    Here’s one problem our Space Force will need to figure out. I’m sure there are a few more.

    Suppressors Hunting w/Suppressor in New Mexico

    Should be in the NM hunting regulations. http://www.wildlife.state.nm.us/hunting/ Beter to read for yourself vs. taking advice from strangers that may land you in jail. If you can’t find an answer above, call the conservation officer and ask.

    Suppressors TBAC Ultra 9 vs. 7, 6.5mm or 30cal?

    I’m glad I got the Ultra 9 .30 cal. I would like to get a 7mm-300 and won’t need another suppressor. I also went back and forth between the Ultra 7 and 9. I’ve heard the 7 and it is also impressive on a 6.5. Just not as quiet as mine.

    6.5x47 Lapua

    What load are you running with both rounds? My COAL is longer with the Bergers vs the RDF. I’m having good luck with the RDF 0.025 off the lands at 2.760”. The 140 Hybrids were set 0.020 from the lands with a COAL of 2.860.

    Another vote for white target with orange center. Worked really well out in the Southwest Desert.

    Best place to have a remage barrel cut down and threaded?

    When you say good, I assume you mean cheap as well. I used this guy twice. He threaded to TBAC specs and was quick as well. https://class3machining.com

    Jewell Triggers = Awesome Service

    Sent in my Jewell Trigger for repair after dropping it in a barreled action. The weight broke the trigger in half. Called up Jewell and asked for the repair and also requested for a safety to be added. $46 and one week later I had the trigger back in my hands. Quick service at a great price...

    Socialism at its best. I don’t know or care who pays for it, but I deserve it because I am an entitled POS.

    How do you get your new toys into the house without pissing her off?

    Her: Is that really necessary? Me: Yes. Her: You have spent enough money on this hobby. Me: You’re right. I won’t buy another (fill in the blank). I told her this after my second US Optics scope, AMP Annealing Machine and CO-AX press. As long as I buy one big item every year, I usually don’t...

    Change in zero

    If you zero at 100 yds, then the environmentals have pretty much been removed from the equation. Doesn’t matter if you zero at 3700 feet and then take the same rifle to 600 feet.

    Help me step up my reloading game

    Look at upgrading your dies. I bought a dedicated expander mandrel, but only used it a couple of times before I moved on. The Forster and Redding dies are great. I’ve had better success with the Redding FL Type S bushing and Redding seating dies.

    Gunsmithing Gain twist 308

    I’ve been reading about gain twist and watched some YouTube videos in the last couple of hours. The way I understand it, it looks like a gain twist will have less pressure due to the slow rifling (able to move the bullet into the barrel faster). In theory this should increase barrel life...

    Gunsmithing Gain twist 308

    I should read more carefully. Bartlein will make a gain twist. I’d call and get straight from the horse.
