    Twist Rate and Max Bullet Weight: Impact Accuracy?

    175's will run fine out of a factory 1:12, so out of a 1:11 it won't be a problem. Unless you're planning on going with a 200gr or heavier bullet, 1:11 will work. The twist rate is not the most important factor when it comes to accuracy. A good quality barrel will give you good accuracy when...

    AR-15 Experts: Where to buy accurate 16-18" barrel, WOA?

    Gunsmithing About to Alumahyde my Upper

    You'll be fine. Get some non chlorinated brake cleaner, and spray the everliving hell out of it. If you're wife isn't home, you can also put it in the oven at a low temperature to pull some of the oils out. That is of course, provided you have removed all the plastic bits.

    Suppressors Any AAC-SDN-6 quality issues you guys experienced?

    You're hanging a weight off the front of a barrel. Of course you're gonna get a POI shift. It's typical and happens with every can I own. Sometimes more, sometimes less depending on the barrel profile and can weight. It's not bullshit, it's physics. What's important is that the POI shift is...

    Parents - don't let your kids play war!

    Re: Parents - don't let your kids play war! Whoa, let's stop that talk right here and now. We can't have talk of parenting, and responsibility. It's a well known fact that a television/computer is a perfect substitute for parental responsibility.

    Looking to move to NC, RTP area

    Re: Looking to move to NC, RTP area There are plenty of places to shoot. Off the top of my head, there's the Wake County range (indoor 1 to 100 meter), Personal Defense and Handgun (indoor pistol), Eagle One (indoor pistol), Camp Butner (outdoor 1000 for competitions only), and Range 37...

    New to Centerfire Bolt Guns: Barrel Break In?

    Re: New to Centerfire Bolt Guns: Barrel Break In? No need to break it in. Aside from burn up some barrel life and waste time, it doesn't do anything for your rig. Just shoot it and enjoy.

    Suppressors Question for newb on NFA choice(s)

    Re: Question for newb on NFA choice(s) Like you said, the decision is very subjective, but I will pass along some of my personal experience. Buying a can is like voluntarily becoming addicted to crack. I bought one thinking it would be enough, that didn't work. The downside is that every...

    Re: Coastal Suppressors Unless "hell of a deal" is free, walk away. My first can was a Coastal LRT. I quickly learned that it's better to spend a few hundred more and get a quality piece by a reputable company. It's long, it weights a ton, and the baffle design is antiquated to say the...

    Questions for people with ~18 inch 308s

    Re: Questions for people with ~18 inch 308s Can't speak for 18" barrels, but I am currently running a 16" 308. The recoil isn't any more harsh than my 20" 308, but it is louder, much louder. It also pukes out a fireball like you wouldn't believe. You said that velocities and range wasn't a...
