    Suppressors TBAC Direct Thread

    So a few years ago I got a TBAC 30P-1, I had my barrel threaded 5/8x24 by my gunsmith and I had tried it with a few different brakes with no problems. When I screwed the TBAC can on it was fine for a couple trips to the range and then it seized. I had to send the barreled action back to TBAC...

    Suppressors TBAC 30p-1

    So i got my can finally and it sounds great but after only 20 rounds, I am absolutely furious. The suppressor is stuck halfway. It threaded on smoothly but it was a little tight. I noticed the threads on the can itself were a little rough but I thought they would smooth out after a little use...

    Why is this here??

    Did SH make a deal with the devil to get a CTD ad on every thread?

    Feedback on rear bags

    Ever since I've been shooting, I've used a sock with dry rice in it for a rear bag (it's a green army sock that the dryer spared, so it's tactical lol). I've been looking at several commercially made and the DIY thread rear bags. What about them would be better than my field expedient rear bag...

    Shout out to Ceylon and Delta Outdoorsman

    I ordered a skid plate the other day and it just showed up in the mail today. I was surprised to see a personalized thank you card from Ceylon in the box. It's that kind of individual attention to even a small order that will keep me coming back. Thanks!

    Forster FL die inconsistencies. Help!

    I switched does from a lee fl sizing to a forster bench rest fl die honed to .336 for lapua brass. Now the problem is the some of the brass won't hold the bullet. It just falls in. It isn't all of the brass though, just about 50% of them. I've made adjustments but it won't compress the neck any...

    Load data?

    So I reload .223, .45, and 9mm. Handload .308 and .338 LM. I have a good base knowledge of loading but I don't know everything. My buddy shoots 30-06 and brought over dies, brass, powder, primers and bullets. He wants me to help him work up a load. He doesn't feel the need to shoot past 700-800...

    Went to the range to zero today

    So I just put a new scope on my R700 .308. It's a Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50, vortex precision matched rings. I zeroed once last week at 100yds and was running out of elevation in the turrets and it was a few thousands of an inch misaligned. I tore it down and put a badger 20 MOA base on it...

    Hornady LNL powder drop issue

    I lucked into an LNL at cabellas the other day and got it all ready to go and noticed on the trial run that the case activated powder drop is misbehaving. When I run the case into it with no powder in the hopper (haven't tried it with powder yet) the arm raises but does not reset when I lower...

    Rifle Scopes Zero question???

    I just changed the scope on my .308 700 to a Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50. I went to the range today to zero it and I got it dialed in pretty quickly, the problem is that it took 2 full turns of both elevation and windage to get to zero and now I only have almost one turret revolution of adjustment...

    Short brass

    So I bought some once fired lapua brass and I was measuring it before I started my case prep process, turns out the guy I bought it from was a little over zealous with the trimmer. It is trimmed to 1.99", I keep mine at 2.07". Am I screwed with this brass? I know 0.1" isn't a lot but I've only...

    Suppressors NFA Trust bank account?

    So I stopped by my FFL today to full out a Form 4 and he advised me to open a checking account and pay the stamp tax with a check from the account so there is a paper trail. I guess it would be to prove that the trust is not just for acquiring a NFA item. My problem with that is - that's exactly...

    Alternate powders

    Due to the short supply of Varget, I am looking into other powders. I'm leaning toward accurate 2015. By the numbers on the chart, I should get more velocity with less grains and less pressure. Does anyone have any other experience or recommendations? It's going to be used in a .308 Win with...

    Rifle Scopes Has anyone ran into this problem?

    I recently bought a Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50 from another hide member. I love the scope, no problems there. I was looking at butler creek flip ups to put on it and I started thinking about clearances. Since it has the illumination selector turret on the eyepiece, has anyone had any problems with...

    Kestrel 4500NV Horus

    Ok so I got one of these toys in hopes that having the most accurate data would help me get more precise calculations for drop/wind and help me log dope for different conditions, and in theory - make me a better shooter. Only problem is the instructions that came with it suck. I've tinkered...
