Does anyone have any experience running the IR Defense MK III x 60 as a clip-on? I would like to try running it in front of my Kahles K624i on a 223AI because for what I'm doing I will need to be able to shoot at least 600 yards. I've run this scope on an AR-15 since 2014 (it started out as a...

The screw that locks the Zero-Stop on my BEAST scope stripped. I called NF and was told this is a "hand burnished" part and that I had to send the scope back for repair. However, taking a VERY close look at the problem, I discovered that the screw is only about 3/16" long and only engaged 3...

For those who have tested it, have you seen a difference in MV shooting with a suppressor, compared to shooting without it? I understand the POI change, so am just interested in feedback on any noticeable MV changes. Thanks ahead for info. Jim

....gotten longer!!! Spoke with a CS Rep at NF this afternoon, and was told the talk around there is that civilian orders won't probably be shipping until June. They are busy filling Military orders. While I completely understand this, it's still disappointing! I have been waiting since...

I am interested in hearing from anyone who has switched from the 4500NV with ATRAG to the 4500NV with Applied Ballistics. The ATRAG model has treated me well for the past few years and I'm wondering if there is any real advantage to "upgrading" to the new model. Any opinions with real world...

When doing sub-sonic load development for 300BLK, is it best to shoot groups at 50 or 100 yards? I am working with a bolt gun. Just wondering which distance guys with experience would recommend.

Got a copy of Bryan's book with the AB CD in it. Loaded AB on my computer and started playing with it. I got out my Kestrel 4500NV, with ATRAG, and matched the environment on the computer with what the Kestrel said. When I had all info matched, my solutions from the two were very different...

When using these dies, do you use them with or without the expander ball? I have heard both ways, but would like some opinions. Thanks, Jim

Dealing with subsonic loads, has anybody done any testing on primers with 300 BLK loads? I've been using Rem 7 1/2's because that's what comes in the brass. Going to start reloading fire-formed brass. Just wondering if anybody has taken their developed load and tried it with other primers to...

Does anybody have an idea about how many times 300BLK brass can be reloaded? I have both a gas gun and a bolt gun. At this time, all my brass is AAC. I have never "made" brass from 223 cases. PS I should mention I only shoot these guns sub-sonic.

Has anyone received one of these yet? What are your opinions?

Can some of you guys with this press please look at the base under the primer seater and tell me if you have an indent. I have been having problems with seating depth on 45 ACP loads. I noticed yesterday that there is an indentation in the press base where the primer seater touches it...

Has anybody used this trigger? Please provide feedback about how well it works, or doesn't. Thanks, Jim

Just wondering if anybody knows which primers AAC uses in their brass....??? I have developed a good sub-sonic load, and will have to reload my once fired brass at some point.

Curious to hear what you guys have to say about the placement of the baffle in the powder hopper. As the level in the hopper changes, so do the charge weights. What are some of your ideas about maintaining consistent charges based on the position of the baffle in the hopper?

Does a concentricity gauge indicate anything about neck tension? I use Lapua brass and have never neck turned them. Most have been fired at least 5 times. I use Forster NS and bullet seating dies, and checking with a concentricity gauge, I seldom find any that have over .001 runout. No...

I know there are lots out there that don't like Hornady One-Shot. You are NOT the ones I wanna hear from. I'm just wondering how people apply the lube to their cases. I spray the lube on a cleaning patch and apply it to the outside of the case by twisting the case neck and shoulder in the...

Does anybody have an idea for keeping a flash hole deburring tool from clogging? I find that I have to clean my flash hole debur tool after about each 5 cases. Any ideas? Thanks, Jim
