    Newbie Suppressor Recommendation

    Well I have an Ultra 9 and a Dominus SR so I'm somewhat biased. If cans exist out there that are better and don't hinder your accuracy or at least leave it where it was I don't know of them. And I won't know of them because I don't have that kind of $ nor am I going to be given any for testing...

    What about FN .264 LICC?

    This article is quoting the tests in the past while speaking of the NGSW. Even an idiot general gives his two cents. This appears to be .30/06 all over again with "we have all this brass, let's just neck it down."...

    What about FN .264 LICC?

    There is a lot of video with Steve Holland explaining the development of the 6.8 SPC. Dr. Gary Roberts was involved as well and per Steve, THAT'S why the .27 caliber was chosen. They wanted a cartridge that did as much or more damage as the 7.62x39. I think every bullet combination was actually...

    Issues with Lantec Ebcg not going fully into battery. Suggestions?

    What are you using for lube? I have one and use synthetic motor oil and mine stays wet suppressed. Mine is NiB, not TiN however.

    Guns I laughed at but now regret not buying

    The dirtiest, greasiest M14 mags were $35 at Numrich back then.

    What rifle for decked box in truck for shtf

    If I was inclined to keep a rifle within easy reach in a truck I'd try to find something like the Vertx VTAC rifle scabbard that mounts behind the passenger seat. It's going to have to be something like Jihadi Day for me to think I can get away with launching rifle rounds. If I can't run them...

    Whats the most powerful round I can put in an AR-10 build?

    Obviously you've never heard of Ethan Place. Why not just see if Noreen Firearms still makes a semi .338 Lapua?

    The primed 5.56 brass equivalent of Trader Joe's Two-buck Chuck

    I bought a thousand of each. I've only used about 300 or so of the better brass. 23.3 grains of 8208xbr and 77s. Working very well for me and no need to hunt prepped LC brass.

    That will be nice since JTAC is going extinct

    It's now official. JTAC Ranch closing

    I went out yesterday. The militia meeting was finishing up when I got there. That was actually nice as Open Path app wouldn't let me in the LR gate and they were kind enough to take their side by side down and open the gate for me. A few of them scampered over to the 2000 with their...

    Now, I'm going to have to try those brats. I used to get a particular kind in Germany and the only place I found the same thing was online in Wisconsin and it's not cheap to get them down here. While I liked the fact that this place was always self RO, I always marveled at how I never saw...

    You ever buy stuff from Rick's butcher shop next door? I am jealous of all you independently wealthy people getting to shoot on work days, lol. I wish they'd at least run Sundays until they close. If you want a good laugh, go read the comments on their post from a year ago summer when they...

    FYI, WOA sale on the 19th if you're looking for a barrel

    I'm not affiliated with them, same sale as last year.

    Yep, you can shoot it as hot as you want and never worry about your barrel drooping. It's just the dripping later, lol.

    See if "The Villages" would just play their cards right, they could cover all the LR shooters looking for retirement with just one good range, lmao.

    The MK12 at home…by PSA

    Every time you buy PRI, Steve Holland sheds a tear, lmao.

    Remington 40X 22LR

    While I've never had a problem with them, they've developed a hit or miss reputation shall we say. Why not a Vudoo or RimX?

    It's now official. JTAC Ranch closing

    Yes but this is where the plot thickens for me. I remember hearing very early on that the reason for all the delays was because they switched properties with someone, don't ask me who does this, and that was why they opened late. Whether any of that is true or matters is irrelevant but I find...
