Re: Explanation for higher than expected velocity
I view "published" data as a good guide, but I don't accept that the info will be 100% accurate to real world conditions. A simple look through most reloading manuals with the same components can easily produce varying velocities. And as dellet said, simply changing a single component from...

Re: Hello from Texas
Thanks dellet, yep, physics + math > conjecture dogma and bravado every time. There is a decent likelihood I would settle on supersonic rounds in the magazine in the suppressed weapon next to my bed, especially if they were quiet enough to not need to worry about our hearing. I do agree with reliab...

Re: Hello from Texas
Just my opinion, but piston systems for a standard AR are a solution looking for a problem.

Re: Sub-sonic hunting: hand-cycle or auto-cycle the action?
AS probably the biggest proponent of ethical subsonic hunting. Your ability to gain quick follow up shots after taking a subsonic shot, are no more possible than using supersonic loads. The impact on the animal is going to be substantially louder than you think. If wanting to keep subsonic I always ...

Re: My newest Creation, M1919 "modernized" belt fed.
Colder than normal winter this year, more free time? Get a new tool for Christmas? I know, the new grandkid is too short for the old stock. Probably have to fire it prone for the next couple years anyway. :lol: Always fun to see your projects up and firing. Thanks Lol, not really, this project has ...

Re: My newest Creation, M1919 "modernized" belt fed.
My main Goal for this was 2 fold. First I like shooting cast powder coated bullets, because I am cheap. Secondly, I really don't like having guns I cannot suppress. An additional thing, is I wanted to do as little permanent modification as possible so as to be able to put it back into original M1919...
