Spuhr Sniper / Marksman Sight Mount

Spuhr Mount
Sniper’s Hide was excited to get a first look at the new sniper sight mount from Håkan Spuhr. His 0ne piece mounts are probably the most well thought out of its kind. Sturdy, this extremely durable mount is made of 7075 Aluminum, yet weighs only 250 grams. The mounts are available with several different built in cants to extend the range of your scope, 20MOA, 30MOA or a user specified tilt can be requested. As well they come in a variety of ring heights to account for pairing with different types of accessory optics like NV or Thermal sights.

Borka Tools 12 Torque Setting Driver

Borka Tools Torque Driver
Sniper’s Hide was fortunate enough to get a hold of the new Borka Enterprises Multi Setting Torque Driver for review. We have been using this tools for approximately 2 months now and we find it an excellent tool for the precision rifle shooter. Inexpensive, lightweight (less than 6 ounces), rugged, highly consistent and accurate torque driver is made from stainless steel and structural polymer, and differs from traditional “slip clutch” and “cam-over” type torque drivers by its simple and reliable design and compactness.

Day 1.
Accuracy International Rifle
The first day was dedicated to the Accuracy International AE series rifles. This is the Accuracy Enforcement model, which was designed for Law Enforcement. This rifle was my first Accuracy International many years ago. I believe I had the oldest rifle in the class with the original version purchased around 2002. Since that time they had moved forward with the Mark II model.
