    6.5 Creedmoor Blown Primer.... Stiller Action, Factory ammo.

    As an update to this.... I've shot about another 150 rounds of this lot of ammo with no other major issues. I can't see I've been thrilled with the short-range accuracy (100-200 yds), but I'm hoping that will improve with barrel break-in. Hornady was good about getting back to me, but I...

    6.5 Creedmoor Blown Primer.... Stiller Action, Factory ammo.

    Thanks for all the opinions guys. I appreciate it. I wasn't clear in my original post, but the round from this "hot" shot fired as expected. POI was approximately correct (hard to determine at such a short range). Some of the other brass from that box show a little cratering, but it's not...

    6.5 Creedmoor Blown Primer.... Stiller Action, Factory ammo.

    I finally got a chance to get out my new build today - a 6.5 Creedmoor build based on a new Stiller SPECTRE action. It has a Brux 24" barrel and is mounted in an AICS. The only ammo I'm using right now is Hornaday 140gr A-Max factory ammo. In the first 20 rounds, I got a blown primer. Just...

    AICS Hand stop Picatinny Rail

    Bringing back an old post. I'm surprised to see people moving the sling mounts to the bottom. When I shoot sling-assisted, I currently use the stock clip-in sling mounts. Although I've never tried it, it seems to me that if I used a sling mount on the bottom, it would put a torque on the...

    Removing NV block on AICS

    If you plan on mounting the bipod to a bottom rail under the AICS, why not just remove the front spigot? Anything I'm missing. I would think it would be a net weight loss on the rifle.

    Anyone know where to find an airsoft AICS these days?

    Bottom Picatinny Rail for AICS

    I had my gun next to an Annie last night, and confirmed that they two slots are definitely different, as B&T mentions on their website. But I'll bet a little light filing would make it work just fine if you wanted to install this kit on one of the traditional narrower rails. I'm considering...

    Talk to me about 6.5 Creedmoor in a GAP-10

    Why do the gas guns tend to prefer the lighter bullets?

    Old vs new aics 1.5 skins

    Glad I found this old thread. This is the first thing I had heard about old vs. new versions. I have an old style chassis that I'm building a rifle around, using a Stiller SPECTRE action. Since it is an old style chassis, it has the metal slot for the bolt handle in the chassis, not the...

    New US Army Camouflage Selection Leaked

    4) Who is going to manufacture it? 5) What congressman's district is it going to be manufactured in? 6) What can we get him to vote for in exchange for sending that business to his congressional district, despite the fact that it's far over-budget and makes no sense? 7) How does it affect...

    KAC Bullet Flight

    Mouse- Thanks for that information. That's exactly what I was looking for. As for cant, I'm referring to competitions and drills where you need to shoot through a 30*, 45*, or 90* port. For instance, shooting in urban prone. I'm not talking about trying to correct for a 2* cant - because...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Tactical handgun

    Huh? What are you basing this on? I'm a Sig guy, and have nearly zero malfunctions in any of them. Combined round count in my Sigs is well over 15,000 - we're not talking about Safe Queens here. P229s, P226s, X5s, and Bruce Gray custom Sigs have all been marvelous guns for me. That said...

    KAC Bullet Flight

    Thanks Mouse. What kind of capabilities do they offer over Bullet Flight? I don't mind the extra set-up, but I'd like to find one application, and use it consistently rather than going back and forth between apps. It probably goes without saying that I'd LIKE to be able to use zero cant angle...

    KAC Bullet Flight

    I've only used Strelok and Bulletflight, and while I recognize there could be improvements, they've both been pretty decent for what I've needed to do. What are the advantages of Shooter? Is "AE" that you're referring to the "Ballistics: Advanced Edition"? Do either of these compensate for...

    Best AR grip for precision shooting?

    I'm about to start modifying mine. I plan to remove the large palmswell on the right side, blend the tang to that of the rifle (I have no idea why they are so poorly matched), and then texture or stipple it...
