5.56 - snake oil?

    Running the numbers, theoretically, if I shoot this out of my 16" gun, which is currently getting 2675fps from IMI 77 OTM and we up that to 2800 fps (taking the middle ground), it's not THAT impressive. IMI is 4.9 mils to 600 yds, goes transonic around 750 yards, needs 1.0 mil wind deflection...

    Anybody seen a gun wrap in person?

    You can throw a stick and hit at least one or two hydro dip companies in most locales, especially south of the Mason Dixon. When I had my chassis parts done I used a local company, someone hardly anyone would really know of, and was pretty satisfied, it's still holding up well too years later...

    Sling Studs to Flush Cups

    You misunderstood. He was talking about adapters that let you attach a flush cup swivel to a stock equipped with standard sling swivels. Grovetec makes a similar product.

    Dallas school shooter

    Despite extra security measures at the school, Haynes was able to enter through an unsecured door. "So it was not a failure of our staff, of our protocols, or of the machinery that we have," said Dallas ISD Police Chief Scott Smith. I don't know chief, it seems like a failure of the staff and...

    Competition .223 muzzle break help

    I've been pretty happy with the PRI Quiet Control brake. It's not blasty from where I'm at and it offers good recoil control. When I'm switched on I can do about 1/2 second splits on a IPSC at 400 from prone.
