I have been doing gunsmithing on the side for 9 years. Still have to work on airplanes to pay bills. I make enough to support my gun habit. I bought the grizzly g4003g. If can do a lot and I can build accurate rifles with it. Just remember tooling will cost what th lathe does.

Re: AOW
How about 460 s&w. that way you can run 3 different calibers. 45 long colt, 454 cas, and 460
You could use same reamer for both.

Re: Is there an optimum number of baffles?
My understanding is the higher the pressure the more the gas works on its self. Why a 60 cone works well on rifles. The lower pressure rounds you have to have a baffle that works the gasses more like a K baffle.

I have seen where some refer to aggressive k's. what are they refering to? How big the scoop is. (When is to big bad) Does a big scoop move more air but at a slower velocity and does a smaller scoop more less air but at a higher speed. Scoop size compaired to bore size. About same size or little big...

Only 02/07 can replace parts. You can remove metal but can not replace parts or add more metal.

Re: Supressor for 300 blackout shooting subs
Do the clipped cones work better the a standard 60 cones? How much of the cone is removed?
How much better does a k work then a 60 cones.

Re: Supressor for 300 blackout shooting subs
If I list length at 10 and it comes out to be 8.5 can I amend the form or just leave it alone?
How many k's would be best? I want to make a flash supressor and a QD mount for it something like YHM.
Thanks for all the help
