    Got my Ballistic Edge annealer today

    Brown Santa paid me a visit today. Haven't had a chance to use it yet, but all I can say is this is one helluva piece of machinery. Heavy duty aluminum all the way around, adjustable feet, heavy duty hardware. I ordered it a little over a week ago and they said they would have to build one...

    Compensating brass volume with more/less powder.

    I was curious if it was wise to try to compensate larger brass volume with more powder to get a more consistent velocity spread? If so is there a formula for figuring it out? I have some Hornady brass that is varying over 5 grains weight difference. I know the weight of the brass is not...

    WTF with my DPMS LR-6.5

    I'm almost at my wits end with this rifle. Of course I can never leave anything alone, and like an idiot, I damaged the gas block while putting on a new fore end. So I ordered a JP adjustable block, but the rifle is still not feeding. It will feed maybe 1 in 10 rounds. The adjustment is all...

    6.5 Creedmoor

    I know there's already a thread open for this cartridge, but its mostly .260, and seeing as how popular 6.5CM is getting, coupled with the lack of info in load manuals, I think it should have its own thread. I just got my new set of dies in, so I'll be posting up some info in the days to come.

    Magpul PRS: AR15 vs AR10

    After having cycling issues with my DPMS LR-6.5, A fellow shooter at the range asked me if I had installed the AR-10 version of the Magpul PRS. I honestly had no idea there was a difference, but he said if you look at them side by side, I would see the difference in the length of the cheek...

    Fultorn Armory Side Cocker

    No it aint a porno thread.. I was curious if anyone had experience with this upper. I was thinking of swapping my DPMS upper receiver and bolt carrier with the FAR Titan one. I have seen a few AR- style rifles with the charging handle on the left, but never on the right. How well does this...

    Suppressors Best handgun for a corrosive enviornment?

    My father was asking me what handgun would be best for protection on his boat. The boat lives in the Pacific coast, so salt water will be a problem. I figured a Glock would be best due to high use of polymer and ease of replacement parts.

    Gunsmithing Any how to's for polishing feed ramps?

    I've been having some feeding problems with my LR-6.5 and noticed the feed ramp had some pretty heavy machining marks on them. I was thinking a polish might help, however I was curious if there is a certain technique or special tool to use.

    PRS stock on an AR-30

    Thanks to APA, there's finally an option for buttstock replacements for the AR-30. Unfortunately, my hopes of putting a PRS stock on my rifle came at a cost. First off, the holes in the adapter were drilled in the incorrect spot, so I had to ream the holes forward about 1/8" for it to fit the...

    Should I go .338LM?

    I got a quote from Armalite to rechamber and rebarrel my AR30 from a .308 to a .338LM. They quoted me a little over $550 for all parts and labor for the swap. We now have a local 1000 yard range, which the .308 works nicely for, but competition-wise, the wind at times can be overbearing, which...

    Rifle Scopes NF NXS Ranging Power?

    Sorry if this has been asked, but the advanced search is down. I may be stating the obvious here, but is the little dot at about 11x magnification power on a NXS 5.5-22 scope the optimal setting for ranging with the NP-R2 reticle?
