The Loadout Room
Professional Gear Reviews
From the number 1 brand in handgun ammunition, Federal is proud to introduce new Syntech Defense. These loads produce dynamic terminal performance with a hollow-point bullet that separates into three segments and a deep-penetrating core on impact. Shipments of Syntech Defense ammunition have been delivered to dealers. The original Syntech changed the range forever. Now, […]
I’m far from a Luddite in terms of guns. I love new technology and love seeing companies push the bounds when it comes to using different materials, bucking the norm, or just trying something new. The Chiappa Rhino is an awesome example of what works. Is the Omni Hybrid Lower Receiver an example of what […]
Today I’m doing a quick review on the new Radian Raptor Limited Edition Multicam Black charging handle and ambidextrous safety selector. Radian put this limited edition bundle out at a higher price point than their other Raptor charging handles to support the 2nd amendment in Oregon. All proceeds went to organizing the Defend the 2nd […]
Ultradyne, an American designer and manufacturer of advanced shooting accessories, has officially released the innovative X1 tunable muzzle brake specifically calibrated for .223 /5.56. The X1 enables the user to optimize barrel movement regardless of shooting technique, individual stature, or ammunition. The X1’s patent-pending Dual-Axis Door System is adjustable to accurately meter out the right […]
While many online have spend considerable time debating the merits and demerits of bump stocks, one of the quickest ways to reductio ad absurdum (reduce to absurdity) the anti-bump stock argument is to point out that a talented shooter with a properly tuned rifle can exceed both the rate-of-fire and lethality generated by a bump stock […]
Pistol braces (or stabilizing braces) are still a relatively new product, debuting in 2013. Consider it a testament to their utility and popularity. In just five short years, they have gone from dwelling in an extreme niche to being featured on firearms from nearly every major manufacturer. For today’s review, we go back to the […]
Rifles, optics, plate carriers and more: we at Loadout Room test and review a wide variety of gear. Sometimes though, we like to sit back and watch shit blow up. While I’m excitedly working on this week’s reviews, I currently have exactly zero .50 BMG chambered rifles, armor-piercing-incendiary-tracer (APIT) rounds, or even a nice little […]
Ideal and then Lyman handbooks have been the reloaders’ best source of reloading data for over 100 years. Lyman pioneered the concept of delivering a wide range of components to use in generating safe, accurate loads. Reloading is fun and much cheaper than factory ammo. You may even get a more accurate and reliable round. […]
Just wrapped up watching the new Highwaymen movie on Netflix. The movie is about the two former Texas Rangers who brought down Bonnie and Clyde. I wouldn’t necessarily call it an action movie, due to the lack of action. It’s more of a story of the hunt and how they tracked down Bonnie and Clyde, […]
We’re making the barrel smoke today testing the Magneto Speed Riflekühl barrel cooler. I’m Pumping rounds through the FAL getting the barrel hot enough for testing. After firing at least 40 rounds through the barrel it began to get hot and produce smoke. I locked the bolt back and inserted the Riflekühl barrel cooler into the chamber. I switched […]
