    Subsonic 300 Blackout with H110

    I'll be completely honest I have no idea why it's louder with 1680. I chronod both rounds and are both right at 1050 Fps. But it's definitely audible when you shoot them side by side. Wish I could be more scientific with that.

    Subsonic 300 Blackout with H110

    Honestly if you can get some 4227 you'll like that better than 1680 or h110. I found it to work really, really well in supersonics with 147 m80 rounds, and 208 bthp and amax rounds. I compared the 1680 to 4227 side by side as well in my 8.5" gun with SDN6 suppressor and the 1680 was noticeably...

    F T/R Competition How many are using prepped lc brass for 308 ftr?

    I'm using LC 12-13 brass for F/TR comps. I neck turn to .0135, uniform the primer pockets and chamfer the flash hole. My load I use for my AI is giving me an ES of 12 and SD of 5.17. That's with IMR 4064 and 178AMAX loads. I'm sure that's not ideal for a lot of people. But last Sunday I shot a...

    Accuracy International Pics

    It shoots amazing. Had it out a couple times now with a decent amount of distance. Was shooting some reloads meant for plinking in my MATEN which are only loaded with 41gr of RL15 with pulled 175 SMK's and it was still just under a 4" group at 520 yards. I'm pretty happy with that to say the...

    Hello everyone. Just wanted to make a quick intro here. I'm Kris. I just got into the long range shooting thing, and love it. I recently picked up an AI AE MK3 Covert with 16" Bartlein barrel, and factory 20" barrel with break. Have not had time to shoot this thing much, but from what I...
