    Training Courses AAR - K&M Precision Comprehensive PR Course (August 4-7th)

    The comprehensive course was awesome and I'll be back. An acceptable substitute to high quality bourbon is rum, as one of my classmates owns the company and brought two bottles.

    Should work just fine. That said, I know a guy with an extra Gen 2 handguard.

    Training Courses AAR - K&M Precision Comprehensive PR Course (August 4-7th)

    So...after an amazing week in Tennessee, I figured an after action report from an average shooter, is warranted to help with folks looking to decide if traveling to a class is for them and if a facility like K&M is an option. Please feel free to ask any questions and I'll happily answer. I...

    Another vote for Nick Owens at Owens Armory. They're building my 6CM right now and it's an easy drive from Phoenix Metro to Chino Valley.

    Tikka Bottom Metal Compatibility Questions

    Yeah, I'm not married to the CDI bottom metal. I like the Atlas Worxs one as well. Just would like to get to bedding and shooting rather than waiting for inletting.

    Tikka Bottom Metal Compatibility Questions

    So...I have a T3 (not a CTR) that I'm building into a 6mm Creedmoor. While I like chassis's, I think I'm going to with a McMillan stock for this. Here's where it gets complicated. 1. If the stock is inlet for T3 (not CTR) bottom metal, are there any DBM systems that are replacements for that...

    So for you even the 105gr Berger Hybrids were a no bueno?

    Which insert for Hornady case comparator and headspace comparator for 6mm Creedmoor?

    The tap is a 5/16-36 tap, a particularly difficult one to find. There is an article on Accurateshooter.com that talks about it. I attempted to order it from Amazon, but they lost it in transit. Ended up going to Drills and Cutters (or something like that) and it showed up in a couple of days...

    6mm Creedmoor (Forming and shenanigans)

    I'm fairly certain that the Winchester brass is just branded Hornady manufacture.

    6mm Creedmoor (Forming and shenanigans)

    Hi guys, I've got a TON of Winchester 6.5CM lying around and given I had a 6mm Proof barrel lying around, figured why not go 6CM. 1. I understand that forming is as easy as putting it into a FL sizing die. Anyone know what the "normal," non-bushing dimension is and as a result what the...

    Digital scales vs. Balances

    The reality is that I need to build a second bench in my office and just seat bullets while at my desk.

    Digital scales vs. Balances

    Yeah, as stated, I have 2 Chargemasters myself. Just want something a little more convenient (smaller work space) I suppose.

    Digital scales vs. Balances

    Don't suppose you have that combo still. :-)

    Digital scales vs. Balances

    Hi Rob. Yeah it seems with a good beam scale, a relatively accurate powder dispenser (don't NEED a Harrell, but a Uniflow or T7? would do the trick to get you close) and a trickler like the Omega 2, is just as fast, if not faster than running dual Chargemasters. Well that takes the GemPro off...

    Digital scales vs. Balances

    So, here's the story. I have two RCBS Chargemasters that thus far has been pretty nice. The only two negatives that I can site are one runs a bit faster than I'd like (even with reprogramming) and the combination takes up a little bit too much space. I was visiting a friend a couple of days...
