  1. Wow that's gotta be going a good bit faster with a 200 gr. I'm gonna try out the 5gr load tomorrow and see how I do. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. My lee manual says the minimum for a 230gr bullet is 5gr. We all know that's not true but I'm wondering what somebody you idpa guys may have tried to get close to major power factor. I know most run titegroup but I have some bullseye and want to use it up. I can tell you that 5 gr of bullseye seems hotter than the factory stuff. I saw online 4.4 may be a good starting point. I'm gonna try to get access to a chrono soon. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Yeah I'm in the same boat. My logo was also crooked but they are sending me another. The shirt fit great before I washed it but afterwards it's just about too short to wear. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. So has anyone purchased the rail mount 2? I just realized the 2 isn't "dual fuel" like the 1 and will only accept cr123s. I like the idea of accepting AAs as well as cr123s but 625 lumens is hard to pass up versus 325. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Haha I was the one with the typo. I meant to say am I correct but it grouped it together. Thanks guys. I'm gonna go ahead and order one of these. Now just 5 or so more months until I get my suppressor. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. You confused me. Just to make sure it wasn't a typo. It does come with the switch? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. I think I'll go with the rail mount 1 to save some space on the already short hand guard. Seems like a lot of light and gear for the money! I actually carry a protac 2l every day. Am incorrect in thinking it comes with the pressure switch? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Anyone have any recommendations for a light for my sbr? I have a round tube hand guard with a rail on top. I also have the option of installing a Magpul rail section in the slots. I am looking at mounting a tlr-1 at 12 o clock with the flip up sight just behind it. Also thought of having a rail section on the side and using some type of forward set mount to run the light at about 1 o clock. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Awesome. I'm looking forward to it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. I also used all things engraved. They do a great job. I watched a YouTube video by mr guns and gear about efiling and followed it step by step. Didn't have one issue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. But why???? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. I purchased my supressor from silencershop and they mailed the form 3 on 3/18 and the form 4 on 4/18 before the form 3 was cleared. Apparently they have cleared that method with the ATF. Hopefully that means I'm in line for the shortest wait. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. So even on my truck calling for 60 in front and 80 in the back I should run that with no load? That's the max the tire will take.
  14. I'll be able to back up for at least 150 yards or more from the back berm to shoot or sight in rifles. I actually have a longer 30 acre field to shoot rifle in as well. I'm mainly talking about the side berm depth to shoot handgun into at a 45 degree angle. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. I know the answer should be "the bigger the better" but in this case I want to build it big enough but no more than that. Sounds crazy right?   My current plan is to build it 20 yards wide and 30 yards deep. The deeper I make it the closer it will be to my driveway and I'd like a little space between the back berm and the drive.   Can anyone give me an idea of a normal distance of an outdoor pistol bay? Should be big enough to setup some good IDPA stages at this size. I walked the width distance off at a local range and it was roughly 18 or 19 yards but I neglected to walk the depth.
  16.     This is only a 10.5" barrel so the guard is like 10". It seems pretty solid too so hopefully that won't be an issue. I'm on the fence now about going with a nice set of fixed or folding irons for my primary of just running Magpul MBUS with a red dot. I just don't have any hands on experience with anything other than MBUS in order to make a decision.
  17. Well it's actually about 1/16" lower so I'm really thinking I shouldn't have a problem. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. Would 1/8" difference between the rail and upper reciever matter when dialing in iron sights? I know some railed gas blocks are lower but it's usually more than this.   I would think the front sight would have enough adjustment for this.
  19. Just thought i'd bump this again and add some info to it. I have the same barrel mentioned here and was told by Radical that they port it to .106. I also asked if the barrel was concentric and they confirmed it was but told me to still have it checked.    I am going to see how it does with subsonic ammo while I wait on the suppressor. Id prefer to not have to add an adjustable block but may do it anyways just so it runs smoother and cleaner.   As far as the concentric threads go I think I may just eyeball test that one when I get the suppressor.
  20. What a bunch of crap. Sometimes you have to give the people what they want. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Well I ended up with bfg ko2's. I looked at those and the coopers and really liked them both but they didn't have coopers in my size. I also got what I thought was a good deal on the bfg's and so far I'm happy. The vibration is gone from what I can tell. The truck rides like a log truck anyways so it's never gonna be a Cadillac ride but I couldn't take the shake. The tires do seem to have a little more give to them left to right at highway speeds but I assume that's just a softer compound in the sidewalk. I have also read that squirleyness may go away after a few hundred miles. I had a great experience with discount tire and feel like if I have problems they will take care of me. Only question I have now is what psi to run. They put 60 in the front and 80 in the back which is what the truck calls for with factory tires. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. I assume you have a level kit and aftermarket wheels? I was wanting a larger tire but can't seem to find any bigger with the 18" wheel that would fit stock.
  23. I am also interested in Toyo tires. Ram owners seem to say they are the best in ease of balancing.
  24. 2015 Ram 2500.   I had issues with vibrations at highway speeds when I first got the truck. Had them balanced and it went away. 10k miles later it's back. I had them balanced again today and it didn't go away.   The tires I have now are Firestone Transforce HT with 41k miles on them. Plenty of tread left but I;m tired of messing with them and am looking at going with something a little more aggressive anyways.    I like the looks of the BG KO2, the Nitto Terr Grappler and the Cooper Discover ATP.   I plan on going to Discount Tire and having whatever I get road force balanced. Anyone have any suggestions?   These will be Load Range E tires.
  25. Yep. Hard to beat bullseye. I load both .45 ACP and 9mm with it. Someone told me that BBI doesn't recommend titegroup with their rounds because it makes them smokey. Didn't come from the horses mouth though.
