    Suppressed Arma-Lite 338 Federal Project

    When I joined this forum a few years ago, one of my first inquiries related to suppressing the AR-10. I already had my YHM Phantom 338 suppressor and was aware of the Arma-Lite 338 Fed 22" upper. The pictures today show the result of what eventually was a 4 year project in the making and I have...

    Night Vision Dayscope + NV Questions

    Getting close to pulling the trigger on a clip on (Armasight CO-MR). That said, I have a couple of questions concerning the day scope. 1. does the reticle type matter? For example, I have a Leu 4.5-14x50 w/ ILL Duplex. Does illumination help you see the reticle when using the NV? Same question...

    Magazine ID Question

    I'm looking for a system to identify my AI magazines for my Rem 700 LTR to distinguish between full power loads and my subsonics. My loads look the same externally (just change powder). Curious as to what works for some of you. Colored tape? Any advice is appreciated. THANK YOU- TX COWDOC

    Suppressors 338 Federal Suppressor Set-Up: Help / Input Requested

    Hello- I have an Armalite AR-10 in 338 Fed. 22" Barrel, 1:10" Twist. I also have a YHM 338 Phantom. I realize what I give up by shortening the barrel (velocity, potential gas pressure changes, etc). This will be a dedicated suppressed project. Here's where I need some guidance: 1. Hand-guard-...

    AR-10T Barrel Shortening / Threading

    I'll be cutting down the 22" barrel to legal minimum on an AR10T in 338 Fed so that when my 338 cal can is threaded on the overall length will be managable. This rifle will be a dedicated suppressed weapon. Any concerns other than lost muzzle velocity? Thanks

    AR-10 Magazine COAL

    What is the max cartridge overall length for hand loading the AR-10? I'm assuming that 308 Win and 338 Federal (using the same case) will be the same length? Correcto? Gracias

    Brass Trim / Chamfer Question

    I use an RCBS power trimmer and the trim mate unit to trim my brass. My question is: When chamferring the brass with the Trim Mate, does it matter whether I go inside 1st or outside 1st. How much do I bevel the neck of the brass? I'd have to admit that I'm not consistent with the length of time...

    Stuck One!

    I was loading for my buddy's 300 Win Mag and tinkered with some Trail Boss. Capacity was 20 grains. Per Trail Boss' instructions one could go as low as 70% of capacity. Well, let me tell you that 14 grains isn't enough to push that Barnes TTSX out of his 26" barrel. Talk about an Oh Sh*t moment...

    Black Hills 175 SMK Red Box

    I've been shooting this stuff through my 700 LRT with an Omega 30 can. Shoots like a dream. Since I'm already set to load 308 subsonic, I am curous if anyone knew what would be a comparable powder to try to match this round. Shoots well but would like to laod my own. I'm getting 2520 fps out...
