I have a Lothar Walther 18 inch mounted on an upper that I want to convert to 5.56. As it is a working rifle, of course, the bolt would go out with the rifle. I need to find an AR15 barrel to put...
Just to let you all know, the bullets were jamming into the lands. When I checked using my soot method, the lands were clearly visible on the bullets when the C.O.A.L. was 2.260. By shortening the...
HOLY CRAP! I can't believe I overlooked something as basic as the jump to the rifling. I haven't even checked this rifle for that. Something I always check on my precision rifles is jump distance,...
The brass is mixed lots. Some has been reloaded 2-3 times, others closer to 10 times. I discard cases when necks crack, or the primer pockets are loose. When I initially received the Lapua cases...
Sorry, I did leave out an important consideration. It is Lapua brass, I bought all the brass new, and although primers flatten, all the primer pockets are still very tight. I modified the original...
Here are some of my reloading steps?
LAPUA CASES
1. Tumble cases to clean them
2. brush out inside of the case necks
3. Grease cases by...
I use either old firehose, or conveyer belt material to hang the targets from the mounting system. Some of the easiest mounting system is half inch re-bar cut to about 5 foot lengths. Use two half...
I would be very pleased if anyone could figure out a way to get the "mainstream" media to pay attention to the "pro-firearms" community, and give fair reporting regarding the issues and opinions of...
All gone... darn.
I have had both barrel lengths and would never get another 24 inch barrel unless it's sole purpose was shooting from the bench.
I agree with Waites.. Maybe howitzers, or naval gunfire need to consider the coreolis effect, but for most rifle shooters inside 1000 yards, it isn't as much of a factor as how well you can hold...
Alexander Arms has some really neat barrel choices, and their customer service is some of the best I have had in nearly 40 years of competitive shooting. So I don't think you could go wrong with...
A very small tack weld still counts as a weld. If in the future you want to get rid of it, a little work with a file, or small grinding tool like a Dremel, or Fordam tool would quickly remove a...
I had one high end builder of AR's, and Grendels tell me that of greater importance than the amount of torque on the barrel nut, is insuring that where the barrel extension meets with the upper...
If, IF, IF! If only.... Although I'm not from Missouri, "Show me" anyhow.
Plans and good intentions are a far cry from actually putting something on a dealer's shelves. Until something actually hits the shelves, I don't even consider it a reality, only a pipe dream.

Knowing the difference between a flash hider and muzzle brake may simplify your shopping. There are a few keys to purchasing either one:
1. Matching the internal diameter of the muzzle unit to the...
While I'm not surprised that both HK, and Recoil magazine are trying to use "plausible deniability", the magazine could have avoided the entire issue if they would have either:
A: Not suggested...
Conveyor belt, or used fire hose works great. The fire hose is what I use to hold up steel targets at practical rifle matches where the targets take alot of hits. So far, the fire hose shows a few...
