    .22-250 Large Frame AR Upper

    Main reason not to go with 22 ARC or 22 CM is I just don't want another caliber. I have Redding, Forster, and RCBS diesfornte .22-250. I could easily set the Reading up for a gas gun and keep the Forster diesfor my current rifle. I can find .22-250 ammo easily around here. I have not seen. 22...

    .22-250 Large Frame AR Upper

    I figure running 5 or 6 rounds per mag should still function. I have a bolt action .22-250 nowthat I reload for. I am really not looking for another caliber to load for.

    .22-250 Large Frame AR Upper

    Kicking the idea around buying or trying to build an upper for my AR-10 and going for a .22-250. I am thinking about either a 22" or 24" stainless steel barrel or possible a carbon fiber wrapped barrel if someone makes one. Has anyone does this before or is there anyone making uppers in this...

    Precision Rifle Gear Do I really NEED a Kestrel?

    Where are the free classes? I assume online on Kestrals website. I bought one several years ago when GAP ran their close out special on the Bushnell Conx rangefinder and Kestral Sportsman combo. While I have used the rangefinder a great deal I have just started trying to learn how to use the...

    Replacement TEP Ear Pieces

    I have a set of Peltor TEP 300 electronic earplugs that I need to replace the rubber cone plugs. They are staring to wear out and twice now have gotten them stuck in my ear and had to have someone pull them out with tweezers. I know I can get oem rubber plugs from Peltor but was wondering if...

    Garmin Xero C1 Pro chronograph

    The temperatures were within 10 degrees of each other for the 4 sessions. I am only using factory ammo on this rifle at the moment.

    Garmin Xero C1 Pro chronograph

    Stupid question. I have been using Garmin for a few sessions now and have a stupid question. When taking the average speed for use in a calculator like Strelok Pro or Shooter do you average the muzzle velocity speed from each session or just use the most recent muzzle velocity average? So far...

    Dovetail to Picatinny base

    Good point. I didn't think about that. I may see if I can find a taller front sight instead.

    Thanks for the heads up in the Aimpoint mount. I will look into that.

    Dovetail to Picatinny base

    My plan is for this to be a plinker/squirrel/fun gun that eventually my son will learn to shoot when he gets big enough. I have a Sig Romeo red dot sitting in the safe collecting dust right now thanks to work. I thought I might try it out on the rifle just for fun since the iron sights are...

    Dovetail to Picatinny base

    I just recently picked up a Rossi Gallery pump .22lr. I can't get it to shoot better that 5 1/2" high with the factory Buckhorn sight. I was only shooting at 25 yards. It has the rimfire dovetail groove on top of the receiver. Rossi makes a plastic picatinny base that will fit it but I would...
