I replaced the extractor on my stainless Commander and the FP stop plate was so tight that it would not slide in. With the factory extractor the stop would slide in and out with finger pressure. The slot on the new Wilson Bulletproof extractor was such a tight fit the FP stop would not go back...

I have been reloading for over 40 years and just recently discovered an issue with undersized Sierra 185 gr. JHP bullets. I had loaded 500 or so on my Dillon 550b a couple of years back and just had not had the time to shoot them due to other endeavors. I burned thru about 50 the other day using...

Quick question for you guys. Can I run stainless media in my Dillon vibratory cleaner or do I need a tumbler ? Don't know if the stainless media would be too heavy for the Dillon or not.

Don't know if this has been posted before as I had not seen it. Rather intense chase and shootout after a Colorado parolee shoots a Texas deputy. TouchVision

Anyone here know if the Leupold Custom Shop can convert M1 MOA turrets to Mil based M5 turrets ? The scopes that I have are Vari-x III 6.5x20 and 4.5 x14 with 30 mm tubes and M1 turrets. I do not see any reference to them doing this conversion on their web page.

I have a lower that was purchased used and it has an aftermarket trigger in it that I cannot identify. I have Jards and JPs in other rifles and it is not one of them. There are 4 allen adjustments on it as noted by the arrows in the crappy pic. I believe that it is a single stage but is out of...

Just wanted to share some info regarding adding an adjustable gas block to the LMT MWS. I just got off the phone with one of the LMT techs regarding putting an adjustable gas block on my MWS. I have two barrels, a 16" CL and an 18" SS. The 16" is a mid length gas system and the 18" and 20" are...

At what point do you guys discard your brass for loose primer pockets ? I have a bunch of Fed. .308 brass that I have been loading. Some of them that have been reloaded 4 times have loosend up a bit. I hand prime everything and on the looser ones the primers slip in with very little effort...

I currently own 4 suppressors all purchased with a LE signoff on a Form 4. Recently my son formed a firearms trust to purchase his suppressors. My question is since he lives in another state (SC) and I live in Va., if I purchase another class 3 item can I do it thru his trust if I am on it even...

Anyone know if Geissle SSA-E can be found any cheaper than $210 ? I have located a source for that shipped but have seen none for less money....thanks

Good report on effects of steel cased / bi-metal projectiles on your barrel and rifle. http://www.luckygunner.com/labs/brass-vs-steel-cased-ammo/#reliable

I run my LMT MWS suppressed most of the time. It functions great but I worry about about excessive wear since I know it is over gassed. Does anyone have any experience using one of Slash's extra heavy buffers with an LMT MWS to slow the action down a bit ? If so, does it run with no issues when...

Anyone here have a handload that they have worked up that shoots well in a LMT MWS .308 with the 16" CL barrel ? I just picked one up and ran a existing load thru it that my GAP .308 loves. That being 43.4 gr. of RL-15 behind a 175 SMK. The LMT shot it around 1 MOA. I didn't have any 168s loaded...

I have been looking for a 7.62 gas gun for a while and ran across this one locally. I have not heard a lot regarding them as far as accuracy and function are concerned. This one was built by the owner after purchasing the upper and lower receivers from Mega using the below listed components. He...

Just starting to work up a load for my 6.8 SPC spec II on the AR platform using the new Hornady 120 gr. SST. Have any of you guys had any experience with the bullet ? The hot powder right now is supposed to be A2200 but I can't locate any local and don't want to pay hazmat just for a pound. I am...

A question for those who know. I recently purchased a factory laminted Rem. 700 BDL stock to "pretty up" an older Rem 700 Varmint .22-250 that I had in a PSS stock. I noticed that when setting the receiver into the laminated stock that it is free floated except at the last inch on the muzzle...

Several years ago I purchased a 1/2x28 to 5/8x24 thread adapter to use my .308 can on a .223 rifle. I purchased this from a member here that manufactured them. I recently lost it during a move and want to get another but I cannot remember the members name. Can any point me in the right...

Has anyone tried this new technology chronograph ? It uses a magnetic field sensor instead of photo sensors. I have been reading good reviews on it. Terry Cross of KMW is also reviewing it. The only issue that I see is that I could not use my suppressor with the current way that it mounts...

Looking for some ideas here. I put together a 6.8 SPC AR to use for deer and coyote here in Va. This rifle has an non-railed aluminum tube forend on it. The problem is in the 20-30 deg. temps in the winter the tube gets colder than a well diggers ass. I wrapped it in 550 cord but I am looking...

Question for you guys. I have a post '64 Win. Model 70 heavy barrel in .243, ser. # G985,XXX that appears to be manufactured in 1970 according to i-net searches. My question is whether it is a long action or short action. Measuring from the bolt face (with bolt back) to the chamber edge of the...
