    Top 5...?

    Hi; New to Reloading/Hand-loading... ...VERY "new", as in NO equipment yet except I jumped on 250 Starline Brass .458 SOCOM cases...hard to get, hard to get ammo & pricey.

    .458>.300>.223???

    Ok, tried searching this on the Web...found one young goofy kid on youtube, not completely getting what he was doing, but he sure seemed sure be into it? I just want to know, if someone out there has, unfortunately accidentally tried this or purposely did, or just "knows"? Could a .458...

    16" socom-blackout

    I cannot find trajectory info for common commercial .458 SOCOM vs. .300AAC BO... ...either separately, or comparatively...anyone know a "source"? What I want, I suspect, that there is a bullet weight/load for the .458 vs. the .300 that would have similar trajectory over the SAME range, or at...

    .458socom

    Well, decided instead of getting another .300AAC.Bo, I'd step up to the .458SOCOM...does supersonic & subsonic only BIGGER & badder:D Wilson SOCOM Project, for me ! With a second Wilson Sniper upper in .223Wylde. Anyone shooting the .458 SOCOM, how do you like it, and what do you use it for?

    M4 "Feed-Ramp" vs. A3 Ramps?

    :confused: I have been told...very confusing, that in a AR15 "upper receiver" ...as well as AR15 barrels there are "M4" type, deep-cut/angle FEED RAMPS vs. non-M4 "type" or "A3" ramps[/B]? Then at Daniel Defense website...further confused as they call theirs "A4" feed ramps and say that that is...

    .308WIN to .338FED...?

    Does anyone KNOW, for sure, whether the relationship between .308/7.62x51 caliber "change" to .338 Federal, in an AR10 "type" rifle... ...is similar to the change from a 5.56/.223 to .300AAC Blackout, in that ALL that is required is barrel change...because in the case of the 5.56NATO/.223REM...

    7.62x51 in a .308...kaboom???

    Ok, did not happen to me... ...however this months "Rifle Shooter" magazine, has a featured article on the RUGER SR762 AR10 "type" rifle. This "writer", Patrick Sweeny, says "Ruger told me that they chambered the gun in .308WIN..." ...then he, (Sweeny, NOT Ruger...) says ; "so for the SAME...

    One gun AR...

    So ok, now that I have a clearer picture between the 5.56 vs. .300AAC BO vs. the 6.8SPC... ...it occured to me, that if I could have only ONE GUN, or if I have many guns (which I do) BUT, had to run off into the hills with only one... ...it may be none of those calibers above, in an AR15. It...

    .300AAC & 6.8SPC...how come?

    Ok, so I have both... ...and I am just wondering, maybe someone can work this out? I know, they serve different functions, use, application...however, they both are often cited as an "alternative"... ...to the anemic (or some say) 5.56 / .223 rounds. So the great thing about the .300AAC...

    Bear, with me...

    I know, I know, not another bear thread! I ask, because for me...no longer "hypothetical", as I will be hunting & hiking/skiing in the Glacier / Flathead Valley area of MT., quite a bit and may move up permanently. I have read dozens of these... good info, but really only relevant to...
