    Suppressors POI shift experiment with suppressors

    I ran the same experiment with my 24” 6.5CM Proof CF barreled Aero AR10… AAC SDN6 that’s been Ecco’d with a Keymo HUB mount & Silencerco SAKER with a Keymo HUB mount. Basically 1.3 MIL shift down for the SAKER and 1.7-ish MILS for the SDN6!!!:LOL: Tested using 143 Norma, 140 ELDM & 147 ELDM...

    Do you bother considering powder temperature shift?

    OP’s math is correct. In deg F, it’s a 1.51 fps/F shift rate.

    Black Hills 69 TMK - 5.56 Ammo?

    Anyone have any experience with this load as far as accuracy and velocity? It’s listed at 2875 fps (20” barrel) on the Black Hills sight. I have a large stash of 69 TMK but have never found a load even close to that velocity that wasn’t a 3” group (more like a pattern… lol) or larger…. This is...

    Suppressors Is an AAC 762-SDN-6 worth converting to 1.375 x 24 interface?

    I had Ecco do HUB conversions on my M4-2000 and my SDN6. Well worth the money. They are heavier now, but I actually use them now (keymo devices on everything)

    AutoTrickler V4 app update questions.

    I’ve used my way for the last 6 months and have had no issues. Calibrating every time is a waste of time and is totally unnecessary. If I tried a new powder that doesn’t work with one of those three profiles, I may consider doing a calibration to get a baseline. Odds are, one of my existing...

    AutoTrickler V4 app update questions.

    Yea, I’ve watched all the videos and have no issues with them. Once you get the right settings, you don’t have to calibrate anything. Just save the settings as a preset. I simply dump powder of choice in hopper, hit appropriate preset, punch in desired powder drop and hit go. That’s it. First...

    Redding 6.5CM resizing die issues…

    I’ll chime in… I upgraded my press to a Zero and had to reset all of my dies, including this Redding set. I wound up trying my original shell holder and was able to set everything up just fine. I noticed that I needed to lube (Imperial) the entire case including the body almost to the rim to get...

    AutoTrickler V4 app update questions.

    The larger the grain size the more horizontal the small tube needs to be, which means shimming under the front. The more horizontal the tube, the less the grains tend to tumble out… they have to be shoved out by the internal screw threads. I make sure the scale is perfectly level (using the...

    Ultimate gas block of choice | update on riflespeed

    Meh… that’s just your opinion and is worth what we all paid for it!😂 I’ve built my rifles with set screw adjustable gas blocks, SA gas blocks, Guvnah gas blocks and RifleSpeed gas blocks… The RifleSpeed is by far my favorite. The SA is the best “set it and forget it” for people who don’t like...

    Did you buy a straight gas tube to go with the rifle speed? If not, you need to.

    PSA regarding mandrels...

    When I resize and mandrel 223 brass, I'm using homebrew lanolin lube that's sprayed in most of the necks (basically hosed down... LOL) and the whole mandrel deal goes really smooth. Once resized and mandreled, they get tumbled in corn cob for final cleanup. On my 6.5CM brass, I typically use...

    PSA regarding mandrels...

    Just a heads up/PSA... if using a mandrel with a Ti-N (gold) coating that's advertised as "not needing lube", disregard that advertisement. Lube IS required. This past weekend I expanded the necks on maybe 150 pieces of 6.5CM brass that had been wet tumbled and annealed. I didn't lube the necks...
