    63gr AB load data?

    Just needs to poke a hole in predators. At 500 yards it’s got more velocity/energy than a 22 Mag does at the muzzle. I know guys that successfully hunt coyotes at 50-100 yards with a 22 Mag. Based on my calculations, the 51gr AB would maintain 1800fps out last 400 yards! I wonder if a Berger...

    63gr AB load data?

    I’m going to assume you meant 2950fps and not 1950 😜 I want this rifle to kind of be an all around option. I’ve got precision bolt guns for getting out there but the desired role for this AR rifle is 0-600ish for whatever - predators, deer, rocks, steel, paper

    63gr AB load data?

    Yikes! 50’ per inch is rough! If that’s the case, that little 51gr AB is likely only scooting at 3200’ in a 16” AR. Not a bad option but would’ve expected a little more spice. I got a bunch of the 77gr TGK from Blackhills after following along over on the Rokslide thread about how well those...

"Absolutely amazing performance! While this particular bullet has a very narrow selection of powders that can...

    6.5 grendel looking for some ideas

    I just discovered the Oregunsmithing bottom metal option for these little Howas! When the minis first came out, I told myself I'd buy a barreled action if someone would figure out how to make a hinged floorplate. How do you like it? Your little rifle looks sharp! What's the finished weight? Also...

    6.5 Grendel options

    What barrel length are you seeing 3200-3300'? What primers? Magnum, BR, standard? That's impressive velocity from such a little case!

    Hello from central Washington

    Been a minute Harp, hope you're well. I typically hang out reading through the forums (Hammertime, LRH, Rokslide) without signing in most of the time. I'm going to have to change that habit so I don't lose my account over here I guess lol

    Hello from central Washington

    I used to be a member on here and was reading through information about the HHTs and decided to log in, but found my username/email associated with it no longer existed... Just created a new account with the same name. Looking forward to chatting/contributing with everyone again.
