Did you try GTS? Did you try the manufacturers website? Gather as much information as you can, and use good judgement. I'm not familiar with this particular powder. If there isn't data for your particular projectile selection, that's not normally cause for too much concern. You can calculate...

RRA lower parts kit minus buttstock, substitute the NM trigger. Better than GI trigger pull. $180

I think anything that helps steady the shot should be used. I have used this method in a pinch, I try to avoid it. I believe that it's hard on the magazine, and can develop feeding issues caused by damage to the magazine lips, and the latch notch on the magazine. Magazines aren't so cheap or...

I'm not big on large capacity magazines. However 14 rounds of 300WinMag sounded like a great idea. Sure anybody can get 300WM BAR with a 3 round magazine. I bet this one is more acurate, and can keep up with the bolt rifles for accuracy. For that sort of money it should. Another plus for me is...

I'm curious what percentage of firearm sales that adds up to be? I think I'm a criminal! Not to mention, all mine are for shooting sports, and hunting sports. How does that make them 'assault weapons'? Mine are sporting rifles with ergonomic features that fit my stature. One of them is my...

Well it worked four years ago! Why wouldn't work again? Maybe this time they'll get their legislation through, and make it stick too!

With lever actions, and semi's I use SB small base dies when available. I use mine for hunting, and that one time I didn't get the BCG all the way forward because a case was a little overgrown!! I went home empty handed.

Hey I like your thinking though! It really is a good question. I never even thought about converting one of my ARs to 22LR, that's what the 10-22 is for. For the rest of us needing an AR, or another one, and the recent shortages, depending on the manufacture's mag well design, you might end up...

Three points never stay adjusted right on fixed buttstocks, and worse on adjustable. I use a rail mounted sling loop on my forend, for my front attachment, and a loop plate under the castle nut, for my two point setup. Sort of a flexible cross between a two point and a single point. I use this...

If this is a A2 front sight, then 1 click of elevation change is equal to 1 1/4" at 100 yards. You can tell the difference by looking at the front sight post. If the sides of the post are square, and if the base has only 4 cuts in it, it's an A2 sight. The cuts are where the detent rests. If...

My current carbine sling is a 2 inch wide TAPCO. It is a modular 2point/singlepoint sling. It was on the lower end of the price scale. I like it a lot. For fulltime use a 7lb carbine gets heavy, the 2" strap spreads the load out so its a lot more tolerable. For my full size ARs I prefer a NM...

I also find it interesting that the media is scoffing us for being afraid that a little regulation to our freedom will lead to the eradication of freedom. I also heard the media say that ARs are weapons designed for war. So where did Mouser rifles come from? If I remember right the ARs were...

Nice! Is it a standard sling swivel stud? Could you tell us the particular brand, or give us a link?

Hondo, Pretty, pretty rifle! How do you like the forend? I'm thinking about something smooth, light, thin with a patch of rail for the bipod.

I love my ACOG. Not so powerful it's still great for CQB, and has a little magnification to stretch the legs. Tough as hell, too! little spendy though. go green the tritium is warrantied for 12 yrs
