    Triad stock pack

    Adding the second zipper is a win. Getting "zipper pull eye" was the only complaint I had about the original version.

    Suppressors Cleaning a sealed can with Stainless Media

    Those little SS Media pins will find a way to wedge themselves alongside the baffles, or in one of the vent holes for sure. If you've got a pin wedged in the 4th baffle of 6 or something, how are you going to manage to dislodge it. Unless you've got one of those flexible surgical scopes with...

    Shooting Mats - Midway vs Voodoo vs ???

    My Voodoo mat had no bipod loops or anchor straps. Also doesn't have grommets for staking it down in windy environment. Very well made, and plenty padded, but I picked up a Midway pro mat couple years ago and haven't really used the Voodoo since. If I have to carry it far, would take the...

    Shot timers?

    I like the Pocket Pro II as well for several reasons including that it is easy to read with the display facing upward, clips onto your belt or bag easily, and is very loud. It is extremely reliable, and even with few control buttons it is very simple to setup either normal use or par time...

    Range Report MagnetoSpeed sensitivity settings

    Check the manual specific for your version as well. I believe the V3 goes from level 1 to 12. The concept is that metal jacketed bullets are easy to detect and require a low sensitivity, and slow moving (<1000 fps) or solid lead projectiles require a higher sensitivity for reliable detection...

    Project Appleseed

    I heard an interview on NRA News with them this week that indicated they have shortened their name to just Appleseed, but their website still indicates "Project Appleseed". Not that it makes any difference in the quality of the instruction, but wondering if there are any other planned changes...

    Sharing scope and scope mount with AR?

    To make this work well, and fit you comfortably on both rifles, it helps if you have an adjustable cheek riser on your bolt gun. There are stock packs and homemade cheek riser options as well, so it can be workable. Consider that a typical Medium ring is around 0.9" and 1.0" (from top of rail...

    Sorry to hear of Chester's passing. He and his fellow Code Talkers were true heros, and served with distinction. I highly recommend his book: Code Talkers: The First and Only Memoir By One of the Original Navajo Code Talkers of WWII Code Talker: The First and Only Memoir By One of the...

    Hornady steel match?

    I haven't had any problems with the 75gr Hornaday Steel Match in rifles; but had a lot of difficulty last year with the Hornaday Steel Match 125 gr 9mm. Was getting lots of cycling problems, and had to do malfunction drills in two stages of a match. We tested that batch of 9mm in 5 different...

    Who / Which method of using stainless steel tumbling media is best?

    +1 for de-priming before tumbling. I measure the Lemishine in my Thumler's tumbler @ 1 empty 9mm case per batch. That method was posted in another forum a couple years ago and seems to be about right. There were also a couple threads back then discussing cold vs. hot, and if I recall, the...
