My thought is purely on consistency. If you run with a team, any team member should be able to grab your mag and go, or pick up your weapon and have familiarity with it. I like the 9mm platform from the perspective of carrying 17-19 rounds in a service weapon/EDC. If I could carry 17-19...

One thing not really touched upon that I have seen in some of the circles and communities I have ties with reduces it down to usability. I have seen typically a Glock or S&W swing, focused around the 9mm. This allows whole departments etc to all run the same magazines with the same rounds and...

A little later than expected, but done right is better than making a date with something that isn't to your standards. I was hoping to get my hands on one of these sooner rather than later, but we don't always get what we want and a little patience goes a very long way. Thanks for all...

You would have to work out the scaling and it all depends if you think in imperial or metric, but going to a 1000cm scales a bit easier for me. Of course all of it is relative to what you are most comfortable with in your experience. Unfortunately for me, since we started a family, the wife...

I always clean bore to muzzle and never reverse direction, and pull through at a constant slow rate. Which is why I have found it confusing.

I've had BH not shoot worth a damn in one rifle and cut a ragged hole with another. It is still 1 moa ammo, but as everyone has said find what your rifle loves and feed it. I've only been back shooting the last 4 years, and I've seen a considerable amount of variance with rifle/ammo...

300 win mag to a lvl4 plate still means you are dead. If it doesn't outright crack the plate, your internals look like an unset jello mold.

So a twist on this, since I actually read manuals, the SSG 3K states to not use bronze brushes to clean the barrel as it could scratch damage the finish. How is brass going to damage chromed steel? I normally use a snake on my rifles for the first 2 passes of my cleaning regiment, guess...

The other solution is if they merely opted to sell selective fire weapons. Maybe they found a warehouse of pre-ban? ;)

Not saying it is really a big deal to clean or not especially if you have a vanadium chrome lined barrel, but I think scraping with a brush and not following up with a patch of some variety is asking for problems. CLP is cheap and so are patches.

I run a Noveske 18" SPR barrel, stainless steel and sub moa to 800m (not pushed beyond yet) I'm running black hills 77gr otm 5.56 (mk262). I've not had any issue with it at all.

I recently picked up an 18" model, and Sig does not ship those with that horrid flash hider. Just got glass on it tonight. Can't wait to get it out to the range.

Very strange on the barrel, mine has a crown, and threads all the way back, I have an AAC 91t break on mine, else I'd take a picture. Personally I am of the opinion to let a gunsmith install a muzzle device, I'm capable and have the tools, but if you have access to a reliable and competent...

Wanted to thank everyone for their responses. Very helpful, more to think about, but good info all around.

Institutional inertia tells me that if I don't "break-in" or properly "season" a barrel I will ruin the barrel and the accuracy of that barrel forever. Having just acquired an SSG 3000, I am curious how much that is really true with modern metalurgy etc. I know it was the case in the...

other than this guy's tendency to confuse accuracy and precision, I found the results interesting. The Truth About Barrel Length, Muzzle Velocity and Accuracy - The Truth About Guns

Hi everyone, I have been referencing information here for quite awhile, and decided I should get off my butt and register. I recently started shooting beyond 600m regularly and am in love with it. There is nothing quite like that dull thunk at 1000m to make your day. I expect I will...
