    Sidearms & Scatterguns Beretta 1301 Comp Pro...looking for feedback

    Could your problem with slugs be that you are shooting the wrong type? Rifled barrels will shoot sabot slugs fine while a smooth bore will key hole them in the target. Regular slug will fly straight in smooth bore guns.

    New AB phone app on the way?

    So I have a Kestrel 5700 that I upgraded to AB Elite status. I noticed in the device option that Quantum will not recognize the 5700 until January. Does that mean that I will have access to Elite features, instead of just lite, in January when the 5700 is recognized?

    Looking at Tripod Heads

    So I cleaned off the ball and the nylon or delrin contact rings that act as clamping surfaces for the ball and got some better results. Rifle weighted approximately 16.5 lbs without the suppressor. As seen above, with the suppressor I can lock it angled up or down with no difference...

    Looking at Tripod Heads

    To late as I've already got it. Haven't shot off it yet, just messed around mounting various spotting scopes and guns. Picked up a clamp with arca attachment for guns without arca or picatinny rails. When I clamped my KM OPS 51 is when I learned I needed to tighten up the ball clamp.

    Looking at Tripod Heads

    I know it is not RRS, Two Vets, or other shooting specialty gear manufacture but have you looked at the Sunwayfoto IB-65? So far the only thing I've noticed is that the rifle needs to be fairly balanced or it will go muzzle up or buttstock up on its own. I plan on taking it apart and...

    I'd contact Springfield Armory and find out if the stock has aluminum bar or if solid or hollow stock first.

    Looking to purchase my first and last suppressor

    Check out PTP Tactical. I ended up with 3 of their cans; rifle, pistol and rimfire. They offer brakes or flash hiders, 5/8-24 and 1/2-28, if you don't want the blowback of a brake. I also like the feature of always ending in the same position when mounted and will lock in place with levers so...

    Torque question

    When you went to break the screws loose, did you crack them all loose before removing or simply remove one and then reinstall or try and remove each one individually? If you did the last you do realize that if the base didn't fit the receiver perfectly, the tension against the problem screw...

    You might want to read a little more about ATF as there are no "abrasives" in their formulation. They do have detergents but nothing abrasive.

    Does "Over-Annealing" Impact Shot Dynamics?

    Looking at your pictures it looks like the case mouth was smashed against something and the shoulder was deformed in the process. How is this the cause of the annealer? Maybe some more information about cartridge used, dies, bullets, and anything else that might lead to determining the cause...
