    Federal brass is shitty, object or concur?

    I’m on my last round of handloads on 308 fgmm. Don’t have notes handy but pretty sure 4th firing and pockets are loosening up. In the trash they go.

    Best red dot for AR platform

    I dropped an aimpoint onto concrete once, landed directly on the switch. Shrugged it off like nothing happened. Also left the same unit switched on for 4 years, pulled it out the case and it was still lit up. Works for me.

    Well when you get sustained gusts of 80-120mph for a few hours in one direction, and a few hours in the other, and your neighborhood looks like this the next morning, and then that 97°F 1200% RH kicks in by 8AM and you realize your central AC doesn’t quite work when your power grid is down for...

    Reloading 12.7x108mm

    Peek inside the case and see if its boxer primed, that would save you some grief out the gate.

    Don’t have mine handy but I’m pretty sure you can set corrections to actual click values for your scope rather than a solution in hard mils or moas.

    Touring my house under construction trying to figure out why its made out of mulch and why there are holes in my walls. I counted like half a dozen.
