Re: Hornady 190 gr Sub-X load data

So, results weren't optimal. I was getting 780 fps average with 10 grains of VVN120 out of a 9" 1:7 twist AAC barrel at that CBTO length. I'm hoping for 980-1000 fps at the muzzle and 2 MOA at 100 yds. If I'm going to stick with N120, I'm going to increase the powder charge from 11grains and st...

Hornady 190 gr Sub-X load data

I bought a couple boxes of the Hornady 190 Sub-X bullets from Midway and received them yesterday. I loaded up 15 to take to the indoor range for basic function testing later today. I've really started to like VV N120 and my short barrels and suppressors like 10.5 grs behind 220 gr projectiles. With ...

Re: AAC MPW 9” SBR with 7.62-SDN6

Buying or selling? Except for the barrel and BCG, there isn't much really remarkable about the set up. I have the exact same: 9" PDW and SDN-6. I love it, but the combo is dated. New old stock 12.5 inchers aren't selling for $800 on gunbroker, so whats a used 9" worth? New N6s are like $55...

N120 and Nosler 220 HPBT

Hello All, I'm looking for a good starting recipe for Nosler 220 HPBT and N120. I've found data using N110, but nothing for N120. I've taken a liking to N120 with the 208 Amax, but I'm sitting on a bunch of the noslers. I'm using a stock 9" AAC MPW with pistol gas system, H2 buffer, and AAC BCG...

Re: What's wrong with making 300 BLK brass?

Nothing wrong with converting brass. I've not converted 556 brass myself, but before properly headstamped cases were available and affordable, I had really good and really bad experiences with the quality of converted brass bought from folks on this forum. A little off topic, but if you plan on trai...
