    LMT .308 MWS

    Thanks for the feedback. Those are the ones my research continued to bring me back to when researching lower back pressure cans. I thought it was pretty cool OSS got selected for the army’s new HK rifle and the CSASS contract. Was also interested in the Sandman S, but not sure if the increased...

    LMT .308 MWS

    I have an LMT CQB on order and looking to order an LMT MWS as well. Which can(s) would give me the best bet at running reliably without having to switch any stock parts out?

    Suppressors First Can(s)? For AR15, AR10, and multi-cal precision rifle.

    I have an area 419 Brake on my AI, but to my knowledge they don’t have an adaptor for the SR series. I think the secondary retention is a really cool feature.

    Suppressors First Can(s)? For AR15, AR10, and multi-cal precision rifle.

    That’s cool! How would you anticipate the Dominus SR performing on the LMT rifles that can’t really be tuned for suppressors? I’m looking for a low back pressure can for the LMT AR15 and AR10. And the “go to war” rating is a big factor for me. This is an option I was considering as well!

    Rifle Scopes Scope Shopping In Dallas

    Might have to call ahead to make sure they have it, but pretty sure Scheels in The Colony has the NX8 you’re looking at.

    Help me hoard high end rifles before elections

    If I were you (and I’m not) this is what I would consider: 1. AR-15: KAC SR-15/LMT/HK 416/SCAR-L 2. AR-10: KAC SR-25/LMT/HK 417/SCAR-H/20S I know you didn’t ask about these, but I would also consider these: 3. Handgun: G17/M17 4: Bolt: AXMC/AXSR/MRAD 5: Shotgun: Benelli M4 6: 7.62x39: Galil...

    Suppressors First Can(s)? For AR15, AR10, and multi-cal precision rifle.

    Initially, I was looking at getting a TBAC 338 Ultra (maybe SR) as I mostly shoot my bolt gun. However, I thought it might be nice to get one suppressor I can use for 3 platforms. The AR15 will be an LMT, AR10 will likely be an LMT, and the bolt will likely be an MRAD, AXMC, or AXSR. I am a...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper PST Issues

    I’m not an expert in this, but a few quick things: 1) Why did you feel it was necessary to lap Vortex Precision Matched Rings? 2) I think Vortex specifically says not to use Loctite with rings because this can give you a false torque value.

    Want a good RELIABLE battle rifle that shoots a bit better than my SCAR17

    Do you shoot with a can? I have no experience myself, but I’m looking into an LMT and the biggest negative I’ve heard is that some people get a lot of gas in the face when shooting suppressed.

    does wind affect elevation

    Could someone help explain (dumb it down for me) the Kestrel stuff? I just got a kestrel 5700 elite, still learning how to use it. Right now I capture target direction, capture wind speeds WS1 and WS2, and then take my shot. Should I not be using WS1? If so, how do you turn it off?

    The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!

    Should I be concerned with the large firing pin causing pierced primers? Looking to pick up and MRAD or AI and want to make the best decision possible (I know the AXSR has a small firing pin).

    Range Report Hornady 147 ELDM blowing up

    I’m hoping to get into the ELR game. I was looking at 300 PRC with factory Hornady 225 ELD-M ammo, but now I’m second guessing that.

    300 PRC update

    Sorry to invade this thread. I’ve tried to ask around but haven’t gotten many responses, so I figured I’d come to the source. I’m a beginner and I’m leaning towards getting an MRAD in 300PRC to get my toes wet in ELR. However, from what I’ve found the MRAD 300 PRC barrels are only offered with a...

    The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!

    Has anybody tried these? Kind of worried about the 1:8 twist as I’m planning on running factory hornady 225 ELD-M ammo.

    300 PRC, Proof CF, twist rate question.

    Anyone have feedback on 1:8 twist in the last year since this post started? Barrett only offers 300PRC MRAD barrels with a 1:8 twist. I plan on running factory 225 Hornady ammo. I’m new to this stuff! seems like the sg would be higher than what Tooley recommends.

    Beginner Questions. MRAD vs. AI? 300NM vs. 300PRC vs. 338LM

    I didn’t realize 300NM and 300 PRC were so comparable at 2000yds. Does the 300NM beat the wind better than the 300PRC out to 2000? At what distance does the 300NM start to noticeably outperform the 300PRC? If I go with the MRAD, is a 1-8 twist too fast for a 26” 300 PRC barrel with 225 ELD-M...

    Beginner Questions. MRAD vs. AI? 300NM vs. 300PRC vs. 338LM

    Thanks for the responses! I read about the possible angle issue in this article: https://gununiversity.com/300-prc-ballistics-and-comparisons/ “ According to inside sources at Hornady, one of their motivations for coming to market with the 300 PRC was to avoid the unsafe conditions presented...

    Beginner Questions. MRAD vs. AI? 300NM vs. 300PRC vs. 338LM

    Short Story: (1) Which rifle? MRAD vs. AXMC vs. AXSR. Is there a downside to large firing pins, especially for the larger cartridges? I want to avoid pierced primers. (2) Which Cartridge for out to 2000yds using only factory ammo? 300NM vs. 300PRC vs. any other? What twist rate? What factory...
