Firearms WTS: Kimber KDSC9 Rail with Accessories, and Mags (8) total (2-18's)(6-15's)

I have a nearly new KDSC9 Rail that has the Sniper Grey Lower, with Black Top end. Less than 100-rounds though it. I just can't get rid of the “glock grip” angle while shooting, and figure I will let the 1911 grip angle go to someone that really likes it. That and I have some med bills to pay for a knee surgery, so I will be out of action for a bit. Here is what I have that I would like sell as a package, and what I paid for it. I am asking $1900, shipped, you cover insurance. FFL to FFL. May part out the the EPS, and Olight if the pistol sells first

(1) KDSC9 Rail (Grey Black Night Sights) (2-15-round Mags) $1,699.99
(1) Kimber Optics plate for Holosun $100
(2) 18-Round Extended Magazines $65.00 each
(4) 15-round Mags $40.00 Each
(1) Holosun EPS Carry GR-MRS (Green Dot or Circle Dot) $400.00


Total Paid: $2,719 Asking $1900


Shoot me a PM with any questions or additional photo requests. For feedback or references Sasquatch98226 is my screen name on AR15.com, among other forums. Sasquatch981 is for E-bay and Brian Enos forums as they came first hence the different Screen name. Check me out

IDTS Dry Fire Questions

From what I can tell the IDTS system allows you to focus close and get multiple targets (different sizes & distances) on their screen. I like that the target size (in moa) is known. I assume that the system does not tell you if you hit or miss and you have to rely on your ability to call your shot for that. Is this correct?

At under $200 it seems like a good tool for PRS training. Is it?

Accessories Marathon 46mm CSAR® Type II - Diver's Automatic - $2,900

Up for sale is my Marathon 46mm CSAR®Type II - Diver's Automatic. I bought this in June/2024 and although it has seen some use, it was not a daily wearer for me. There are some signs of wear (minor) on the buckle of the rubber strap, but that’s about it. Rugged, and dependable it is a serious watch for serious operators. A big chunk of steel that wears like a much smaller watch, fashionable in the field or at the Golf Club. It can be worn both casual and dressed.

Includes Stainless Steel Bracelet (never installed), 3-PieceRubber Strap Kit with brushed steel hardware (installed) and Nylon Defstan Strap (never installed). As an added bonus, it also includes a Marathon logoed LeathermanFree®T2 Multi-tool and a Marathon logoed Black Canvas Watch Roll. All original boxes, paperwork, etc. included. This complete package at retail would be over $5,300

Not looking for trades, and I will cover shipping/insurance in CONUS. $2,900 firm, PPFF or Zelle preferred but other payment arrangements can be discussed. Feel free to ask any questions! Thanks!

338 Norma Loads
10/20/2014 Last edited 10/21/2014 by midgetorama

I am shooting a 9.5 twist Bartlein that finishes at 26".

With a 300 grain SMK I am getting slight ejector marks with 85.0 grains of IMR 7828 SSC and a CCI250 with Norma brass. Velocity is only 2715 fps.

The best accuracy with this bullet, powder, primer combo is 82.5 grains at 2632 fps. Single digit ES.

I am seating the bullet with a 0.025" jump.

I was expecting better velocity. I may try Retumbo eventually.

Any one try US869. 1smalljohnson told me to give it a try. I've just started messing with it. The highest I went was 99 grains and if I remember correctly I was in the mid 2700s. This was with a Berger 300 out of a 26" barrel. I'll post more after this weekend hopefully.

I have a good buddy that is using us869 in his 300rum pushing 230s. Ive thought about it, but what he is running into is a lot of carbon buildup, carbon ring.

If a guy is looking for a powder, definitely give rl33 a shot. Ive ran some of it and it gives excellent velocities.

Here is some info on rl33.
97.7grns rl33
300grn berger otm.
215mag
2863fps 26" barrel
3.725" coal - single load.
Es 14.22
Sd 7.00
This gave me a 0.103" center to center group at 100yds.

I did a quick velocity check prior to loading for groups.
1. 95.0grn-2738fps
2. 96.0grn-2788
3. 97.0grn-2732 - velocity dip.
4. 98.0grn-2861
5. 99.0grn-2899 - hard bolt lift

I shot these 5 rounds at 300yds and the resulting group was 2".

It'll fit...

I know it seems like a lot, but the density of the RL33 is higher then say H1000 where you'd have a hell of a time with 90grns.

How did you manage to fit that much powder in the case with that longgggg 300gr Berger?​
It'll fit...

I know it seems like a lot, but the density of the RL33 is higher then say H1000 where you'd have a hell of a time with 90grns.

Looks like I'm going to have to give the reloader 33 a shot in my .338 Warthog... (.338 NMAI). I'm currently running 93gr of Retumbo with Berger 300gr OTM's @ 2893fps out of a 28" Bartlein 1:9.3

Definitely worth the try. You'll see how dense the 33 is.

I've got some data for you on the US869.
90.0 - 101.3grns US869
300grn bullet
@100.0grns = 2710fps

Now this is not my data so start low and work up. Same as usual.

89.0 gr of H-1000 with 300gr Berger OTM

3.602 Cartridge Length ... I'm a couple thousandths off the lands.

Averaging close to 2800 fps from 27" bbl.

5-shot groups were 1.125 @ 200 yards.

I managed one 3-shot group at 200y for 0.625" NOT sure I could reproduce it.



I'd strongly recommend Berger boolits across the board. My 6.5 CM loves them too. Super high ballistic coefficient on both calibers.



My Retumbo tests for 338NM were averaging 2715 fps.

Close to 2900 fps from a 338 Norma out of a 26" barrel?

How is brass life?

I`m building a 338 Norma with a 30" Pacnor 1-9 twist barrel and hoping for 2850 fps with good brass life.

brass life seems to be good. I'm not running a lot of the rl33. my main load is h1000 which i have previously listed on this page. but with RL33 a guy can get up there in velocity. Just giving the guys some insight. My numbers will vary from others.

Settled on 89gr of H1000 pushing a 300gr Berger. Shot it on a ridiculously hot day...occasional ejector swipe, primers look good, no sticky bolt. At 1071 yards it hits steel with authority.

15k off the lands
AVG 2809FPS, SD of 4.3, ES of 9

Also will note that for my barrel the POI is the same for both 88gr and 89gr of H1000.

Night Vision IRAY BOLT TX60C 1024x1024 60mm with LRF REDUCED

BOLT TX60C Thermal Weapon Sight 1024x1024 60mm​

Purchased new from Outdoor Legacy in July 2024. Includes the ILR-1200 rangefinder and an Arken scope level. The scope will ship with the factory quick-release mount and the full kit as new.

If you have not used one of these, the image clarity and features are incredible, by far the best stand-alone thermal I have owned. I've only used the scope at longer ranges, and the LRF and internal ballistics are very accurate and capable.

If you have any questions or would like to see some extended-range (450-600 yard) kill shots, PM me, and I'll be happy to provide you with any information.

$4,650 shipped

Possible trades:
  • Tangent Theta JTAC ret glass
  • ZCO MPCT1X ret Glass
  • Impact Precision Action + Cash (new or very low round count)
  • NOX 35
  • Iray RH25V2

Savage mark 2 build

Hey guys,

I've got a savage mk 2 that I've decided to turn into a rimfire precision competition gun - I can shoot 1" groups at 100yd with CCI standard velocity out of it.


Currently it sits in an oryx chassis with a Diamondback tactical 6-24, riding an Oryx mlok bipod.



Here's what I DON'T currently like about this setup:

-Balance is terrible
-Scope won't focus at max zoom beyond 100yd (100y is even a bit borderline)
-Bipod is terrible



Here is what I am planning to change in the next month or so:

-Full length ARCA rail
-CKYE Pod
-Stick on Wheel weights jammed into forend
-40MOA Rail
-Mlok side panels+Weights (if required)


I'm not sure exactly what to do about the scope - I may just leave it for now and see what happens later.


What do you guys think? I'll post a photo when I get home from work.






Thanks,

CHOMPS
