    Tempting

    If you have a suppressor for your BLK, would it work for a 300WinMag? Both are 30 cal. Or would the cartridge size difference and pressures stop you from swapping back and forth? Just wondering out loud.
  2. 220 grain commercially loaded subsonic rounds can be hit and miss as far as staying subsonic and/or functioning a rifle. With that being said my 8" barreled SBR ate 110 grain from the get go but wouldn't cycle my 220 grain sub handloads. Opening up the gas port on the barrel to .108 solved that issue. I added an adjustable gas block for the option of turning down the gas when using supers. Right now it eats everything I put into it suppressed. If a 300 BLK won't cycle supers there is something grossly wrong somewhere.
  3. I was thinking of thoroughly pissed off beavers for @98Z5V's benefit. He could shake them around, get them nice and mean, then have a good laugh as he yanks the trigger rope sending them into orbit.
  4. ......beavers made properly mad by shaking up the barrel before launch.
  5. I can't imagine a bowling ball floating.
  6. I have plans for a mini trebuchet around here somewhere made from dimensional lumber. Someone could easily upsize it using larger lumber, or if you really wanted to go big, someone with engineering experience could redesign it any size you want. I've thought about building one about 10 feet tall that could throw pumpkins. Set it up on a beach and fling them into the lake. Take a boat out and retrieve them afterward. Pumpkins float right?
  7. Hmmm, great looking engine! How many rifles is that in today's market?
  8. This is funny, sad, and true all at the same time.
  9. ....and he is here in WI.
  10. @98Z5V As Jack Reacher said...."a phone is a tracking system that makes phone calls."
  11. Why would I want THAT? Just because I have over 1000 10mm cases sitting here? Nope, It's too fugly.
  12. Yep. Pull up a seat and grab the popcorn. This is going to be a good show. Hopefully a few folks get slapped into their proper places.
  13. As long as it works for what you want it to do. Thats what matters.
  14. Ports to the side and top make sense. Direct the major muzzle blast to the sides while smaller ports on top eject gas upward reducing muzzle flip . Ports out the bottom make no sense at all.
  15. Is it my imagination, or how the picture was taken, but the muzzle brake on the M5 looks as if the ports are up and down (vertical). They should be and are designed to be side to side (horizontal). If they are vertical the muzzle blast is directed up and down causing one heII of a blast into the sky and down into the bench or dirt if your prone. No such issue if ported side to side, other than foks next to you at the range may not like it as much.
  16. Thats inconvenient!
  17. Any Ace hardware store has them too.
  18. Another good development. https://www.breitbart.com/2nd-amendment/2023/01/30/rep-andrew-clyde-to-use-congressional-review-act-to-override-atf-stabilizer-brace-rule/
  19. Sarcasm and snark are strong in this one!
  20. Interesting read. https://gatdaily.com/goa-raises-alarms-that-atf-pistol-brace-amnesty-may-be-dangerous/?utm_source=GATdaily&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=1_28
  21. By definition all chaps are assless.
  22. A quick suggestion. A meatloaf pan works great as a bcg oil soaking tray.
  23. If you have a numbered drill bit set (not fractions of inches), you have all you need to measure the gas port. Find the largest numbered bit that fits inside the gas port and the smallest that does not fit. Report those sizes back here.
  24. This is too funny.
  25. OMG!!! LOL
