    Gunsmithing Savage LA Mag Box Length

    I have a Rock Creek 1/10 twist 30" 5r on the way, and am trying to decide if I'm going to re-barrel my Savage 112bvss, or just start over with a Rem700 action. I want to take full advantage of the long barrel and the Berger 230gr OTM's, and am wondering if the short OAL that the Savage mag box...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex PST v. Nightforce v. Other?

    Re: Vortex PST v. Nightforce v. Other? Man, I wanted a PST for a long time. Finally got one last fall, 2.5x10, and after getting out and using it at multiple ranges out to 1k, I am disappointed in the glass quality. Looking at 1 inch white squares at 100yds, I had a really hard time...

    Low Mass Bolt & Carrier in the AR10

    Re: Low Mass Bolt & Carrier in the AR10 I tested the Spike's Dyna-Comp on my AR10a4 carbine yesterday, and can't really say that it's an improvement over the PRI QC brake as far as recoil reduction or sight picture retention off hand. I did realize that the three oz. buffer isn't going to cut...

    tula primers... good?

    Re: tula primers... good? If there is truth to these primers being made in the same factory as Wolf primers, perhaps they are also slightly tighter fitting than the domestic brands that are so widely available here. I've been waiting two years for Wolf large rifle magnum primers to be...

    Low Mass Bolt & Carrier in the AR10

    Re: Low Mass Bolt & Carrier in the AR10 I installed a PRI adjustable gas block and a P.O.F. roller cam pin yesterday and tested the AR10A4CAR today with a 168gr SMK, 44gr Varget load. I was able to adjust the gas down to one turn out from bottom with the H3 Buffer, and still cycle. I removed...

    300 Win mag and nosler Accubonds

    Re: 300 Win mag and nosler Accubonds I've tried a fair amount of load combos and I have settled on 75.5gr H4831-sc at 3050fps. It has been really consistently accurate in two different .300WM rifles for me.

    Re: I couldn't believe this one mjk0352, thanks for sharing the picture. I am bummed for your buddy, as this will be a setback for him. I realize that there are a lot of folks who make their living marketing, selling and using these tools, and can see how some of them can get a little...

    Re: I couldn't believe this one Anyone who is butt hurt about this needs a serious reality check. This is the internet. No one , and nothing is safe from scrutiny. I think it's hilarious that there are people on the edge of their seats, who can't stand to not know how this came about.

    Alliants new Power Pro 2000mr

    Re: Alliants new Power Pro 2000mr Wow. That looks promising! I would like to test those combos myself for velocity. What kind of pressure signs did you see? My testing with 2000mr & 190smk's last sunday was pointless as I started way too low at 43.6gr. It yielded a tight .65" 5 shot group at...

    RL 15 in Grendel

    Re: RL 15 in Grendel I have tested Reloder 15 in my AA Grendel Hunter, and using 123gr Scenars, could only get them to go 2450fps. Accuracy was outstanding, but I wanted 2550 fps, and deformed some Scenars trying to cram more RL15 under the bullet. If that was the only powder I had, I would...

    10mm loads with KKM barrel - Caution

    Re: 10mm loads with KKM barrel - Caution I Started down 2 grains from max load using IMR data, and ended up pushing Nosler 135gr at 1650fps with 12gr. 800x through my KKM. The Wincester primers were a little flat. I'm gonna back off a little more & use harder primers.

    WTK: Remington 700 SPS Tact. AAC-SD questions

    Re: WTK: Remington 700 SPS Tact. AAC-SD questions Nifty shooting. By chance, can you tell by looking down the muzzle if the barrel is 5 groove or 6 groove?

    Low Mass Bolt & Carrier in the AR10

    Re: Low Mass Bolt & Carrier in the AR10 With the carrier weight and rifle length FF handguard & other accessories they both weighed in at about 9 1/2 lbs. POF carbine is all stock parts. I'ts my belief that both 5R and polygonal twist rifling reduce pressure, and therefore, reduce recoil, how...

    Low Mass Bolt & Carrier in the AR10

    I shot a friends POF .308 carbine the other day and it seemed a lot nicer shooting than my Armalite AR10 carbine.I use a PRI QCB brake on it, and a Tubb carrier weight system with it, but the POF was able to get faster follow up shots. I would like to explore modifications that will reduce the...

    Battlecomp: Best money I've spent in a while!

    Re: Battlecomp: Best money I've spent in a while! Have you shot any other brakes on your MWS? I have a PRI QCB on my AR10 carbine, but it's pretty obnoxious, even when behind the trigger. the BABC seems like it would break up the concussiveness by virtue of design, especially for .308. Anyone...
