    Hornady One shot on a gasser

    Thanks for input. What issues were you having? When you took it apart, was there a specific area that caused the problem? Thanks.

    Hornady One shot on a gasser

    Turning up the gas has worked for me. I'm just wondering what people's experiences with dry lube is.

    Hornady One shot on a gasser

    Has anyone tried Hornady One shot dry lube on a gas gun? I ask because I'm going to be running a large frame gasser in 2-day PRS matches this year with a Maverick. After about 80 rounds, carbon starts to build up on the gas rings and sometimes chokes the rifle. I can solve this by increasing...

    Swarovski and Kahles are sister companies and their 1-6 scopes are the same optical design.

    Looking at these pictures, AX is far cooler looking.

    SPR/DMR matches: What are you running?

    Did this match happen? Says you're from VA so close to me in MD.

    Christensen Arms MPR

    Doesn’t surprise me that they perform the same. If anything my money would be on the Tikka. But you’re comparing a 7.5 lb rifle to a 11.25 lb rifle. Built for different purposes.

    New 6mm Advanced Rifle Cartridge

    Quoting myself with update. Went back out today, this time with factory Hornady 108s . Very consistent hits at a IPSC at 1000. 7 for 10 on a 10” plate at 960. Misses were not far off although not all to wind. Conditions were pretty favorable today. Velocity in summer with this ammo was 2740...

    Rifle Scopes NF ATACR 4-16x42 Zerohold?

    I went to reset zero on my ATACR F1 4-16x42 and decided for whatever reason to look at the manual. Instead of simply resetting the turret (which I had done in the past), it has me removing the turret and setting the clamp wheel (similar to other Nightforce scopes) as well as dialing 2 mils below...

    Suppressors Maverick backpressure on Gasser

    Finally got around to trying it out. Backpressure was lighter than my TBAC, but I wouldn't call it a "low backpressure" can like a surefire. I did need to reduce gas significantly from brake. Accuracy was excellent and very soft shooting. 130s @ 2800 and easily spotted hits. Will take to 1000...

    Federal vs CCI primer pressures

    So I'm not actually getting pressure signs. Primers still round and no cratering. I didn't do a specific water test, but I did shoot this load in heavy rain. Very minor flattening of primers. With the afformentioned federal lot. That being said, the reason I made the thread is the velocities...

    Federal vs CCI primer pressures

    I saw that, but I’m wondering if they are taking seating depth into account. Their 77grain data states 23.2 max. An 80eldm seating to AR depth (2.260”) would be compressed as hell. I’m seating closer to 2.500” and still jumping. That is a good idea to seat a little deeper, I have plenty of...

    Federal vs CCI primer pressures

    While you’re right, I did not have access to a range for a period of time. I went ahead and loaded the rounds in evenings thinking it would only be a 20fps difference. I went back to my notes and was getting same speeds with older Federal 205m as BR4 when doing initial load development on this...

    Labradar. Also drops out to 1000.

    Federal vs CCI primer pressures

    Has anyone else noticed a significant difference in velocity when using different primers? I’m seeing 60-80 fps increase in velocity when using Federal 205M vs CCI BR4 or 450. My current .223 load shoots very accurately and consistently but now worried I may be pushing pressures. 23.4 grains...

    Bolt in..... bolt out...

    Also if you have multiple of the same action, don't clean them at same time. Had a guy in my squad show up with a .223 bolt on a 6.5 barrel.
