The force is strong with MZ5. Found and loaded some IMR4451. Put 10 shots within a hair over 3/4" at 100yards. Loads were increased by .3 grains from published minimum and the 140 grain Berger hybrid targets jumped .020" to the factory lands. Total round count on the hammer forged chromolly...

Picked up a small box of Berger 140 grain hybrid target bullets but couldn't find h4350 or varget. What about 760 or imr4895? There locally available

Was on the hunt for local scope cap and stumbled across a R.P.R. in 6.5 Creedmoor (for the wife;)). After getting it home and reading the manual I started looking at bullets and powders online. When it came time to order reloading supplies google search was helpful in purchasing dies, brass, and...

Berger juggernaut!

Ordered a Stainless 20" 1:11 5P rifled barrel with a .875 rifle length gas. Adjustable gas blocks around .875" aren't easy to find. Know of any manufacturers or websights besides superlative (bypass designs)?

The scope had always been left at 9x but when snapping in the magnification was backed off to 3x. When rotating "the ring" noticed the reticle would shift within the scope. Thought the eyes might be getting shifty so strapped the rifle down and used the phone camera to confirm (pro) don't need...

Was snapping in position today and found out the scope is broken. Looking at Athlon Argos... thoughts?

Estimated velocity by comparing actual drop measurement with jbm drop table in inches. Used 100yrd zero then measured drop at 300, 500 and, 800 yards. Adjusted the velocity in JBM until the drop table matched actual drop measurements. Then used the chronograph to measure bullet to bullet...

Got a little carried away with the scale... and sorted 100 primers individualy into weight groups. The group sizes are calcilated by a median/average. Measured 10 groups of 5 shots. Took out the largest and smallest groups. And, added the group sizes together then divided by 8 for the remaining...

The cleaning rod and a make shift dead-blow trick. Luckily, I've only seen it performed. Similar to the disappearing pencil from batman. It just looks wrong and everyones quiet while they watch it happen. Anyway, great recommendation. And to answer ArchAngelCD, I'd double down on what Slamfire...

Thanks Slamfire! Just loaded from 40.5 up to 41.5 @ 2.830. From there i stagered up to 42.8 (sierra bullets max load for imr4895) @ 2.800 COAL. Forgot how much time can get wasted obsessing over the pefect hand load.

Yes 308win haha, good catch. Can't believe all that was left out. It's a "semi gas-gun" (dodging the "Alpha Romeo" designation). It has an 18" tube, sporting 6R, twisted 1:10 and, made from the 416r veriety. Reason for confusion: Google reads IMR's 4064 and 4895 burn rates around 5% of each...

Had some acceptable groups around 41.7 and 42.6 gr of imr-4064 w/ 175gr SMK @ 2.835 COAL. Long story short, was handed some imr4895 nearly free. Can someone with silimar experience please share there imr4895 charge weights

Parts ordered + cob double angle cutter for mill. Thanks lol switching over to snipershide. Out

Well put, I stand corrected. The penetrate rating of armor will determine if 7.62 AP will pass through. Even an API might not penetrate an armor rated high enough. However the majority of chest plates (SAPI), issued to military personnel until replaced by more protective ESAPI then XSAPI...

7.62x51 AP WILL penetrate steel and sapi plate armor. The black tip is for designation purposes. Some folk paint the tips of munitions without tungsten, steel or, other piercing cores for the cool factor and then sell or trade them off. .308 AP ammo is more than capable to penetrate various...

Maybe the answer isn't to change the minds of those who have withered their rights through emotional persistence but, to educate the future generations of there rights and the way things should be. If you consider gun legislation to be similar to others you'd see a trend. Ask an older person is...

There was once a time when the NRA was partially devoted to ensuring the leaders of this country would never consider violating the second. It just wasn't on option and they would never let it come to that. Now the police chiefs, college presidents, states in defiance and, all in between have to...

Most people only see the negative side of loaning out a firearm. If you loan out a gun to someone trained to use because there's is temporarily out for servicing and that person saves the lives of others with it, you just made an investment in human life. Team work makes the dream work. Don't...
