    300 BO, 6.5 G, or 6 ARC?

    These cartridges aren't anything like each other: 300 BLK subs are basically a 45 ACP round with a much higher BC that gives 45 ACP velocity for several hundred yards. Supers are basically 7.62x39, (7.62x39 is a terrible choice for this application due to bolt lugs failing. Super fun gun but...

    Teaching kids how to look through the scope and understand the reticle.

    Length of pull is definitely big. I tried starting my daughter off on a Ruger 10/22 with a scope, but then I got her an AR pistol with a 9" barrel and a Trijicon MRO. I SBR'd the AR, made a form 1 can for it and put a Kahles K16i on it. It's a great little rifle that's grown with her from...

    My daughter is cross-eye dominant. Figuring that out helped a lot. A paper print out of the reticle will help a lot.

    Need help with Hornady 178 ELD-M for 308.

    Just came in to post that twist rates are given in "Rotations" per "Length of Barrel". A "12 twist" is slower than a "10 twist". The "10 twist" will rotate 1 & 1/6th times in 12 inches compared to once for a "12 twist". Hope that helps.

    8.6 Blackout build. First round, no ejection

    I'd wait to manipulate your gassing on a gun with a cartridge that is intended to be run suppressed 100% of the time until your can arrives. You might have a perfect setup already and be dooming yourself to further struggle.

    Swarovski Z5 5-25x52 BT question

    Non-BT models have turrets that will go stop to stop 43" @ 100 yds for elevation.

Make sure you use "SMOA" in your calculator...
