    Brass Catcher

    3Bucc is what I usually go with.

    AR Lube?

    Jet Lube MP-50 applied *thin*.
  3. BurnOut

    Good news and not so good.

    The .223 ammo that has for me been the most consistently accurate across multiple guns is Fiocchi 50 gr Vmax. If you can find/afford some, it has always been a great round for my friends and me.

    LRI Direct Replacement Tikka bolts.

    This is absolutely awesome! Now if only there was a source for the bare actions...

    Drilling through back of safe

    Drilling into a post-tension slab is no big deal at all. Anchor it to the floor with some 1/2" Tapcons and call it good.

    Suppressors Stuck Thunder Beast

    FWIW, in my non-expert experience, high temp, high strength Loctite holding the brake to the barrel, along with a light coat of copper anti-seize on the CB threads is the ticket. As for the method of tightening the can to the mount, I use a "wrist snap" technique... Basically get it finger...

    Hiding a Safe in an exposed room

    Your safe guys should lay down a "road" of plywood or aluminum plates (or something similar that spreads the load) while rolling the safe into place. When setting it, they should put some felt pads on the bottom of the safe to keep the steel off the floor. The horse mat is a good option, even if...

    JP Enterprises Captured Spring System

    That depends... has the grocery store been looted? Anyhow, I have a gen 1 JP SCS in an 18"/mid-length gas RRA varmint gun chambered in 5.56 that also has an adjustable gas block. I'm fortunate that I was able to find a gas block setting that works both suppressed and unsuppressed (SiCo Omega)...

    Varmint round-competitions

    I like the .204 Ruger with either the Hornady 40gr Vmax or the 39gr Sierra.

    MDRX

    NOTHING is as hard on brass as an HK-91.

    CLR and barrel etching, finish damage - photos, links

    It doesn't work as fast as CLR, but KG1 does a hell of a job eating carbon and doesn't damage finishes. I have had success soaking difficult carbon spots with it, too, in a similar manner to what the OP described. In regard to copper eaters, KG12 does a bang-up job.

    MDRX

    While not an MDRX, I have a 2019 production MDR in .308 and have been pretty pleased with it in my limited use*. It has the updated gas plug and wide extractor on it, and save for a few FTFs and FTEs very early on it has run very well the last few times I have had it out. It IS somewhat hard on...

    Some of you suggested looking at .300BO vs 5.56

    I think that the people who claim that 300 BLK is dying are those who try to use it for something other than its intended purpose. Subs were never intended for anything other than more-or-less MP5 replacement... and those limitations are going to occur with ANY subsonic round. With supers, it's...

    Rifle bolt coating options

    Kind of related; since we're talking coatings, does anyone know what Cryptic Coatings' Mystic Black is?

    The Remington made Mosin Nagant rifles

    Yeah, I'd have picked it up, too, with that kind of pricing, just for the novelty of it. It's a good conversation starter, if nothing else.

    300 blk out bolt guns

    Stock came from Boyd's with bottom "metal" (plastic) that uses the factory magazine.

    300 blk out bolt guns

    Same, but mine's in a Boyd's Prairie Hunter stock. Solid little gun.

    Is it safe to shoot 7.62 M80 ball out of my R700 AAC SD .308?

    There is PLENTY of safety margin to play around in with this particular situation... Of course, there's always the (pretty remote, really) possibility of an out of spec/hot round, but you've got that possibility with ANY ammo. Like another poster said, don't overthink it; go shoot. It'll be...

    DFW area gunsmith needed for barrel threading

    ^^This^^ Morgan has done a number of barrels for me, and I've been pleased with the work every time. As for the suggestion of S and S, that shop changed hands a few years back, and the only people I know that have worked with them since then have not had particularly good experiences; lead...

    Mosin Nagant

    Ditto this ditto. The K31 is a no-shit nice rifle with a unique action that can put up some genuinely respectable groups with the right ammo. By comparison, most Mosin Nagants are examples of war time all-hands-on-deck production, which means that quantity was the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd priorities...
