    Where is the Lever Action Love?

    Re: Where is the Lever Action Love? My gunsmith shoots shutzen with an old 30-30 lever gun. Really nice marlin shoots about half inch at a hundred but was updated back in the 50's so it is technically modern. My 94 trapper 45LC will shoot into an inch and half at 200 if I don't flinch while...

    Suppressors 6.5CM vs 308 pressure levels inside a can

    Re: 6.5CM vs 308 pressure levels inside a can Adjusting a 140 Amax to get 2710fps with 42.1grn of H4350 out of a 24 inch barrel I get a muzzle pressure of 9369psi and 98.63 percentage burned. That is plenty low enough for any 308 can out there. Also the 6.5CM has less case capacity than...

    Suppressors AAC 7.62 SDN-6 wiggleage?

    Re: AAC 7.62 SDN-6 wiggleage? I think I will save the barrel stub on the next barrel I shorten just to make a quick jig for this exact thing. Just thread on, chuck up and spin.

    Re: 6.5CM vs 308 pressure levels inside a can If you can give me some loads you will be running I can run them through QuickLoad and tell you the muzzle presure from that. I just need some basic load data. I will run it compared to maximum load data for the 175MK as listed on sierra's page...

    Suppressors I got my tax stamp back on my first centerfire can

    Re: I got my tax stamp back on my first centerfire can Not really the problem in fact on the trust I have my parents on it so between that and the power of attorney they can pick it up but that isn't the problem. The problem is I can't shoot it after waiting 8 months.

    Suppressors I got my tax stamp back on my first centerfire can

    Re: I got my tax stamp back on my first centerfire can My NFA dealer has said they have no problem holding onto any items I purchase from them while over here. They keep a running tab for me and I pay it while on R&R. I am contractor now not active duty so that makes it worth coming over...

    Selecting an action to SBR

    Re: Selecting an action to SBR For shooting the 220's subsonic I was going to just use 300 AAC as I already have everything I would need and I wouldn't have to dig into my trailboss powder. I would rather use that in the pistols. The 308 barrel is going to be 14 inchs because I can get two...

    Selecting an action to SBR

    I would like to have one of my rifles SBRed for using a few different calibers with my AAC SDN-6. I have a 700 long and short action both trued and with pinned recoil lugs for use as switch barrel. But I am leaning more heavily toward using my only savage action for this as I can change out...

    Re: MK13 MOD6/300WM MK248 MOD1 Is the barrel on that hammer forger? I am only asking because of the markings on it in the picture of your threading job. And I was also interested in the total weight of the rifle and optic? I like it but I haven't felt an AX chassis myself yet so...

    Gunsmithing How to smoothen bolt up?

    Re: How to smoothen bolt up? I would just shoot it as is. Is it really that much of a hassle to add a few extra ounces to the effort? I never even noticed any binding or sluggishness on mine until later down the road realizing that the bolt would slide back if you tilted the rifle back with...
