    Destroyed Jewel triggers

    I've broken 2 triggers (in exactly the same way) in two shots fired from this rifle. Any idea what could be causing that? I'm afraid to put in a third, might break it as well

    The Venerable 308 vs "New gen" ubiquitous 6.5 Creedmoor LR - ELR Shootout

    I think the reason you don't see creeds holding records at f class 1000 is that 308 and 223 have their own division in FTR, but if you're going to shoot F-O there are much better projectile options than a 264 / 6.5

    .223 AI Donuts

    The cause is just normal forward brass flow over time as the cases are fired. I also have donuts on 223 Rem brass, I used the Wilson reamer to cut out a surprising amount of material from inside the base of the neck. It can really be seen with a borescope. I also use a mandrel but it was not...

    The rules used to be that you don't come into other people's sale threads and shit on what they are selling. I like Game Kings also but never had any failures from the Blitzs.
