    Suppressors Talk me out of a K can

    Same here. I love my Sandman-K. I mostly shoot with other people around, so having the best sound suppression is not a priority. I just want to take the edge off. I mostly shoot bolt guns now-a-days, so it sits on my precision rifles. Other than that, it's on various SBRs. I bought the Sandman-K...

    American Rifle Company Black Friday and Cyber Week Sale

    Shouldered barrels all have the same dimensions for all the ARC actions. Lots of info here: https://www.americanrifle.com/support Drawings, torque specs, etc. Including Barloc installation instructions that will answer a lot of your questions. On a savage prefit without a shoulder, you can...

    Go to your user Preferences (Click on your username, upper right) and change the setting back to "Snipers Hide Dark (2020)". Same thing happened to me.

    Bike Packers, any of you use a frame pack?

This is an older article from a previous race he did... https://bikepacking.com/plan/dylan-taylor-american-trail-race/ Also includes the gear he used on the bike for the trip. For the pack, he used a Sala...

    Who all runs the ARC Nucleus action?

    But even if the action is cut for the AW, would the action just end up as a push feed with AW mags and would that be acceptable to you? I'd be OK with that for the most part, especially if it retained CRF if I could also use AI format mags when/if I wanted (meaning I could use AW and normal AI...

    Suppressors Ruined My Suppressor....

    I would convert it to Omega threads and use an omega to direct thread adapter. Then you'll have the option to switch to whatever you want. It's versitile. The only down side is that you can unscrew the Omega thread adapters when you unscrew the can, however you can locktite or rocksett the mount...

    Suppressors Ruined My Suppressor....

    He's pretty backed up, but it costs nothing to get on his list. He will contact you when he wants you to send it in. If I had an issue with my AAC can, I'd send it to him, no question about it. I had him convert my old M4-1000 with 18t mount to the Omega mount pattern. I'm now using the Dead...

    Suppressors 1:8 Lothar Walther blackout barrel

    I can't really help with the tempurature. I can't recall shooting my 300blk's in winter. Those are more fair weather guns for me. LOL. For my AR's, I use a 50 yard zero. For the Rem 700, I used 100 yard (higher magnification scope). The most accurate factory subsonic ammo I found was Silencer Co...

    Suppressors 1:8 Lothar Walther blackout barrel

    All of my 300BLK barrels are 1:8 twist (Two AR's (8" and 9" range) and one Remington 700 (16")) that I have had since the 300BLK stuff got popular (since AAC announced it, but I didn't run any Whisper barrels or anything) They shoot 220's just fine, but I haven't shot any game with them. I can't...

    Advanced Marksmanship MIL Range This......

    ~444 yards. Average male coyote shoulder height 24" (from google anyway), looks to be 1.5 mils. In meters: ~400 meters (60cm shoulder height, x 10)/1.5 = 400M (math is much easier in metric)

    Nucleus Build Pictures

    I'm running ARC M10 Low rings (24mm or .94") on my Nucleus with the Razor, but I'm also using a savage small shank barrel not a shouldered barrel, so the barrel diameter is a little smaller. I'd probably buy mediums today (32mm or 1.1") to make sure I can clear a full bull barrel with scope...

    Best free PDF Targets IMO MIL & MOA

    I made this one patterned after the ones that LaRue uses for their rifle test targets, but I made it Mil instead of MOA and increased the number of targets available to shoot. My Mil Target I print it on a laser printer with some heavier paper (not card stock, but not standard copy paper.) I...

    Suppressors Key Mo accuracy?

    Keymo is a taper system, so it's similar in function to all the other tapers (Plan A/B, TBAC, etc) that are known to be repeatable and solid in general. I'm a huge fan of Keymo and haven't had any issues with return to zero, group size, etc (Sandman-K and a keymo converted AAC M4-1000). I...
