My brother used 27gr ,AA1680 for 223 55gr fmj 😳

You read it correctly. My brother thought he had CFE 223 in his chargemaster when it actually had, A 1680 from reloading blackout, It didn't go well. He pulled the trigger ( bolt action gun) an he said he felt stuff hit him in the face. The bolt felt like it was welded in there. He didn't chalk it up to be a reloading issue so he dropped a round into a Ar. Well that didn't go well either. To add to the pressure problem a surpressor was attached. The mag blew out and apart and the BCG was like it was welded in there. Had to believe, He was totally fine. My question is, does anyone have the software to figure out what that pressure was and I'd love to know what that velocity comes out to be 😳 BTW he got the bolts out. The brass was molded into the bolt like it was poured into it. Bent the extractor.
I told him my rule is always when finished, dump the powder back into the container. Never have any other powder even near the bench that your not currently using.

effective load for 7mm 1:8 24' barrel

I am a left handed shooter and recently purchased a lh Fierce Carbon Rogue in 7mm Rem Mag. The fifle has a 24" carbon wrapped barrel with a 1:8 twist rate. I as seeking some guidance on what deer round I should test first. Must admit that the fierce was not my first choice, but being a lefty, the choices and availability are pretty few. Thanks in advance.

Accessories (price drop!)16 in Noveske Recon SS barrel w/gas block/headspaced bolt, 50 rnds on it $275

50 rounds down the pipe, moving in a different direction with this build. Barrel performance was impressive. At 100 yards I got 1.25 inch 5-shot groups with IMI 77g and 1.5 inch 5-shot groups with AAC 77g OTM. Shot with a bipod and bag. My shooting is average.

You get 16 inch Noveske Recon stainless steel barrel with headspaced bolt, gas block, gas tube. Gas block pinned/reamed to 1/8th inch to accommodate coil pin for easier assembly/disassembly. The factory included dowel pin is retardedly tight/hard to drive in. If a 1/8th inch coil pin is good enough for Geissele its good enough for me.

There are some scuffs on the barrel where I removed the gas block/its an extremely tight fit and the hole drilled for pinning naturally makes an edge that will scuff the barrel during install/removal of the gas block. This will not effect the performance whatsoever. The headspacing on this bolt/barrel is very tight. It barely chambers my "go" gauge. It will have a long life and lots of consistency.

Barrel is $500 before shipping from Midway. I feel like $275 is plenty fair for a virtually new barrel/bolt with some scuffs on it. Buyer pays shipping from Chattanooga, TN

Thanks for lookin!

Browning X-Bolt Pro Tungsten Barrel Receiver Connection

Hi all. I have been fighting this X-Bolt Pro Tungsten and am getting groups on par with my lever gun with peep sights. I have checked all torques, switched scopes, shot with the Hawg and the radial brake and the gun just isn't behaving properly. I have checked receiver bolts for spec (tightened front first) taken the scope rings off and reinstalled. Often the first couple of shots are OK, but subsequent shots are all over the place. The POI shifts between range sessions (at range sessions I am also shooting a Tikka and a Lupo under identical rest/bag conditions and am 1 moa or better). Browning has mentioned that I could mail it in, but before I do I could switch rings to medium/shoot with no brake/try different ammo brands (using 143 gr precision hunter - hate to buy more ammo when I have literally sent 100's of dollars down range on this gun).

I was inspecting the gun and noticed that where the barrel meets the receiver isn't perfectly aligned. You will see a stock photo that shows perfect alignment where the barrel meets the receiver, and a picture of my gun (where the MP stamp is visible)... My barrel seems to be out of alignment with the receiver by between 1/64" and 1/16".

Would this type of misalignment potentially cause inconsistent groups? TIA, if so, I may as well mail it in and quit trying to fix it.... just kind of bummed I have been fighting this thing and don't trust it enough to hunt with it.
