    Best "out of box" polymer 9mm.

    PX-4 in an F or G model . So far 3000+ rounds and not even one single issue EVER . Only semi auto I've ever owned that I can say that about including a Glock 17 . Rotating barrel mechanism soak up what little recoil a nine has , almost like shooting a 22 . Very accurate . I do like My brothers...

    Falcon scopes

    I have a 4-14 and am very pleased . Mil / Mil adjustment , FFP , side focus . IMO glass on mine is very good . I have used a friends mk 4 , and both myself and the owner thought it was almost equal with a just slight edge to the Lupy in clarity and a edge to the Falcon in brightness . So much...

    New Years Eve Rimfire Match

    Got to get out and shoot today , before the weather rolled in . Was oh so close to acing this one , but ' Choked in the Open Net ' on the last shot . No excuses , just yanked the last pull cause I thought I was gonna clean it . I scored it as a 40 with the one miss and no bonus . Used the wifes...

    Winter Loads ?

    I should have been a little more clear . I'm talking deviations of around .2 or so , not the load going away where it wouldn't be able to dispatch a yote or prairie poodle . In a standard therapy session at the range , after fouling and warming up , I'll bench around 10 target groups , then on...

    Winter Loads ?

    I have noticed over the last two winters that my pet / favorite load seems to suffer when the temp drops below 30 or so . I am using a fairly slow powder for my cartridge , Varget in 223 to be exact . Its know to be very temperature stable , and they advertise it as be so . I am running a fairly...

    High power rifle match.

    New Entry Got out to do a little shooting today . Not on the money today , was too busy shivering in the 35* temps with gusts up to 30mph and a wind chill of like 15 . Not ideal conditions , but a bad day at the range is still better than work . I need to come up with a cold weather load for...

    How accurate are dedicated 22 uppers?

    They can be quite accurate . I have a Tacsol LT upper that with the its favorite fodder , Fed 714/711b or CCI Standard Velocity , will put 10 cadenced rapid fired shots into ~ .7 at 50 . Not to shabby for a 22 autoloader . Have read glowing reviews about the new CMMGs , nothing but good things...

    Anyone Loving The IMR XBR 8208 in 223 ?

I've tried with 55 and 60 gr ballistic tips , 68 and 69 gr HPBT loading . Best load to date is with 23.3 XBR topped with a 69...

    Mini-14 ammo

    Very well documented issue with the Mini 30 ( 7.62 ) , not so much with the Mini 14 . Do a serch at Perfect Union if you would like to know more . I guess the Berden primers used in the steel cased Ruskie plinking ammo are a little harder than the Boxer primed .

    Bushy v DPMS?

    Ya only missed ' genius ' somewheres in that .... To the OP , Figure out what the main intended purpose will be for this weapon for sure . If your gonna go play weekend Rambo , and throw 1000 rounds down range each and every weekend then maybe a bit higher grade rifle would be in order . When...
