    NRL Hunter

    I've shot a couple of NRL Hunter matches, and think this is a shooting sport that I'd like to stick with. I really like the people and the vibe, and the gear is breathtaking. Having to find, range,...

    Fantastic information, thank you! I should be able to get the tests notes above once I have me hands on the gun early next week. I will be sure to report back!

    I keep my 9K hooked onto a 9mm delayed-blowback SBR. Gas is there and noticeable, I'm still happy with it. A tough can- it will take 300BLK in both sub and super, if I remember correctly.

    I wonder if a MCX bolt face in 7.62x39 could get you to a Grendel? A $3k base gun sure makes that seem like an expensive experiment. I'd love to see a shootoff against Ruger Mini14;)

    Yes, absolutely a loss of sight radius from a Centurion or other form of 92-short slide makes for a poorer bullseye gun.

    Nice guns!

    I kinda love how carry-comps were originally "before my time" and now they have become "of my time".

    Can we persuade you to post those lovelies into the 1911 Photo Gallery thread?
