It surprises me that people use that AR stuff given how punctilious we reloaders are about same lot, humidity, book max, 0.02 grains resolution, "to the kernel", runout, primer depth etc
Then shoot a completely unknown and unlabeled powder? Weird.
I assumed that you modified it? Because I keep refreshing his website and I don’t see that. But it would not surprise me at all and it would solidify my decision to proceed with the printed precision trickier instead
Yeah it’s easy to overlook in the loading manual - who would think that u would use a rifle primer in a pistol cartridge?
But it is clearly stated in the reloading manuals, because the anvil on a pistol primer is not thick and strong enough to handle the PSI that a 460 generates.
There was an...
I don’t know for sure about the 500 Smith & Wesson Magnum but the 460 Smith & Wesson Magnum uses rifle primers not pistol primers.
Load the 460 using pistol primers and you are gonna have a regrettable day. Ask me how I know
You guys had me worried about the downside of my 19 to one odds wager when you said the app was updated and then I realized it’s the test flight app so I feel confident again
Yet another release date estimate is all but past, so I give it 95% probability or greater that we are looking at September or later. Let me know if you want to bet against me that is 19 to one odds. On a $10 wager, you win $190 if I am wrong and they ship before September
Blast shield and weights added
I like the setup a lot for comfortable shooting.
But if you’re in the USA, find an AR50 brake or a K&P clam shell style brake, rather than a shark (fish gill) style brake.
Is it me or has the thread slowed down a little bit in the last year?
Does this mean everyone has stocked up on everything they need or is it so bleak that there’s nothing even to post anymore?
Yeah, I posted for the imbedded video of the dude sea-sawing a rifle off a window sill with another guy feeding him rounds, presumably shooting at the distant building. I thought that was hilarious
If you got a drone over there by the target, Y the fuck are you taking a 2.5 mile shot? Just kill 'em with the drone, dude.
They're also saying "AI guidance" - fuck, AI couldn't guide me 2.5 miles home on my bicycle today after dropping off my kids at school.
Watch the embedded video, it's...
Been there brother.
I also changed my bipod to an EI along the way, and learned to get scopes w a forgiving eyebox to allow more flexibility to build a good shooting position to handle the recoil
338 separates boys and amateurs from men and experts for sure
^that's excellent shooting, kudos!
I'm on my 4th 338 barrel in this platform since 2012. (She's a 34" hammer on a K&P blank by E-S Tactical.)
I've always gotten them to shoot, despite some growing pains along the way. Things like top rail was loose, false pressure signs from neck sizing and...
