+1 for the wraith. I haven’t used the newer one yet though. I’m sure it’s better than the previous. With any digital NV, having a good IR light is a must so make sure he’s factoring that into the budget.

Thanks guys. I'm going to use the 140s

Thanks, I was kind of assuming that was the case. Now... time to try and find more bullets

I have a couple of pounds of RL 26 that I want to use in a load for 6.5 Creedmoor. I have a little over 100 147 gr Eldm and 100, 140 gr Eldm that I've read have good results with RL 26. What benefit if any is there to loading a lighter bullet such as a 130 or 120 gr with RL 26? Is RL too...

I need some help finding a shorter 1-9 twist 10/22 barrel for a build that I want to do. I'm having some trouble finding anywhere that sells them. Do you guys know of a place I can find them? I'm not really stuck on the barrel length. I will be using it with 60sss and also want to see what...

I’m with you there. He’s not super knowledgeable about guns, but he doesn’t have to be either. He knows enough to do his job as a hunter well.

I listen to all of his podcasts. I don’t think he’s a Fudd. They rarely ever talk about guns or gun control for that matter. I do remember him saying some about ar15s that wasn’t super duper positive but if I remember correctly that was in reference to hunting.

Theirs is great! That's why I said YHMs is ONE of the best.

+1 for silencer shop. They do a great job of making the whole process as simple as it can be. Even better is if you have one of their kiosks near you. First things first, find what you want to buy and then figure out what you need to do to buy it. Find an FFL that deals with that stuff...

I really like YHM stuff for the money. Their QD Mount is one of the best. If you’re worried about blowback you can always get an adjustable gas block for around $50. Even then you’re still going to tend to get more stuff blown in your face than normal. Without one you definitely will.

If mirage is a problem for you then yes, it can help. I haven’t had an issue with 22 cans. Especially not on a bolt action. The only time one of my 22 cans gets hot is when it’s getting shot full auto. But then you’re not worried about shooting accurately.

I have a YHM resonator that I use on both my ar and 6.5 creedmoor. The sound difference between it and other 556 is negligible. The only real difference IMHO is the weight and size of the can hanging off of your barrel. In fact, I think 30 cal cans tend to sound nicer on 223 guns compared...

I'm looking to get an optic for the RPR 556. I plan to use it as a training rifle and a way to shoot long range for cheaper. 1,000 yds would be the max with most shots around 600 max. I'd like to stay around $400. I already have an Argos BTR 6-24 on another rifle. I'm not opposed to...

Where are you finding RL 26? I can find H4350 around me and online, but I haven’t been able to find any RL 26.

I’ve probably shot 120 rounds so far through it. All but a handful of them have been suppressed. Could the extra gunk in the barrel from the suppressor cause a carbon ring with so few rounds?

I appreciate your offer. I'm in NE Ohio

Got the OAL gauge in from Milo. With the 147s my oal to the lands is 2.013. My previous oal measured from the tip is 2.855. If I use the comparator to measure the 2.855 from the tip it comes out to 2.166 to the ogive. This means my previous loads were a whole tenth into the lands right...

Update* Took a spent .40 case and measured the shoulder bump with a 1x fired piece of brass. Before resizing it measured 2.3785 with the .40 case After resizing its was at 2.3795 Milo was generous enough to ordered a bumb gauge kit for me. When it gets to me I'll be able to take some better...

I tried to do the same thing shown in that video. Got the ejector out, but couldn’t get the firing pin out. Milo is setting me up with everything I need to find the lands. He’s even giving me some 140s to test out for free. I appreciate all the help from you guys.

I don’t have anything to measure shoulder bump. I thought they were growing a bit much too. When I shoot 223 it doesn’t move that much, but I wasn’t sure if 6.5 grows more like that. I guess the answer is no. Thanks for the idea of using a piece of .40 brass. I should be able to find...
