    Dirty Barrel Experiments

    Carbon ring will do that. Had the pressure spikes you experienced as well only about 250 rounds in since last cleaning (although I never attacked the throat to clean out carbon ring) I was getting velocity increases of about 100 fps on my established load of 41.4 gr. of RL16 in GWT brass...

    Factory Rifle - Bergara vs Tikka

    I would probably pick Tikka, unless you HAVE to have a 700 clone action. The Tikka does not need blueprinting if you want to accurize later on, simply get a shouldered prefit for it and headspace it. Bolt is incredibly smooth, and has tons of aftermarket support. (not as much as R700 actions)...

    Carbon Fiber barrel Cerakoting?

    The issue is that in order to Cerakote, you have to media-blast, and doing so will remove the protective finish on the carbon wrap, which is more than likely a matte clearcoat. I coat the exposed steel parts only, masking the rest of it off. I think someone mentioned Krylon, that should work...

    The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!

    The Barrett barrels are extremely good. My 338LM barrel has over 3300 rounds through it now, bore looks like crap and is fire-cracked like crazy, however still prints 1/4 MOA groups. It refuses to die. Don't discount the factory barrels, they're tough as nails and super precise.

    Era Tac adjustable mount?

    That rig is sick. CDX 50? Or a 416? or both?

    WTB POF Ultimate BCG HELP!

    I might have a 5.56. Let me check when I get home. It would be the BCG only. I don't think I have the bolt anymore.

    M110 clone help! Please

    What color is that? If cerakote, mind sharing the color code or mix ratio? It's bad ass. The rifle is sick too.

    KRG Whiskey 3 Chassis-Let's See Them

    Thank you sir, I've made the adjustments and it appears that when I installed the ARCA plate on the bottom I may have allowed some forward movement on the handguard, but the trigger guard itself seems to have moved "down", increasing space between the mag catch and action enough to cause the...

    Cerakote woes and issues

    Whenever I blast barrels for cerakote, I plug them before blast and of course during coating. There is always a tiny amount of media in the barrel. I hose the barrels out with high pressure water, and then do a normal clean/oil/dry routine before reassembly. That media will wear out your...

    KRG Whiskey 3 Chassis-Let's See Them

    Thanks I will try that. Did these instructions come with the chassis? I've never seen them.

    KRG Whiskey 3 Chassis-Let's See Them

    This magwell alignment you speak of, I've been searching online for days trying to find how to do it. I have a KRG SOTIC rifle in the W3 and recently started having issues with the AICS mags having too much play in the well. (as in, 1/4 inch of movement up and down after latching, causing...

    KRG Whiskey 3 Gen 4 magazine problem

    Hopefully I can resurrect this thread....I have a SOTIC in the W3 chassis, and just all of a sudden I'm having magazine fitment issues. They don't fall out, but there is a lot of play up and down (with the magazine latched in place) which is causing nosedives after the first round is fired. I...

    Cleaner Running Suppressor Options for Semi-Autos

    All suppressors except for OSS and Larue Tranquilo are going to cake your gun with carbon. Physics. Even piston guns get caked. I run Surefire SOCOM cans that are supposed to be low-backpressure cans, and I guess they're better at that than other baffle cans, but flowthrough cans are going to...

    JP Enterprise Captured Buffer system

    Love the FMOS. I have two and want two more. The finish is exceptional and they clean up extremely easy. One has over 1000 rounds through it and the carrier shows zero wear on the rails. That QPQ finish is tough yet smooth. I have an LWRC with Nickel Boron coating that is horrible and...

    JP Enterprise Captured Buffer system

    Yeah, but they're so smoooooooth..... I agree they're expensive, but the tunability is really what sets them apart. I have one in all my AR's, as well as an LMT MWS which is super tame now.

    5700 Elite AB with Link - Wind speed?

    Thanks for the mature responses that warranted trolling cause of dumb question :)

    5700 Elite AB with Link - Wind speed?

    Strange, cause mine is always in ballistics mode....I'll check it out when I go home. I probably should brush up on the manuals. Thanks

    5700 Elite AB with Link - Wind speed?

    Does the 5700 Elite actually tell you what the wind speed is? For the life of me, at the range the other day someone asked me what the wind speed was, and I was like "Of course I know what it's gusting to, I have a Kestrel here, hold on" Couldn't find it. Anywhere on the damn thing. I know...

    LMT .308 MWS

    The Lancer AWM 7 (I think that's the designation) are amazing in the LMT and (and KAC from what I've been told) Probably the best mag next to a true KAC or Larue mag at half the price. They're good to go.

    LMT .308 MWS

    I know for a fact that the JP High-Pressure Bolt works, however you need to purchase the small diameter firing pin as well.
