This AI thing has evolved so quickly that this year and beyond I can trust any video or image anymore. Below are a couple today at X.com:

Wanting you guys to check my math here on what i want and get some other recommendations if im not already on the right track.

I just sold a Dasher target rifle i don't shoot much anymore and have been wanting to up my quality of hog hunting rifles i have for myself and family that go with me. We hunt thermal suppressed at night and have 2 308s. One DD and one Larue, both heavy. I want to try a 6.5 creed in the V Seven rifle, if they are half as good as ive read than I should be happy as our biggest complaint is weight once you get a suppressor and thermal hooked on to these guns.

I want to stick with a standard caliber so opting for the V Seven Creed in 18" barrel. The Creed will be plenty for hogs and will be a little less recoil than a 308 being that this gun is 6.25 lbs complete.

I have a Omega 30 at 14oz and a 36M and want to cut weight and length to compliment this already light rifle. I don't know if the 36M in the short config would be an option as i believe thats more for pistols.

SO... read a lot of good about the TBAC Ultra 5 but also that it was still fairly loud for not wearing plugs...vs a ultra 7. Is the 5 not enough can for the Creedmoor realistically... The 5 vs 7 are both around 8oz which is great compared to my Omegas.

The ultra 7 might be my best bet.

What would you guys go with on keeping first and foremost Weight down and then secondary length. And still be a sound suppression acceptable compared to what i already have with the omegas? Sidenote: im very happy with the omega, just want to conserve Weight if i can with something else.

Duplicate post, Sorry, first time here in a long time and I goofed... Didn't think it posted the first time...

Anyone using this? Thinking about it for the Hellcat Pro. Not much out for reviews or YouTube despite it being an older holster (looks like they started making them 2014ish)

Got a bit bored, so I drew up & printed a fiber optic upgrade for my Send-its. Am running NF 7-35 ATACRs mounted on Spurhs where the ocular rotates with the magnification.

Any thoughts for improvements? They work great on both my RM and CF rigs. (Please ignore the dust on my lense... Hand't cleaned it yet after the last match.)

would this germanium lens work?

18 MIL/61.8 MOA, Height 1.73"

I’m considering getting a KRG Bravo for a Howa 1500 barreled action, but have a question.

It looks like the Bravo is in two halves and that the trigger guard is connected to the front half and the action screw goes though that and the rear half is just held on by one screw, is that correct?

If so, could that be utilized as a removable butt stock in leu of a side folder? I’m thinking it could be stored detached and then simply screwed back on at the range with a pocket torque wrench. Am I off base?

How sturdy is it if it’s only held together with one screw?

Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5-25x56 with EBR-7C MOA reticle. Also included is Flat Line Ops Recon Level and Hawkins long range hybrid rings which are 25 MOA bias. They are the larger bolt size 8-40 for Defiance and custom actions but are for REM 700 SA spacing. Rings are the high version which puts the objective at the right height above the barrel. I chose to switch the rear bubble level cap out with the Hawkins replacement one, but it is also included if you prefer it. Everything is in great condition showing little to no signs of wear. Pretty much only taken to the range in a case. $800 TYD.

Knowing what I know, and seeing plenty of the typical Military safety training videos this wasn't a painless way to go out.

I'm working on testing methods and products and gathering data on bullet seating. I'll be posting some comprehensive data once I get to an appropriate point of collection, but I just got some interesting information that I though was worth sharing.

I bought an AMP Press a number of months ago and have been testing different neck lubes, different processes, annealing vs. not, etc. Tomorrow I'm heading out to BLM land to do some ~2k yard ELR with my 300, and some closer in stuff with my 6 BRA, which means tonight I'm doing a bunch of loading. For my 300, I tried two slightly different processes:

Process 1:
- Anneal
- Size
- Lube necks with moly (topic for another post, but I've found moly to be the best neck lube on annealed brass)
- Mandrel
- Trim
- Primer, charge, seat

Process 2:
- Anneal
- Size
- Lube necks with moly
- Mandrel
- Trim
- Lube a second time
- Primer, charge, seat

Below are the graphs from the AMP Press showing the difference. I did 16 on process 1 and 46 on process 2.

Process 1: Single neck lube before trim, primer, charge, etc.


Process 2: Neck lube before trim, then second neck lube before primer, charge, etc.

Notes:

- On process 1, some of the plots spike at the end because I needed to re-zero the press height
- You can see that the extra lube step on process 2 pretty dramatically brought in spread. It's about a 30lb spread on process 1 vs. a 16lb spread on process 2.
- I'll post the muzzle velocity results after I get back tomorrow.
- I'm expecting somewhat of an SD improvement from the set of process 1 vs process 2, as I've already documented a correlation between seating force SDs and muzzle velocity SDs in my Mandrel Musings thread.
- For my 6 BRA, the two different plots I've got show a stark difference - includes annealing vs. not for one firing. But there is also one other factor that plays a significant role that was unexpected. More on that later.

I usually just run 40-45gr 1680, or mid 30s of H110 under various 250gr bullets, or a couple grains more under 230gr FMJs for practice and plinking rounds in my thumper.

Sitting here watching the Republican convention and 45-47 kept popping up…and got the gears turning. Thinking about doing a 47gr load under a 230, and calling it The Trump, LoL. I think pressures will get too close to max with 47gr of any of the powders I normally use under anything bigger.

Anyone else have a pet load for 450BM that uses 47gr powder?

If so, what bullet and what powder?

I have a Brownells BRN4 416 upper for sale, would also be interested in trading for 175gr or 168gr .308 @ $0.85 PR.

Seems like this would work better than the traditional over the top scope mounts. Especially on lighter weight rigs / where you want less snags




Anyone doing this ?
Am I missing something ?

Looking for a used Bushnell legend tactical spotting scope with mil reticle. Somebody make me a good deal on one of these. Thanks!
