    Large Small Rifle Primers for 6.5mm Creedmoore

    I have noticed recently that 6.5mm Creedmoore brass is offered with small or large primer pockets. Is there an advantage of one over the other? I've only used large rifle primers for this rifle. Thanks in advance for any help with this question. Shabo

    Looking for a new laser rangefinder

    I'm looking to buy a new rangefinder. I have a Nikon Rifle Hunter 550 I bought maybe 8 years ago. It still works but the rubber on the exterior of the unit has turned into a gooey mushy mess. It's like it was dipped into a solvent or something. I have a Cannon SLR that has the same problem with...

    Saami Specs?

    I'm looking at the chamber diagram on the saami spec sheet for the 6.5 Creedmoor round. I want to know where the rifling starts. I see the end of the chamber @ 1.925". There are three more dimensions listed after the end of the chamber. Can someone tell me what those dimensions are? Which one is...

    Lee Collet Die...Patent Expiration?

    Anyone know when Lee's patent on it's collet dies expires? I would expect the other major die makers to start making these dies whenever it does. I've read a lot of good reviews of these dies. They don't make one in 6.5mm Creedmoor so I'll have to wait for others to join the market. Shabo

    Neck Length?

    How much length should be left open in the chamber to allow for neck growth? I'm just getting started loading 6.5mm Creedmoor and have found out the distance from bolt face to the end of my chamber. Now how much should I subtract from this measurement to determine the max case length I should...

    Tikka T3 Tactical - Eval?

    I've got an AR-10 that I'm not happy with the accuracy. It won't hold smaller than 5 inch groups out to 200 yds with different brands and bullet weights of 'match grade' ammo. So I'm gonna sell it. I want to replace it with a more accurate rifle. I looked at a few precision rifle builders...

    Removing light rail from M&P 45c

    Anyone out there removed the light rail from an M&P pistol? I'm gonna buy an M&P .45c and don't want the rail on the gun. I know the M&P's have a stainless skeleton embedded in the polymer frame. I doubt it extends into the rail though. I think a dremel tool will make short work of the rail...

    Any help for XD triggers?

    Went to by an XD .45 compact last weekend, changed my mind after dry firing one a half dozen times. I thought the trigger was terrible! Too much travel before engaging whatever is engaged before the striker is released. Is there any way to improve on the stock trigger? I'd still like to buy...

    Looking for Hi Cap .45 for CCW

    I'm in the market for a .45 CCW pistol. I carry an M&P 9mm compact now and I really like the gun, no complaints. I just want the larger caliber if I can find what I'm looking for. I'd buy the M&P 45 compact in a heartbeat if it carried more rounds in the mag. It has an 8 round capacity. I know...

    AR-10 mag questions?

    Did Armalite make mags for the AR-10 before the AWB went into effect or were surplus M14 mags always used for these rifles? If Armalite did make mags were they any better than surplus M14 mags? I've always wanted an AR-10 but never got one because of the steep mag prices. Now that Klinton's...

    Why the hidden serial #'s??

    Can someone tell me why on the auction sites the sellers hide a portion of the serial no. of the guns they are selling? They usually list them something like this, 123xxx. I realize the first few no.'s will indicate the age of the gun but why not give out the full no.? Shabo

    Firestorm .380 vs Bersa Thunder .380

    Looking to get one of these two pistols for my wife to use as a purse gun when she travels for business. I have read here that these two guns are made in the same factory by the same people. I have looked at the website and the cosmetic differences are obvious. Are there internal differences...
