    Tbac muzzle break

    Today I tried installing my TBAC muzzle break and I took some of the peel washer off and at hand tight the break was a just slightly past timed. I got the thinnest piece of peel washer I could which bent slightly and holding the action in my hand I could get a wrench to get the break perfectly...

    Intellidropper vs chargemaster lite.

    Does anyone have any experience with both of these. I have used the regular chargemaster before and really liked it. Based on that and price with discount some I was going to go with the chargemaster lite. However I was recently offered a frankford Arsenal intellidropper for a great price but no...

    Load Dev and Magneto Speed

    So though I have reloaded a lot I have never really tried to fine tune my loads for a rifle. I just loaded up a known working loaded and didn't try to make it better. As I prepare to build my 6GT I want to make it the most accurate load I can. The magneto speed sporter is $180 vs the $340 for...

    Starting Over Gear list

    So I did reloading many years ago and as I look at building my precision rifle I am comparing costs of reloading vs just buying ammunition. In doing my gathering of costs I want to make sure my below lists is accurate and would like to ask what am I missing vs what is not really needed. I will...

    Custom Ammunition Manufacturers?

    So I can't convince my wife to spend the money to reload all up front and though in the end it gets cheaper she is more okay with buying ammunition at like $500 a purchase. I plan on shooting 6GT so I have to go with PRIME, Clays Cartridge Company or Copper Creek Ammunition. As anyone shot the...

    Barrel Flutes

    I'm considering having barrel flutes done on my next barrel. I know they say it provides more surface area so helps cool the barrel faster in theory. My concern is since I will almost always be shooting it with a TBAC suppressor on it and that things out part of the barrel can spiral fluting...

    Suppressors Form 4 preservation

    Excuse my ignorance I have never owned a suppressor before. From my understanding at the end of the day the tax stamp is just a piece of paper but it must be with the suppressor at all times. How does everyone protect their tax stamp to prevent it from accidental damage such as rain or...

    Suppressors I'm no suppressor fanatic but WOW TBAC

    So I just don't usually have the types of funds to buy suppressors and generally would rather buy ammo than a bunch of suppressors. As I get ready to build my precision rifle I felt I wanted a suppressor for it specifically. After a ton of research the majority of the advice was, if it's for a...

    PST Gen II 5x25 or Strike Eagle 5x25

    I was very strongly considering getting a Bushnell XRS for my scope for my rifle. I will be using the rifle for mostly target shooting on the range with maybe one hunting trip and one or two PRS matches a year. My scope budget has been cut a good bit and I know some of you will recommend keep...

    Maverick Sandman L or Nomad 30

    Need some opinions here. Most of my shooting will be done without a spotter so I need to be able to try and spot my own shots. For this I went with 6GT over 6.5 creedmoor. Most of my shooting will just be at the range plinking but I hope to shoot 1 or 2 PRS matches a year. Should I go with the...

    Moving this here after recommendations. I work in computers and do a lot of programming. I noticed the advice most often given for finding powder online is to regularly check various web sites throughout the day. I am considering writing a binary for windows or linux or Mac computers that you...

    Rimfire CCI 22lr

    I have 300 rounds. The varmint one has been opened but all rounds are there. I honestly don’t know a fair price for these so I don’t want to gouge but don’t want to rip myself off. I can’t ship. Face to face in the Northern VA area. I guess I will start asking $30

    Which barrel.

    I know this is going to probably be based on opinions so I’m going to get a ton of different answers all based on opinion but still going to seek the advice. I am torn between 3 barrel options right now. Option 1: Preferred barrel blanks all done in house and the cheapest of all. Mostly great...

    Preferred Barrel Blanks accuracy question and more

    So I have read on here it seems when preferred barrel blanks started they had some quality issues with head space but it seems they have fixed that in recent years. Anyone have recent experiences and pictures of the accuracy? Also any comparisons on barrel life for a barrel from preferred barrel...

    Defiance tenacity question

    So this action has an integrated recoil lug but straight jacket armory seems to be the only place that offers prefit barrels? Would ruckus prefit fit this as well or why doesn’t anyone offer prefit barrels for the Defiance Tenacity?

    6.5 Creedmoor or 6GT

    So I'm getting ready to build a rifle and the rifle will be used mostly for target shooting and some PRS (1 or 2 matches a year) and maybe hunting 1 day or 2 a year. I can only afford one barrel at the moment and was recently offered a great deal on Proof Research prefit 6.5 creedmoor stainless...

    Gear choice

    So hear is my dilemma and I would like to see some input from others especially those with suppressors. I have a GA Precision 6.5 creedmoor and a remington 700 .308 in an aics. I have one bushnell XRS 4.5-30x56 scope that I currently switch back and forth between guns. The problem is I can only...

    Folding stock effects

    I am going to be ordering a surgeon rifle soon and have a question. If I order with just a regular aics 1.5 chassis it will be 4-6 months for what I want. They have a rifle ready to ship with everything the same as I want except it has an ai ax chassis. My question is with the break in the stock...
