    Rifle Scopes New Primary Arms PLXC 1-8 FFP

    I’m looking forward to more info on the new RDB version. I really wish PA would ditch the chevron do a simple horseshoe dot with a simple BDC and tone down the ranging windage/hold marks. My perfect LPVO reticle would be Vortex JM1 BDC with a horse shoe like the NF FC-DMX

    Night Vision Sig ECHO CV25 LWIR 640x512 Thermal Clip-On

    I watched for 4MR review today. I’m not wild about the app being the only way to align the display.

    Suppressors Suppressor Mount

    I would go with the Rearden Atlas style mount. It should be just as repeatable as direct thread and also provide you with some protection for the muzzle/crown and the benefit of a brake or flash hider when not using the suppressor.

    Night Vision Sig ECHO CV25 LWIR 640x512 Thermal Clip-On

    I’m watching this thread and looking for reviews of this clip on. I’m torn between this and an RH25v2 for my first thermal. That YouTube review is concerning. Sig seems to have a lot on their plate right now with mil contracts and 320s blowing up. They’ve done. Good job with their optics up to...

    AR-10 Winchester Hunting Suppressor

    I really like my OCL Hydrogen S on my LMT MWS. You’ll likely have to tune the gas system but I think that’s worth it for the performance.

    Is my brass ruined?

    I’m pretty sure all new brass is annealed as part of the manufacturing process. Part of what you’re paying for with premium brass is the manufacturing consistency. It won’t hurt it of you safety re-anneal. AMP’s FAQ confirms this in with respect to annealing a piece twice by accident. You...

    Almost no neck tension on new brass?

    It sounds your sizing die is roughy the same neck OD as your new brass. That’s all I can think of to cause what you’re seeing. You didn’t mention a bushing size so I’m assuming this just a regular sizing die. The die has to reduce the neck diameter down in order for you set the ID you want with...

    SPR Optic

    Both my gas guns (223 and 308) have MK5 3.6-18’s. Plenty of magnification and good size/weight. Both of my scores are the illuminated TMR. If I were buying new today I’d get the PR2 reticle.

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

    Wow that’s wild and I’m glad he’s ok. I made labels put them on magnetic tape for my powder measures. Can’t be too careful when it can be awhile between reloading sessions. I just added some white metal tape so I can write the charge weight with a dry erase marker.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Good Trigger for a Glock 19 Gen 5

    For my G5 Glocks I put in a TTI Grandmaster kit and replaced the trigger/trigger bar with the Overwatch flat polymer trigger. The trigger itself is just a preference thing. The Taran connector and springs helped out quite a bit on their own.

    Suppressors Mp5/sp5/ap5 what silencer!?

    I have and R9 and Omega 9K. My preference is for short cans to keep the length down for good handling. I’ve decided to mostly use the Omega 9K on handguns and the R9 on my 9mm and 300blk SBRs. The R9 with trilug adapter works really nice on my AP5. If I were add another 9mm can it would be the...

    Rifle Scopes What is your favorite rifle scope?

    The illuminated TMR is underrated! I have them on my 3.6-18 MK5s on my 223 and 308 gas gun DMR style rifles. Simple and clean with a floating dot and bold and easy to see.

    Has your employment of a red dot made you more accurate?

    Pass on night sights for sure. If you do replace factory sights I would get a front with a fiber optic insert and a plain rear.

    Load testing questions

    I think there is merit in evaluating factory ammo. I usually do that with a new rifle or barrel to get a baseline or starting point too. There some value in knowing how a good factory loading performs in your rifle. I would suggest saving more than a few rounds or better yet buying a few boxes...

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    I finally got around to testing the quick change barrel on my ATX last weekend. I know this is nothing new to long time AI users but I was impressed with the ease and repeatability. 180 rds total down the 6mm CM barrel and only have 20 on the 308 barrel. Hornady Match 108g 6mm CM Federal...
