Anyone Else Shooting .223Rem for Precision?
223 can go to 1k with the right bullet/powder. It's a fun, versatile round that does not break the bank or shoulder.

New Glock Model coming out 08/26/2017!!
I just googled the Glock 17M. All this excitement over a Glock that looks like a Glock? Odd.

I also have a 7twist 18" AR that runs the Berger 82gnHPBT's pretty well so far. I have to play with it. I have a "sled" in the mag for single round loading. I am really starting to appreciate shooting smaller calibers. They're a lot of fun and challenging for sure.

The RPR has a rail system similar to an AR (I'm sure you know that) and I imagine that's where the issue comes in. Personally I'd look at a set of rings as well as I don't see the need for a detachable mount on a precision gun. Although there are those that put awesome glass in a mount and use it on several different rifles (Cleckner covers it in his book). Again, not my cup of tea but to each their own. Lord knows the man can shoot.

With a 7 you can shoot 80 grain bullets if/when you start reloading. Probably 90's although some claim it's too slow of a twist. I'm shooting 77TMK out of my 8 twist Tikka and starting to get it dialed in. I finally got the 6-24 scope on her and she's doing well.

I like the setup minus the monopod. I have a sock stuffed with airsoft pellets and it works out to 750 (I've not been able to shoot further). It was, essentially, free. The canti mount isn't my bag but with the rail it may be a necessity. I've stepped away from chassis systems for several reasons with that being one of them. What twist is the RPR?

Remington 600 in .308
I got my bases from here: https://www.ironsighter.com/p-78.aspx?searchEngineName=remington-600-base I have inexpensive Weaver rings on the scope and for what I'm wanting they are perfect. Plus I had them already. I will post pics in a bit.

Are you loading for it? How did she shoot with the factory ammo? Any idea on what bullet/powder you're gonna run?

Remington 600 in .308
Great score. I paid just a touch less but mine isn't quite as pretty. As I said, I have a Weaver Classic 1-3 on mine so that if I ever get to hunt it, I'll be able to see what I'm shooting at. It's an absolute hoot of a rifle. Have fun with it.

Remington 600 in .308
I have one in 308. It's snappy (depending which load I decide to shoot) but I can ring the 100 yard gong at CR pretty easily with it and iron sights. I have a 1-3 Weaver on it which I think is the perfect scope for the rifle and will dial that in next time up there, hopefully in a couple of weeks. It's a great little carbine that I won't be selling anytime soon. 399 is a good price, condition dependent. Good luck with it.

Electrical Engineers/VFD Gurus-I Need Help
Everything that's supposed to be getting power is at the correct voltage. No Yes... At least according to the research I did. Hoping I didn't screw the pooch on that. I understand you not wanting to try it sideways. I wouldn't either. I am lucky enough to have some friends that may be able to step in and give me a hand with wiring all the switches. Just can't be in a rush, which I'm not.

I ran everything at the original owners home. Worked flawlessly. In my bit of research it looks like what I originally wanted to do (use the VFD to convert to 3ph and keep the switches as they are) isn't entirely possible. It looks like I will need to wire all the switches through the VFD. Which sucks for me as when I look at a schematic it looks like a nefarious bowl of evil spaghetti that wants to kill me. Been there. Doesn't work.

I have a Harrison M300. Westinghouse/TECO FM50 203-c 1ph to 3ph. I had an electrician that has experience wiring up VFD's come today and wire mine up. The VFD is getting power. I have it set at 60hz. Everything turns on and hums except the lathe. Panel---surge protector---VFD---outletWhen I turn everything on the lathe on and engage the "spindle control lever" the spindle/chuck jogs about a half inch and then... nada. No error codes. The meter on the front dips to 59hz and that's about it. Any ideas? Pics in the next post are to show basically how it was wired and equipment used.- 3rd Handgun Suggestions?
CZ 97B. 45 in a CZ. Some day I'll own one. I have several 1911's and I love them. You can't go wrong with one. Also, you can change the mainspring housing out to one that is arched to accommodate larger hands or go with a "bob-tail" or a "round-butt" which is not as sharp on the back corner. Or, grab another revolver in either 45ACP or 44Mag. I have a 625 and it's the most fun revolver I currently have. I love it. I'm working on a 44 which will be a Ruger Alaskan. Good luck.- Anyone Else Shooting .223Rem for Precision?
I'm currently shooting an older T3 Tac in .223 and it's a super fun gun to shoot. I am switching out the glass on it to a 6-24 HS-T Vortex in the next few days. Just a heads up, 223 can be competitive to 600 pretty easily and with good handloading practices, goes to 1k fairly well. Wind is a killer from what I hear but it's entirely doable.- Last One to Go?

I have an SP-01. It's the only semi-auto 9 that I'll own, excepting 1911's. It's just that good.- New from Bergen
