I ordered my stock when there was none available, then "all of a sudden" (a few months...) it appeared in stock and was billed and shipped.

Anyone have any experience with faster twists on shorter barrels? Like 1in5" on 5-7" barrels?

I ordered mine when it was presage, then it went out of stock, now its up for sale again... They had reported they would be shipping in November, haven't had any emails from them since the order. I'm curious when they'll actually ship.
ETA- I had the 6" barrel made, the fellow explained in great detail why the 1:8 was better and why he used those blanks over the 1:7. To shorten the explanation slightly he said the 1:8 was stable enough for silencer use, but all the hunting threads where people don't understand why they don't have any massive wounds it's just a through and through as if shooting FMJ. Besides the fact that most ammunition doesn't expand at subsonic velocity he said the 1:7 caused the bullets to be too stable, and the original idea behind 300 whisper was to have a bullet that tumbled on impact. The 1:7 stopped the tumble from taking place where the 1:8 would allow it. |

The 1:7 stopped the tumble from taking place where the 1:8 would allow it. While that sounds good in theory, it only makes sense if one is using non-expanding subsonic rounds, and in which case, the 1x8 might allow the heavier subs to tumble, causing a greater wound channel rather than poking a hole. But if your shooting expanding subs (usually expensive, exotic, etc.), you do not want them to tumble, as it will likely not allow the bullet to expand as designed, hence shooting 220gr, 240gr and up expanding subs with a 1x7. Stability is key in that scenario as it will keep the bullet driving forward as intended, thereby allowing it to expand properly. that's my take on it and it worth what you paid for it. |

Calling again for which BARREL TWIST I should order? Sources close to the real "Project" hint me that they're running 1:5. I will be shooting both subs and supersonic, but I guess more subs than other. 1:7. You've had your answer a few times. 1:7 is plenty fast enough to keep the bully 7.62 bullet stable at impressive distances, especially with the faster burning .300blk powders - even with the shorter barrels. Im on page two, gonna catch up. I love the Honey Badger, it's just sexy. Welcome to 'Merica and say hi to the NSA. Eta: I see this is older than I noticed at first. That lower looks slick. It looks like you are going the surpressed route, what all does that entail for you? 1:8 isn't bad, I happen to be a 1:7 guy. I believe all my .30 rifles and AR pistol are all 1:7 so it could be bias. I'm liking what I see here and I think 2014s shopping list might have just changed a bit.

I'm thinking i probably won't get my sotck 12/5 seeing as it's now 12/3 and they still haven't billed my card. Like someone else said i will probably find in a few months the card has been billed and then it shows up :). Would be helpful to know though. If i haven't heard anything by january i will drop them an email asking.

Just picked up the upper. It really is short and handy. Very happy now.
Looking forward to putting all the things together, but still missing some parts. The barrel looks really nice and high quality, fat and black one. German quality Thinking it was the right way to go for 7,5" instead of 6". |

my stock is evidently stuck in some kind of border purgatory between the US and Canada. It is showing as in transit both Canada post and US post service say it was supposed to be delivered today (via website). However the canadian site is saying it has left canada (and indeed did so several days ago). The US site is saying it's still there. At this point i'm beginning to think my stock ran off to the bahamas for christmas. Ah well i'm sure it will get here at some point.

Tis what I get for juggling magazines... I had a small handful of 220 remingotn subtonics in one mag, at least I thought I did, and the other was 125 OTM supers.
I may give it one last try, I was shooting an SDN-6 IMO AAC cans are military reduction grade aimed at longevity and slower heat build up; rather than a civilian oriented can, AAC lacks the numerous baffles and volume to aid in reduction that some companies have i.e liberty. With that said, I have no idea what a real HB silencer is made of, I just know it doesn't appear to be a QD can and it seems to have a larger diameter (more volume) than any of AACs production cans. I wish I had video of it, in person it was nothing like the HB videos i've seen, could have all been supersonic though. |

Having been around some suppressed .300's with SDN-6's, the loudest thing when shooting subs is the bullet hitting the berm/target.

The muzzle pressures are up there on the short brls & the can will have a hard time dealing with it. There are ways to help with this if you reload. |

Well, the sound of a rifle shot doesn't transfer very good from something like an iPhone via YouTube anyway.

Yes, I was charged a COD as well... to the tune of $40 some dollars and if you paid with a C.Card, expect a fee for purchasing out of country. the stock was expensive to say the least if I could do it again, I would opt for the LWRC Ultra Compact stock for sub $150. it's way more comfortable when shouldering or shooting the rifle and it gives you more eye relief, but it is not as compact... meh...
