    .458 Socom Builder

    Tromix is the good stuff. They used to do barrels and prefits, but I don't think they do bolt gun barrels now unfortunately.

    ideal barrel length to rebarrel with

    .338 for me is a go long kinda tool, so I prefer the free speed a longer barrel offers. I'd go 28 on the short side, 32 on the long end. If I had to carry it a lot, a nice lighter profile barrel at about 28 inches would work well for me. If stationary hunting I'd probably bias to longer.

    Tavor: acute change in accuracy

    I'd bet something is lose. I've shot a lot of tavor and it will ring 100 yard steel and clays no problem. Could even be barrel worked loose, optic mount, bad optic, rail still come loose or another hidden screw loose.

    Question on components per application

    I'll say I've not had federal brass hold up as well as others. I use it for low priority shooting and for when I know the weeds are gonna keep my brass. Lake city brass tends to do well, starline too. Not lapua good, but good. I'd use lapua to have a load for when you need to send the best...

    Considering new press

    I like the t7 a lot. It and the dillon 550 do most of the work here. I've never used the primer setup on the t7... so I cannot say it's bad, just that I was already in bed with another method that's served me well. I prime precision stuff on the bench mounted rcbs primer. Love it. Otherwise the...

    Man shot for warrant over a weed eater. Wrong house?

    Single purpose cases do set ya up for the loss. Lose the cop bait bags. A taken down 18inch ar fits well in a bass ukulele case if you didn't know. Shorter more fun stuff? The sky is the limit. Hell, I'd say it'd be hard to demonstrate probable cause to even fuck with the ukulele unless you're...

    Kids hunting rifle?

    Ar15 with adjustable stock is hard to argue with in my book here if usable where you are. That 6 mm with a 5 round mag, 1 or 2 loaded or whatever you like would make perfect deer medicine! I'd never talk another man out of buying a rifle though. If it fits her OK, a nice .243, 6mm or .223 (...

    Cartridges for plinking suggestions

    .223 .223 wylde 5.56 or .223ai bolt rifle set up for 75g class bullets is probably my most fired rifle. Will shoot like the big rifle without its cost blast or recoil! Reload some nice ammo and a handy .223 bolt will shoot cans easily all day at your range without breaking the bank. Might even...

    Bullet and powder advice for 1:8 .223 for target/coyote shooting

    The 75 rmr bullets are quite good for typical shooting, and the price is right. 69smk will do fine without breaking the bank. Have shot tons of them and no complaints. 77 is great too, but costs more and may not be worth it to ya. I like the 75amax a lot when you have good room in the mag or...

    Resizing 50 bmg m2 machine gun brass, anyone near Georgia to help?

    Wow. That's rough. What press are you using? Can you slowly size a little at a time, back off lube as needed and size a little more... repeat?

    Resizing 50 bmg m2 machine gun brass, anyone near Georgia to help?

    Try to anneal a couple and see if it helps. Get some imperial sizing wax too. I had some horrible 50 brass like that. Did manage to size some, then necks cracked on first fire lol... lame. I annealed the others and no neck splits AND I could size them. May help your case too! You may need...

    Bolt gun Load development - with or without a suppressor?

    ^ yep like to make sure nothing odd... Otherwise I develop the load how it will be shot. With a can mostly? Then worked up with a can. Naked muzzle? Naked development.

    Alternative to .223?

    I'd be solidly in the buy a bolt and run .223 and 5.56 camp. Economical, easy to shoot, cheap, plenty of effective target range, great barrel life, versatile... on and on. Works great on deer with proper bullet inside 200 yards. I love my 5.56 and 223 wylde bolt guns. They probably get shot...
