    What's everyone's favorite muzzle brake?

    Area 419 hellfire. Very impressive and cool design for self timing. I also like the options he's adding for suppressors.

    Rebarrling Tikka Mag bolt face

    I just did a 7saum on a tikka wsm. With the new ARC mags, you could run those and not even need a wsm/saum aics mag. Should be able to get the same speeds as a 7mag.

    Hunting & Fishing summer coyote hunting

    In the states listed, there is not a deer overpopulation issue and there are issues with fawn and cattle deaths due to coyotes. I'm with coldbore, its open season. I don't typically get out during the summer as its over 100 here until about october, but I have dropped 3 in the last two weeks at...

    223 Magazines for the post 2014 AICS AX chassis

    There's always a degree of wobble with those plastic mags. I prefer the accurate mags.

    Tikka T3x TAC A1 First Impressions

    I wasn't a huge fan of that trigger after handling it yesterday. I wished it was just the trg trigger. I'm not a fan of that thin blade trigger. The chassis is not the prettiest, but it seemed like it had everything ​you need. Like any other Tikka though, I'm sure once you get the trigger down...

    223 AI long range build

    I wouldn't change up the whole build to revolve around overly long loaded 90gr loads. The advantage over the 80gr is not enough in my opinion, to go to an HS stock and a potentially unreliable mag system. Run the numbers and make your choice I guess. I think your Mcree shooting 80s loaded at...

    Alpha mags still GTG?

    I ordered a couple months back. Same situation. I freaked out a little but they came after about 3-4 weeks. I don't think the status is accurate.

    223 Hornady 75gr ELD Match: better than 175 SMK 308?!

    Right. And there is also a difference between 77s and 75s that are short and designed for the ar platforms, vs the very long 75 amax and elds. I had a 9 twist CZ that could shoot the 75 bthps, but it would not shoot the 75 amax for instance. I run an 8 twist for the 75 amax and eld for...

    223 Hornady 75gr ELD Match: better than 175 SMK 308?!

    Feeding? Whats the setup like? I've never had any feeding issues on a 700 or T3 with a 223AI and using AICS magazines (AI brand and Accurate). Is the throat too short to load around 2.500"?

    Suppressors Area 419 or ASR for Omega lite barrel setup?

    Yes I'd run 1/2 and then use an adapter to 5/8. The entire omega is significantly lighter this way and shorter.

    bartlein 223 barrel

    I had an 8tw Muller when he first started and ran 80gr amaxs out of it. It shot tiny little groups and did well out to 1k. 7.5tw would be just fine as well.

    223 Hornady 75gr ELD Match: better than 175 SMK 308?!

    Same here. 21" suppressed Ackley version with 25.8gr of varget at the same speed you're getting. Shoots wonderfully. Previously shot the 80gr amax on a 22" barrel at 2900fps for club matches before they allowed smaller than 6mm at bigger matches. It's cheap and there's no recoil. With the...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Heckler & Koch Hack! - Check out the letter that HK dealers just received! - UPDATED 5/8

    Reminds me of our local Cabelas and Bass Pro when a guy walked in with a Bowtech shirt on, said he was their rep and that all the bows were recalled and he needed to take them with him. Not as elaborate, but he got them all. Was there any request to transfer the firearms somewhere? Crazy stuff.

    PVA creedmoor and copper creek loads...help!

    Suppressed? Rainy? Perhaps the 143 x and not 140 m? Seating depth? Of four creeds, I've never had 140s show pressure signs till 42.5 or higher. I could see the 143 eld having pressure signs around 41. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

    Rifle Scopes Steiner owners - thinking about a Steiner T5Xi . . . .

    Really. Great scope. Paid a little more than people pay for a pst when people were just dumping them as fast as they could. I had heard the turret fix was coming so I bought one for pennies and literally the next day they announced the fix. Great lightweight compact scope. Sits on a 223ai...

    Accurate-mag modification

    Pull it apart, you'll see. It's just a sleeve and it's actually only the very top that needs filed, the main body of the plastic spacer already allows 2.50ish. buy a rat tail file and work on the small lip at the top while it's disassembled, then reassemble and you're done. It's the easier mag...

    7mm WSM or 7mm SAUM

    Yeah the Norma is great and pretty easily available. Just bought a couple hundred. I'd go with the saum for the overall length vs the wsm. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

    Alpha Mags order fulfillment

    A couple weeks back on scout we had a thread about Alpha mags. Just giving my results now. I ordered a wsm mag back on 12/31/16 and it arrived 2/15/17, right at 6 weeks. Mag fits tight and feeds perfect.
