    Hornady seating stem for 73 Gr ELDM

    I use a Redding seating die with their VLD seating plug for the 73 ELD, never left a mark on one. It WOULD leave seating rings on 77 TMK's though, so I wound up lapping that plug to the 77 TMK and the issue went away. It would probably still seat the 73 ELD without an issue. I mainly load 77...

    How Relevant is the Nightforce NX8 4-32?

    I have four NX8 scopes, one 1-8, one 2.5-20 and two 4-32's all are FFP, FDE and have the Mil-XT reticles and were purchased in the last 3 years. The 4-32's are the best of the bunch, but the 2.5-20 is really good as well. I don't have ton's of use on the 1-8x yet, but's its compact size is...

    Thanks for the info! The only "hot" loads I've found for mine are XBR and the 77 TMK (2750 fps). I'm also close on one using N540 and the 77 TMK (2830 fps). -ZA

    Geissele Cut Rifled SPR Build and Barrel Evaluation. (Part 4 (Load Development 28MAY25) Update!!!

    What would be the velocities on some of those TAC loads in a 20" Bartlein with a CLE chamber? Just curious, as I know you've built a ton of uppers with those barrels from CLE. Thanks. -ZA

    Noveske barrel upgrade? Proof Research?

    Go with the new Geissele 18" SPR barrel instead of the Proof CF.

    Geissele Cut Rifled SPR Build and Barrel Evaluation. (Part 4 (Load Development 28MAY25) Update!!!

    I was telling my buddy about this barrel today as he was mentioning buying an 18” upper. I’m definitely interested in one.

    Can't wait to see what this barrel does with some hand loads. There might be one in my future!

    New Build: #1 & #2 (6ARC Radian/ Bartlein) ( Geissele / Craddock Precision)

    FYI.... B5 sells a rubberized cheek riser that snaps onto their precision stock's original movable cheek riser to give you more rise, and a larger cheek piece. It feels GREAT on your face. Highly recommend.

    Set me straight on LaRue OBR barrels

    I seem to remember @Bigjake83 dropping Proof factory AR barrels (and others) with standard barrel extensions into lot's of OBR uppers.

    Need a PRS style stock for an AR15

    I also have the B5 precision on two different precision AR rifles. They are fantastic. I have their rubber cheek riser/piece on my 6.5CM AR… it’s super comfortable. Fantastic stocks.

    JB’s Bore Paste & ARs

    That's all I shoot is AR rifles. Wipeout has never shown any bad side effects on my rifle bores (looking at them with the borescope), but then again, they are mostly stainless or chrome lined. My Bartlein has been cleaned almost exclusively with Wipeout for the last 3 years and it still looks...

    JB’s Bore Paste & ARs

    JB bore paste + Kroil is awesome for getting tough carbon fouling out of barrels. I'm a Wipe Out guy myself (I only use patches) and that does a great job getting most things out, but after about 1000 rounds, carbon gets burned into the bore and patches won't cut it. I use VFG pellets with...

    MagPul Stock Mod

    How much extra height does the LaRue RISR add at 12 o'clock & at 2 o'clock (about where your cheek would touch)??? I'm interested in getting one of these, but I can simulate the riser height with some cardboard & duct tape to see if it would work with one of my CTR stocks...

    MagPul Stock Mod

    @Bigjake83 Is that black piece on the Rizr an add on soft cheek piece? Where did you get it? -ZA

    Trickler / Scale Expectations

    I love my V4. I have it dialed in. It will throw Varget or H4350 charges in about 8 seconds, sometimes faster. Maybe one overthrow out of 20.

    Fgmm Creedmoor brass?

    From my 6.5CM testing…. average brass weights: (once fired, deprimed, wet tumbled, resized and trimmed to the same lengths) 20 piece averages… Federal SRP = 172.6 gr Peterson SRP = 167.0 gr Hornady LRP = 153.0 gr Norma LRP = 154.5 gr The Federal is pretty heavy and the case head is pretty...

    Large groups-runout issues

    How did you land on the 39.5 gr charge of H4350? What sort of load development did you do?
