    Do muzzle brakes affect accuracy???

    Re: Do muzzle brakes affect accuracy??? IMO, it can have an effect on barrel harmonics as well as how the spent gasses exit the barrel (ie turbulence). I have a large variety of breaks and supressors that I have swapped out on various rifles, both semi and bolt action. Shooting paper from a...

    Sniper/Long Range Stock for AR

    Re: Sniper/Long Range Stock for AR The A2 works for me. You can add weight to an A2 in the form of the trimable lead weight that goes in the stock compartment. Its cheap and easy. Paying $200+ for the bling factor of an adjustable buttstock on my varminters is just a bit too unreasonable...

    Rifle Scopes What cartridge would you use a 8-32x scope for?

    Re: What cartridge would you use a 8-32x scope for? I use Swarovski glass on all of my long range sticks. As long as you are using a quality scope, the ability to dial up high magnification is just another tool in your tool box. I varmint and hunt larger game quite alot with my scope...

    Ammunition (Non-reloads) Question?

    Re: Ammunition (Non-reloads) Question? What they said; most match ammo is likely to work very well. Buy a variety and see what yours likes. These work particularly well in my rifles. Federal Gold Medal Match 168gr and 175gr Lapua Scenar Hornady TAP 168gr and 178gr Hornady Amax 168gr...

    Gunsmithing Lathe and mill suggestions

    Re: Lathe and mill suggestions Rotary are better suited to handle the startup current that large motors require. Generally compressors and such take huge amounts of startup current. Lathes and mills dont have the surge, but run alot of equipment concurrently so I made sure to get a large-ish...

    5000 meters+ Supersonic (*Updated with pics*)

    Re: 5000 meters+ Supersonic JD of SSK Industries has a 14.5mm (.585") weapon that throws a 1173 gr bullet and has sub MOA accuracy. He produces the custom cartridge based on the 50 BMG and builds complete weapons. My point here though is that he obtained a Destructive Device exemption (Sweet!).

    Gunsmithing Lathe and mill suggestions

    Re: Lathe and mill suggestions Oh, it just occurred to me, the better equipment that you are going to find also requires 3 phase, 220 VAC. You may be able to pull that in off of the pole outside your house. I was not so lucky. Fortunately you can get a 3 phase generator that is simply an...

    Gunsmithing Lathe and mill suggestions

    Re: Lathe and mill suggestions You want a Hardinge screw lathe like a DSM-59. It is smallish but very precise and is capable of threading barrels or fabricating firing pins. If you choose another type of lathe, I would steer clear of gear head lathes as the free play in the gear assy induces...

    Midway's Birthday Discount

    Re: Midway's Birthday Discount Im thinking it was along the lines of 10%. It was kind of odd when I put my order together. It seemed that the discount was only on certain items. Some things didnt get discounted while others did. Overall, they have good prices, so any savings over their...

    Midway USA shipping problem?

    Tempted to start some new target practice

    Re: Tempted to start some new target practice I believe that antifeeze has been altered to be sour to animals so they wont drink it. That change was supposed to have occurred a few years back. Check your local laws before shooting a dog, even if it is on your property. I know that in...
