    Same; I hit “add to cart” with them showing in stock but I must’ve been one of hundreds (thousands?) vying for the same few items

    Mack Bro’s SS Evo

    This. I bought one recently and it shipped next day. I want a new Mack action and a new barrel for it but like it’s been mentioned, a huge lead time is not as ideal as I’d like. Buying a more expensive option thats delivered in a fraction of the time is a convenience fee of sorts I was told...

    .224 Valkyrie

    Just use an actual crimp remover in a drill. Using a chamfering tool…yikes lol Shooting an 80gr that slow didn’t make Valk worth it for me. My 77gr SMK/TMKs are averaging in the mid to high 2700s already so I wanted the speed :cool:

    .224 Valkyrie

    I loaded my 80gr ELDs and 80.5gr Bergers to 2.2850” with 24.8gr of H4895. Could’ve gone a tad higher but the accuracy was great and no need to go (even) harder on the brass for zero return. Edit: 20” barrel

    Suppressor suggestions

    Well I pulled the trigger on it. Hopefully I get the stamp before this time next year :cautious:

    Suppressor suggestions

    I’m in the market for a new .30 cal can and didn’t want to start a whole new thread This DA can is really catching my eye. I was also hoping to stick around $1100. I use Griffin mounts but a 1.375x24 omega threaded can would also be nice. Not opposed to 5/8x24 direct thread My priorities...

    18" barrel accuracy problems and questions.

    In this current ammo environment, shooting a ton of good ammo to break in a barrel and get it shooting is no good. Doesn’t sound like you’ll be happy with the BA no matter what happens If you need a lightweight barrel for backwoods packing that can shoot well, look at a Proof CF barrel. If...

    Had a "boom" yesterday

    If I pick up range brass and I can tell it’s probably been reloaded (ie crimp removed, case mouth chamfered, the other usual suspects), I toss it in the recycle bucket. I tend to stick with LC, PSD, FGMM and others due to the characteristics that lend to them being once fired: Primer crimp...

    Remington 700 Trigger Recommendations - Hunting

    My shooting partner had his Trigger Tech Diamond shit the bed in his 6BR. Wouldn’t reset when cycling the bolt. TT replaced it but his rifle went down in the middle of a match which was unfortunate OP: I’ve been using a Timney Elite Hunter 1.5-4lb adjustable, flat face for a while and I like it.

    Powder IN-STOCK thread

    I bought 2k of the #41s just because the ONLY reloading supply store within over an hour of me hasn’t had primers on the shelf in at least a year. I had a coupon code which offset hazmat which wasn’t terrible but 10.9 cents per primer is a good bit higher than I’m used to, however, I don’t...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns What Flashlight?

    I run the 250/50 version of this and I love it https://www.streamlight.com/products/detail/index/macrostream-usb small enough to fit in your pocket but 500 lumens for the outdoors and 50 lumens up close

    Suppressors Shooting suppressed 100% of time

    I’m in South Carolina. I’ve seen people using those chamber fans that blow air through the barrel and can. Not sure how much quicker they cool things off than just stand alone time in the shade the first time I saw one in use I couldn’t figure out what the noise was that I was hearing and it...

    Suppressors Shooting suppressed 100% of time

    a round a minute plus a few sighters isn’t nearly enough to damage a can unless that rate of fire is higher than recommended by the Mfr. What kind of can is it?

    Suppressors How do you carry/track you paperwork to the range or out shooting?

    I’m from SC and have only been asked to produce paperwork at an outdoor range owned by a company known for being from the Palmetto State...hint hint Their range, their rules, but I haven’t been back. There’s a range with over twice the length and ten times nicer just down the road and they...

    How much ammo/components do you have?

    Not necessarily hoarding. It’s like when the gas pumps go dry....when everyone who would normally buy X item over the course of a week and the purchases are spread out, the store has a chance to restock. When everyone buys said item on Day 1 & 2 versus spread out across seven + days, the...

    Why use 556 when Valkyrie is available ?

    if you’re basing max barrel length off of a suppressor being added then perhaps a dedicated caliber specific can would be a good investment which would also open up other options barrel/cartridge wise. And more suppressors are always fun And I ran a 20” .224 Valkyrie for three years. I did...
