    Gunsmithing how to figure twist for 223 subsonic

    how do you figure out the required twist rate to stabilize a given projectile when shooting subsonic? thinking of a fun project with 60-80 gr .224 bullets out of a hornet case or something like that like the aguilla sss 60 grain sub load but center fire and re-loadable thanks for suggestions

    Buffalo classic

    Re: Buffalo classic the sight sits right over the hammer and gives about 2" more sight radius. windage and elevation are both the same type of knob and have good solid clicks. just imagine the elevation knob turned sideways.

    Buffalo classic

    Re: Buffalo classic i have one and i put the williams foolproof 5d sight on the back with a target aperture. helped my shooting greatly, also nice to make adjustments with the target click knobs on the side. well worth the money.

    savage or browning?

    Re: savage or browning? without a doubt go savage. i had a browning a bolt in 338 rum and it was a pain to get parts for. savage is easy to get parts , stocks , etc. browning is a really nice rifle just like it for what it is

    Re: USMC-Navy Cross recipient the talking heads in the media should have to end every broadcast with reading of citations like this. it would boost everyone's spirits after they cover all the bad news and crap that is going on.

    Savage a better deal?

    Re: Savage a better deal? like everyone else said the jb is not a problem. i got a sweet deal on a Remington 223 because the previous owner used jb to "bed" it and got the shit everywhere! the bolt was stuck in place because he squeezed the receiver in to the stock with no screws so it went...
