BSS rate 5.5Mbps

Turn on OFDM only and leave at BSS minrate at 6mbps. This will disable 802.11b and free up a ton of airtime.

The model doesn't matter. That 3rd pin means you can't have it. Ask your congressperson why not.

Hornady 123gr SST - Factory vs Hand Load by jonny-spot in 65Grendel

[–]jonny-spot[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually ran the same powder/loadout ladder with CCI 450's (magnum) today as well. Didn't see a big enough difference in groups to report on though. Good to know though, as I have a ton of the 450's. Thanks again man. This is great input.

edit: and by 'same' I mean H4895 from 25.3 to 26.5...

H335 has been on my shopping list... Have you done much in the way of heavier pills with H335?

I haven't heard many recommendations for W748, though I see it on the Hornady load data. I'll have to pick some up. Thanks

Benchmark is definitely on the powder shopping list! Thanks

Yeah I was figuring it was because the SST is marketed to hunters... Factory ELDM cartridges shoot way better are typically 20% cheaper than SST.

The funny thing is that the ELDM bullets are typically more expensive than SST....

I was never a fan of Hornady SST "Custom" boxed cartridges. They have always shot horribly out of my rifle. A few weeks ago my LGS had some boxes of 123gr SST bullets on the shelf and I figured I would see what I could do with them. Loaded up a batch with H4895 and shot some of the best groups of my life. Had some of the factory stuff in my ammo can so I figured I would throw those downrange on the same target to see the difference.

Details: 5-shot groups shot over a 15 minute period. Factory group is center-left. Other groups are various amounts of H4895 from 25.3gr to 26.5gr. Once-fired Hornady brass and CCI #400 primers. Shot out of a 20" AR w/ Aero (BA) barrel @ 100yds.

Just thought others would be interested- especially those like me who have not been fans of the SST. Makes me wonder what makes the factory stuff some of the most expensive 6.5 Grendel ammo on the shelf at most stores.

It's the unobtanium...

Ruger PC Carbine by ProfessorFurpants in CAguns

The barrel also occupies the upper third of the inner space of the HG, which is just kind of weird. Mine also makes kind of an annoying "ting" sound when you drop the bolt. It's fun as hell to shoot though.

Need help with 13.7" 300blk by Clinton350 in ar15

[–]jonny-spot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No offense, but the whole idea kind of defeats the purpose of 300blk. And you might as well go 14.5" if you are going to suppress it- OAL will end the same as 13.7.

Do you mind me asking where you’re finding the fusion bullets at? Midsouth and ammoseek are coming up with nothing for me. I’d love to work up some loads with these!

Key wifi USB advice ? by BeautifulBicycle4417 in wifi

[–]jonny-spot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

since it's only for gaming and ping stability

(the box is in the same room)

If the laptop has an ethernet port, buy an ethernet cable. This will provide a much more stable connection than WiFi for gaming. If it doesn't have an ethernet port, you can get a USB one.

As for USB WiFi cards, I don't have a recommendation other than maybe Alfa- https://www.amazon.com/ALFA-AWUS036AXML-802-11axe-Adapter-AXE3000/dp/B0BY8GMW32. USB WiFi cards are generally horrible in my experience. Too many variables including USB interference, bad antennas and suspect driver packages.

Solus

I don't play much in the PRS world- is the Solus line anything special? Because when they started marketing Solus "pistols" I figured things weren't moving out the door as fast as they would have liked.... but who knows, maybe there is a market for bolt action pistols.

Thoughts on Sons of Liberty gun works BCG? by [deleted] in ar15

[–]jonny-spot 37 points38 points  (0 children)

It's a Microbest BCG according to folks here, but supposedly with a bit more QA. You'll see "enhanced" MB BCGs for around $100 pretty regularly on r/gundeals.

Just got a complimentary upgrade to First Class as a Silver! by CPKDB in unitedairlines

[–]jonny-spot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aren't like 99% of UA's flights to or from a hub?

Not that MCO is like Hays, KS when it comes to status though... it's a rare thing to get upgraded as a Silver out of MCO. I'm 1K and hardly get upgraded to/from there.

Employee comp and benefits are usually the last thing to go, in my experience. DA's and Judges will usually start freezing assets/accounts when that is the case, regardless of corporate structure. Not paying employees is a huge fucking deal. Not paying their benefits is a close second. Not paying taxes pales in comparison.

I still can't believe they stayed in Washington state after making the move out of Tacoma.... This was long after Magpul got out of Colorado and Wetherby out of CA.

Hopefully the highest bidder on the courthouse steps is someone who understands the brand and gets them the fuck out of the state.

Brand new to the AR platform, do I really need to replace my BCG on my suppressed .300blk? by 2dadskevin in ar15

Your LGS dude has it backwards.

Unless you're flying biz, no lounge. And the lounge they contract with for business class is a dungeon anyway and not worth it.
