Gearhead works “one”
Not sure if still in production or not. |

Does a gas-less side-charging AR count as a boot action?

Are there any other manufactureres that build guns like that, maybe at a little less than the 2.4k for the CA ? |

I'll probably go with either a Magpul or Atlas, for my MPP. That grip is a cool piece, too. I've got a Fortis Mfg Torque carbon fiber pistol grip, on order. |

I love these guns and really wanted one. However, I have not yet been able to come up with a use that isn't already covered by something else I own.
Small rifle caliber? Rattler. Small PCC? Flux Glock. Cheap quiet plinking? savage 22 with cans and sub. the spy/assassin movie fan in me loves them, but for the life of me I can't figure out why I "need" one. As soon as I come up with a reason though I'll get one. Seems like it would make an amazing hunting rifle in places that are either no semi-auto or have a different pistol and rifle season. But I don't hunt |

I just wrapped this goofy SOB up, and I love it. 285 grain subsonics are hilarious. I got them down to under 700 FPS before they no longer stabilize. Going to try some 185 Lapua open tips for supers, see how that goes. It has a Harris mounted to a 7" MDT Arca rail, but it didn't balance nicely for the picture |

The 17.5" blank was chopped squarely in half, finished barrel length is about 8.5" I didn't feel like offsetting the tailstock and turning a taper contour, so I turned the barrel down to 1.165" (just under receiver diameter) and cut a big 'ole 4 pitch ball thread to shed some weight. Reminds me of the Type 99 or DSHK barrels. Threaded for my Rex MG7K with 9mm bore. Initial test firing was done with Norma Oryx bonded soft points, but I have some Hornady 250GMX and Nosler 286gr flat point solids to try as well. It's been a super easy cartridge to fire form. Just neck up, load to the lands, and shoot. The 7.62 case has more body taper than the 9x39, so there's not really a shoulder when you resize. Attached File |

Cool deal. That caliber intrigues me and when the Wolf started coming in I looked into it a bit but it got hosed by Covid shortages like so many others. I hope we see more domestic options. Any weirdness getting it to feed?

Has anyone necked up a 6.5 Creedmoor case to .338?
I know about the .338 federal but hear me out. I have a ton of 6.5 brass and just because it doesn’t make sense to do doesn’t mean its not fun just to do it. I have a virgin bighorn origin action and a older XLR chassis that has the old modular tube setup. I’m a shouldered prefit away from a diy pistol. Necking up the 6.5C just seems like something that would upset the Fudds. .338 Manbun Thumper Seriously doing a .338 federal as a subsonic pistol has crossed my mind. 300 grain SMK would have decent reach I’d think. .750 BC under 1800 fps is what’s advertised Edit Looks like the 8.6 Creedmoor is already a thing. |

Yup the new 8.6 Blackout is pretty close. It’s not just a neck up though I’m pretty sure it’s shortened a bit to allow those long ass 338 bullets

What started with me being sarcastic may actually be a cool pistol round. I didn’t get around to mentioning it, but what I’d really like is a 9mm bolt action pistol with a length appropriate action. I’m not sure how much demand there would be. It would be a very cool suppressor host with 147 subs. The draw would be cheap to shoot especially if reloading. |

I totally agree that a dedicated 9mm sized or just pistol caliber sized action would be pretty cool. Something like a toggle or straight pull with high cap mags would be fantastic.
