It is commonly stated that ammunition performance can vary with temperature. Some powders are even sold under the claim that they are more stable. I wanted to see for myself with some of the common rounds that I shoot (factory and hand loaded). Here's what I did: First, thanks to Blue Bell's...

The guys over in the rifle forum seem so good at solving these, I thought I would try out the shotgun side. :D A buddy inherited the following and we have no idea what it is. Best guess is some kind of .410, though I don't have a shell to chamber to test the fit. It has a flip up breech...

Petition put on by some conservative pundits (Bill Bennett, Mike Gallagher, Janet Mefferd, Dennis Prager, Michael Medved and Hugh Hewitt.) and the US Concealed Carry Assn. Some social media links can be found there too for sharing. http://www.supportsecondamendment.com/

Please pass along if you feel that it can reach some. Great point of view from a former non-gun rights believer. http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=vn7bkncf1_E&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Dvn7bkncf1_E%26feature%3Dyoutu.be

According to Google, the tools of our hobbies here are considered prohibited to their new policies. http://support.google.com/merchants/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2632553 As such, the online merchants that you support, and that provide economic legitimacy to the firearms industry, will not...

I have seen several threads asking about new triggers for their AR style rifles. The rifle was designed for combat, and thus their triggers are made to be reliable and safe in adverse conditions (and don't forget cheap too). For anyone not happy with their factory setup, there is a host of...

There will be a 6.8 SPC focused range day at Marion Road Gun Club on April 21st. Nothing fancy, but we are looking forward to a good time. Details here.

If anyone has noticed the lack of C Products magazines on the shelves, it is because C Products hasn't existed for a while now. I am not affiliated with them so any attempt by me to tell the story would only be hearsay. I have been trying to follow their activities since they made good AR mags...

I hope this is acceptable here, but Barnes is running a promo on their MPG (jacketed frangible) bullets. I mainly shoot 110 gr from my 6.8 AR, but I like the idea of an 85 grain bullet going +3000fps for varmints, then turning to dust on impact...

Anyone familiar with Cool Springs may or may not know that this Sunday is the last match before the gates close for good. Here is the e-mail. and the FB page: http://www.facebook.com/CoolSpringsGunClub

Good To Go Ammo is offering 6.8 SPC ammo now for $15.20 a box. Does anyone have any experience with these guys in other calibers? They sound like they have a decent presence in Texas, but I live in Georgia Arms country. I mostly handload, but that pricing isn't too bad considering...

Is there a preferred powder for steel loads? It will mostly be 3.5" 12ga. Unique is handy and Tightgroup is readily available. Thanks.

If anyone saw season 2's opening episode, the 1st challenge was stated to be a recreation of the Pre-Civil War sharpshooter unit entry test. It was stated that the rifle used in the challenge was the same used in the original test. Is this correct? I was not aware of either side having...

Does anyone have experience loading/shooting BlackBullets? Specifically, in a factory Glock barrel? https://blackbulletsinternational.com/Home_Page.php I am looking at trying some for a .40 load. Thanks!

Out of JHPs and looking for recommendations for MO Bullet's .44 options. Since the name Elmer Keith is synonymous the cartridge, those are my first leaning. But how about the others? What experience can anyone offer? Are these also acceptable for whitetail or should I stick with JSP/JHPs for...

A friend exiting Ikea in Atlanta noticed on the entry door a message saying "weapon free environment" and the international no symbol over an image of a pistol. The person was licensed to carry, but the GA statute states, "private property owners or persons in legal control of property [...]...

Gonna start loading for my Marlin .256 Win Mag. I have a few boxes of brass and a standard die set. However, I would like to know what is involved in creating new brass from .357 mag cases. I have never done anything beyond basic resizing. Thanks.

http://www.ruger.com/products/sr556/specSheets/5909.html http://www.ruger.com/products/sr556/index.html Ruger has introduced the SR556 in 6.8 SPC now. Unfortunately they are using obsolete chamber specs. For that price tag, I just don't know why you would want one when you will never be...

I am relatively new to middle GA but am settled enough to want to get back into shooting. I shot high power in Texas and really enjoyed the camaraderie. I would be interested in something similar or along the lines of practical shooting. There are some SASS groups near me but I am not...
