    Powder IN-STOCK thread

    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.

    Ingenuity Powder System

    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

    With Anzio essentially defunct, is anyone else making 20mm or larger modern rifles available in the U.S.?

    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

    Ingenuity Powder System

    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

    Ingenuity Powder System

    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

    Any Desert Tech HTI 50 BMG Owners?

    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.

    Any Desert Tech HTI 50 BMG Owners?

    Try to get an AR50 brake or a K&P. Side port brakes are suboptimal for 50

    Powder IN-STOCK thread

    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?

    Ukraine post new world record for a sniper kill reported in New York Post August 20 2025

    He can't handle that recoil cuz of his heart transplant. Might rip his zipper open.

    Ukraine post new world record for a sniper kill reported in New York Post August 20 2025

    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...

    Accuracy International AX50

    IMO, yes. The effect is real, and dramatic, esp with hot temps and long(er) strings. I smoked a 375 bbl in 500 rounds
