    Muzzle Brakes poor form at the range?

    I'm running 63.5 gr RL22 for the first 50 rounds, 32 rounds down the barrel so far. That load is sub 0.5" at 100 yards. New Remarms in KRG Bravo around 10 lbs. That'll be my LR elk rifle. I've taken it out to 800 yards steel. Now that elk season is over I'll try it on LR coyotes. So far seems...

    Muzzle Brakes poor form at the range?

    What load are you running with your rifle? How much does your set up weigh? My 7mm RM is on the heavy side, 700 ADL in a KRG. I'm shooting a 180 gr ELDM at 2800 fps until the barrel breaks in.

    Well I did it for a living in the Army and trained LE after that. I saw one of your videos shooting a stage. You best stay a keyboard warrior.

    Muzzle Brakes poor form at the range?

    Well first off all the people thinking that pistol competitions are "tactical" or real life. Not much of either in them. And that's coming from having won the Western Regional Championships IDPA. At least IDPA has some realism. Like shooting on the move and use of cover/ concealment. The others...

    Muzzle Brakes poor form at the range?

    I guess my point is does the equipment help make you better? Or are you just being a poser. It's fine if people want to have all the gadgets. That's their business and what they do on their time is their business. But the range is for everyone, so when you waste time down range that's my time...

    Muzzle Brakes poor form at the range?

    That's part of the problem when you get to my age. Things that were common etiquette while I was growing up are no longer common or fashionable. Which irks me to no end. I have issue with some High Power shooter also. They come to the range with their jackets, spotting scopes, shooting mats...

    Muzzle Brakes poor form at the range?

    Well there are a lot of Karens out there. And I admit I'm not that tolerant of people anymore. Last week a guy came up to me while I was scanning the range for rats to shoot and said to me " did you find all of them?". He and his girlfriend were shooting High Power positions at 100 yards on the...

    Muzzle Brakes poor form at the range?

    I'd say you were fine. I wear plugs and muffs at the range and I suggest that to everyone. The only time I got pissed at someone with a muzzle brake were when some tools purposely sat next to an elderly couple with a 50 cal. The gentleman was working on his rifle with his back turned to them and...

    Remington 9 1/2 LR Primer Trouble for 22-250

    Thanks for clarifying. I'm finding that as I get older I'm getting grumpier. I'm almost to the "Gran Torino" stage lol.

    Remington 9 1/2 LR Primer Trouble for 22-250

    I've had to ream pockets for all the different brands of primers. So to each his own. Primer pocket uniformers are cheap compared to a brick of primers. But whatever you all want to do. I'm just relating what works for me.

    Remington 9 1/2 LR Primer Trouble for 22-250

    My contention is that it's not the primer, it the brass. But it's your choice. Primer pocket uniformers were originally developed for benchrest competitors. Their belief was using a primer pocket uniformer aided in more consistent ignition. As far as switching to a different brand of primers...

    Remington 9 1/2 LR Primer Trouble for 22-250

    When I have tight primer pockets I use a primer pocket uniformer, which is essentially a depth reamer. After that it's not an issue. I've been using Rem 9 1/2's for the last few years with no issue. Most of the time it seems like the bottom of the primer pocket is tapered and tight.

    Chuck Mawhinney passed away today.

    I haven't read this book since the 90's. I think it was what started Chuck's spotlight in the public's eye. " Dear Mom: A Sniper's Vietnam "

    Chuck Mawhinney passed away today.

    Fair winds and following seas. Prayers for his family and friends. I don't live that far from him. I wish I could of met him, but I understand he was a unassuming private person.
