    Think of buying a 6creedmoor which rifle?

    I was undecided about rebarreling my .243 slow twist or adding a 6CM. Ended up doing both and lovethe Ruger American. It was good right out of the box with factory ammo and I spent a little changing the stock and trigger to my liking. Very economical for an accurate low recoil rifle.

    Chargemaster lite

    I did take the bottom cover off and looked at the tiny motor that drives the dropper. Does not look like a common part but I did read an article where someone was able to source a miniature motor and solder it in. The article didn’t specify the source of the replacement. I had had this unit for...

    Chargemaster lite

    My Chargemaster lite is out of warranty and the motor for the dropper finally quit. RCBS referred me to an outside company that charges $179 to overhaul the unit with a 5 week turnaround. You pay shipping both ways. Has anyone had this done or just scrapped the unit? The scale on mine is very...

    ATF eForm 4 Reduced Wait Times?

    First one a couple of years ago was 268 days. Second one last year was 165 days. When I picked it up last month, the shop said individual trusts were being approved in days, not weeks or months. This is a fairly high volume gunshot with kiosk.

    Any recent preferred barrel blanks reports?

    Been following this whole sequence and I can understand your disappointment. It certainly is getting clean enough. After this many rounds with no improvement the time has come to get a decision from PBB. With that cartridge and combo you should get at least .5 MOA. Please let us know what they...

    Like hunting subsonic suppressed? Here’s what is sounds like down range.

    In my AR the 220s are very quiet. Initially, subs would not cycle without the suppressor on, gas block open all the way. After some research, switched to AA1680 powder and it cycles fine with/without the can on. 16” barrel and is at least MOA out to 150. I haven’t tried light bullets like the...

    It will be interesting to see what the rifling looks like after some shots and cleaning. Disappointing.

    ATF sure taking their good sweet time!

    I was told when I picked up my latest suppressor at the shop they are getting individual approvals in about a week now. I guess there is hope

    How is any sporterized rifle with a 2 piece scope base accurate?

    I have a sporterized M98 that was purchased 60 years ago. It has many upgrades over time but carried two piece bases until a couple of years ago when I changed out the barrel. Never was an accuracy issue. I switched to a rail because it makes changing scopes around a lot easier.

    New Xero-Wow

    I put mine in the Evergreen 56 drybox as recommended by one of the members. Very compact and will actually fit in my range bag. Amazon.

    New Xero-Wow

    Finally got my new Garmin Xero. Been too busy to go shoot so for fun I tried this thing in Pistol mode with my old Crossman pellet gun in the back yard. It actually read the fps. 467 on 10 pumps. Guess the Magnetospeed and Chrony will go into backup status. Others have stated how simple this is...

    BURRIS Eliminator 6 WOW!

    That’s a great piece of equipment. If I read the regulations right they are not allowed in Oregon.
