    6mmAR/243LBC performance

    FCS, do you know what powders your buddy is using, and the throat specs for the reamer? The 6mmar.com was one of the ones that had data mostly for 26" barrels.

    6mmAR/243LBC performance

    I'd be ecstatic with 2750-2800, I was told 2600 in BHW's board. At that point I'd probably prefer to go with a longer barrel and extended gas system, but I doubt my partner would go for that.

    6mmAR/243LBC performance

    Most of the data I'm finding is for long barrels, around 26". Anybody know what velocity is typical for a 105 hybrid in a 20" barrel? How about an 18" barrel?

    Designated Marksman Match in South Carolina Oct 4th

    A couple of pics from the match, it was a great time. My partner and I were killing it, we thought we had first in the bag easily before earning a DQ at the last stage. Great stages though, I particularly liked the one where we shot simultaneously. I ended up taking a couple of his handgun...

    Gunsmithing Because who doesn't like a GoPro lathe video?

    Maybe a dumb question, but does the AR Warner tool hold the insert at the same angle as one designed for carbide? I was looking at getting one but don't want to limit my carbide options.

    Rifle...what to do next??

    Get a Harris BRMS (6-9 heigh, swivel, leg notches) and ammo. You have a good base, just shoot it.

    Gunsmithing Because who doesn't like a GoPro lathe video?

    Thanks, I may take you up on that. Im currently using a Sandvik CNMG 432 insert in 1025 grade, in an Iscar holder if I remember correctly, but I want to try some other coatings to see if I can improve the finish on barrel steel. Ill be trying the one you posted about the other day too, Jon. I...

    Accurate ordnance rifles?

    Lost my alternator in Alabama, and Mark wouldn't let me leave until it was fixed. I had to argue with him to keep him from pulling Jason off the lathe to do the work for me. They gave me full access to their tools and a place out of the rain to work. You won't find better guys.

    Gunsmithing Because who doesn't like a GoPro lathe video?

    Looks good to me. Question, since I'm researching it now. What inserts are you using in the profiling tool, and what does the finish look like?

    Why I will never respond to a WTB ad again

    My average is pretty good. I've posted one that I remember and scored 900 162 Amaxes. I've responded to one and got a good price for a fairly hard to find rifle. Traffic isn't as high in that forum though.

    TSA notice given to me about a Civil Penalty

    I got caught in Milwaukee with 19 9mm Gold Dots in my laptop bag where I'd unloaded an XDM mag before a competition. I didn't get a fine, but was warned about the $1500 fine. I explained I shoot competitively and what happened, and both the TSA and deputies were as accommodating as they could...

    Rifle Scopes SWFA 12x42 or 16x42 for .223 varminter?

    I've run multiple 10x, 12x, and 16x SS's and currently own the first two. The 12x works best in my opinion.
