Hi guys! Well I have been working on something special for the past few months that I thought might interest you: I was in need of a magnum cartridge that could go well my beyond what I do with my 308 at 1200 yards. So I began the seemingly endless journey of selecting a caliber to the job...

Hello everyone, Does anyone have on of these loadings? I heard about this recently and can't get my mind off of it. I have 338 barrel blank that I'm tempted to chamber on this caliber loaded to CIP length. And just so you know, I have a 338 Edge already...so spare me the comments that I...

I put this in the gear review section, but I also wanted to put it here as well in case anyone may have missed it. Good review and I am looking forward to purchasing one of these soon. Primary Arms Micro Torture Test

This is a good review going on here. I can't wait to see how well this optic holds up to all the upcoming tests. Just thought I would share in case you're like me and want to see more tests with the PA optics. Primary Arms Torture Test

Hello all, I have been reading a lot about shooters getting excellent results with the heavy 308 projectiles like the 208 AMAX and others. I ventured to try this myself with Hornady's 208 hpbt since the AMAX is basically non-existent currently. I am using a Savage 10FCP 5R 24" barrel with a...

Hello all, I just put an Auto on layaway and wanted to hear from you on how reliably your Autos have performed/what has broken/maintenance. I know Gas Autos use o-rings and such vs Inertia, so please no Inertia responses. How many rounds before an o-ring needs replacing? Any other issues?

Hello, How many of you have sent off a barreled Savage action to be treated with the melonite/nitride process? I plan on using MMI Trutec. thanks.

Hello all, I would like to hear from you who have tried this combination and if you don't mind, please give me your rifle/load specs. I will be trying this in my Savage 24" 5R 1/11.25 twist with Hornady 208 HPBT. thanks.

Hello, I am in the process of building a precision long range platform off of a Savage 10 action, using a 26" 7mm-08 target barrel. I want to know you guys experience with this cartridge at long (1000+ yards) distance and what kind loadings you're using. I am attending a 5 day sniper course...

Hello, Have any of you loaded the 180 VLD's in your 7mm-08? If so, what's your recipe/results? Just curious.

Hey everyone. I am looking to hear from people who have used linear a compensator. 1) Do they have any effect on dampening recoil as some companies claim? 2) Do they reduce muzzle jump/climb as some companies claim? I know a linear comps main purpose is to direct the sound away from the...

I am building a .300 Blk SBR and was curious what a good brake or muzzle device is since the blackout burns powder better in short barrels.

What kind of velocity are you guys getting with < 10" barrels?

Hey guys, I am in the process of building a 9.5" 300 Blk pistol. What kind of velocity are you guys getting with similar setups? What muzzle brake do you recommend? I am interested in a KX3 but the more I think about it, the less I think a 300 Blk needs one as most of the powder is burnt when...

I have been testing a mk262 clone for weeks and here are some interesting results from the two guns I used to test velocity. Gun #1: 16" barrel, 5.56 NATO chamber, 5R rifling, melonite treated. Gun #2: 16" barrel, .223 wylde chamber, 3R rifling, melonite treated. The velocity on the 5.56...

Hello all, I am working on some heavy loads for my AR's chambered in 5.56. I have a ton of Benchmark powder, and have been using Hogdon's load data. I would like to know if any of you are using Benchmark for heavier loads, an what your load/veloctiy/accuracy is. Thanks.

Hey guys, I was shooting my AR yesterday and noticed that the case heads of my brass were getting marked/rubbed (see pic). The BCG is brand new. The loads I shot were PPU 55gr and some mk262 clones that I handloaded. I have an adjustable gas system too, so maybe I need to adjust the timing...

Hey guys! Has anyone used one of these? Any comments on recoil/muzzle rise/muzzle blast? I have used mostly baffle-type muzzle brakes on my guns, and I love them, except for the annoying muzzle blast (try laying down on your back and engaging a target with a muzzle blast slapping your legs)...

Which would you rather buy and why? Go!! For me, I would go for the G17, because the 9mm is more than enough for defensive purposes, and it will be a backup to my shotgun or rifle. My logic is I don't need more power, on the basis that the G17 holds 17+ rounds of moderate to hot loads, and the...

I bought a new barrel today for my AR. I think besides it not having a .223 Wylde chamber, it has everything else to be desired: I have used melonite barrels before and love them. I just needed this one so I could use my 1/2x28 suppressor mount...
