    question about brass weighing

    I already reload and thus have a scale for measuring. This is not about the benefits of sorting, rather how small of ES on the weights of the brass to sort it in to. I am going to give it a try and see if there is a benefit first had as opposed to trolling around the internet reading...

    question about brass weighing

    What is the spread of the weight ranges you guys are sorting your brass into? I want to sort some brass by weight and see if there is a discernable different in accuracy. As an example for my 308 brass of 180 to 190 grains are you separating into lots of 10, 5, 2, 1, or even 1/2 grains of ES...

    Gas gun reloading

    I shoot 175s and 178s through my 1-11.25 with good results, it is common. I believe the 1-10 is capable up into the 220s. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    My 300BLK eventual SBR build

    That is why I am going with noveske barrels. Your FDE looked good but I am going with burnt bronze. My 5.56 barrel has a switch block so I limmitted myself to a 9" handguard since I don't like the bottom extended or notched ones. I will start a thread once I finish it.

    LWRC SPR Gas Piston System Length

    I assumed lwrci components would be very propriatery. Have you already tried three different barrels? I'm sure their gas system is propriatery.

    REPR Questions

    I own a REPR 20. It is less than moa. It does have nicer features and a superior fit and finish than any other LR 308 I have seen. (not that I have seen every one). There are Many accounts of REPRs being 1/2 moa but so far mine hasn't tightened up that much, but I am new to the precision...

    GAP-10 or Larue OBR or LWRC Repr?

    I have a REPR 20 and like it. I have no first hand experience with the other rifles listed. The side charger is very nice for all shooting positions. Adjustable gas block for suppressed, or shooting crappy ammo, or saving brass in tall grass. Extremyly ergonomic and a much nicer fit and...

    Will a Vortex Razor HD 20-60x85 be a good asset

    I do not know which model it was. Its price was eleven or twelve hundred. I liked the rapid focus, but on the same power the Leopold had much better transmission and clarity. Bushes compared to blades of grass. For kit in those price ranges I spend a few hundred more for what is clearly a...

    Will a Vortex Razor HD 20-60x85 be a good asset

    I am also in the market for a spotter. At the the local gun store I compared a vortex side by side with a gold ring. It was Very easy to see the difference in clarity and light transmission. I will likely be going with a gold ring and send it in to Leopold for them to put a reticle in it...
