    Muzzle brake or suppressor for 300 WM?

    Another good choice would be the Abel Theorem with brake ( maybe Theorem-L with brake). Definitely the area 419 Hellfire system makes mounting the can simple and if you want to maybe use a muzzle break, just get the hellfire match, attaches to the same muzzle adapter.

    Muzzle brake or suppressor for 300 WM?

    My suggestion is a TBAC Magnus-S RR or another braked mid size can.

    FUBAR times 6!

    Sounds like there should be a suit against the shop by the PD! If nothing else it would put them on notice. Never even heard of a Negative cant base. How did you fix the mark on the receiver from the chip? Whole thing sounds kind of Bubba!

    Rifle Scopes Official Zero Compromise Optic News & Updates

    No, the throw lever is an additional charge. Not sure it is really needed as the ZCO power ring already has a designed in throw “fin” as do all ZCO scopes.

    Badlands "Shell Shock" 5.56 - snake oil?

    Yeah maybe not in an AR but I would be fine shooting it in my bolts. As long as the pressure signs stay cool, not worried about it coming apart.

    I have had (and still have) locking and Non-locking. I have also had 15 mil and have 10 mil dials. I prefer the 10 mil as it is easier for me to count as I am able to "feel" the clicks better. I prefer the non-locking, especially if I am dialing (as opposed to holding off) a lot.

    I like both HTR and DMR but for different guns. My HTR is on a 16” 300blk, my DMR is going on a 16” Bartlein 556. Pick one…..HTR.

    Is N150 a throat torcher??

    What speeds are you shooting these rounds ? If you shoot either much over 3000 fps you are going to start wearing out barrels

    Geissele Super Duty or LMT MARS L-5.56 16in

    The LMT is a Great choice, I have a number of them. The used barrel is the wild card. Most likely really good, definitely a great place to start. If down the road you decide it is not what you want you can have Wilson create a new one from whatever 556 barrel you want. They are super easy to...

    Barrel Vise

    I also use a Viper. I have 2 pieces of 1/4” leather cut to fit the outlines of the bolts. One below the barrel one on top. I really tighten the bolts down and I get zero barrel twist or maring even up to 120 lb/ft. My barrels are all cerocoated and come out perfect.

    Trigger options..... bix n andy triggertech diamond or timney hit

    Not sure, because “tune” means a lot of things. For me I always set things the way I like them, is that tuning? They are really easy to adjust. Mine are Pro X 2 stages. I first set my initial ( first stage) take up, I want just a bit of movement. Then I set my first stage weight ( about 3 oz)...
