I have a mini 14 - 186 series GB model and wanted to put a can on it. So i ordered a Hughes Precision adapter in 9/16 ×24 to ½ x 28. This is not my 1st can or project and I have over 50 years experience with firearms including cans and class 3. I have always checked alignment with a rod and visually b4 firing any can, since my 1st purchase many years ago. The adapter was installed just past hand tight with a lite amount of rock-set and allowed to cure for a week. Checked alignment with a 22 caliber rod and visually checked. Fired a shot checked the can for tightness and fired a few more shots as I was zeroing a red dot. Checked can to adapter again and snugged it with my hand (I use silicon can covers). Fired a few more shots and checked the can to ensure no walk. Then fired 3 shots and my can fell off the gun! 1st thing I thought was baffle strike, but there was none. look at the attached picks and its obvious theres an issue with the adapter. I reached out to Hughes precision and simply asked for a full refund providing pictures. Instead of a thank you for reaching out and letting us know I get treated like crap and get a partial refund on a defective item with only 14 shots fired. This post is for Tina at Hughes precision who wouldn’t refund my shipping fee, bless her heart! Didn’t offer me an apology, a replacement nada!

I have a gen 1 Ruger American hunter with the bull 20” barrel. I’m not sure if I should keep shooting the 147’s or change to the slightly lighter 140 for long range shooting 800-1000. Since my barrel is only 20” I don’t know if going down in bullet weight will be better or not to get it going a little faster and actually make a difference. With the 147’s there coming out at an average of 2320…

I have a Herter’s J9 Mauser action in 22-250, I have purchased a Leupold VX Freedom 6-18×40 CDS 30mm and WARNE Maxima 2 piece bases M902/828M with WARNE Maxima QD scope rings #216LM, My question is, will this setup work on the J9. I have not installed yet and would greatly appreciate any in put you may have. Thanks in advance

A very rare trigger assembly from Arnold Jewell.

I just installed a new TriggerTech competitive fixed 3 lb trigger. Very first dry fire it felt like an 8 oz pull. After a few tries it still feels way lighter than a 3 lb pull. Any ideas?

Does anyone know if automatic transmission fluid will work as gun lube in a pinch

I have several 100 rounds of Hornady TAP 308 brass if anyone is interested.

Vision Pro Chassis with a TIKKA Tac A1 inside, gonna pull 2LBS and get it down to 18LBS
