Maybe in the UK it might be different. But in the states, all the quick change barrel long action/magnum rifles are M30. Mostly known as post 2014 (but there are some pre 2014 AXMCs) The AX338 still uses the old AW actions but in a AX chassis so it still uses the M27 tenon. Or basically if it's a long action, and takes double stack mags, it's a M30. This is not including some of the newer stuff made for special departments(German G22)

I believe mine does take a double stack 338 mag. I’m not home currently or I’d verify. It’s fat I know that.

New Burris XTR PS

I have both version of the XTR PS and that HUD is really growing on me. The ballistic data was very close to AB. The app does give you the option to true it. After truing, I have complete agreement between Burris Connect, AB Quantum and Geoballistics.

Optically, with the two I have, 5.5-30x is a little better than the 3.3-18x, but that is likely sample variation. It is pretty much XTR3i optical system, so it is a step behind Pro, but still very good.

The big advantage for me is to not need to look at the turret when dialing. Also, when I dial in yards, it is easier for me to estimate wind. If I dial in mrad, I need to remember exactly which distance that corresponds to in order to translate from my gun's MPH number to the wind hold.

Same goes for the level and the time. The less I have to look at stuff outside the scope the better.

Calypso AB Mini Ultrasonic Wind Meter

I was able to use both my Mini AB and Sig Kilo 10k at the same time.
From your tactix 8!? so it's just constantly updating the wind and whenever you lase, that's being updated too.

It can't get much better than that (unless Fire 4000 gets this feature too)

I'm dying to know if it can take the recoil from a rifle for a rifle mounted setup

AX338 isn't the smaller M27 tenon. Only the AWM used M27 (for long actions).

Did you get an AXMC 300WM bolt? I always wondered if the AX338 and AXMC actions were identical except for the quick change barrel feature.

Garmin Tactix 8 Smartwatch

The dive functionality on the Tactix 8 covers the vast majority of divers, but it's not the same as on the dedicated dive watches. It supports recreational diving up to 40 meters, single gas and doesn't support air tank integration that is available on the Descent line of watches.

You can pair an AB compatible LRF with the Tactix or with AB Quantum. You can also pair the Calypso AB Mini, but not the standard Calypso Mini, with the Tactix or with AB Quantum.

If you pair the Tactix to the AB Quantum app you don't need to purchase a license for the app. It will use the license from your watch so if you have the Ultralight license on the watch, you'll have that on the app. If the watch has the Elite license, they the app will as well. FYI - this does NOT work the other way around. You can't purchase a license on the app and use it to unlock the watch.

Yep. I'm a rec diver, so that is all I need. I really wish you guys uploaded the aviation maps on the tactix 8 as well. I tried but doesn't seem I can do that. Also another suggestion for the team is, if aviation mode is on, maybe have a mode for the o2 sensor to be on as well (so I can monitor my o2 while flying at high cabin altitudes or unpressurized planes)

I have the ultralight, and didn't know the Elite from watch will carry over to the app. That's good to know. Thank you.

and lastly. Is it possible to have two devices paired for applied ballistics? (AB Mini & LRF) - So this way my range & my wind is constantly being calculated for a solution.

Thanks for the quick responses!

308 Winchester AR Only

Anyone use H4895 or AR Comp with 155s and 168s? What is a good place to start with those components?
I have fired a ton of 155's of various flavors (150 FMJ-BT, Hornady 155 HPBT, and Sierra 155 SMK) with H4895. A charge in the 41.7-42 gr range, loaded to mag length is the ticket. Seems to work great with just about all of these, and doesn't beat the gun or brass up too much. This is with LC brass as well.

I got an “AX” 300 wing mag bolt. But the AXMC would be a lot easier moving forward.

Sounds like I should pop the barrel off and verify the tenon.

One goes up… one going down!

Phil Robertson undoubtedly passed through the Pearly Gates with a salute and a “well done, sir!”

And on the same day, this POS is getting fitted for a little-Bo-peep costume that he’ll be wearing when Lucifer shoves a pineapple up his worthless, thieving, race-baiting ass.


Rot in hell you POS!

Maggie’s Funny & awesome pics, vids and memes thread (work safe, no nudity)

I miss when our lazy worthless housecats would do this when they were younger. Our smaller girl would chase her brother and swipe his back legs out from under him then pounce for the kill. We have a sectional couch that they would use as a banked turn during the chase scenes too. We actually spent many nights with the tv off watching and playing with them for entertainment

Cat races!!!
