Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. Mine have worked well. Try em, if you're going to buy a choke may find a light mod will get you more for your koney than replacing one ylu already have.
  2. Hope they survive, never had an issue with their ammo, more mfrs the better. That said, as of late I wouldn't be shocked. Hard to see how they can stay afloat when their basic pistol/rifle reloads sell for as much or more than brand new Fiocchi, Speer etc.
  3. I love my Safariland bag. Shot some matches hauling it before I made my cart. I was very surprised how much I could fit into it, and has held up fine. I still use it but now it rides in my cart, much nicer in Florida Summers, as is the cooler it rides with. :-)
  4. Have one on my Armalite. Was going to go with a Vortex or Burris but glad I put out a few more bucks. When they sau red dot is day bright, they mean DAY bright. Mid day on sandy ranges in Florida I only need maybe half power, maybe a click or two over to see it well. Clarity is great, and BDC works well, tried it out to 600yds without issue.
  5. For a P320 you may need lighter recoil spring for soft loads. Seen a normal 320 and an X5 failing to eject with 125ish PF loads.
  6. Gcso12: for your Sig try starting around 3.2gr of Prima SV for 135gr ACME. Did some load tests this weekend with my CZ and 135s and some 147s, and another put a few 135s through his 320 X5. One thing became very apparent: the 320X doesn't seem to like low PF loads, so will likely need lighter recoil springs below 135ish PF. Think his was stovepiping with 125 or 130. Will try n get data up this week if have time. It also had a good bit lower velocity than the CZ at same charge weight, ~ 0.2-0 3gr more to match Vel. CZ Tac Sport ate everything, from 120PF and up. Got some very good SDs too.
  7. Yeah definitely want adjustable gas. Spring wise, the TACCOM buffer works great either with their enhanced spring or the TTI ultimate lightweight (this is what TACCOM's owner recommended before they made their own spring)
  8. I'll hopefully have some 135 and 147 ACME with SV loaded this month. Everything in hand just no time yet.
  9. As said, all the parts play their role. On mine I had an Armalite brake and gas tuned, then later put in a LW BCG, Taccom light weight buffer and TTI spring. Definitely dipped. Retuned gas, dip lessened a bit, retuning brake was still needed though. Your BCG was the pricey part, IMO go the rest of the way, you should be happy where it takes you.
  10. https://www.federalpremium.com/downloads/promotions/FP1417_AE5.56and223promo_web_f.pdf FYI read elsewhere that some skus were added to the list, just call them and they'll confirm. And yep, not tied to seller, eg buy from SGAmmo, PSA, Brownells etc. just print your receipt and save the UPCs.
  11. Wilf Gold has been good for me since trying it a few years back. Federal now has a 5 cent per round rebate up to 4k rnd/$200 dollars on .223/5.56 ammo. For brass 55gr, probably hard to beat the price w/ rebate.
  12. For .223, if you're willing to buy 6k trawl Brownells for when they do one of their 10% off w/ free shipping, brings it down to $380 Hornady 55gr FMJ shipped. http://www.monmouthreloading.com/shop/hornady-55-fmj-bullets/ has good prices as well, 2k, ~$155 shipped, and save a bit more with each 2k increase.
  13. Agree on doubling up. I use Howard Leight electronics over plugs, find it the best if both worlds. Can still hear people talk, great protection w/ SBRd AK, AR w/ huge brake, etc. and low enough profile I'm not knocking them off when using low mounted optics.
  14. I just drilled through the velcro to get my ELS screws in. Thought it would be an initial setup shortcut, afraid I'd want to move things around and lose too much material but it worked perfectly. Bit was nice and goopy but used an old one and it cleaned up easily enough.
  15. Just got a nitride myself, and swapped out the buffer/spring for a Taccom LW rifle buffer and TTI spring. Tuned the gas and only able to put about a hundred rounds through, but functioned flawlessly. As a package, very pleased with the change in handling. Went with the AIM to test the waters before committing the money for a JP or other top tier BCG.
