    7.62 Yahweh cartridge, is anyone familiar with it?

    I wouldn’t shoot anything from someone that would let a “wife’s friend” touch off rounds that weren’t disclosed to him. Having been on the receiving end of a clandestinely inserted 3inch magnum turkey load, when we were shooting clays with target loads, it just isn’t funny. It’s dangerous...

    Burn Rate Chart Inconsistencies

    Through my perusal, WST seems to be another one. I haven’t looked at rifle powders really, but I wonder if there is any to be found there. I prefer to stick with “normal” powders I think. But I guess if I knew before hand I wouldn’t mind.

    Burn Rate Chart Inconsistencies

    I did not. I find that the precipitation and snowfall from the trees to always have something other than a bullet in the screens during the winter. But, it was enough more that I thought I had done something wrong and, perhaps foolishly, only shot the two magazines that were loaded. I still...

    Fun with colors!

    Nice job, Loonwulf! That red really makes it. I bet it melts into the background, over there. I’d like to get a rust blue mimicking paint for the barrel and a hydro dipped fancy walnut design on my most used AR. Then I’d blend right in with all the older guys at the new club in joined!:p

    Burn Rate Chart Inconsistencies

    Last time out with my 45Auto I was very surprised to find the recoil and report to be substantial, much more than what I thought I had loaded it for. Evidently Silhouette is inversely sensitive and burns faster at -10° than at the balmy seventy degrees I definitely prefer to be shooting in. ;)...

    Today I enjoyed the outdoors. I chose to carry......

    Beautiful Gulf Fritillarys and Tawny Skipper, @Mars5l ! Swamped with work, it’s been a while since I’ve been out and about. I have got to make it down to Frederick Meijer Gradens for the butterfly exhibit! Spring is sprung! The Peepers are out! And I’m feeling froggy! It’s snowing at the moment...

    Burn Rate Chart Inconsistencies

    Except when Silhouette gets cold he gets mean. The others only get angry when it’s hot out. How things like this occur are magical to me. And like Slam said, it’s in the companies interests to keep us less than informed, so I continue to be mystified.

    Build a AR?

    This is the most efficient way. Some parts are perfectly acceptable, and buying premium versions is superfluous. Some parts are well worth it. (@Skylerbone, Jinks! 😁)

    Aero Precision

    Thanks for the heads up, but I could sell them for 72% off if I didn’t have any in stock, too… Still, they have a slick side upper, and they are supposed to be on the way, so I entered a “Notify me”. Thanks for the heads up,@kje54 . Always have to be looking out for a deal!

    Picked up 2 guns i inherited from my father.

    I really like my set. I agree with @Show Me , a terrible trade indeed. My condolences for you. May you smile and remember each time you use that fine rifle. In addition, “What? No See-Thru rings?!”

    Build a AR?

    Please, but, forgive me, I am about to digress… That’s how the Gestapo did it as well. Eliminate the teachers. It’s so much easier to steer the masses when they are half stupid, or more… The benefit of books is they cannot magically disappear at the whim of a faceless “algorithm”. It was...

    Is your measure gritty with H110?

    There must be a slightly larger tolerance in my Hornady powder measure as well, @Random 8 . I like ball powders for the ease of use, always spot on, never leaks. However, every once in a while I can feel an errant kernel get mashed between the cylinder and hopper. H-110 being the worst offender...

    Build a AR?

    Finally! I have an example of their blemishes! And worth every penny of discount! I may have mistaken it for my sand paper hands just rubbing the etching off. Now if I could find a Battle Arms Authority receiver set with an unnoticeable blemish for 50% off! 😁

    Build a AR?

    Try not to be disappointed when you don’t. I’ve bought a short ton of blemished items from PSA, Right to Bear(my favorite), and others. I haven’t found what they consider to be the blemish. I have been accused of being colorblind, even though I’m not, and sometimes they say it’s the finish...

    White River primers showing up in the wild.

    That’s what mine said. But I’ll warn you, taking up the “Handy Nanny” mantle is tougher. Two year old twins are not as easy to handle as a grunt that smells like drinking! And they don’t leave any time for the handyman stuff! Maybe y’all need a northern rep? Hours on the road talking to...

    My Newest Rifle, CZ 457 Varmint 22lr

    What kills a rimfire barrel, after a LONG time of shooting, is the abrasion with the silica glass materials that are found in the priming compounds to make them more impact sensitive . This debris is blown down the bore and settles with gravity at the bottom of the bore. Then the bullet rides...

    AR10 Adjustable Gas Block?

    Here is something I stumbled across… GAS PORT SIZES Disclaimer: These are lists of compiled information from multiple sources. While we make our best effort to test and produce these should be considered for reference only. Any time you start messing with the gas port on your rifle you run...

    AR10 Adjustable Gas Block?

    Well, if you do error, you can just put a protective wood or brass rod in the bore and drill the port out with a properly sized # drill bit. By hand or with a press, since it will already be piloted. My 450Bushmaster wouldn’t cycle with even maximum loads. When I stuck the proper sized bit in...

    Thinking about a RIA 22 AR style.

    It’s more important now than it ever was! Luckily, in regards to firearms, it is extraordinarily feasible. Many of Righttobear’s wares are simply rebranded American made products, such as the CMMG rimfire parts. They, like Bkings, are also veteran owned. (But I don’t know where Bkings sources...

    Thinking about a RIA 22 AR style.

    Right to bare has a small clip that attaches to S&W magazines to make them compatible with a standard AR magwell. Found here. https://www.righttobear.com/catch22-s-w-15-22-magazine-adapter-stick-on-catch22-stick/ I like PSA, but give my love to the smaller vendors. We need mice, and elephants.;)
