    irritating when they change profiles on the same bullet

    If there was change to bullet mold, I would think call/email to MBC customer service would produce faster and more accurate answer than polling the gun forum. I mean, what if they are shooting 1911s/P220s? They may not notice any feeding issues ... Right? ;)

    Hodgdon Powder acquires RCBS from Vista Outdoor

    I saw a sign at a gun store that said, "In God we trust. Everyone else pay cash!" 😆

    Lee Pro 6000 unboxing and testing for OAL consistency

    Yes, I agree. That's been the finding from the myth busting "Neck tension and bullet setback" thread - https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/myth-busting-neck-tension-and-bullet-setback.830072/page-4 I did sort cases by headstamp for the OAL variance test as different case wall...

    9mm AR - soot on my shoulder?

    Is it clean burning in blowback action PCCs, say compared to W231/HP-38 it seemed to anticipated to replace?

    = $95 = Viridian Serac 6-24x50 (30mm tube) - Natchez Tax Refund Sale

    Could you tell how close to the center of vertical/elevation turret adjustment the crosshair zero is at 100 yards? (Number on the turret?) And what velocity ammo were you shooting? (SV or HV) Definitely with 30 MOA rail over 20 MOA. Thanks for the update. It's been raining here for the past...

    Are Colt barrels any good?

    I would prefer to qualify "good" AR barrel as "cold hammer forged" regardless of brand. FWIW, TFB review of 20" BCA cold hammer forged barrel produced 1 MOA to 1.5 MOA at 100 yard and 500 yard CONSISTENTLY -...

    Lee bullet feeder issue

    I did the opposite when I beta tested the bullet feeder die and pre-production rotary magazine. I adjusted the die with couple of bullets and later 5-10 bullets in the tube. (There were no instructions when I beta tested the bullet feeder die :)) -...

    Lee Pro 6000 unboxing and testing for OAL consistency

    But that was done "intentionally" to reflect "real world" reloading conditions most will use the press under. Initially, I did sort test cases by headstamp then resized case lengths by .750" only to go, "Silly me, when will I ever sort cases by resized length?" 😁 I do measure sample cases by...

    9mm AR - soot on my shoulder?

    Believe me, 3-gun match shooters have just about milked, poked and examined everything regarding enhancing reliability, accuracy and flat shooting aspects (To not move front sight for faster follow up shots) of PCC on forums like Brian Enos. Their combined work past 10-15 years has invaluably...

    FWIW, from original Serac thread (Note that email refers to old LRR reticle and not new VFD-2 reticle) - https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/viridian-serac-6-24x50mm-30mm-side-focus-sfp-long-range-reticle-for-150.900740/#post-12204778 From: [email protected] To: John Tue...

    9mm AR - soot on my shoulder?

    While I agree with you for 9mm in general, USPSA PCC division match shooters prefer faster burning powders - https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/9mm-target-load.927857/page-5#post-12846195 PCC (9mm) - Titegroup 31%, Sport Pistol 18%, N320 16%, Clean Shot 11% (Comparable to AA No. 2)

    9mm AR - soot on my shoulder?

    Unlike locked breech action of gas-operated AR, blowback action Pistol Caliber Carbine (Like blowback action 22LR) depends on bolt/buffer weight and recoil spring tension to hold pistol case mouth against chamber but as soon as bolt/buffer starts moving back, high pressure gas will leak all...

    New AR15 upper with issues

    Not acceptable for me, at any price point. Definite NO for $1600 upper. If possible, I would inspect the barrel and components before paying/leaving the store.
