      Which cartridges benefit the most using a suppressor

      As I am exploring the world of suppressors, I starting thinking about which cartridges benefit the most of using a suppressor. Currently I only own a 22lr suppressor and so far I think it has the greatest benefits form use with a suppressor. It makes it hearing safe, it's not overly long or...

      Suppressor recommendation for 223rem bolt action rifle?

      Looking for suppressor recommendations for 223rem bolt action rifles. Something on the lighter side (around 8-9oz if possible) and not too long as this would be on 20" barrel rifle. So this would probably mean I would be giving up some of the quietness factor on the suppressor? Not sure if $1k...

      Need advice on how to attach bipod

      I didn't like having an arca rail attached to the bottom of my rifle for bipod attachment so I need help exploring other mounting options.

      Curious to hear if anyone has a favorite 22cal plinking bullet that they like to use in their AR15? Has any used the hornady 55gr soft point w/ cannelure bullet? They seem pretty reasonably price and perhaps fit the role as general role plinking use. How's their accuracy? Like to hear what...

      opinion on left-handed Ruger 10/22?

      Does anyone here own left-handed Ruger 10/22? Do you like them? How's the accuracy? Are they worth the extra cost in your opinion? Uses for it are in the Modern American Rimfire Series matches.

      thoughts on hornady xtp 9mm bullets?

      What are your guys thoughts regarding hornady xtp-hp 9mm bullets? As a reloader, this bullets are commonly available and reasonably priced. Speer gold dots are a bonded bullet thus the better bullet but even in good times were hard to come by and were/are more expensive. I like practicing...

      Stag arms 3G AR-15?

      This would be my first AR15 thus looking to buy complete firearm rather than build one. Also since this is Maryland, it needs to be heavy barrel. I'm not sure what are good makes and models to look at. I'm thinking of staying 18" or 20" barrel. Is Stag Arms 3G looks a good brand? I'm left...

      shotgun/straight walled cartridges: what are you using?

      I moved from out of state to Montgomery county and seen the deer hunting regs require either shotgun or straight-walled cartridges. If I'm understanding the regs, a handgun needs minimum of 6" barrel and generated 700 ft-lb energy at muzzle. If straight walled in rifle, needs 1200 ft-lb...

      2021 Reloading Goals

      What, if any, reloading goals do you have for 2021? For me, keep an eye out for primers. Continue to buy components when they become available at somewhat "reasonable price". At least some bullets seem to be coming available. Try to get to the range more in 2021.

      Does mag. size limits change your choice?

      I think this will be a good discussion topic given Maryland residents are restricted to 10 round magazine limits. I've often read on internet forums, etc that if one was to be limited by magazine limits due to law restraints that they would change their firearm preference, ie switching from...

      How accurate stock Ruger 10/22

      Hello everyone, I recently bought a Ruger 10/22 carbine. How accurate are these stock rifles with non-bulk ammo. Stuff like CCI Std Vel, or minimag hp? What about accuracy if you used good ammo like Midas +? Seems like best bang for buck accuracy-wise is to have CTC re-cut the chamber...
