I picked up a new Rem 700 20" threaded barrel w/ 1 in 10 twist (intended for subsonic suppressed loads?). Does anyone have any good advice on what bullet weights to try for this faster-than-usual twist? I've been trying to feed it 155 grain Secnar bullets which I had left over from a...

After using wax for resizing lube, do people usually dump the rounds back in the tumbler, or clean them up one at a time by hand? I've been doing this with paper towels, but its just one more step in my case prep process that I'd like to streamline. For those that use a tumbler, do you use...

Anyone ever done this? I'm trying it now and I'm wondering 1) when its going to catch on fire 2) is 275' enough temp? too much? 3) how long to cook it in the oven? 4) I painted the Rust Veto on with a brush, is that good enough, or must it be soaked? 5) I took the stock off, so we're...

My 12g 870 (21" vent rib remchoke from Remington Country Store) likes to hold on to shotshells when it gets hot and a little dirty. Usually this is after 6-15 shots in rapid succession like at a practical shooting / 3gun match. It usually frees itself with some serious effort on the pump...

Pretty fun time. My favorite stage finished with a sprint to a steep berm for shots on three 280y and two 480y targets. The 280s were tiny. All targets were light grey on a flat dark earth background and pretty hard to see. However, I had already adjusted the focus on my 1-4x for LR...

My CZ 452 FS .22lr just loves to send the first shot about 4MOA to the 11 o'clock position. Its predictable, and even just the few seconds (1 minute?) it takes to reload a single 10 round magazine is enough to get the flyer, while a quick change of an empty mag for a pre-loaded one won't cause...

My wylde chambered AR with 1/8 twist barrel seems to like the mag length (2.260" oal) sierra 69gr, but doesn't like 75gr VLD Hornady AMax rounds loaded just off the lands. Is this a common preference for wylde chambers to prefer mag length ammo, or disapprove of VLD bullet designs? What...

Shot my new 12 gauge remington 870 with an 18" barrel last night for the first time. I put about 15 Remington Slugger 1oz rounds through it. I'm a shotgun noob, but I've been shooting rifles for about 15 years. I guess the gun has a decent recoil pad on it from the factory, because my...

I have an assortment of LC brass from '03-09 (although most of it is 06,07,08). Are the different years known to have different properties? In other words, should I sort this stuff by year, or can I treat it all the same? Its going into my Wylde chambered AR15 for use in highpower...

I think I believe that sight radius is a significant factor in practical handgun accuracy, but I'm not sure if I know how to prove it with the math. Rifles however, and I'm not convinced. Does sight radius matter much in practical rifle accuracy? Lets say we're talking a carbine length...
