    Cleaning JP Adjustable Gas Block?

    Sounds good. Don't want to un-adjust anything because the rifle runs perfect.

    Cleaning JP Adjustable Gas Block?

    Thanks. I'll leave mine alone. Rifle runs great - suppressed & unsuppressed. Just giving it a thorough cleaning and wanted to ask on the gas block. Again, use as a DMR/PRS gun. Rapid fire for me is 10 rounds in 2min.30sec.

    Cleaning JP Adjustable Gas Block?

    I assume you remove the block from the barrel to do this. How often do you do this? I use my rifle as a DMR and do not do mag dumps, etc.

    Cleaning JP Adjustable Gas Block?

    I have a precision AR w/ an adjustable JP gas block. I don't generally clean it. I thoroughly clean the barrel, bolt & action every 250 rounds or so but not the gas block. Should I? If so, what is the proper way.

    Swarovski 15x56 as PRS Spotting Scope

    Just getting I to PRS and having issues with target acquisition. Have had some serious eye issues in the last year which does not help. Couple of guys suggested me getting Swaro 15x56. I currently have vortex fury 10x42 and they suggested getting a dual tripod mount and use the fury for...

    Alpha Brass - Shorter than min case length

    I did not look at SAAMI & should have. My Hornady reloading manual indicated 1.920 - 1.910. Never questioned the quality of Alpha brass & did not mean to have my post come off that way. Was just curious why it was 'under' when it actually was not.

    Headspace Length Variation on Sig 716 DMR

    Thanks for the explanation. The case is definitely oval at the mouth as it bangs the barrel extension while it is ejected. Can also see two axial scrapes from the bolt teeth. Nothing severely distorted, but nonetheless, distorted. I assumed that the accurate reading was the shortest one...

    Headspace Length Variation on Sig 716 DMR

    Is this because of the barrel chamber or a function of the brass and how it cools? Is this normal? Have not noticed this before in my rifles.

    Headspace Length Variation on Sig 716 DMR

    Just measured the headspace length on cases fired by my Sig 716 DMR. The brass is R-P four time fired brass. The headspace length varied from 1.627" to 1,631" for brass coming out of the same rifle. Why is there so much variation?

    Alpha Brass - Shorter than min case length

    I just shot some Eagle Eye ammo in 6.5CM that I bought primarily for the brass. After sizing my cases I measured the case length and all the cases were between 1.904" & 1.907". The minimum case length (i.e. trim length) for 6.5 CM is 1.910". Not terribly undersize but all of the cases were...

    Cleaning Rod OK to as Carry On

    Don't fly often to the tune of doing 120K miles a year. Don't have time to be slowed down by TSA and my carry on does not include anything that gets trough easily. TSA is fickle. What one agent requires another prohibits. No rhyme or reason. Can see some TSA A**Hat saying that a one piece...

    Lapua/Alpha worth the premium?

    Is Lapua or Alpha worth the premium? Just getting into 6.5CM and need to stock up on brass. Can get starline for about half the price.

    Cleaning Rod - Jag Adaptors

    I used to have a bunch and all of a sudden cannot find them. Will have to figure out what thread sizes I have now I guess.

    Cleaning Rod - Jag Adaptors

    I have a bunch of cleaning rods & jags./brushes There are many different thread pitches, male vs. female etc. Is there a 'generic' thread adaptor kit? So that I could use most of my jags/brushes with any of my rods?

    Anyone use Silica Gel Packets-Desiccant Packs to keep moisture out of powder?

    Does anyone use the Silica Gel Packets-Desiccant Packs to reduce how much moisture is in opened powder jugs. Never have before but am beginning to buy 8 lbs. jugs which I will not go through very quickly. What size packets would I need? That is how much water in weight should the packet be...
