I bought a BCA side-charging upper over a year ago. Didn't get to using it much until recently. I'm impressed with how well it shoots. I'm a 1-2 MOA shooter with a good rifle. This $200 AR upper shoots 1-2 MOA. I fired 40 groups last Saturday. M widest was 2.2 inches at 100 yards. The smallest...

Looks like a Canadian soldier named Leonard Proteau set the record with a Dominion Marksman, model 190s, 22 rifle in 1967. an impressive feat for sure. it took him six months of range visits. He was just having fun, but the range kept score and eventually notified top brass. An amazing feat to...

What is the engineering purpose of the thin lines that run center down the length of a weaver rail? The weaver rail has so many nooks and crannies in the design. So many little corners and angle changes. But why?

I'm running a 16 inch barrel .223 with a 55 grain bullet going averaging 3,190 fps. That's rifle length velocity so is that pushing the limits on my gas system, or is the almost 200 fps hotter than average still just fine?

I'm trying to research the priming techniques used by CCI on their rimfire ammo. A basic search showed nothing. I'll contact CCI directly, but thought I might as well ask here too. What I really want to know, is if the Surefire CCI Priming is method is comparable to the spun cartridge method of...

My buddy was took his son to a competition. He had a Savage 110 ultralight in 270. He noticed his boy reacting more than usual to the recoil, which got progressively worse. The 20 the shot blew the primer. Dad tried it and blew the next three even worse. He immediately there out his hand loads...

I'm designing a printable target for people who visit my website and YouTube channel. It's going to part of my marksmanship challenge. Here's how it works: you print the target, shoot 10 shots at the prescribed distance ( different for irons and scopes) and have a buddy vouch for you. Then...

I'm going to run some long winded tests on ammo, mostly 22lr out of pistols and rifles. Some 22mag, and other handgun calibers. What's the best chronograph for small, slow bullets? And would it work fine for other calibers too? I'm putting one on my whish list soon. It will be used mainly...

I need a highly accurate scale. My budget is small. It's not for reloading, my buddy and I are going to run consistency checks on the bullet, brass, and charge of everything we have. We're also gonna run them through the gauntlet with my calipers and put em through a chrono too.

I've heard it said by quite a few people that the most accurate loads for their Glock 9mm happen to have a 124 grain bullet. We're talking basic FMJ. I haven't shot much 124 so I don't know what I think. It's for a Glock 19. What is your experience.

I'm looking to swap out the stock trigger on my gen 2 Glock 20. I see several options, but I don't really know how they compare. I want a nice crisp break. Mabey a bit lighter trigger pull than stock, but the current trigger pull weight doesn't really bother me much. What experience or...

Who still offers printed catalogs, specifically for ammunition? I had quite the collection of them as a kid. I had many of the balistics memorized, and knew what bullet was on what factory load. I have infrequent internet access connectivity, so I prefer books on the shelf. If physical...

I just bought four different boxes of Hornady Frontier for my 16 inch bull barrel DPMS .223 with 1:9 twist. The ones I bought were: 55 grain FMJ 55 grain hollow point match 55 grain spire point NATO M193 FMJ 55 grain I'm trying out one grain weight at a time. The price was sweet, and Hornady...

I never looked them. I always preferred more of a traditional in-line rifle. And I told my wife I wouldn't spend money on a gun for a while, but a guy I do side work for had a heavy barrel DPMS he bought around 04-05 and hardly fired it. We worked out a deal including 460 rds of wolf ammo...

I'm gradually getting over my flinching problem and improving my accuracy. I've brought the groups down from 6" to under 2" at 100 yards. Saturday, I went to the range with my ruger american .308 topped with a Vortex Viper HS. The last time I shot it, I thought I had it fairly zeroed, but I...

Do barrel dampeners like the Limbsaver actually work? Is there some formula or standard rifles that tend to work with this?

Will be buying my first press soon. I don't need anything fancy. Will be reloading 54R, .223 ,.308, 9mm ,10mm. I want cheap and reliable. What product, or brand should I steer clear of?

I'm considering doing some side work in trade for a sweet 16, purchased mabye ten years ago. It has a nice BARSKA benchmark scope. Fired less than fifty times. In immaculate condition. What are opinions on the sweet 16?

What are the best deals have you seen advertised so far?

I'm curious as to what's the heaviest 22WMR bullet you have come across?
