    Suppressors and pressure

    I recently (2 days ago) got a diligent defense LTI, my first can. I went shooting today and noticed that both my 7 SAUM and my 6.5 creed were showing pressure signs. Ammo was not left in the sun, rifles were in my air conditioned truck, and neither of these loads have shown pressure in the...

    Building a rifle stock

    The method I’m using is quite slow but it’s working well for me. I’m using scrapers (like curved chisels) and the Jerry fisher large scraper. @Decker9 has a better method than I it seems. However this being my first one I was being super careful not to remove too much material.

    Building a rifle stock

    Currently most of the way through I letting the barrel and action. Has taken a pause due to me reassembling the rifle in the old stock for some shoots and a suppressor that just cleared to try it on. Will update with photos tonight.

    Potential new build questions - 7 Saum/300 WSM/6.5 prc

    My main rifle is a 7 SAUM built on an origin short action with a proof 24 inch tube. It’s shooting 180 hybrid targets at 2920. The only think I’d change about it is a shorter barrel for suppressing it. I love it though, I’d have no qualms about shooting anything including moose or brown bear...

    Reload or factory ammo?

    Running the numbers is what caused this question. For my 7 SAUM I can get 75ish rounds from a pound of powder ($50), 75 bullets ($57), 75 primers (7.50). That isn’t counting ADG brass which I bought at a premium mid COVID at 130 bucks per 50 ($520 total) or redding match dies. so $1.52 per...

    Reload or factory ammo?

    Now I haven’t shot a ton of factory ammo by any means. I’d say 97 percent of what I’m shot my entire life has been reloads. However, what have shot from the Hornady match ammo and the Berger ammo has been good. In my mind if I buy it by the case and just understand that my ES and SD will be...

    Reload or factory ammo?

    At this point in time factory ammo is pretty available (less so as we close in on the election) bulk 6.5 creedmoor, prc ammo is about 1.60 to 2.00 a round. I reload all my ammo but with the significant increases in components cost including time I’m curious if anyone has changed from reloading...

    Bipod Opinions

    I like my atlas and I just swap it between rifles but I’m considering going no bipod and just practicing more off a pack, tripod, and shooting sticks. For hunting that is.

    Diligent Defense Enticer L-Ti??

    @Ryan Avery did you get the can yet?

    So, you went smaller caliber, but not down to .223…

    I’ve been shooting a 7 SAUM for the last couple years and a 300 win mag before that. I recently picked up a 6.5 creed tikka that I enjoy and may hunt with it but I’m so attached to my SAUM that it’s unlikely. When this barrel is gone in the next year or so it’ll be going to a 6.5 SAUM and the...

    Not directly answering your question but Bauer precision has a couple S-ti in stock. Just ordered my LTI while waiting for a polonium.
