And care to share their experience? Do you load it so the legs push the rifle up? I shoot at slightly below horizon angles often and would like to use it as such, but it seems so inconsistent and flimsy. Not knocking Atlas, but with the pan, tilt, and play it seems you can load the legs unevenly...

So I have a good one for you guys: Official Site - XeroWind? This comes straight from the DARPA labs, and from what my source (who is involved with the project) tells me it works quite well. I was skeptical, but I'll let it talk for itself. The commercial site just launched, so you guys are...

I work on developing new materials for ballistic threat protection, and I have a few blocks of a newer polymer that has a very high fracture toughness (can absorb an absurd amount of energy) that I need to put rounds into this weekend before a trip to DC on Monday, does anyone have a place where...

Went to check the surf today at Blacks Beach in San Diego, and came across this at the Torrey Pines Gliderport (Torrey Pines Gliderport - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia). It appears to be and old .50 BMG casing (caliper'd the neck ID), not that interesting, but one has to wonder...

You guys are gonna love this one. The other night a buddy and I were packing the truck before heading out to the desert the next day to shoot when I realized I hadn't cut up the tires I got to hang our steel from the stands I made. In our efforts to be extremely lazy we had the idea to see if...

I'm finally getting around to building a bench to clean and work on guns as well as reload once I get started and I'm trying to figure out what I want to get out of it. I have about 6' 6" in length and 30-36" of depth depending on how high it will be (in garage and needs to clear cars), and will...

I picked up a set of the SH engraved JD Machine 308 receivers and am looking to build one of the uppers as a 6 Creed, but don't see any AR's other than GAP-10's chambered for it. Is anyone else building them?

In my infinite wisdom I broke a chip of a wooden dowel off into the gas tube while trying to half-assedly unseat my gas block. Really took the bubba-smithing to the max on this one. The only things I can think of are plugging the breech and chamber and blowing it out with compressed air or...

Does anyone have any good data on this? I work in a research lab that is working on armor, and am going to test some samples this weekend, hopefully using phone books to catch any rounds that aren't stopped by the samples. I need to know how deep a 7.62x39 round can penetrate through dry phone...

There's a fair amount of good information on this site regarding bolt gun and AR platform actions/receivers, but I can't find much addressing options for M1As. I've read that most stock NM/UM SAI M1As out-of-the-box just about as good as the M1A platform gets, but what are the reasons for going...

Well it took me long enough, lesson learned: if BigJoe tells you something is the best and to just buy it-do it. Thank you again Joe for your help and putting up with my impatient, curious ass. That said, I'm extremely happy he put me in contact with Centurion. This is the first AR I've ever...

I noticed the other day that the body of a Timney (510T) I have can shift side to side in the BA, like the trigger shoe can move side to side and contact the trigger walls. I've spec'd them with calipers and the body is .3020", compared to a Rem trigger that is .2995", while the slot cut in the...

I wanted to paint just my barreled action and bolt, as I was having problems with rust, but didn't seen any good guides that really did what I wanted, and showed how to paint the whole rifle, and didn't tape the areas I wanted/needed. So this is for those who want a little more "whole" paint...

Unlike those more fortunate I do not have a mill/lathe/arc welder at home for my personal projects, so I decided how well of a stand I could make with only a Dremel, for as little money, that fit my needs. Requirements: Transportable - must fit in back of SUV and disassemble to take up as...

When do you clean? What do you clean? What rod/bore guide/jag/brush/solvent/oil/etc. do you use? I still have yet to clean the 40x I had built last year, as I haven't really needed to until now, and I'm wondering what everyone does for high-quality rimfires shooting match ammo. I know to...

I remember a while back one member was selling caps for scopes that didn't allow for close-range parallax adjustment for indoor dryfiring, anyone remember who this was, or even better have a DIY solution? Really anxious to dryfire more, but it's too dark out to get the range to do it.

I'm sure someone has seen this; there's a company I saw a while back selling their own flavor of the popular DIY paracord rail grip but with some cordura panels covering the rails that looked really nice. I have an HTI Skid Pad on my SPR and after using that with a sling I'd like to try the one...

I started this after seeing in 2 different threads that people with Galaxy S4s (myself included in this group) and HTC Ones are having issues with these two apps (which are essentially the same at the heart). If you are having a problem with a new phone hopefully this thread can help the less...

I posted this in the Range Report section and didn't get any bites, and I hope someone here can help me out. I'm trying to figure out if match grade .223 Rem under-performs in a 5.56 chamber designed for MK262. I ask this because I know the NATO chambering should have a longer throat and I can't...
