    Crossbow Advice

    I would say, with the shoulder issues you probably want to get a crossbow that has a cocking device built in and try to keep weight down. Don't get caught up in the crazy screaming speeds. The pricing is really all over the place. I've had my PSE Fang for probably about 15 years now. Just a...

    6mm GT Rifle recommendations

    Hey everybody. Another guy looking to get into long range shooting. I think I've settled on 6mm GT. Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations on rifles. Nothing too crazy. I'd be looking at production class if anything once I bone up on skills. Pretty sure they have a $3K limit. I don't...

    OC semi endorsement

    If they were purchased before the law, they are grandfathered. You are also allowed to "borrow" a semiauto from someone without the permit/endorsement. So....yeah

    Gun Shop Sued by NY AG

    Misdemeanor. Eh... No rights lost. Listen, this guy may or may not be a scumbag. I don't know. Do you personally know him? Point is it does seem like a lot of grandstanding over a misdemeanor. Class A or not. Having an unserialized lower is the same offense. It certainly wouldn't make you a...

    OC semi endorsement

    What's fucked up is as far as I know there is no way to get a SA permit without a pistol permit. So to have a permit requirement without a way to get the permit is pretty sketchy. I'm no lawyer but that certainly seems unlawful. Not that something as trivial as lawfulness has ever stopped NY

    Gun Shop Sued by NY AG

    I don't know enough about this case to comment on the specifics, but it sure seems like the lawsuit is because they can't prosecute. Kinda seems like we've seen this movie before.

    NYPD officer, civilian shot in Midtown, Manhattan; suspect flees into building: police sources

    A high capacity magazine, suppressor and body armor in the commission of a crime. That's simply not possible in NY.

    Going to have an AR built, need optic options…

    I have a primary arms SLX 1X. I also have a problem with astigmatism. I was able to dial the diopter for a clear sight picture with the reticle, but the image was actually less than 1X. Objects appeared further away

    Going to have an AR built, need optic options…

    https://www.sigsauer.com/tango-msr-lpvo-1-6x24mm-sfp.html I picked up one of these. Features and performance far outway the low cost. Glass is good. Illuminated reticle in a true 1X for quick sighting with both eyes open. Includes a cantilever mount. Heck it even has a line on the side so you...

    No hazmat

    Brownells has no hazmat on powder and primers right now in case you aren't on their mailing list. Looks like they have magtech large rifle primers in stock too. Just an FYI

    Same here. This was the first time I've heard of it. I definitely plan on testing it as my permission slip is still in the works

    Pistol permit for reloading?

    So my buddy went to Cabela's today to get some Hornady die bushings and he's telling me that they made him show his pistol permit. Has anyone else heard of this?

    I'm sure Tisto's spray would've worked easier but the Rem 40x was available so thought I'd give it a shot

    RIA Lion X4 barrel pitting/flaking

    Might be worth a shot. I did go back and check with a long handled plastic pick and it seems to actually drop down into the grooves and check marks in the barrel. Some of them aren't visible in the pics. I did find a post from someone with a RIA VR80? with the same problem shooting only slugs...

    WTB Ruger Mark I magazine

    My buddy just picked up a Ruger Mark I and we're trying to find an extra mag or 2. I think there used to be an extended mag release available too. It's a pretty cool little gun. Serial puts it at 1965. Shoots great, just need stuff. Let me know if you've got anything lying around. Thanks

    RIA Lion X4 barrel pitting/flaking

    So I bought this just as a fun gun. I wasn't expecting it to be amazing especially for the price. It's a Rock Island Armory Likn X4 semi-auto. It was around $300. It's actually pretty cool, fun to shoot. The trigger is definitely on the heavy side. It has a shell selector switch, 4 chokes. One...

    What are your favorite Dies

    I'm using a Hornady lock ring. I don't know why they don't include lock rings. I did call Lee. They basically ran through some things with ne and kind of left it there. I'll probably get it replaced. Not sure if maybe it doesn't like the bullet. I told him what I was loading, sounded like he...

    What are your favorite Dies

    I'm getting.009" runout with my Lee Grendel die. I am new to reloading, but I still know consistency is the best path to good results. I'm not trying to bash Lee. IMy .223 die set works well and bullet seating is within.003" and I like the factory crimp die. I just wanted to know what...

    What are your favorite Dies

    So I've been having a consistency problem with my Lee bullet seating Die in 6.5 grendel. My RCBS Small Base dies in 7.62x51 seem pretty consistent. Just wondering what everybody else is using and having good results with. Lee tells me .005" runout on the seater die is normal (mine is excessive)...

    Scale changes w trickler near

    OK, got the new scale. Powered them both up and let them warm up. Cal and zero with powder pan. After sitting for a couple hours the old one changed .5gr while the new one remained the same. I loaded 50rds of 6.5 grendel. I didn't notice anything change on the new scale. The old one I had to...

    Spoke with Frankford. Super easy to deal with. Didn't have to wait on hold forever. They are sending a new scale, so we shall see what happens.

    Scale changes w trickler near

    Haven't been at the bench, however I was having trouble duplicating it. I'm going to see what happens next time I fire it up. I always warm this thing up for hours before I use it, but still get weird deviations. Then when I go back and check my powder weight from the case it comes back lighter...

    Scale changes w trickler near

    So yeah, I let the scale warm up for quite a while before hand. I also agree that as long as the weight is correct with the trickler next to it then who cares. I've had some other anomalies that I don't like. The scale is calibrated and zeroed everytime I use it and re-zeroed while using. I know...

    Scale changes w trickler near

    Anyone ever experience this, I have a Frankford Arsenal platinum digital bench scale. When I put the trickler next to it the weight changes .4gr. Nothing is touching the scale. It's a Frankford Arsenal trickler as well, not that it would matter. Just wondering if this should be something to...

    .308 reload suggestions

    I've been reaming with the drill. RCBS has a nice reamer that actually hase a base on it so you can't go crazy. Definitely like it better than the standard crimp reamers I've been using. Just picked up the Lee Ram Swager die. Did some 5.56. seems to work well. Haven't tried it on the 7.62 yet

    .308 reload suggestions

    The 168gr SMKs seem to be the go to so when I saw the 168gr Hornady BTHPM for half the price I figured they were worth trying out. Cabela's happened to get a delivery of priners in when I was there the other day so I was able to pick some up.

    Still learning powders. The A2520 was available which kind of makes the decision for you lately. I also grabbed some TAC I'm using in my 6.5 Grendel

    .308 reload suggestions

    I'm full length sizing with RCBS small base Dies. I'm also trimming with lyman E ZEE trim. Of course my 308 pilot is not correct (wasn't stamped and won't fit in case). New Pilot is on the way, but I assume it should trim to 2.005. The Western powder guide doesn't seem to list 7.62 separately...

    .308 reload suggestions

    Picked up some Hornady 168gr BTHP. At that price point I definitely figured they worth trying. Problem is I'm just finding out that large rifle primers seem to be unobtanium. If anyone has a source please let me know

    .308 reload suggestions

    Hey everyone. So just started reloading and I'm wondering if anyone has any good recipes for .308. It's going in a LR308 with Faxon 20" 1 in 10 twist. Pretty much all Aguila 7.62 brass. I was thinking something in the 170gr range, maybe heavier but obviously COAL needs to feed a gas gun with...

    What do you use to clean brass?

    Brass on the left my buddy cleaned for me with the rotary tumble and pins with detergent. The brass on the right I cleaned with an RCBS Vibratory case cleaner I picked up second hand but unused. It came with the Lyman Tuff Nut so that's what I used. Came out great, but I had stupid red dust on...
