I'm hoping. Been at it awhile trying to get rid of the 2 and 1 out thing. Ready to start the real fun of 300-1K dope confirmation and then it's just banging steel and killing dogs. Also a 900 yard PRS style shoot in a couple weeks I'd like to attend. But need to get the load and drop chart...

Well I got the 5 rounders specifically so I can use it for coyote hunting on public/BLM ground just in case...I have a couple 10 and 30 round polymer mags for private ground use. Honestly probably won't use them hi capacity mags much anyway. No mag dumps and unnecessary throat wear here. If I...

Here are the mags. They look decent to me. Tac welds are good. Function ok, pop in and out just fine. Should be able to get 2.315" out of them from my crude measurements anyway.

Just got back from the range with another seating depth test. Did 3 shot groups at 5 to 40 off in 5 increments. Hoping 25 off is repeatable as it's 1/4 MOA with an ES of 7.

Well I took the AR out for a function check and sight in. Just took a random load with some leftover BLC2 powder at 27.5g and a 52g smk at 2.25" Fired 35 rounds total and not 1 problem. So that's good, I must've put it together halfway right ha! After I got it on paper at 100 yards and shot a...

Got the Upper today. Mounted up the Burris. Now I just need to load some ammo and get it sighted in! Then get some load development going with some 53g VMAX, 73g ELMDs, and 75g BTHP Match.

Will do! Should be here Wednesday or Thursday. Hopefully I don't have to modify them any. I did read that issue about the weld not being right on some of them, but hoping that issue is fixed by now.

I just ordered a couple ASC 5 rd steel mags that after a little research can get a little longer COAL of 2.315" So we'll see how that helps with the 73g ELDM and 75g BTHP Match. I realize you can mag feed those 2 bullets at 2.250" but that just eats up way to much case capacity and puts you that...

I wasn't even aware of that tension screw and what it did until you said something about it and I you tubed it. Good to know! Shows how much I know about these ARs hahaha.

Been using that trick for 15 years or so myself. That cheap collet thing they give you just doesn't cut it. Be careful at times, the shell holder will ruin the rim of your cases on 222/223 to the point where the case is no good, or any other cartridge with a lot of neck tension for that...

Well I figured since I've had an Aero AR15 lower for almost 10 years sitting on my bench, I figured I'd get to building it. I put the LPK in it (minus the trigger) when I bought the lower and just been sitting ever since. I ordered a LaRue MBT trigger and LA Ruth MBA-1 Stock and bought a MagPul...

I actually had a guy named Jerry Stephenson do it for me. He goes by Carlsbad on the forums. Ben never did return my email. But yes, I'm glad it's taken care of now. I would definitely recommend him and his work.

Got my bolt back from being bushed a few days ago and had to wait for these crazy 25-40mph winds to die down before I could get out and test a few more loads and see if that bushing helped any. Well, it definitely cured the cratering! Super happy with that as it was quite annoying. Also shot 5...

A buddy of mine wanted me to load 100 rounds up for his 300 Win Mag with new Nosler brass, 200g ABs and RL22, and in return he would give me 600 Fed 210 LR primers in trade. I gladly accepted as I'm down to my last 200 LR primers, and I've yet to find any locally the last couple years. Since I...

I see them used a lot on 22 LRs and smaller 22/6/6.5mm centerfires. Not sure I'd trust them on a big WBY magnum. I like to stick with good known scope manufacturers either way just in case you run into any issues. Not a good look for them if you have to go through all that hassle of getting in...

Good stuff Ernie! I actually was debating building a 7 Dakota when I had the 7-300 Win Mag built, but brass and dies were the limiting factor for me. I might revisit the idea when my 7-300 Win Mag shoots out. I've always liked that cartridge and it's one of the very few 7 mags I haven't either...

Since we are on the subject of 7mms right now, I also want to point out another false claim of his. The 280 AI vs the 7 Rem Mag. Everyone knows these 2 can be loaded pretty close to one another, yet he says "that's bullshit". Now we all know the 7 Rem Mag will outdo the 280 AI, but not to the...

He's still a douche, and nothing you say or quote from me is going to change my mind. Great thing about America is everyone can have their own opinions and thats fine. But when you want to make apples and oranges comparisons, and contradict statements to where its only good if you use it, IE 22...

Im definitely not confused hahaha. I for one know the difference between an apples to oranges comparison like that moron is talking about. And I also understand exterior ballistics very very well. It's pretty hard to get anything past me when it comes to ballistics. Like I said earlier, I get...

Sounds like a great idea to me! Can't wait to see what you can do with it. I really debated on the 223 AI, but I decided against it for FF and expensive dies. Figured I'd be pretty close to AI numbers with a 28" tube from the 223 Wylde anyway.
