rear bag .. buyers guide/rear bags 101??
I'm not a fan of hard rear bags at all. I want the fill to be loose so I can fine tune my aim just by squeezing the bag. If there's too much fill, like I find with most mass produced bags, I have to squeeze much harder than I want and/or am forced to shift the entire bag around too much. I've...- TWANGnBANG

Suppressors Thunderbeast brake attach suppressor ever get stuck
Sometimes I think it's worth sending it in for something like a truly stuck can so we don't have to witness what is done to get it off. :)- TWANGnBANG

Sidearms & Scatterguns Ruger single actions Bisley vs. Vaquero vs. Blackhawk
I love my Vaquero Convertible that I picked up. It comes with two matching cylinders- one in 45 Colt and one in 45 ACP. It makes practicing with factory ammo cheaper and easier. The convertibles are only done in limited runs and can be hard to find. However, it's a great option if you can...- TWANGnBANG

Suppressors For those who are unfamiliar with the joys of a .22 bolt gun and a can...
I love shooting my FVSR suppressed so much that my very first video I ever made specifically for my channel was about how a rimfire can is a gateway drug to a silencer addiction. I compared the sound of my FVSR shooting CCI SV through an AAC Pilot to the sound of a lot of other quiet weapons...- TWANGnBANG

Thanks for starting this thread. I haven't taken any of my AAC brakes off yet, but now I know what to do if I have the same problem.- TWANGnBANG

Rifle Scopes What is everyone's preference on reticles?
My long range instructor is a big fan of the Horus reticles and is who introduced me to them in the first place. He recommended the Bushnell HDMR. It was priced right, and the H59 is the version that is available for it. I've been using the HDMR with the H59 for about a year now, and I am...- TWANGnBANG

Suppressors Huge Shift in Zero with SpecWar
I disagree. A POI shift that great is indicative that something isn't right, especially on something as stiff as an 18" heavy barrel. A good can should not affect bullet flight that much if properly aligned. OP should contact SilencerCo if he does not trust his gunsmith to diagnose and/or...- TWANGnBANG

Why do I only seem to see bolt rifles at precision shooting matches?
I was going to say that I saw a lot of gas guns at Woody's August DMM match (fantastic match format and support, BTW). A friends who does well there said that for a while, guys running heavily braked 556 AR15s were at the top because they'd make up for precision with volume of fire, and the...- TWANGnBANG

Suppressors Sionics design...?
Wipes are great at reducing the amount of supersonic gas following the bullet through the bore, which is a major source of the limit to dB reduction of today's suppressors. Edit: ATF position on individual replacement of wipes isn't clear to me, but in any case, the legal and/or the...- TWANGnBANG

Rifle Scopes What is everyone's preference on reticles?
I like the H59 for long range "tactical" shooting because you zero, then don't mess with the turrets when shooting at all. It's very fast when transitioning from target to target, and it makes follow-up shots much easier to make if you get good trace or splash. There are other less "busy"...- TWANGnBANG

Suppressors Need a proper precision rifle can...
I've been very happy with my Liberty Victory on my 700 PSS 308. It has only a 0.4 mil POI shift that is 100% repeatable, and it's tightened my groups a bit, as well. I've run several hundred rounds through it, slow fire and rapid fire (by bolt gun standards), and I've never had it come even the...- TWANGnBANG
