    It's now official. JTAC Ranch closing

    So much for Polk being a 2A sanctuary, lol. This place needed Grady Judd

    Boy don't I feel stupid with a $1k .300 Norma barrel...

    It's now official. JTAC Ranch closing

    Wow, I'm not sure where at least two YT channels will film now. It doesn't surprise me, I never cared for how it was run.

    Beginner - need equipment recommendations and advice

    First thing. I don't own a turret press but am not knocking them. I have a purchased in the 90's 550b (actually my 2nd) and same timeframe RCBS Rockchucker single stage. The RCBS has a priming system but it didn't work well for me. I used the Lee hand priming tool for years. Everybody has...

    Beginner - need equipment recommendations and advice

    I've read through this entirely and IF you decide to actually buy, I would go with what others suggested and get a Dillon 550C. I really don't think you can grasp what a pain pistol ammo is on a single stage. You can setup Dillon tool heads for all your calibers. If you spent more $ you...

    WOA accuracy issues, my experience… (update 9/24/2023)

    I'll give the same answer as before. I stripped the copper out of my barrel after 100 or so rounds and never had a problem again. Your combination of cleaning doesn't feature anything ammonia based like Sweets or the Barnes CR stuff. If that doesn't do it, see if they'll return it.

    Guns I laughed at but now regret not buying

    Don't be too hard on yourself. "Spazz" used to mean something else back then, lol.

    Guns I laughed at but now regret not buying

    When it was the DCM instead of CMP, I should've bought a truck full of Garands. 180 a piece in the early 90's. Should've bought SKS crates and all the Guatemalan 5.56 and Portuguese 7.62x51.

    .308 win with plus 1 gas

    I have a +2 20" X-Caliber that's pretty much always shot suppressed. So far it's my favorite .308 barrel and absolutely no problem with an AGB.

    PWS frustration

    Where did you get your LC brass? I've had problems with processed stuff if it wasn't run through a small base sizer as it seems safe to say it would've been fired out of machine guns. For that matter I've seen problems buying LC primed/pulled cases where they've stretched the neck pulling the...

    White oak armament accuracy

    My 1st WOA barrel was a 16" and it did not do well for the first 100 rounds. I cleaned it and stripped all the copper out and it's been sub-moa since. I have no idea what reamer they use but it seems like their barrels favor the SMK and since it's a high power shop I guess that would make...

    m14 , civilian sales ?

    No. The CMP used to be known as DCM, Director of Civilian Marksmanship, IIRC. DCM clubs had some deactivated M14s but the majority of the rifles provided were M1 Garands. The club would give you a rifle and ammo to use at competitions. When the DCM ended I believe the rifles had to be...

    Which bullet is the Sierra 77 grain Tipped MatchKing and which bullet is . . .

    But how do the ABC's shoot?

    Ruger SFAR small frame 308, 6.8 pounds

    This is the problem with .308 gassers. They have to be able to run on underpowered 147 ball. Or the CS phone will be jammed with people complaining about how it won't run Wolf. Then when you use something with some horsepower you're over gassed. Maybe they have to re-think that gas valve...

    Who has upgraded their 10/22?

    The best 10/22 contains no Ruger parts.

    Gluten for punishment...a 5.45x39 AR

    There was a reason when you could get the Russian spam cans. Naturally I got in at the tail end and paid .16/round rather than less than .10. A wooden crate, two cans for 2,160 rounds for $350 still wasn't bad.

    Suppressors Form 4 wait time

    Quick question for all as you've helped me previously in this process. Should I be able to see the forms filed in my name under submitted/ in process on the eforms website? I'm starting to get nervous because everybody else is hitting and the recents are all about my same timeframe. TIA.
