    Looking for a better 223 magazine option

    I recently looked into a 223 trainer for the first time, and I'm a bit dismayed at the dismal magazine options that seem to be available. I'll probably end up using several of the MDT polymer 223 mags, but I'm quite surprised that no one has came up with a more efficient magazine option. I...

    Just a little weekend project....

    Man I am so jealous of your projects Sirhr! I wish I had a portion of your cool toys, and most of all your free time! ;)

    My new setup. Now some advice. Please.

    My only thought would be that your current setup is great, if it is working for you! If you have a concentricity problem, then maybe worry about which brand of dies is “best”... but I’d try to avoid fixing problems you don’t have. Are you having success with your reloading efforts? Do you need...

    Building the Perfect Reloading Room

    Moving for the first time in 20 years... here is the start to my new gun room. This bench is my “reloading side”, the other half of the room will be for working on rifles. I’ll probably work on getting all my crap in there, start the process of figuring out where and how I want stuff to be...

    Gunsmithing Muzzle Break For Proof Sendero

    Josh would it be possible to get a Jet Blast and a Rocket Scientist without the locking collar? I’ve got a 6.5 Creedmoor build that a Jet Blast would be perfect for, and a 338-375 build that could benefit from the reduced blast signature a Rocket Scientist provides. Both builds need to have...

    Gunsmithing Tubb's Fire Lapping System

    Thanks for sharing your experience Subwrx. I’ve always wondered if fire lapping would improve some of the extra rough factory barrels I’ve came across. I never did take the gamble, and ended up rebarreling or just selling/trading for something else. Pretty much exactly the same thought process...

    Gunsmithing building a 6.5 cm or rem 260

    I’m not claiming to be an expert, but ordering a 260 reamer with freebore specified that allows you to touch the lands inside a magazine isn’t all that hard... I did it, and it’s been working great for several years. I shoot 140 RDF’s, but I set it up for Bergers and added just a touch of extra...

    Well so I guess they really are bad.

    Wow what a dog pile... I for one am appreciative of the information you are trying to convey, 29. I always categorized the xmark as less desirable, but now I am aware of at least one crappy way they have actually caused problems. Thank you for sharing valuable information that is pertinent to...

    Looking for some RL33 thoughts - 300g OTM in 338 LM

    Thanks for the info, Ryguy. I shot some groups w/my H1000 node (90.5g being the middle of #5/6/7) and got 1" groups at my three hundred yard range. Reverse calculating velocity from my drop I'm at 2,775 fps. All of which is good and well, so I guess i'll have to continue happily on without...

    Looking for some RL33 thoughts - 300g OTM in 338 LM

    So do you think my theory of barrel length/burn time limitation causing a threshold of sorts holds up, based on the "lot of people you have seen" jkonzal? Or does it take an improved/edge case capacity to cram enough in there to make the difference as Dogtown suggests? Ite82 do know what...

    Looking for some RL33 thoughts - 300g OTM in 338 LM

    So almost 2 years ago at the 2012 SHOT show RL33 was rolled out, purported to be the pinnacle of technological advancement in propellant technology due to impregnating the powder kernals with burn controlling compounds. This delays the initial pressure spike allowing a longer more consistant...

    Washington state monthly matches at Upper Nisqually Sportsman's Club

    Anyone happen to know what elevation the range is at? I'd like to get my dope figured out before I get there... All I can find on the Internets is the town of Nisqually seems to be 450-500 ft, but I have no idea if that's relevant to the range.

    JP LRP .308 favorite loads

    300 BLK happens to be another of my favorites to load for! If you do bark up that tree let me know! Unless like me you prefer to have it on your shelf just in case, you are welcome to borrow my copy anytime!

    Hello all! New-ish to the forum, been lurking around for a while, and just found this thread! I'm in Longview WA, and would love to get more involved in local (relatively speaking!) shooting events... I've been a gun nut my whole life, really into reloading... only a couple years into the whole...
