I tried using IMR 4064 all the way up and down the powder recommendations using a hornady 95 grain SST bullet. I could not not get it to group at all. The best was in the 2 to 3 inch group at 100 yards. I can grab this rifle a weatherby 243 and a cheap box of hornday whitetail 100 grain soft...

Took 360 days exactly. I just paid for and added an exact match of two more suppressors to my trust and got everything sent off on January 11th, 2019. I wanted both my kids to have an identical set - no fighting. SO maybe 359 days this time!!!!

I recently got a new rifle a range certified (the old MOA) Weatherby Vanguard Series 2 in 257 Weatherby Magnum. Actually my best friend and hunting buddy of 20 plus years and I bought one each with consecutive serial numbers. Kinda cool how that worked out its his pre retirement gift for when he...

338 days of lost money and still nothing over at the FBI in a pile for background check as of today. Hunting season opens Saturday guess I wont get rid of the ringing in my ears!!!!

I called Friday. They said my application is currently at the FBI awaiting a background check and there is a back log.

SO its October 21 and still no word. They received everything Dec 5, 2017.

SO I fronted my hard earned cash in November of 2017 for a Gemtec GM-22 suppressor and a Gemtech "The One" suppressor. I got my trust established and all paperwork submitted properly. The gunshop, I bought them from is owned by a law firm that handles the trusts and all the paperwork. SO after...

I have an RCBS universal hand priming tool. The one with the square tray. It works great for priming large primers and magnum primers. It is a nightmare however for priming small primers. I know how to switch them out and have even had replacement parts sent to me but it is still impossible to...

I cant decide if I should go with a Wilson .458 Socom upper or a .450 Bushmaster (Bushmaster) upper to go with my last completed lower AR-15. I am wanting to go with a big bore for the last one. I have three in 5.56, one in 300 Blackout, one AR-10 308. I am wanting to hunt with it and have some...

Have you ever bought a really expensive gun and were like why did I buy that!!!! I bought an AR-10 (Daniels Defense Ambush 308) and it has no real world application. But I just had to have it because Hillary was gonna take away my right to buy one some day lol. I already own a 300 win mag, a...

Anyone use the hornady sonic cleaner for brass?? I have been using just a Lyman tumbler with walnut two different times during my reloading process. I am thinking of using the sonic cleaner first after de-priming to clean primer pockets and save sizing die from excess grit and grime. Then...

I guess where I got thrown for a loop is in the Hornady Reloading manual 9th edition under reloading step by step it list case trimming before chamfering and deburring then lubrication and resizing. I realize the advice of resize then trim makes better sense.

Novice reloader here with some questions. Ok I trimmed about a 100 new hornady 300 win mag brass too 2.610. Books says max COL is 2.620 and should be trimmed to 2.610. After chamfering and resizing they measure 2.614 to 2.615. All 100 empty cases measure in this ball park Then I trimmed...

I received my gun back on November 21st. It was at Legendary Arms works for over three months. I called the CEO a week prior to receiving it for an update on its status as in an earlier conversation I was told if I didnt hear anything in a week or so to call back. I was told someone had...

Sako wasn't sure that a one inch scope would work perfectly. They suggested high rings and a one inch scope. Then move the scope to where it would eject if possible and disregard eye relief just put the scope where it will eject. This is not a viable fix. The problem is when Berretta bought the...
