    SD's

    4.3 with ES of 21. If I remember correctly it was only 2 or 3 shots that made that ES. I agree SD is a much better number.

    6 GT Load Suggestions & Suppressor Pressure Signs!?

    I have seen this twice now shooting in cold weather. Was not sure why it was happening. I did remember it was after I took a break and let the gun / can cool. I think next time out I will take a cleaning rod and run a couple dry patches before I start my next string. This makes a lot of...

    6 GT Load Suggestions & Suppressor Pressure Signs!?

    You stated you cannot drop a bullet in a fired case. How tight is it? What is the measurement of the neck without bullet, with bullet and fired? What is the neck wall thickness? It is sounding like you either have thick brass or a tight chamber neck. If this is the case you will need to...

    6 GT Load Suggestions & Suppressor Pressure Signs!?

    Those are your 2 options. It will not get better, if anything it will get worse. I just had similar issue with one of my GTs running suppressed. Started seeing pressure around 175 rounds between cleanings. Being new to running suppressed all the time I asked around and was told it happens...

    Maggie’s Surrender a Suppressor

    Then create a trust with another family member or friend. And you really miss the point of the trust. If you create a trust with the wife then she does not have to deal with ATF or anyone else. She is the legal owner and can sell, destroy or what ever she wants to do with them. I would...

    Maggie’s Surrender a Suppressor

    Create a gun trust, put them on the trust. My Wife and I have all our NFA stuff on our gun trust.

    Sierra 183 SMK Length Change?

    This is what I found with Google search: Yes, Sierra Bullets has updated their 183 grain bullet design, specifically within their MatchKing line, featuring a new, more elongated ogive and a refined meplat for increased ballistic coefficient and accuracy; this change is considered a recent...

    6.5 Creedmoor

    Did you mean H4350 or H4831. Never heard of H4830. I ran 4831sc for a bit and you can run more than 42.5 without issue.

    Ingenuity Powder System

    I use the aluminum top off a bottle of tin cup Bourbon on one of my scales. Powder does not stick.

    Hornady Bullet Comparator and OAL Tool Measures over .050" too short

    Done this multiple times on multiple barrels. Doing it my way with the cleaning rod vs bolt lift feeling for click and all measurements were within .005. I do it with the cleaning rod. Taking apart all these guns becomes a pain and time wise using the cleaning rod is faster. Just takes...

    Hornady Bullet Comparator and OAL Tool Measures over .050" too short

    Lots of info on here too. This has been covered many times. I use a cleaning rod and work the bullet back and forth. Takes some practice as you have to hold the tool in place at the same time. But you can feel the bullet engage the lands, I can feel it "tap" and get very consistent...

    How many loads did YOUR last batch of brass last YOU?

    Wife's 6GT is on 13th and 14th firing with no signs of giving up the ghost. Alpha OCD, Berger 109 at 2930 with 33.7 of RL15.5. The barrel is at 2800ish rounds and still going. Just went from 33.4 to 33.7 as the barrel is starting to die, but the brass is still good. Will run new brass once...

    25GT Load Data.

    37.5 to 38.5 was 2704 to 2764, best group was 38.5. I did not keep data. Have a shop full of guns to do load work on, so I don't keep that stuff. Data is kept in quick load.

    25GT Load Data.

    You can run a full case without pressure. I did not see the results I was looking for, which was disappointing as I run 37.5 in my 22 and 6gts with great results. It starts to compress around 38. All the other powders produced better results in the 25gt. I may try it again now that I have...
