Cases getting stuck in chamber
Kingzero replied to 257wby's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Maybe the chamber or primary extraction not timed right. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=szy4HBg3q80 -
Don't skimp on the release agent and use good epoxy. There are some good videos on YouTube.

Worked over mil-spec trigger KNS trigger pins Mil-spec buffer tube Aimpoint ACO Let me know if you want to know anything else.

It's a custom I built on a Quarter Circle 10 Glock pattern lower. It has a 5.5" barrel so this is a SBR with all the NFA trimmings. I am extremely happy with it and it is more accurate than I anticipated. This is a 7 shot group at 50 yards with iron sights.

I got hit for elk on a Desert Schools card. It showed up under the pending menu.

PRGC Hunting Rifle Shoot Nov 13th
Kingzero replied to Mike S's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Im going to try and make this one. Sounds like a good time. -
Contact Mr. Silencer like said above. Bruce is very knowledgeable and will answer any questions you have. If you have a good dealer then the whole process should be simple and straight forward. What you get all depends on your wants and needs, and how much will depend on what suppressor meets those wants and needs. If you want light weight, then titanium is the way to go but you will pay for it. If you want a quick detach design then it will cost more than a direct thread. I would take a serious look a the ThunderBeast Ultra series........very nice cans and are designed with accuracy being the main focus. I forgot wait time.....not sure right now but I just pickes up my Octane 45 two weeks ago and the wait was 5 months. Along with the new laws regarding finger prints and photos, I believe you also have to notify the chief LEO of your purchase. How that notification works is still a mystery.

Decided that the black and stainless was a little too bland so I ordered some Cerakote and this is the result. The chassis is Noveske Bazooka Green and the barreled action is Magpul FDE.

Just Cerakoted my bolt gun.
Kingzero replied to Kingzero's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
I ordered all the parts and Long Rifles Inc. did the barrel work. With the suppressor and a full 10 round AW mag it is around 15.5 pounds. -

You have to blast it off with 100 or 120 grit aluminum oxide and then paint your new color. -

Kingzero replied to Kingzero's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Yep, did it myself. I have done a handful of other things, but this was my first bolt action. I'm going to do my Tikka next.....I just need to decide on the color. -
I already did.

High Volume 223/556 reloading
Kingzero replied to n2horns's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
I have a Hornady LNL progressive. I only load 223 for hunting coyotes so I don't usually do a bunch at a time. However, I loaded 1000 rounds of 9mm a couple weeks ago and had them done in about 7 hours. -
Good place to start and what's it worth?
Kingzero replied to codyhuntsaz's topic in Long Range Shooting
If you want to get into shooting long range and be half way decent then you need to practice.....especially if you intend to take game at distance. Practice means shooting and 300 wsm would be a little pricy. If you are ok with that then rock on....it sounds like a good starting point. Another option would be to start with a 308, 6.5 Creedmoor or even a 223 if you can find one with atleast an 8 twist barrel. These have good options for factory match ammo and will be easier on the wallet. Also.....I would not flute a factory barrel. A heavier rifle is more forgiving when trying to reach out there. The weight savings from fluting is minimal and would hardly be noticeable when packing a rifle. The cost to benefit ratio isn't worth it in my opinion. -
They are still an NFA regulated item. Game and Fish legalized hunting with suppressors a couple years ago.

This is the type of stands I make......

Always nice to hear when a terrorist looses his head. The DAN .338 is a rifle manufactured by IWI (Israeli Weapon Industries). http://www.tactical-life.com/firearms/israel-weapon-industries-dan-338-bolt-action-sniper-rifle/#israel-weapon-industries-dan-338-bolt-action-sniper-rifle-left

I have a Tikka T3 Superlite in 7mag and had Phoenix Custom Rifles install a Badger Thruster brake.....best thing ever! It recoils like my old 260 and if I pay attention to form I can spot hits at 300 yards on steel. I know steel and flesh are different, and in the heat of the moment you may not be able to confirm a hit at distance on an animal but it will help you get back on target faster. If you want to read some cool and interesting info on brakes then check out these links. I know most of these brakes are geared towards tactical competition rigs, but some can be used on the smaller contour barrels of hunting rifles. For anyone on the fence, I would look strongly at the American Precision Arms lineup of brakes. http://precisionrifleblog.com/2015/08/21/muzzle-brake-summary-of-field-test-results/ http://precisionrifleblog.com/2015/08/12/muzzle-brake-blast-ground-signature/ http://precisionrifleblog.com/2015/07/25/muzzle-brakes-ability-to-stay-on-target/ http://precisionrifleblog.com/2015/08/07/muzzle-brakes-sound-test/

I had the most interesting stand over the weekend. While hunting a new area we got turned around and ended up back at a spot we already called. It was getting late and we only had time for two more stands so we decided to call that spot again since it didn't produce anything earlier. As we drive in to hide the truck I see a bobcat duck into some thick brush. I tell my buddy to stop and back up, and he backs up running tree branches down the side of the truck......SCREEEEEEEECH. We exit the truck with me shaking my head trying not to smack him. We push into a small clearing with maybe 15 yards of visibility and I hang my call in a small tree. As I am getting ready to start the call, someone rolls up behind us in a diesel and parks. After a couple minutes of listening to them talk over the sound of that idling diesel they finally back out and head off. By now im figuring this is a waste of time but im already set up so I start the call. I have a sound that has worked well for cats so I start with that on a low volume. Not 2 minutes into calling and we hear gunshots in the field next to us. Geeezzzzzz.......what else can happen. I continue to call and bump the volume a little and then catch movement to my left. A bunch of quail pop out and fart around in a small opening. I watched them for a couple seconds and then look back to my right and see the cat sitting there looking into the tree with the call. I slowly swung my rifle his way and settled the crosshairs just as he looked at me. Bang......flop. He weighed in at 19.7 lbs.

Got this big guy yesterday. Should have 2 more but we won't talk about that.

Sweet setup. I bet it shoots as good as it looks.

I participated in my first coyote calling competition last weekend. My buddy Dustin signed us up for the South Eastern Arizona Coyote Calling Challenge. I think there were 29 teams and we got 4th with 5 coyotes. First and second tied with 9 and third had 6 coyotes. I decided to run the shotgun on the first day and that turned out to be a mistake. Had a couple dogs hang up just outside of shotgun range and would have possibly killed them if I had my rifle. Had fun BS'ing with the other hunters and won a 40 quart Grizzly cooler at the raffle. I think the total killed was 63 coyotes.
