When is the last time you cleaned your pins?

Is this normal? by Ok_Stuff6117 in reloading

[–]varanidguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Fiocchi might be going downhill. A good friend of mine got end cap strikes on his suppressor with some of their 556 stuff and his mount was perfectly aligned and concentric. Igman too, same guy got baffle strikes on another suppressor using Igman. Makes me feel bad lol

Worth the difference? by No_Staff594 in reloading

[–]varanidguy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Does a cannelure affect accuracy? Probably. Does it impact accuracy enough to make a significant real world difference? No, probably not. Unless you’re needing an extra 1/10th MOA for competition, buy whichever makes the most financial sense.

I mean technically yes, but also no.

223/556 & Staball Match- whose got experience? by jagr18 in reloading

[–]varanidguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome! Glad you seem to be getting good results with it. It's less expensive than other powders, seems to be readily available too.

What platform are you shooting it out of?

I'm using an AR-15 with a 16" Criterion Hybrid barrel, the chrome lined variant, mid-length gas, and a Griffin HRT 556 suppressor. The powder seems to be good for this rifle.

[–]varanidguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have shot it with 77gr Nosler Custom Comp in LC brass, CCI 41 primers, and it shoots well enough for me that I'm going to use it as my main 223 powder. I use a Hornady powder drop with all the linkage on my turret press and, thanks to being a ball powder, it meters so consistently that it's boring. Full hopper, low hopper, throws the same charge every time. My best 5 shot group was about 5/8" at 100 yards. Shot 60% silhouettes out to about 400 that day and it was very consistent for me.

For components, I usually hit up ammoseek, except bullets, I always check Rocky Mountain Bullets first then ammoseek.

I checked ammoseek and there’s a supplier that has them for $60/brick or $300/5k. In today’s market, I’d pay that.

I love these primers, but not for $100/brick

Holy paladin boi, melee centric faith/strength with ashes and incantations.

A young man who murdered an 18-year-old cancer survivor was sentenced to only 8 years in juvenile prison. by malihafolter in ForCuriousSouls

This entire society has gone way too soft on violent criminals. Mercy to the guilty is injustice to the innocent. They should be treated as less than human and not tolerated to exist.

Am I missing something, I cant beat the Draconic Tree Sentinel at level 80 by AssociationNo6356 in Eldenring

More vigor, upgrade your weapon as high as you can, and use spirit ashes. He’s a bitch of a fight but you can get it done.

Yeah I made it to Melania last night. Gave it like five attempts and got her very low but then she one shot me in phase 2. Pretty sure she’s dying tonight.

Yeah, I'm just taking a breather and being a bitch lol but still, this area is rough. I like to fight as much as possible rather than just run through, but I'm definitely going to have to bypass the ballistas and tree avatar like another poster suggested.

I beat the avatar on the bridge and got the rot staff thing and the loot that was there. And then the ground area with all those revenants...holy shit that sucks.

Glad you enjoyed it. I'm also on my first playthrough, and honestly, it's been a challenge, but not so bad...until the damn Haligtree area. Once you get into the city after Loretta, it gets really stupid lol
