Give a range report on those please.

I picked up a XD 45 today and put a box of ammo through it. It is a soft shooter; double taps were effortless

 

[DadSmith]

Give a range report on those please.

I've been wondering about them also. I haven't seen any locally so haven't had a chance to try them. Which I like to do before buying hundreds of rounds.

 

[BoilerWes]

New knife…

 

[88E30M50]

I ordered 500 200g .45 bullets for a batch of .45 Colt cowboy loads I am working on.

"Those" being the ammo or the talkies?

I've been using the Frontier .223 HP exclusively for 6 months or so. Frontier is a division of Hornady. Very pleased with them. Been picking them up for about $11 per box of 20. Accuracy is good. Zero failures after 500-600 rounds. I've run them in an 11.5" Springfield, a 10.5" Palmetto State and my 10.5" Noveske. Every gun ate them up equally well. I might add I'm using these for training at home defense distances. I have no idea how they perform at 50+ yards.

The talkie unit is a very easy to attach. The menu is simple, intuitive and provides numerous settings. Volume control provides more than enough loudness. I actually turned both pair down to the lowest level and voice was still easily discernable. VOX activated has a 1 sec, (more or less) delay to come on and to shut off. I'm thinking that will keep gunshots from triggering the headset. For my use, PTT is probably what I'll utilize more often. Sunday I'll be taking them out for a range run through. Plan on testing clarity and power at distance- 80 yards or so. Updates Coming!

Both. What grain ****. 223?

I have some of the 68gr 5.56, but have only shot a few rounds out of one of my rifles so far.

Are the walkie talkie adapters clear?

The Frontier ammo: .223 55gr. HP

The talkies reception and transmission is crystal clear. BUT, I've only tried them out at 50' indoors

 

[duanewade]

200 rounds of .45 LC 255 grain LRN for $154. Should be good plinking ammo

that's a good looking pistol. the ARs have changed so many times over the last 40 yrs. i bought my AR rifle over 40 yrs ago an it looks so plain and old looking compared to these snazzy looking AR variants of today. 300 blackout is a nice bullet.

I also have a monstrum 3x prism scope (not this exact model) and it seems pretty decent. The only issue was that the screws holding the scope to the picatinny mount were not tightened down enough when it arrived, so they worked themselves loose after a bit. I added locktite and tightened them down myself, and it's been solid ever since.

that's the same issue i had. @jwamplerusa tried to help me zero it and just kept getting worse. i took it home and realized the mounting screws were loose. i'll make sure they're tight before i mount it this time
