    Ballistic FTE problem?

    Re: Ballistic FTE problem? If you shoot east or west (or any azimuth other than 0º or 180º) you might want to turn Coriolis to "ON" and use it. At 33º North Lat (Dallas - where I live), shooting a typical 260, Coriolis accounts for +.3 MOA at 1000 yds at 90º and -.3 MOA at 270º. Basically...

    300 BLACKOUT

    Re: 300 BLACKOUT i've had a 16" AR Whisper for a year or so. There is a huge difference in sound from an AR vs a bolt gun both running a can. You still get the gas out of the bolt crack with the AR that the can can't do anything about plus all the damn cycle noise. If you really want quite...

    Gunsmithing is it possible to build a bolt action 9MM rifle

    Re: is it possible to build a bolt action 9MM rifle Just a thought..... Suppressed rifles in pistol calibers are a bit of an oxymoron. The whole point of suppression is noise control. The whole point of a longer barrel is more velocity which makes it very difficult to keep pistol rounds...

    Re: FLUSH CUP ALTERNATIVES Tom Manners turned me on to GrovTec a couple of years ago. That's all he supplies. Never had a failure yet. Don't know what McM supplies but they work with GrovTec swivels and the swivels that TAB supplies work well with Manners and McM.

    Gunsmithing The blueprinting debate. . .maybe this will help.

    Re: The blueprinting debate. . .maybe this will help. Big +1 on the PE feature. IMHO, a custom push feed action with a well designed strong PE feature and an M16 style extractor in the bolt is just as good as any controlled feed claw. The religious argument is then reduced to the whole...
