  1. ^^^This and the Yeti is a 308 case cut down similar to what is done with a 223 case to make Blackout. Then what is left is necked down to 358. The resulting bullet fits in an AR15 mag and rifle. 358 Win is a 308 case necked up and run in a 308 AR mag and rifle.
  2. 4 videos total. When the first ends click the right arrow to go to the next one.
  3. But.....but why? They both have the same number 360 in their name!
  4. LOL. You silly guyyyy (said in my best not politically correct asian accent)
  5. Price drop. $2199
  6. 01/07/2020 GONE! Everything is gone as of now. I will still be picking up as I can but right now everything is in limbo. This past year was only possible because my wife was doing most of the picking up and those of you that I count as friends know what happened there. Thanks to all of you! You have been a pleasure to deal with and with any luck things can continue in some way.
  7. That'll do it.
  8. A lot of people are using Match ammo to hunt with in the Grendel. That stuff is made to splat when it hits something hard (steel plate, shoulder bone?). The use of hunting bullets would probably eliminate a lot of those lost deer. Or getting over the 30-06 habit of blowing away both shoulders to drop a deer.
  9. Finished up brass prep on Grendel and 300 BLK. Grendel on the right, BLK on the left.
  10. SOLD
  11. Obviously this doesn't literally apply to Tom as his answer would be NO. Why would he develop loads in northern WI when he lives in AZ? I am in the middle of a huge brass prep binge and I keep wondering if its worth it to attempt load development while we are in the grip of winter weather. I'm not totally nuts to attempt anything in super cold, but I'm wondering about 20-30+ degrees. For the Grendel I'll be using 8208 XBR but how temp insensitive is it going to be when shooting targets in summer at 70-90* ?
  12. Squeamish about open appendages are we Tom?
  13. ^^^This right here. Use a universal decapping die first to only punch out the old primer. The die body never touches the case. Wet tumbling with pins, Dawn dish soap, and citric acid powder cleans the entire shell casing, including the primer pocket to a spotless shine. Then start your resizing process whatever it is.
  14. The magazines are here but not out of the packages yet. I hope to get at least one to the range this coming week for a test shoot.
  15. SOLD
  16. Its not quite that good. Send to Magpul the magazines that don't work. They issue store credit. We order new 300 BLK magazines and they send them to us. For six 30 round .223 mags + $2 and change we are getting five 300BLK magazines back because of their price difference. Now we're waiting for them to arrive. Still not bad if it solves the problem.
  17. How is that Yeti working out for you?
  18. This is a custom built 20" pencil barrelled AR15. It was built with Coyote hunting and being as lightweight as possible in mind but was never completely broken in and it has fewer than 200 rounds downrange. The only reason I am selling it is that circumstances require trimming the collection. It features: Anderson Mfg. Upper and Lower Faxon 20" Rifle Gas Pencil Barrel 1:8 twist Toolcraft Black Nitride Bolt Carrier Group Rise Armament 3.5lb Drop in Trigger Radical Firearms 15" Handguard Strike Industries JComp Compensator Nikon Prostaff 4-12 X 40 Scope Nikon Scope Mounts Magpul Stock Magpul BAD Extended Bolt Release Lightweight Nylon Sling I am including six 30 round Magpul Pmags with the rifle. Add your ammo and you are ready to go. $899
  19. This is a barely broken in custom built locally 300 BLK. Fewer than 200 rounds downrange. The only reason I am selling it is that circumstances dictate trimming the collection.

Add your ammo and you are ready to go. $849
  20. This complete Aero Precision custom build package is ready to shoot. It has been gently used and has been a consistant MOA shooter for me. The only reason I'm selling it is circumstances dictate trimming the collection. Its features include: Aero Precision Lower Aero Precision Enhanced Upper and M-Loc Handguard Aero Precision Nickel Boron Bolt Carrier Group 18.5" Criterion 308/7.62 Lightweight Barrel from Fulton Armory Bravo Company Extended Latch Charging Hanndle LaRue MBT2 2 Stage Trigger Nikon P5 3.5-14 X 50 adjustable paralax scope Nikon Scope Mounts Phase 5 trigger finger extended bolt catch Magpul Stock Nylon Lightweight Sling I am including ten 20 round Magpul magazines and two 5 round ASC magazines as well as front and rear Butler Creek flip up scope covers, and an Uplula magazine loaded/unloader.

Additional pictures can be provided upon request. $2399
  21. Welcome from Woodruff
  22. I was thinking of doing exactly that. I eliminated the entire internal rib on two 30 round Pmags to run subs as long as I could in the mag. Both of them work just fine. I wonder how Magpul would feel about replacing the 6 Pmags my son bought to use with this blaster.
  23. Ummm, what is Tom's favorite saying??? Don't complicate shiit with complicated shiit!
  24. This is what I did and I think I found the problem. I loaded 5 rounds, fired two, leaving the third in the chamber, then verrrrry slowly dropped the magazine out of the lower and this is where I found the 2nd to last bullet. Not even IN the magazine, but sitting on top of the last bullet and the right side feed lip bridging them. This was with the 30 round Pmag, and it happened more than once. In a 5 round ASC metal mag and a 15 round C-Products metal mag, all 5 rounds fired perfectly with no sign of the 2nd to last bullet bridging out of the mag. My buddy the gun pusher (yes I have one too) loaned me a 30 round Lancer L5 300 BLK mag to try and it worked perfectly too. Apparently this thing is allergic to Pmags and prefers longer nosed bullets. Luckily I have 100 Barnes Tac-Tx bullets to load up to use for hunting and theres no need to use more than a 5 round mag in a hunting situation. Hopefully mystery solved.
