    Audio linkage to StrelokPro

    This is just a fantasy probably but has anybody figured out how to link audio to a ballistic program like StrelokPro to give holds? Example - Assuming you had set the rifle and cartridge in your application manually and entered the usual weather data (less wind) manually or with Bluetooth, you...

    Suppressors Omega at high altitude

    So was at 11,100 feet shooting my 300 win mag with the omega attached. It was MUCH louder than at my home elevation of 975 feet. Almost didn’t sound suppressed. I was shooting in a canyon about 1 mile across so that be part of it but suspect it may the significant decrease in air pressure. Any...

    Optics Planet and ITAR

    I ordered a timney Calvin elite two stage trigger for a Remington 700 to be shipped to Oklahoma and they delayed it and wanted an ITAR compliance form. I’m like WTF, this isn’t a set of high dollar night vision goggles? I did fill one out last year for a high end German scope, but a trigger...

    Meopta warranty kudos

    Had a pair of 10x42 meopro HD binos that were 1.5 years old. The ocular lense adjustment was not center zeroed. Probably got out of whack riding in my rucksack. Sent back to get an adjustment calibration. They just shipped me a new pair. Was not expecting that at all. Two thumbs up. ?

    Gunsmithing Timney 510 adjustment

    1. If I loosen the trigger tension down too far will the little screw come out or does it have a stop? 2. Everybody says don’t jack with the other two screws. But if drop the trigger weight to 1.5 lbs from 3, will that create a situation where the over travel and /or the sear engagement will be...

    Determining temperature sensitivity of H1000 for Strelok Pro

    So I tested my load at 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Strelok of course wants to know the temp sensitivity factor % for every 15 degree drop. Anybody have a ballpark % factor for H1000 loads?

    Suppressors Purchasing non-nfa with a corp or trust

    So if you go to Walmart and buy a Remington 870 shotgun with your farm corp., will the clerk actually let you put that corporate name down on the 4473? How does that effect the call in to the NICS? Or does the NICS actually require the personal data of the officer buying on behalf of the...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns New glock threaded barrel in gen 2 glock 21

    So I have my trusty G21 from 1992. Bought a new factory threaded barrel the other day. I see that the barrel locks up nicely but I do see a very slight difference in that there is a slughtly curved up area on the bottom of the rails at the very end by the chamber verses a flat run out in the...

    Double taps with my LMT

    I keep getting double taps with my LMT MWS. It's a stock trigger and the FCG is fine. It's got something to do with the way I'm controlling the weapon on the bench and the trigger pull. I'm really trying to absolutely squeeze the trigger and let it break clean. Thoughts? Never happens on my ar15.

    50bmg primerpocket loading question

    So I used a swage on my LC brass, then I used a Sinclair primer pocket uniformer attached to my drill bit. The uniformer went right in and I gave a full 2 second blast till the collar bottomed out. Loaded 5 primers into shells. Went right in without crushing but could feel reasonable resistance...

    LMT MWS and screw-on can

    Howdy: What's the poop on screw on cans with OEM threads on the MWS. What can are you using? Are you just using a thread protector when the can is off? Did you have the threads adjusted to index the can, or did you just slap the can on and go with it as is, or use crush washers to help...

    speaking of paint - need advice on scratch touchup

    I scratched a wee bit of finish off the outside of the mag well. All my fault. It's just down to the bare metal and about 1/4 of an inch long by pencil lead thin. What's the best bet (paint or otherwise) for covering the metal to prevent rust and covering it up in general? I'm almost tempted...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns CCW Imprinting - no big deal?

    So after I got my CCL, I used to get real nervous carrying my pistol if the buldge was obvious so I had a small Walther that really was concealed. Then I got to thinking that I really just prefer my Glock 36 with black talons b/c its a 45 ACP. In Oklahoma, I wear t shirts or short sleeve...

    Rifle Scopes Any thoughts on the LaRue 50 BMG mount vs Smith 50

    Anybody tried the LaRue 50BMG QR mount? I have the Smith Enterprises 50 rings on my BMG and they are the cats azz but HEAVY, and obviously not very mobile in terms of using your scope on multiple platforms. Thanks, Conrad
