    Expected Accuracy at 100 Yards?

    I have a Savage MK-II TR and the groups I get are nothing to speak of regardless of what flavor of Ammo I run through it. ( Federal, Wolf, Winchester, Eley, etc ) Rings and Optic are Leu Mk-IV's. Run it with a rear bag and bipod. Yeah, I know. MK-IV on a .22lr ?! I had a spare one in the...

    Suppressors What 22 Pistol cycles best with a can

    Ever have any blowback issues with the Buckmark ? I have one, but no threaded barrel for it. I keep my eye out for the threaded version every chance I get :D Tried an aftermarket barrel but hated it due to the balance issue it caused. The Buckmark has to be the most accurate .22lr...

    Suppressors AAC Cyclone: Observations or Commentary

    The Cyclone is the only rifle caliber suppressor I own ( screw on variety, not QD ) and I cannot be happier with it. Run it on a Savage Model 10 that is already a bit heavy but I like the balance it gives the rifle. Shoots .5 MOA all day long. The only time it is removed from that rifle is...

    Poll: Do you shoot cheap/fmj/surplus .308 ammo???

    Re: Poll: Do you shoot cheap/fmj/surplus .308 ammo??? Cheap ammo only serves to wear out your barrel and won't give you any feedback about your form. You can do everything perfectly with cheap ammo, and still have horrible results downrange. Other than forcing you to clean the rifle, you...

    Suppressors !!! Baffle Strikes !!!!

    Re: !!! Baffle Strikes !!!! Was just going to give a nod to the threading check on the barrel or alignment of the flash suppressor. Mine is a direct thread variety and was just off kilter enough for the round to graze the exit hole of the can. Not a hard strike, but enough to wreak havoc...

    Suppressor for P22

    Re: Suppressor for P22 Do any of you have any blowback issues when running the P22 with a suppressor ? I have an AAC Aviator on mine and it will throw powder back in my face every time I pull the trigger. End of a shooting session my front shirt pockets will be full of powder :| Same...

    Which 50 BMG to buy?

    Re: Which 50 BMG to buy? My opinion on the matter: If you have a budget under $5k to start with, you might reconsider the big .50. You've indicated you're not going to reload for this caliber and, to be honest, it is the only way you're going to get the accuracy you want out of it...

    get set up for reloading

    Re: get set up for reloading Consider what rounds you're going to be putting through it. A .308 may work well in the press you're looking at but what happens if you venture into the bigger calibers . . say .338LM or even a .50bmg ? You needum bigum press capable of handling rounds that...

    223 reloading question

    Re: 223 reloading question Reloading manuals tend to differ slightly in the information they provide so, even then, you still get to experiment a bit. Manual A will provide data on A,B,C powders, while Manual B will do the same for powders X,Y,Z. My opinion, buy a few of them and read...

    Barrett 98b

    Re: Barrett 98b Shoots rather well imo. Using handloads I have put five shot groups into .3 at short range ( 100 yds ). No long range testing done yet as the only ranges in the area that can go long distance don't allow the big guns to come play. :| ( no .50, .338, or anything Cheytac )

    50 cal bmg

    Re: 50 cal bmg lrs50bmg is right on the money. Long throat is an understatement. I can't push the round out enough to find the lands without it leaving the case. I have shot Barret's ammo through it, then switched to handloads due to the price. Standard ball tips, AP tips and AMAX...

    Cheapest Lapua Brass

    Re: Cheapest Lapua Brass If you really want to feel good, compare the .308 Lapua brass with its OMGWTFAREYOUSERIOUS .338 brother. . . . $300 for 500 pieces is outstanding considering 100 pieces of .338 LM is about $250

    Bell & Carlson Medalist/Pics Added

    Re: Bell & Carlson Medalist B&C make a very nice stock. I have the Tac Medal A5 installed on a Rem 700 VTR in .223. VAST improvement over the stock that comes with that rifle. Dropped right in with zero issues. Shoots under .5 all day long. Couldn't possibly be happier with it.

    Bayou Rifles- Should I join?

    Re: Bayou Rifles- Should I join? I kicked around this very question a few months back. I was actually quite happy to find a 1000 yard range in the Houston area until I read the restrictions on the rifle types. :| Talk about getting crushed . . . lol That is the sole reason I am not a...

    Gun Shops Houston, TX

    Re: Gun Shops Houston, TX I suppose you should give us an idea what side of Houston you'll be moving into. It's rather large and traffic makes it a beast to travel from one side to the other South Side down I-45 is ProDefense ( also carries LE uniform and gear ) and The Arms Room in League...

    Barrett 98B

    Re: Barrett 98B This thread hasn't been touched in a few months now, but I thought I would add my .02 ( for what it's worth ) on the Barret 98B. 1) If you wish to use the magazine, rule out any ideas of seating right off the lands. Not going to happen. Big gap between the lands and the...

    Hornady Super Performance

    Re: Hornady Super Performance Depends on the round I suppose. I have had good luck with Hornady tips in both .308 and .223, but abysmal performance in .338LM ( both 225 and 250gr ) so far. It doesn't help there isn't any load data on the 250gr tips in the latest Hornady Edition ( 7th I...

    Substitute for Varget

    Re: Substitute for Varget The powder might be expensive locally, but remember you're not paying the !@#$!@# hazardous shipping fee ( $20 ) if you have to order it online. If you can get your primers and powder locally, then consider it a blessing in disguise
