Re: Problems w/Berry's 220gr subs

Ahhh - I must have missed that advisory on Berry's website. I'll bet that my gun's faster twist (1:5) has something to do with it. That's disappointing. Regarding the powder, I've come to the same conclusion most of y'all have about CFE BLK, which is to say I don't care for it. I don't think I'll b...

Re: Problems w/Berry's 220gr subs

whats the diameter of those berries? have you checked random samplings for consistency?

Re: alternate sighting option for a 300BLK AR handgun

multiple company's make foam sleeves that are meant to go over the buffer tube extensions. just wasnt a fan of the texture. i choose felt because ... well.. its smooth and i had it on hand leftover from covering a speaker box a while in the past. little bit of super 77 and she stuck like it was mean...

Re: alternate sighting option for a 300BLK AR handgun

I agree. I also don't want you to misunderstand, a cheek weld is fine for some things. But for room distance it just isn't required. But if I should need to clear my home, not a desire for me, I want my support hand out near the muzzle for me to have leverage and the buffer tube tucked in at my sid...

Re: alternate sighting option for a 300BLK AR handgun

the optics - as i understand the proposed regulations anyway - that will trigger extra points are those with limited eye relief. ie: a typical traditional rifle optic thats designed for usage on the rear of the receiver with your face making contact with a stock and only 3-4" away from the opti...

Re: Old armor piercing .30 caliber rounds

if you're going to toss them i'll happily take them off your hands, for collectors reasons.

it'd be a shame to have them just go to corrosion.

i'll even happy volunteer to pay for the shipping label. :mrgreen:

Re: self defense ammo for apartments

Possibly the best end. Anything that ends without lethal force to the perp and violence toward a loved one is a good outcome for you folks. Lethal force projected at others can get very expensive, so I've been told. ya. i'm glad it never escalated further. the trauma on her was bad enough as is... ...
