I "inherited" these bullets. 75 grain, double cannelure bullets. I'm not familiar with this - how does one go about reloading in terms of seating depth? What's the purpose of this anywawy??

Probably a stupid question, but how do I go about filing an e-form to SBR an AR? Is this an online thing that I can access?

I recently purchased a new Eotech EXPS 3. I put it on my SBR'd 556. After about 50 rounds I have had issues where the red dot spontaneously shuts off. I changed the battery, but i doubt that is the problem, since the Eotech powers up fairly quickly when I hit the on button. The bright/dimming...

I have been reloading for several years - most 9mm on my Dillon 550b. Recently, I started reloading 223 as well. Do any of you use different brand dies for each station? I don't like the dillon seater die and use a Lee for that station. Just curious if you all found a specific die you like...

I have been using my Dillon 550b for a couple of years for 9mm and 223 without any problems. Today, I noticed that every 5th round my Dillon went bonkers and threw enough powder to overflow the case (Using Varget for 223). No problems earlier this morning. I am in the process of emptying and...

For those of you who shoot the 224 Valkyrie in bolt, what twist rate performs the best and which gun maker do you like the most? I have always wanted to shoot the (very) expensive MPA Valkyrie, but I'm not sure if it is worth the moolah.

Probably an idiot question - but what is the advantage of a shortened barrel that is then P&W'd to make it legal length??

Does it make a difference what parts kit one uses when assembling a lower? I have used CMMG and Colt - no problems whatsoever. Just wondering if there is a preference amongst you more seasoned builders.

I have various 10/22 and Kidd parts occupying space on my work bench - so I am looking to assemble another 22 for the grandkids. Is there an appreciable difference between a Kidd receiver and the standard Ruger 10/22 receiver?? From what I can see, if there is any difference it is minimal

In 1858 the venerable Oliver Wendell Holmes wrote a poem entitled the "One Wonderful Hoss Shay". Basically it was about a deacon who built a shay out of top notch materials as he was tired of having his current carriages fall apart a piece at a time. In the long run, the shay he built...

What would be the shortest barrel that one can use as a reliable suppressor host in 5.56. 10+?? 11+?? 14.5"?? I have read about blowback in the shortest barrels and am not anxious to play that game - but I have no experience with SBR'd ARs...

For shooting 100 yards and less has anyone used a red dot plus a magnifier as your primary optic? I recently mounted and Eotech on a new 22 and was surprised at how easy it was to sight in and to shoot. However, it became apparent that some magnification was necessary at 100 yards for my 70...

For those of you over 60 who don't have perfect vision - how does your current visual status effect your choice of scopes? Do you prefer certain types of scopes/magnifications/FOV? Have you gravitated to certain scope makers because you feel their scopes meet your needs the best? I am 71 and...

Has anyone used this scope on your 22? I am getting a Tippmann elite which is fairly accurate, but not a competition level gun. So I don't need a super powered optic. I have watched some YouTube videos with shooters using the Hawke scope ( and they are highly complimentary of same) - but I...

Anyone have any experience with the Tippmann M4-22 Micro Elite .22LR AR pistol? From what I can pick up from some investigation these appear to be fun little plinkers that are reliable and aren't picky about ammo.

Looking for good condition items as listed in title. PM if you have any to sell. Also looking for 6.8 SPC case gauge, RCBS uniflow baffle.

Does anyone use custom dies? Are they worth it? I want to squeeze all the performance out of my hand loads possible, but I am far from a precision shooter compared to many. It looks like, cost aside, that a custom die may make loading ammunition a little more fool proof all other things being...

I am looking for a lightly used Kidd 10/22. Match barrel, threaded, 18" Let me know if you have one to unload!

Looking for 1 possibly two 30mm Bobro QD scope mounts. PM if you have some to sell!

I just purchased a NF8 scope and discovered that all my rings are 34 mm. I want to get a 30 mm quick detach set of rings for this- what do you all recommend?
