Read up on 550C--everyone says get the turbo bearing. Problem: Going to UniqueTek site, all they have is the shellplate bearing kit T1601 and all the references to the turbo (or many of them) mention its $50, not $30. What part is the turbo bearing?

Been a while since I annealed (moving etc) I don't remember brass turning out silver/gray at the neck. This is 3X Fired, uncleaned, annealed by AMP. Nothing to be worried around? (If its fine everyone laughs and I'm a worry wort, If it isn't I blow myself up as my luck would have it)

Well was a rough day at the range this am, scope screw got loose and lost my windage. Anyway got that fixed up and was doing "ok" 9-10 ring on standard targets at 1000, prone off bipod heavy rear bag. I was working with a smith who brought a rifle for me to try out and was using his...

I'm a newer reloader, far from expert and have been 'learning' Current setup is a Lee single stage + Competition shell holders as I have a bitch of a time get proper shoulder setback (Starline brass because I dont wanna f good brass--I'm still learning). This time I was consistently at 0.0035...

Rough morning at 1k, that's another story (cold and shifty wind). Anyway, I've noticed I am getting vertical spread in my group. Peeking at my neighbor (who uses a very similar load) he had nothing like mine, and was fighting the wind. What would cause vertical movement in the shot ASSUMING...

Two articles that hit today. First a suprising (at least for me) take from Tucker Carlson with a slight army jerry reference https://modernagejournal.com/tucker-carlson-isi-how-revolution-happensand-how-to-stop-it/238713/ And the rise of the "Deep State" or the Administration in the early...

Is there a good "Intro" instructor for F-Class? I could use some specific instruction there as F-Class is more popular than PRS/NRL in my locale (And why not shoot both). Getting tips from the local gang and while not super impressive, I can get 190s at 1k but thats early morning with very...

Gonna go with a Blue 550C. I know Dillon has pacakge pre-set, but since I own a single stage, a lot of things I don't need (yet another calipers, scale, etc) What are the essentials to get a good startup on the 550C. Gonna try my 6.5 Manbun first, then move to 308, 223, 44mag, 45 Colt, etc...

What is the difference between a 298-3075 barrel blank and a 300-308 barrel blank I see 22 (Centerfire) has this as well for 218/219 - 224.

I see now that there are multiple firing pin sizes for the 737: 0.60 and 0.68 If the plan is to use 308 Bolt Face or Smaller what is the proper firing pin size to get or what is the practical difference between the two?

Trend I've noticed over the years, during winter EVERYTHING goes outta stock. Was looking around at building a rifle and most (not all) of the custom actions are out of stock and the big hitters for barrels as well. Any clue why this happens every winter? About 10 years ago when I was doing a...

How important is the handguard to overall accuracy in the AR world. I was thinking now that I can't find what I want, to just build a "small" and "large" upper--particularlly in small frame (large, I may still spring for seekins, or build of Aero Upper/lower) Is there anything to watch out for...

Was out a few months ago and my Eotech and Vortex Sparc decided they did no want to turn on in the cold weather. Went to change batteries yesterday and they both had no issues at 65F. Is this a thing (I'm used to Texas where 32 is "cold" and I had these out in the teens)? Given the current...

I k now it has been discussed before, but I'm not looking for one. I think I might try to develop one. What I lack is a ballistic solver. Now I could probably create one from scratch, but I wondered if there were open-source ballistic solvers out there I could incorporate. I know there is...

Since I have become "that guy" (I'm really not), a friend of my brother asked me to take a look at a Daisy 22 he bought. The bolt will not open and it appears this is a case of frozen grease (Model 2201, single shot youth rifle, yup Daisy made 22 LR!) from what I can see and my research. I've...

So i think I may have settled on a CDG from ARC as my "ELR" Entry gun. On reason is my plan to start with 300 PRC and then possibly switch to a 338 Style round (I see you 33XC), but if not, I've got a nice Long Action to play with. There's a lot of chatter in the original CDG thread about...

ANyone notice a lot of Fox News stories seem to be requiring you to 'create a free account' It seems to be when you are on mobile as I went to the same story on my desktop and it was fine. What in the hell is this shit? At first I thought it was entertainment news, but today it was the main...

Have seen and played with a few, but have not seen them mentioned here along with the usual suspects. Is there a reason why these (Kelby Atlas) are not as popular in this circle?

Lokel Yokel reported his precious firearm (hunting rifle) was stolen. (1) Given to him by his grandad who has passed (2) Left it in his car for 4 days If it weren't for shit for brains, we'd have no brains. Edit: all the fuckatrds on FB are "so sorry", "people suck" YEAH FUCKTARDS WHO LEAVE...
