    Suppressors How are Knight's Armament Suppressors for precision?

    Don't over think it bud. I have a QDC suppressor because I shoot only Knight's AR's. So yes I did get a can to match them. They are not the quietest, nor the lightest, but they are built like tanks. Hence the reason I considered it a life time purchase. I do feel the 338 can is a waste, but its...

    Redding T-7 upgrade?

    What I was trying to elude to, was a cost savings over the long term. Die sets are more expensive than just buying a resizer+ wilson seater. At some point you will load another caliber. Even if you just get a rock chucker and a seater it would make better rounds. I do not recommend Lee...

    Suppressors How are Knight's Armament Suppressors for precision?

    Do you even own a 338 ? I think your understanding is a bit wrong. None of them help with precision.....but a cheap suppressor can be detrimental to accuracy causing POI shift from taking it off/on......as well as it throwing rounds all over the place. I have a good friend that bought a cheap...

    Redding T-7 upgrade?

    An arbor press is typically used for bullet seating only. But I think the benchrest guys do all operations with them at the bench. I use the T7 for resizing and seat bullets with the arbor/wilson seater. It is superior to a micro die imho. So let me put it to you this way.....minus the cost of...

    Redding T-7 upgrade?

    The T-7 is great if you load multiple calibers etc. I use Wilson seaters so I only have the sizer's/collet puller/expander etc in mine. i wish I had bought one sooner. My dies never move, other than to pull and clean. Imperial or witch's brew for lube works great. I do recommend an arbor...

    6.5x47 still relevant?

    6 varget ~1700 barrel life<---barrel burner I usually run thru 8# of powder then rebarrel. 6.5 H4350/varget~2500 barrel life I will note that tons of guys went to the 6 creed running 4831sc for an easy tune. The 6x47L groups are always small, but a bit harder to tune especially with 105...

    6.5x47 still relevant?

    I have both. I shoot 130's (2915) in the x47 and 147 (2820)in the creed. Just pick one. The 47 has been a diehard up where I live for many years. There are lots of naysayers on the creed, but finally it is becoming more popular. I will say the 6x47 makes smaller groups even when just out of a...

    They can eat shit an die for all I care

    There is always a choice, but the sad part is that it does not shut down ALL govt if a budget is not passed. Due to our fiat monetary system, it thrives on debt. Our debt is so large now, it can never be repaid. Just remember when your in that voting booth, there is no difference in party's.

    What do u think? Civil war 2.0

    I listened to this while making dinner tonight. He doesn't really know that much about history....and is biased towards "the right" in most aspects. If the right is so omni-powerful, which the govt or left cannot stop, then why haven't the "right" drained the swamp yet ? 50 years from now there...
