    Shorty bolt gun handloaders, powder question.

    So, I was in a discussion with a dude, about using faster burn rate powders in shorty 16-18” rifles, specifically bolt guns.

    Another weapon light thread… this time with a twist

    First off, I did search the other threads, and pretty much, only learned how many lumens I need to clear a room. This ain’t that kind of thread… I’m in need of a weapon mounted light for a bolt gun! Mounted via pic rail at 3 o’clock (the rail is already there). 100% outdoor use. The only “room”...

    Any magical elixirs for removing carbon build up from muzzle?

    Just like the title says, what are guys using? I’ve been soaking with hoppes 9 and scrubbing with a nylon brush. That takes awhile, I’m looking for something easier. Also, I’m 100% suppressed.

    6x47 Lapua, 115 dtac's in a 1-8?

    Pretty much what the title says. Looking for info, more so if they'd stay stable out to 1k, but also curious if Varget's been used with these or if it's pretty much something slower like 4451? I'm using a 26" bartlein, suppressed, chambered by PVA, average DA's I shoot in are between -2000 to...
