    New AB phone app on the way?

    It’s working correctly on my other phone but didn’t import any of my previous profiles. It recognises me as a registered user but there is nothing there. That’s not a huge deal if I have to go back and recreate my profiles, I only had 15 or so.

    New AB phone app on the way?

    Another example, only need to come up .18 at 800 from a 100 yard zero. I’m going to try and deleting the app and reinstalling it again. I’m also going to try it on my work phone to see if I can get it to cooperate.

    New AB phone app on the way?

    The first pic shows the solution it gives and the second is the inputs. It’s telling I need to come down from a 50 yard zero. I mean it should be nearly zero at 220. All of my profiles are like this. They were all brought over when I updated and I’ve gone through and checked everything.

    New AB phone app on the way?

    What am I doing wrong with this? The drops are all over the place and in no way correct. I’ve gone back through and checked everything that was transferred over and it won’t give me a correct or even consistent solutions.

    KAK products

    I bought an upper from them recently, it was their rifle length gas 16”. Can’t say I was overly impressed with the handguard. Not that it felt flimsy, but the finish looked like it was powder coated. It also didn’t index correctly with the upper. The only way to fix that would be to remove...

    Criterion barrels - Accuracy

    If you truly believe it is the barrel, contact Criterion. Their warranty/customer service is exceptional in my experience.

    .308 Federal GMM 168 grain Load

    Tac is a good powder. The only thing I dislike about it is you have to be right at the top end to get good results. I’ve had it shoot well at lower charge weights but es/sd were terrible. I’ve given up on AR Comp. With Alliants price gouging they can keep it. I started using Staball Match and...

    .308 Federal GMM 168 grain Load

    Last federal gmm 175 I pulled apart had 39.7 gr of what looked like AR-Comp. This was within the last year, with ammo that was produced fairly recently say within the last 2 years. Same charge of AR-Comp in Lapua brass gave me the same speed with a tighter es/sd. 2540 fps in several 20 inch bolt...

    Old Powder Warning

    This was a known issue with vv 100 series powders. To my knowledge they have corrected it.

    2000 MR alternative

    CFE 223 works well in .308 with 175’s. Getting around 2550 fps in 16 inch semi-autos. 2630 fps in 20 inch bolt guns. That’s with 45 grains in LC brass. Could probably go a bit higher but it shoots well as is. I think hodgdons data tops out at around 47 grains in Winchester brass.

    An is this powder bad thread.........

    If it smells of ether it’s likely still good. If it’s in the plastic not metal container I would have a hard time believing it had gone bad unless it was stored in an improper way. Did you have some leftover lube in the necks? That’s the only time I’ve seen extruded powder stick to a case neck.

    TAC powder in 7mm-08

    Not sure how full your cases will be but TAC in my experience likes to be above 80-85% fill. Even in .308 I got huge es/sd numbers running 40.5 grains behind a 175 smk. Bumped it up to 42.5 and everything calmed down.

    Sierra .308 175 GR. HPBT Gameking Performance

    Nothing to do with length on these. When the smk yaws in the target it is because the nose becomes deformed in a not uniform way i.e. it bends at the point where there is no lead causing it to tumble or veer off course. I have seen them cause incredible damage on deer and pronghorn and I have...

    Sierra .308 175 GR. HPBT Gameking Performance

    New game king on the left, regular SMK on the right. Externally the only difference I could spot is the hp on the new game king is more uniform and slightly larger diameter. People have been taking small diameter drills to the smk for years, looks similar to that. I only shot them on paper at...

    Help, my 5.56 reloads suck

    25.5 grains of H335 is the go to for 55 grain 556 ammo. Always had good luck with Tac and 77 smk’s

    ES inverse of accuracy

    The CCI 200 primers probably aren’t doing you any favours. They are a fairly mild large rifle primer.
