What's your take on the BT bullets causing turbulance and possible baffle contact problems inside the can? Internet BS?

By the way what does it cost to have an FFL trust drawn up in Texas?

I know enough people shooting BT bullets suppressed that I think it's a problem with their equipment not the actual bullet but I'm far from an expert in the matter.

Cost me $200 to get my trust set up, which is a pretty good deal. Sean Cody charges an IMO ridiculous amount at $500. The guy that did mine was referred to me by the class III dealer I use for my FFL transfers. He may be able to do out of state ones if you want his contact info. Real nice guy for sure.

Got my grafs order in but they forgot my H4831
5k each of federal large pistol, large rifle, large magnum rifle primers and you can read the powders. Should have a well rounded arsenal of powder now to get started. The bag is 100 brass for the 500 S&W Mag.

$500 was the price I was quoted in AL. Which is why I have not gone forward. So yes, I would appreciate a lower cost option.

Since grafs forgot my H4831 I picked some up from Cabelas since they got a new shipment in. THey also happened to have some decent deals on bullets so I picked up some Hornadys for the 500. The 500gr bullets are beasts, ought to take care of hogs pretty good

Thats why you do a paper check before putting your suppressor on

load ammo, try it on paper from about 10-40yds.. if its nice round holes.. your good..
i use a cardboard box,, you can see if its close to unstable on the back peice of cardboard..


ive shot a bunch of 178, 190,210gr SMKs, and 208gr Amax subsonic thru my 308. works like a charm
we loaded 240gr SMKs in Jglowes 300BO, checked on paper and then put the can on..

How do those 240s do on animals? I like the sound of those big boys, should be about 600ftlbs at the muzzle subsonic

I used James Gade, he was very nice, quick and informative and the price was right at $200. Sean Cody is ridiculously priced, its not rocket science, you just need a good attorney to draw up the paperwork. The rest can be figured out with some simple searches on the internet.

Ive checked them out but wideners is a joke and powder valley is about on par with most other places. Im really interested in picking up some pulled 300 bullets for my 300BO build. Most are out of stock though on any decent deals.

Widenersseemed a better deal than midway, although shipping was the killer for midway.

lately I've been using a guy from arfcom, rocky mountain something. Pm me for his info.
