Discovered if you reassemble your AR (after cleaning) with the bold rotated 180 degrees the wrong way in the carrier it no workie so well. Also discovered it's a booger to clear the result of said cluster in the field in the pitch black after squeezing off the first round at a hog while night...

User serviceable, all titanium, full auto rated, 30 cal can. Weighs 20+ ounces. $1,100.00. Swaps between direct threads and 90T Taper mount. Am I missing something? Who needs this? When would it be helpful to have a user serviceable 30 cal can? Seems heavy for titanium. Seems like in...

Started off with a factory Remington 700 action. Bolt was set up (from the factory) for 300 blackout. These bolt faces have the extractor and ejector in slightly different places than a standard Remington .384. Supposedly this was to make ejection of the short stubby 300 Blackout case...

I'm new to adjustable gas blocks. Looking for for confirmation and or advice. I adjusted the gas block per Seekins instructions. Tuned it specifically for running with a supressor. Works great. Brass is lightly tossed at the 3:00-3:30, locks back on last round, brass looks much cleaner and...

Was looking for a 12.5" AR Precision 6.8 SPC II barrel, but they are out of stock and will not be available for 90+ days. Any ideas on other quality 6.8 AR barrel manufactures that have stock on hand? This will be an under 200 yard hog killer. No need for an ultra match barrel.

I'm trying to get a feel for what to expect from a FLIR RS64 (35mm). I own a FLIR LS 64. The specs on these two units look very similar. I'm assuming the "picture" from the RS64 would be very similar to that from my LS64. Anybody have first hand experience with these two units?

I was recently given a Winchester 72 from my father who got it 20 years ago from one of his friends. The friend was the original owner, was 20 years older than my father and has since passed. So the story of this rifle has been lost. My question(s) revolve around what's the original purpose of...

Just thought I'd post this up in case anybody is looking... I got tired of constantly having to tighten and check my direct thread on Tirant 9 can on my 9mm SBR. Really hampers your shooting when you're thinking about baffle strikes every time you squeeze the trigger. General consensus seemed...

I'm looking for first hand experience with Leupold Mark AR Mod 1 scopes. More specifically their tracking/repeatability or lack there of. I'm looking at the 1-4x model for a 300 Blackout SBR. I like it for it's compact size. I tried a Vortex Viper PST 1-4, but it was too bulky for my...

Great info from silencershop.com. Understanding ATF e-Forms | Silencer Shop

Just opened a brand new, sealed box, set of Hornady 6.5 Creedmoor dies. Looks good except the decap/sizer is for a 6.5 Grendel (and is labeled as such). Almost seems fitting since I can't seem to find much in the way of brass, powder and bullets that play well together either. Oh well, I'll...

What velocity (range) would you guys recommend for 500/600 yard shooting with a 223 and 69gr SMKs? It's a 26" 1:9 barrel. I've got a light load performing exceptionally well at 100, but it's only just hitting 2,700 fps. Before I start an OCW test at distance I wanted to make sure I was in the...

I'm looking for a way to get an AAC 51t flash hider/suppressor mount on a 30 caliber barrel with an OD of 0.575. Clearly it's too skinny for 5/8x24 threads. So, does it sound like a reasonable idea to thread it 1/2x28 and permanently install the flash hider/suppressor mount? The 1/2x28 flash...

I've been struggling with a new case trimmer. Having all sorts of issues getting the cases square. Spent hours jacking with every adjustment and combination of parts. Finally (after many frustrating sessions) I called in a second set of eyes. My friend almost instantly saw the problem. The...

Save me from burning up components to discover the answer for myself... What impact does seating depth have on velocity? Will seating a bullet say 1/100th of an inch deeper have a noticeable impact on velocity? I'm speculating that a deeper depth will increase pressure??

I'm sure this has already been covered, but since Google hasn't re-indexed the site I can't find anything. I'm comfortable with my ability to identify signs of pressure in a bolt gun, but not so much with a gas gun. More specifically an AR 15. I'm working up a supersonic load for my 300 blk...

I have a couple hundred pieces of Lapua 308 brass that started life as factory subsonic rounds. The case heads are stained blue. Is this the same brass that's used in regular Lapua ammo and their reloading brass? Am I good-to-go on reloading this brass with super sonic rounds? Wouldn't...

Take a look at http://idleback.us/. It's almost an exact copy of the Snipers Hide template. Are they a vendor/partner or did they just outright "borrow" the design???

I purchased 2 AAC 7.62 51T muzzle breaks. One threads on easily and shoulders against the barrel. The second one goes on about halfway down the threads on the same barrel before it gets tough to turn. I stopped before applying any pressure for fear of damaging the threads. I don't have the...

I recently purchased a bunch of AR 500 gongs of various sizes. I'm in the middle of fabricating stands for them. I want them to be semi portable and take up as little space as possible. My initial design ideas revolved around the traditional saw-horse with chains to swing the gong from...
