    Chrono numbers in semi-auto vs bolt?

    Question for those that have way more experience in this than me, but we know that in a semi-auto of similar barrel length that you won't get as high of velocity #'s with the same ammo as in a bolt gun. However do you also expect to see significantly more spread and standard deviation? So...

    Chrono expectations in a semi vs bolt gun?

    Question for the guys that have way more experience than I do in this. I know of course that raw velocity #'s will be lower in a semi-auto of similar barrel length with the same ammo compared to a bolt gun cause of course you are losing some pressure to cycle the action. However, do you...

    How you know your ammo had a rough shipping life

    Got these the other day in a shipment of a couple cases order. Hornady 140gr 6.5 ELD that a site had on sale for $30 a box delivered. One of the cases was fine, so I doubt it happened in transit to me, and they were still in the larger factory packing so the store probably didn't even know...

    AI comp triggers?

    How are guys liking the AI comp triggers these days? Is this what is coming in the AT-XC now? I ask because there's some old threads on them, and when they first came out seemed everyone loved them (like so many new shiny things), but it seemed like a couple years later in threads on them...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Good hardside handgun case that can hold larger handguns with optics?

    Been looking for a good hardside handgun case for awhile, that will hold 3-4 handguns plus mags, that's not silly expensive. I'm sure I could have something custom made for a pelican etc. The problem they all seem to have that I've run across is none of them are tall enough to hold a full...

    Favorite stupid gun product!

    Maybe this should be in the pit, but I thought it would be fun to amass all the stupid gun products we see, or maybe learn that they are not so stupid and they really have a use case. My first submission I noticed this morning on Midway USA, a tactical drop leg 10/22 mag holder!

    Scar 20s shooting technique?

    For those shooting the Scar 20s have you found a technique that works well that you don't mind sharing? I've found myself way more inconsistent with the 20s compared to even my large frame AR's. It's seems to be extremely sensitive to user input. Typically shooting it with a rear bag and...

    People ask me why I don't like Sig.......

    I should just make a handout of this. :) This is why I don't like Sig.....among tons of other things there are so many lemons in their barrel lotteries. Let's start with my Gen 2 MPX 16" with a red dot. These are typical groups 6-8" out of it at 50yds, 115gr, 147gr, match ammo etc. doesn't...

    Devcon Plastic Steel 10110 changed recently?

    Anyone notice a difference in recent batches of Devcon Plastic steel 10110? I had not used it in 3-4 years, and ordered some for a recent bedding job and was surprised it seemed different than what I remember in the past. Normally I use the stuff in the syringe, but picked up the 1oz tubes...

    Does stock torsional stiffness matter?

    So I was curious on people's thoughts about stock torsional stiffness and accuracy/repeatability? For example, say you have your rifle on a bipod, and you exert a lateral or rotational force against the stock (say pushing against the cheek piece) if the forearm/stock deflects is that bad, or...

    Lighter Rem 700 stock options (chassis like)

    I'm looking to upgrade my stock on an older Rem 700 LTR, I'd like to stay with something that's not super heavy, or expensive as I have plenty of those options already. I definitely want to stay under 4lbs and just overall not have a super bulky stock with an adjustable cheek rest. I actually...

    Trigger Overtravel......good or bad?

    It seems like most folks hate overtravel and go out of their way to adjust it out when we hear folks talk about triggers on forums etc. Now in action handgun or other sports where max speed is essential in a semi-auto I get that, less trigger travel after the sear breaks and faster reset =...

    You have to love Beretta/Sako customer service.......or lack of

    So I've been having issues with my s20 in 300 win mag for awhile feeding. What happens is the follower gets stuck in the rear so the back of the case does not rise up and the bolt does not pick up a round. It was previously sent to Beretta for other issues and I asked them to address the...

    Beretta using loopholes to import guns to Russia.....

    Looks like Beretta and it's owned subsidiaries have been importing weapons into Russia for some time now against sanctions through various loopholes. If accurate, seems pretty damning for Beretta, it would be one thing if they were coming in on the black market, but it sounds like Beretta is...

    Razor Gen 2 vs XTR III in 3-18?

    For those that have had a chance to compare them, now that these are basically the same price, which way would you go and why? Clearly the XTR III is the new kid on the block, and the Razor G2 has been around awhile. XTR III is certainly much lighter.
