Siscoe, here's where it seems a lot of us are coming from: There is a SUPPOSED to be a delineation between the standing military, which, under Posse Comitatus, is NOT supposed to operate (in a non-training capacity) within our national borders, and the police, who are tasked with enforcing...

Wow, glad I found these... Sorry I hadn't seen them earlier. Guess I don't troll the forums enough...

Mr. Bodywerks, sir, with all due respect, take one of the turret plates for your Lee, and put it in there. Now wiggle the plate side to side and in a rotary motion... You see the VISIBLE amount of movement in there? That's nearly 100 thousandths of SLOP in your loading process, or +/- .050 if...

Red, pulling bullets will indeed change the tension of the necks of your brass. How much depends on the age of the brass, and how work hardened it is (firing, resizing). If you've got a neck size die, pull the decapping pin and hit those bad boys up. If you're not neck sizing (i'm not except...

Sorry to drag an old thread up from the depths, but I'm facing a situation where I'm going to need to run compressed loads in my gas gun... What percentage of compression is safe before you start breaking kernels of double-base powder and effing up your burn rates (double base powders having...

I've searched to no avail, so I'm asking you all: The chamber on my DPMS SASS is 3.04" OAL to put the ogive on the lands, plus a few thousandths depending on how hard I'm pushing. I'm mag length limited to 2.845" (but probably won't exceed 2.840") and I'd like to seat Berger 168 Target VLDs...

Re: Picatinny Rail on Round FF Handgard Thanks, John! Any recommendations for attachment hardware? will it be burly enough to just tap holes into an aluminum handguard or should I procure something to put inside the handgard for support?

I need to install a 2" section of picatinny rail on a round FF hand guard. Kits or a decent drill and install solution would be preferable. Solutions?

Re: Double Star?? Just picked up a Doublestar SuperMatch 24" upper on a CMMG lower with Magpul butt and grip, can't wait to take this thing shooting...

Re: Triangular Shaped Groups Customgun1, this brings up the puzzling part for me: I put down 3 groups, each about 1.3 grains more powder than the last, each within about .2" of each other overall in terms of group size. Slowest in the middle, medium all around, and fastest was the largest...

Re: M1 Garand. H&R or Springfield? I ran across a lengthy dissertation on the contractors for M1 and M14s, they were in favor of the H&Rs over the Springys for the same reasons Sinister mentioned. My M14 (yes, I know, different rifle) is H&R barrel and bolt, sprinfield receiver (modern)

Re: Options for 7.62/308 battle rifles I've owned several FALs, all frankenstein-ed together. They shoot reliably, but reliably inaccurately unless you put some work into them. Toughest battle rifle package out there, bar none and for hogs/shtf you probably can't do better. Depending on...

Re: Hoping rifle when shooting with a bipod... Lol I'd probably get my first clue behind a rifle...

Re: Hoping rifle when shooting with a bipod... ...I guess I'll have to find the sweet spot and learn how to not over-load the bipod.

Re: Hoping rifle when shooting with a bipod... This is an intriguing subject, considering the amount of issues I have with it. -LL, how does one with a Harris bipod 'fix' the issue of that brand not having any slack to take up? I'm not entirely sure, but it seems like my GG&G suffers from...

Re: Triangular Shaped Groups lol i'm not talking about some picasso-looking thing, but perfect isosceles triangles. And it's easy, pull the trigger one way or another as you're releasing the sear, it'll string horizontally very nicely. Trust me, I'm usually really good at it >.<

Re: Hoping rifle when shooting with a bipod... Is it just tall guys, or am I the only one who has trouble figuring out the correct amount of pressure to place into the butt of the rifle? It seems like either I'm hopping or I push the bipod forward, and i'm hopping... thoughts?

Re: How many people here "snap in"? I snap in, and it's working!!! the training videos here have been responsible for a huge amount of increase in consistency in my shooting, and likely a lot of the accuracy improvements I've been seeing lately, too...

Re: Triangular Shaped Groups LL, thanks for dropping by! Best group was .724" c2c, worst was .818" c2c, wind was ~15 mph from 10 oclock. Wierd thing was I was going up .5gr. with each group. I think I'm going to take the best one and seat it out a few different lengths and see how it...

Re: Neck pain when shooting prone? Boiler, as a practicing orthopedic massage therapist, I'm pretty sure a couple of things are happening that contribute to your soreness: 1) not being used to the hyperextension (rolling your head back on your neck) is causing overuse of those muscles...
