Hello everybody
Please excuse my english, i am danish so there might be some spelling issues.

I am currently in ukraine, working on AI L .338 and i been struggling with precision when I go further than 1400 m. First i thought i just had bad days, but i realized that is was the drop that was playing games on me . I spoke with another sniper down here ( local )who told me that the ammo available for us these days ( war time ) it not the best for these temperatures we have now. ( UA army issued mag lapua )
This is not new to me, we have cold days in Denmark aswell, but back home I have my homemade ammo.
Now i have to ask, if any of you have experience on this, and could help me on my way, what I should choose when i
order ammo from abroad next time ...
I heard that "Copper creek" could be a option ?
Best wishes from Ukraine

LE guys and gals, is anyone using a DMR program at the respected departments mostly geared towards the patrol side. I am wanting to starting this program at my department and I'm looking for some advice, ideas, policies and standards if anyone would be willing to help out?

Thanks

Hello all,

Pictures attached with what I have currently.

I'm a 308 shooter with about 500 pieces of once fired FGMM ammo all through my rig. Have a box of 500 Sierra 175 gr hpbt, 1000 cci large rifle primers, 2 lbs Varget, 2 lbs IMR 4064, 2lbs IMR 4985.

Rig is Remington 700 sps aac in a m24 stock, bushnell ERS 3.5-21x, harris bipod, hawkins DBM, a brake (forgot which)

Rcbs ammomaster 2 (plan to reload 375 CT someday soon)

Frankfort arsenal-
Powder dispenser
check weights for scale above
Hand deprimer
perfect primer
digital dial caliper
Aluminum powder funnel set
Bullet puller


Lyman-
Reloading block
Ultrasonic cleaner
Flash hole tool
Case prep tool

Rcbs case prep pad
Imperial wax
One shot case lube

Comparator for 308 the D size
Hornady custom 308 dies

I haven't reloaded any ammo yet and want to get going. The instructions for my Dies say I need to take them apart and clean the anti rust stuff before first use. I Do not have a case trimmer yet however the Frankfort one to use with my drill will be here soon. I mounted my press onto my reloading table since I took the picture of equipment. Also I am looking for a stone slab to put under my powder dispenser with some cork pads to help with vibration.

So what is next?
Kind of nervous because I didn't buy a typical box starter kit and feel like I missed a few things. Appreciate any help from the community

I typically shoot 50-120 rounds at a time when I go to the range. I like shooting the steel targets at my local club from 200-500m with plans to go farther soon.
Plan to do a load workup for my rifle
haven't bought any reloading books yet, not sure if the PDFs are online

I have already posted this in another thread but I am putting it up so if someone looks hopefully they see this.


Stay away from the hogs den, Twomanattach or whatever they are calling themselves nowadays

I read several places he did a good job on builds. So I contacted him and we agreed to me trading a Unertl for a build. The build was to include the barrel, log books (which he talks shit on builds without them) all correct markings I want.,clip slot, bedding the stock, and a simrad cap for my mount and any additional stuff to finish the build. We discussed everything and I included a note with the rifle when sent what we had talked about. Rifle is a Six digit action.

After a year of having it I text him and I got that he was waiting on screws for the scope mount he could not get. Ok no big deal. Things are fucked up because of COVID. Get the call rifle is coming back to me. Great news I can’t wait to get my hands on it. Open the case and at first glance I’m happy. Then I notice there is no US stamp above the serial. The I see the barrel is marked PWS and I wanted the RTE-P. Get ahold of him and he complains and says not all rifles are built to spec like the internet say. I tell him I get that is possible but not what we agreed on. He complained and said send it back. Send back Rifle.

Rifle is gone for a few months and I get a text saying hey had to spin a new barrel the PWS would not come all the way out. I say thanks for the update. Rifle comes back. I instantly am disgusted when I open the box. Finish looks like total shit. My short shroud is somehow a long one now and the bolt lift totally sucks now. So I go to cleanup the rifle and where the action and barrel were marked the finish wipes right off. Back down to bare steel. Look closely at the barrel and you can still see PWS lightly under the now marked RTE-P. Get back in contact and was told it was a legit repair and I should be happy. At this point I am fuck this guy even if he would repair it correctly I would not even send it back to him.

So I had LRI fix the bolt lift and cut the shroud down to correct length. They did an excellent job and quickly turned it around. I had touched up the barrel and action with some wipe on black oxide. It drove me crazy because I thought it looked like shit. Raven Rifles hooked me up and redid the black oxide for me and it looked awesome. Once again great guy and turn around was super quick.

Finally get it back together go to the range and shoot it. Fuck found another issue. Should have known better and probably had LRI or Raven look at it but I figured it was fine. There is a ring around the shoulder of the brass. Get the handy dandy bore scope out. Guess what. There is a huge burr in the shoulder of the chamber. It is back out being taken care of.

Oh never got log books or my SIMRAD that was part of the deal either.

Stay far away from the Hogs Den , TMA or whatever the hell they call themselves.

To add more to the story. Just got this from the smith taking care of it.


Joe I got a chance to look over your rifle today. Below or the things I found, does not include the barrel issue.
1. RTE-P stamp stinks
2. U.S. stamp wrong
3. Wrong screws in base.
4. Clipslot for base incorrect.
5. Screw for front of trigger guard broke off or cut to short.
6. Wrong box mag and not welded.
7. Bedding is subpar.
8. Not 100% sure but I don’t think recoil lug has proper modification

Also forgot the first time the rifle was sent back to me it was just thrown in a box with bubble wrap and by the time it got here the barrel was sticking out of the box even though I had sent it in a hard case.

Not positive about selling this in the first place but can’t seem to decide where to go with this build and a big part of me wants a Terminus Kratos instead. Won’t sell the action by itself unless the barrel sells first. Action and barrel are unused. Xylo also for sale for $900. Southern precision rifle did the barrel. Bartlein Varmint. 18”

Action: $1550
Barrel: $900
Xylo: $900

For sale is a Manners T4A elite carbon shell in black carbon with mini chassis in black carbon. Inlet for rem 700 SA or clones.

$1000 shipped

Will trade towards:
Impact 737 standard bolt
Kahles 525i with SKMR3 preferably.

STI DVC Limited 9mm $2800

Buy this or a used Schmidt Bender. Not looking to spend a lot of money.

Thx

So currently thinking about getting a new scope for my 16” LWRC DI I tried the LPVO route but was not satisfied with the performance down range of the 1-10s and personally I would like parallax. I know the 2-10 MK5 is coming soon but reticle options are lacking and I really want more that 10x.

EO currently has a NF 4-16 in their demo pile and it seems to fit the bill as far as features and quality. What else is out there on the 2k range before I pull the trigger?

Weight is not an issue.
would prefer as compact as possible.
34mm tube since I already have a badger mount sitting there.
2k and under (couple 100 over is fine)
15-18x
Tree reticle a must since I don’t plan on dialing much.

Thanks in advance

Received my ATACR 4-16x42 F1 yesterday. Below are three photos of the elevation turret
dialed at 0.0, 0.5, and 12.0 mils.

As it sits, the marks are a hair "overclocked." I removed and reinstalled the elevation cap and it's still the same. There's an extra mental step I have to take when I glance at the turret after dialing to know with certainty what I've dialed to. I could count the clicks, of course, but my expectation was to glance up and be able to say "0.7" or "1.2" or what have you, instantly.

Question: Do the marks on your turret match perfectly with the index mark on your scope body? Should I contact Nightforce?

What a moron...

From AP

OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — Washington state Gov. Jay Inslee has tested positive for COVID-19 for the second time.

Inslee’s office said in a statement Wednesday that he had tested positive and was experiencing very mild symptoms including a cough. He is consulting with his doctor about whether to receive Paxlovid antiviral treatments, according to the statement.

He plans to continue working. Trudi Inslee, the first spouse, has tested negative.

Inslee, who throughout the pandemic pushed for mitigation measures including indoor mask-wearing and restrictions on large public gatherings, is fully vaccinated and had booster shots in October 2021 and March 2022 and September 2022, according to his office.

“Once again I am very appreciative to be vaccinated and boosted,” Inslee said in the statement. “This is a scientific gift that has given us the capacity to prevent hospitalizations or worse. I encourage folks who haven’t received their booster to talk with their doctor and avail themselves of this protective, life-saving measure.”
