Re: How to change color

Well, this board wasn’t exactly overflowing with new content, but the color change seems to have driven away the few remaining posters. It’s absolutely horrible.

Re: Adding Holographic or red dot to 300 bo

They sell 45°mounts suitable for Burris Fast Fire and similar sized microdots. Best of both worlds. Scope for 99% of your shooting, and the dot ready to go if needed.

Edit: lots of options. Here’s just the first one I found.

Re: Lee 309-170F: Possible for 300BO?

I went with translucent gray Lancers for 300 BLK myself. Very visibly different than my solid black .223 mags and no stacking issues with any bullet at any length.

Re: Lee 309-170F: Possible for 300BO?

These are my results with the Lee 150, same profile, just a bit shorter. They fed, but they got scared up pretty good by the locking lugs.

Re: Powder coat vs lube

Powder coat is slow and messy and requires a whole new set of containers and racks on top of your existing set of containers and racks. PC does shoot cleaner than lubed lead, but I clean my guns after shooting anyway. So step up and make your choice. I chose the ease and convenience of continuing to...
