    223 ackley improved Redding dies

    I had the same problem with my redding ackley dies. My solution was to thin the shell holder on a diamond stone until i got bump back of the shoulder. When I chambered that barrel I use JGS reamer and ackley go gage and a 223 go gage as the no go so I am at the tighter end of head space. The...

    Accuracy International 223 conversion working

    I would say $1200 for just action conversion parts it would have to run better than in your video of the barricade.

    Accuracy International 223 conversion working

    Two questions I have are does it feed better or worse with the 80gr ish loads and second is the cost of the conversion. I think the cost would play into the expectations of the user. IF it cost $150 plus the barrel then a little feeding issues may be acceptable if the kit comes in at like $500...

    Hunting & Fishing HD Coolers

    I like my pelican 45qt and 95qt they work well keeping food cool and are built well. Before I had the pelican I used an Igloo ultra marine 35QT that I added a gasket, latches and filled the lid with Great Stuff low expansion foam. With those mods it worked much better and was about $50 with the...

    Rifle Scopes nightforce - worth the extra money vs others?

    I had the bushnell and have a few NF F1's and SFP nxs the F1 are great scopes. I bought one of the bushnell 3.5-21 when they had that money back deal going on I didn't think the glass was very good, the locking knobs were annoying and it didn't track well so i sent it back for a refund. I got...

    Target Idea / Anyone Do This Yet?

    I made a target ipsc target like that that held a steel plate the size of the "a" zone behind the cardboard ipsc target. It worked well and saved time taping the target. the splatter from the plate would cut up the cardboard some but I would use heavier cardboard and it would last a long time.
