I have this post split into a few parts. 1: Equipment, 2: Process, 3: Bullet-specific loading questions. I’ve done a lot of research online, but have never reloaded before. Part 1: Equipment I am considering going this route for reloading. What do I have on this list I should take...
Getting into reloading and putting together my list. So far, I’ve learned everything is a rabbit hole - including cleaning brass! Dry Tumbling - This is the route I was planning on going, but am concerned about the amount of lead exposure. I have a 1yr old son, so I am very cautious of lead...
What is the ideal barrel length and twist rate for a 22 barrel? I’ve heard 18”-20”, but not is sounds like some people are running 25” barrels? Also, I’ve heard for fast twist rates such as 1:13 as opposed to 1:16. Vid about a 25” 13 twist barrel Vid about an argument for longer barrel length...
Curtis: Haven’t heard much of anything about it in the wild. Overall consensus of Curtis actions seems mixed at best, including their CS. However, their rimfire conversion seems incredible. I love the idea that I’d be able to shoot rimfire and centerfire out of the same rig. Would mostly choose...
Priorities are: 1: Hunting 2: Bug Out - Self/Home Defense 3: 3 Gun (I’m not a gamer - more for fun/training as opposed to being actually competitive) 4: Clays (more for fun/training as opposed to being actually competitive) The biggest factors for me are quality, reliability, simplicity, and...
I am trying to limit myself. I think 9mm, 5.56, 308, 6.5CM, and 300NM cover all my bases. Any argument to be made for picking up a rifle in 7.62x39? I’ve been tempted to get rifle chambered in 7.62x39 (AK - either WASR10 or ZPAP M70, Bren 2, or Galil Ace) , but every time I get close to pulling...
Initially, I was looking at getting a TBAC 338 Ultra (maybe SR) as I mostly shoot my bolt gun. However, I thought it might be nice to get one suppressor I can use for 3 platforms. The AR15 will be an LMT, AR10 will likely be an LMT, and the bolt will likely be an MRAD, AXMC, or AXSR. I am a...
Short Story: (1) Which rifle? MRAD vs. AXMC vs. AXSR. Is there a downside to large firing pins, especially for the larger cartridges? I want to avoid pierced primers. (2) Which Cartridge for out to 2000yds using only factory ammo? 300NM vs. 300PRC vs. any other? What twist rate? What factory...
I was surprised to see a 3,000fps limit at Triple C‘s website (https://www.triplecrange.com/range-rules). That eliminates a lot of cartridges from shooting. Even 5.56. Seems crazy to me, am I missing something? I was looking at getting into ELR and trying to decide on a cartridge choice, but...
Would it be better to run (1) Completely blacked out (Ameriglo Suppressor Height GL-506) (2) Blacked out with nights sights (Trijicon Bright and Tough Suppressor Height Sights) (3) White 3 dot with night sights (Trijicon Bright and Tough Supressor Height Sights with white dots and night...
* What is the platform for the scope? AXSA (will eventually trade for AXMC) * What cartridges will you be shooting? 308 Win, 6.5 CM (will eventually be shooting 300NM) * What is your intended use for the scope? PRS, ELR, Hunting, Steel * What type of conditions will you typically shoot in...
Can you guys tell me your step-by-step guide for using the Kestrel? I would also really like any info you have found from reliable sources (Kestrel/AB videos, Everyday Sniper podcasts I should listen to (including episode #), etc.). Maybe it would look something like this? Setting it up...
Right now, the products I’m using are as follows: Cleaning Rod: Dewey Guide: Tipton Universal Bore Guide (soon to be AI bore guide) Solvent Ballistol (I currently don’t use any copper solvent) Jag, Patches, and Brush Generic Poke-style jag, Generic Patches, Generic Brush I use the cleaning...
I shoot factory Hornady 108gr ELDM 6mm creedmoor. Is the velocity, etc., going to be changing much throughout the life of the barrel where I need to change my dope? Do I need to find a new MV (or something?) every “X” number of rounds? I am getting into PRS club matches and I don’t want to be...
I tried this post in the Bear Pit first but didn’t get any serious responses so I thought I’d try it again. What are the most reliable, trust-with-your-life firearms out there? From what I’ve read it sounds like these would be some of the top contenders: Handgun: Glock 19 AR-15: Lewis Machine...
What are the most reliable, trust-with-your-life firearms out there? From what I’ve read it sounds like these would be some of the top contenders: Handgun: Glock 19 AR-15: Lewis Machine and Tool CQB, Knights Armament Company SR-15 Mod 3 AK-47: WASR-10, Arsenal SAM7 Shotgun: Benelli M2...
Recently purchased my first AR-15. With you guys’ advice I finally bit the bullet and got an LMT-CQB. If I buy another barrel for it is it best to get a bolt to go with the barrel? I heard with an AR-15 the barrel and bolt mate together?
Most of mine are probably pipe dreams, but here’s my wish list: 1. Vortex releases a 1-8 LPVO to compete with the ATACR 1-8. 2. Vortex releases a Razor Gen III line that has an optional built-in HUD like the REVIC scopes and links to Kestrel/AB. 3. Accuracy International releases .223...
Trying to decide if I should invest in a Gen II Razor. If there’s a pretty strong chance of a Gen III coming out next year I’ll keep my Burris XTR II a bit longer and wait for that.
I have an astigmatism. I’m trying to decide if it’s worth getting an RDS to put on my Glock 19 Gen 5 MOS. Looking at getting either an RMR Type 2 Adjustable or a Holosun 507c. I’ve been able to look at them both and the 507c seemed to bother me less. If you have an astigmatism with a red dot how...
