    Gunsmithing 1/2-28 threads 7rm

    I have gotten a tikka lite in 7mm Remington magnum. I want to thread it for my 30 cal suppresor but the barrel diamiter is too small for 5/8-24. The muzzle is .604 at the end. I would rather not have to thread it 9/16 and adapt to 5/8 as its not what is more common. Would 1/2-28 adapted to...

    300 blackout loading

    My new 300 blk upper is having an incredibly difficult time getting less than 2moa at 100 yards. It's a 16in Douglas air gauge from compas lake who also chambered it 1 in 8 twist. I'm using converted lake city brass. I have tried both annealed and unannealed cases and all cases have been primer...

    Rifle Scopes 300 blackout scope, Horus?

    I'm assembling a 300 blackout for a fun gun to go along with my suppressor and have been looking for a suitable scope for it. I have it somewhat narrowed down but just came across the Horus Hawk with the h425 reticle. After doing some searching here it appears that Horus has a bad rep for...

    Gunsmithing Barrel recontouring or just sell.

    I have a rifle with a kreiger barrel chambered in 300wsm. The rifle shoots fantastic but with the 28in heavy varmint barrel@ .930 at the muzzle the rifle weighs 16.6lbs before adding ammo. I would like to drop a few pounds of the gun and am wondering how great a risk I would take in having a...

    What bottom metal for a 300wsm on a long action

    I am getting a new to me 700 long action chambered in 300wsm. I would like to upgrade to a dbm such as the cdi or badger offerings. But I am not sure what model to get, the 300 win mag version or the 338 lapua. I know that the lips on either will have to be modded as well as a spacer and modded...

    I am looking for a better scope for my 22. I want to use the rifle for all purpose so I have to have a parallax that goes below 50yards.

    Hard to chamber 7.62x51

    I ordered some match 308 ammo from southwest ammo awhile back and it took a bit longer than expected to get it shipped. To make up for this error they included a box of 147gr fmj NATO. While checking it out I attempted to chamber a round of the NATO stuff and found that the bolt was fairly...

    Suppressors Suppresser vs Ear Plugs

    Is a good quality suppressor equal to using earplugs? Most better cans have about 30 db of sound reduction. Most earplugs are rated at around 30db of noise reduction. By this it would seem that a decent can should be as comfortable to shoot as wearing earplugs. I don't have much experience...
