Re: kinda off topic 9mm question
that just might be the way to go. I used to shoot 158 swc's (which were 162gr lubed and sized) and they were quiet and hit hard from my old hi-point 9mm (pre suppressor days) May have to order up a blank and give it a try with those 200's. I have QL so I can use that to find a starting load. I remem...

Re: kinda off topic 9mm question
I guess if you don't mind a literal rainbow trajectory. You won't get anywhere near 900 FPS without having nuclear chamber pressures. 950 with a 158 gr. is fairly spicy. I think you'd be lucky to see 500 FPS without pressure signs. Remember, it's not just weight increasing resistance, but also bear...

kinda off topic 9mm question
So I was goofing around yesterday at lunch and decided to stuff one of my homemade cast bullets into a 9mm case just for kicks....then I got to playing with QL and was surprised of what I found. This monster 354gr bullet can actually get semi respectable speeds according to QL ~880-950 FT/sec from s...

Re: 30cal Integral Bolt Rifle Build UPDATE 4/25/2019
hmm. how about spinning up a new tube in 7.62x25 tokarev :D both different and more efficient for your purposes. I buy most of my bullets from here. shipping sucks unless you make a worthy order which is what I do a few times a year. http://www.shootersproshop.com/nosler-products/nosler-blemished-2n...

Re: 30cal Integral Bolt Rifle Build UPDATE 4/25/2019
Being a bolt gun and a suppressed one to boot wouldn't you want the fastest and least amount of powder to maximize or better yet minimize the amount of gasses needed to be cooled? Trail boss would fit the bill nicely and also fills up the case pretty well. Red dot is fairly bulky and would also work...

Re: Recore with clipped radial baffles
Nice! looking forward to what the 165 9mm brings. I take it xtreme bullets? been wanting to try them myself.
Have you tried K's before? That's my plan on my 9mm can as I don't have the tooling to cut radials. and I want to do a scratch build.

Re: 45 Cal Suppressor Design Review
some very cool designs. on the last design I would think it would work better if you went back to the spacer that sealed the vanes on the blast baffle then have that spacer ported in an angled helix pattern like ECCO's muzzle brake shown a few posts up. otherwise your blast chamber volume would be m...

I take it you probably ported the barrel for the rear chamber like you discussed in your other thread?

Re: Tube thickness questions
Use stainless for the tube and internals then weld it up. Or do a tubeless design. You could go thinner by using stainless if weight is a issue. There is a thread here somewhere of a members first build if I am not mistaken, he used 4130 for the tube and welded it. It has survived many years and he...

Re: I need help with a form 1 question on the blast chamber
I think you'll find that most of us here build our own. The maglight (b,c,d) tubes aren't very common. the 24 tpi options from diversified machine and the like are a better suited to most builds. I could be wrong but the main reason you won't see direct thread adapters like that here is why not run ...

YA, i may thin out the outer tube just to shave some weight. I was planning a 1" blast chamber. Is that ok? should i shrink or enlarge that? 603SS is the same a 17-4PH. The mill i work at makes it so i kind of have an unlimited supply. 630SS maybe? if you have an unlimited supply you can kick ...
