    Attending a tactical match with a "physical profile"

    What's the protocol on injuries in tactical matches? Are you just DQ'ed from any stage you can't physically perform or will the RO let you perform a modified version?

    175smk seating depth

    I know that the 175smk is considered a jump tolerant bullet, but is there an optimal jump range that the smk prefers to be within?

    Hunting & Fishing Deep in the heart of Texas

    Had a great Thanksgiving, good food and great people. My dad and I woke up early the next morning, shook off the whiskey, and started the five hour drive to paradise - at least the closest thing to it in Texas... The Hill Country. The hunting was slow with the moon being so bright...

    7mm SAUM Brass

    I was all set to add a 7saum barrel to my DTA collection, but I've hit a dead end with the brass. I have been searching the web and local gun shops and everyone is out.... Anyone have any leads on where I can get my hands on some? Might have to start rethinking the caliber for the new 7mm...

    A woman walks into a store, and asks the man at the counter; "Where are the batteries?" He replies; "Come this way." (while gesturing with his finger for her to follow). She responds; "If I could come that way I wouldn't need the batteries."

    Thinking of cutting my 26" .308 down

    I currently have a 26" .308 DTA barrel that shoots great, but I'm wanting a short barrel for my DTA rig and the .308 is the best candidate. My question is would it be ill advised to cut down a 26" barrel to 16"? - Will it affect the current accuracy level of the barrel? - Is 1:10 twist enough...

    120gr 6mm VLD

    Has anyone heard any news about a 120gr 6mm VLD in the works. Don't know if it was just rumor, but I read on another board (think it was 6mmbr) that it would have a projected G1 BC of .7 Anyone care to comment or squelch this before I get my hopes up....

    DTA Covert 18" 300 win mag Load Data

    Been looking more and more into a covert length barrel for my DTA, to complement my 26", now that there is a hand guard conversion kit. And with SAC spinning up custom DTA barrels the option are there. Biggest thing holding me back is actually finding load data for short barrels.... Here is a...

    Suppressors Liberty Pandora Suppressor System

    Was originally looking to get a TBAC 30P-1 / 30BA, but started looking at the Pandora system. With its square bore portal and 32db of sound suppression it's hard not to consider. 30P-1 is one inch shorter, but cost $1245 for the can + muzzle brake, the Pandora cost $995 for can + muzzle brake...

    DTA SRS 26" Barrel .308

    Just picked up a SRS with a 26" .308 conversion kit and I'm trying to decide if I should have it cut down to 22". I plan on getting a 28" 7mm and 26" 260 conversion kits in the future. I figured I should have at least one of my barrels at 22", and the .308 is the best candidate for it. Anyone...

    260 vs 7 SAUM

    I've been looking at putting some big money into my next build and would like to know what the Hide community thinks. Round for tactical use, hunting, and competition: 260 vs 7 SAUM - The 260 has less recoil, but the 7 SAUM won't have much in a heavy rifle with a suppressor on it. - Both are...
