    Compass lake engineering 17.9" SPR barrel.

    I had CLE build me a bull barrel upper about 10 years ago. I wanted a space gun. It was expensive, but one of the most accurate rifles I own. They were good to deal with. Shipped rather quickly. They build uppers for the high power crowd at that time. I would not hesitate to deal with...

    375HH shooters

    Barnes manual #3 list H4895 67.0/min to 72.0/max. 2601/2791 fps. It recommends Varget 68.0 up to 73.0, 2527/2709. I have used 69.0 of Varget. 270 XLC FB Barnes bullet. CCI250 primer, Winchester brass. I like IMR 4064 which is also a recommended powder. But do not see much difference...

    300 blackout loading data for rem 700 16 inch bbl

    H110 or 296 work great for the supersonic loads. (Lighter bullets). I have only used AA1680 with the subsonic heavy bullets. I would not use any of the powers you have listed under heavy subsonic bullets.

    What trigger should I get?

    Geiselle is the way to go. I have a Jewel and several of the Giessele. (Not sure how to spell). They have a non adjustable that runs around 160. The least expensive they have. I just put one in my bosses AR10. He loves it. I have been using their triggers for over 10 years and will never...

    Suppressors Suppressor or not?

    I saw the same thing for sale in a gun magazine several weeks ago. To catch your cleaning solvent. They even had a web site to order the things. Said the ATF approved the use for cleaning, etc. I went the tax stamp route.

    H110 for supersonic and AA1680 for subsonic. I shoot mostly subsonic out of a 10.5" SBR and supersonic out of a 16" barrel.

    I also run a Noveske 10.5 with a Tbac can. I use 10.8 to 11.2 of 1680 with the Sierra 220 Matchking. I will post my data for the 168 tonight when I can check my notes.

    300 blk 16.5" 1:8 rock best bullet for hunting?

    Accurate 1680 is what I use for subsonic loads in the blackout. I shoot Sierra 220 and 240 grain. I use H110 for supersonic loads. I like the barnes 110 black tip, the Sierra 110 HP, and the Nosler 125 BT. I have shot 130, 150, 165, 200, 210. You can find loading info in the Sierra book...

    Resizing down to the belt on WM cases

    I have used their collet die with great success on both 375 H&H and 416 Rem Mag. Had to wait about 8 months, they were back ordered at the time. A good purchase with the price of brass these days!

    Lets assume H4350 is not an option......

    4831sc worked for me. I could never get H4350 to shoot in my 260.

    Powder degradation and limited ammo lifespan

    I have been using pull down 7.62 x 51 FN berden primed brass for years. I load great shooting hunting ammo for my AR10. It's throw away brass. Cost me pennies per round, made in the early 70's. Thats over 40 years old. Never had a bad primer. Also great for plinking. Came in sealed battle...

    Dillon users: Which dies do you use?

    I load on a 550 and a 650 and do not own a set of Dillon dies. I use RCBS, Redding, Lee, Forster, and lately think the Hornady quality is the best for the money.

    options to Varget

    I have Varget in my stash but my go to powder for 308 is IMR4064. I use this in 2 bolt guns and 2 gas guns. Also use for a friends 308 bolt I load for. We basically only hunt, but can usually keep 5 shots in about 1/2" at 100 yards with all the above rifles. I have found lots of powders that...

    45 ACP Powder Choice

    I use Win 231, 5.5 under a 230 FMJ or HP. Also really like VV N320, this really burns clean, but hard to find and expensive. I have used VV N310 under a 200 wad cutter, have also used WST. Usually run the N320, 4.8 under a 200 grain wad cutter with a reduced (lb) spring.

    Loading .260 Rem on a Dillon 550, can I use the .308 powder die and shellplate?

    The shell plate will work for: 243, 22-250, 260, 7mm-08, 308, and 30-06, 270, etc. I don't have my paperwork with me. The brass buttons also work. You don't need as many shell plates as Dillon says. Powder funnels are a different matter.

    Suppressors TBAC 30P-1 quality test by Short Action Customs.

    I just had my local gun smith thread my GAP AR10 upper for my Thunder Beast can. He made the same comments. He sells cans and said the quality was very good. Better than some others and we will not get into names. He was going to look into stocking a few TB in the future.
