Night Vision NIB Nocpix Ace S60R 1280 2-24x LRF Thermal Scope

I recently picked up two Nocpix ACE 60Rs but decided to go a different way on one of the builds, so I'm selling one of them. It is brand new, and the box has not been opened.

I’ve had a lot of thermals over the years, and this tops anything I’ve had.

$6,900 expedited shipping and insured

Who has hot rods??

Afternoon folks,

I'm contemplating building another hot rod. This will be more of a resto rod or resto mod, kind of car that I intend to drive. No garage queen. I'm talking about 7k to 10k miles a year.

if this is you, how many miles a year are you driving?

Who are you insured through?

Are you sure you are covered for replacement value in the event of an accident?

Thanks
Bob

Lee Precision Dies for large-cartridge rifles

Lee Precision Dies for large-cartridge rifles

For those looking for dies for large-cartridge rifles, at very affordable prices, consider Lee Precision. [Their dies are made inhouse, in the US (WI).]

.338 LM (7/8-14 thread) - https://leeprecision.com/search?q=.338+lapua+dies - $47 (actually $46.98) for a SET (sizer, seater, and shell holder)

.416 Barrett (1 ¼-14 thread) - https://leeprecision.com/search?q=416+barrett and .50 BMG (1 ¼-14 thread) - https://leeprecision.com/50-bmg-dies - $140 for a SETs (sizer and seater w/o shell holder - the shell holder is $20, https://leeprecision.com/50-bmg-shell-holder)

While they do not offer dies for .375 CT or .408 CT, they do offer custom dies…which could be to CT specs – see further down. [Note that there is a requirement that they have a shell holder – in the CT case, that’s their #17 for the .505 Gibbs (“parent” of the CT).]

They also offer a 1 ½-12 to 1 ¼-14 adapter bushing for use with a press that has a 1 ½-12 top thread (Lee’s large cartridge dies are 1 ¼-14) https://leeprecision.com/1-1-2-12-to-1-1-4-12-die-adapter-bushing - $12.

And, for those that want micrometer-adjustable bullet seating, they now offer a “micrometer adjuster screw” for $20 – yes, twenty USD! Versions for all their dies, same price.

They also offer custom dies at the SAME prices as their non-custom dies – https://leeprecision.com/custom-services-custom-rifle-and-handgun-reloading-die-sets ...BUT there is a set-up fee of $250-$350 and lead time of 12-16 weeks (https://leeprecision.com/search?q=custom+die+set-up+fee). You provide a few dimensions, 5 fired casing, and 3 desired bullets. Chicken or the egg for CT, and for XC? No. Peterson has the “base” (un-fire-formed) brass. Seating a bullet w/o a seater die would seem to be the issue…so you don’t seat a BULLET. You use a wad-of-tissue-paper plug, enough powder to get the case properly formed, and a Cream-o-Wheat filler between the powder and the tight-fitting plug (tap down the CoW until its up in the neck before adding the wad – needs to be compressed). It works well. I’ve done it to save the cost of expensive large caliber bullets. Do it 3x for each case to guarantee exact fit to YOUR chamber. [Envision a range day with primed brass, a de-priming rod, small hammer, a hand priming tool, primers (for the 2nd and 3rd round of forming), a funnel, a quantity of tissue paper, individual pre-weighted bags of powder, individual “pre-weighted” bags of CoW, and a quantity of extra CoW for just in case. CAUTION – make sure the plug is in really well. Last thing you want to do is dump a load of powder and CoW into your action. Consider elevating your rifle as you load and fire rounds – one after another, single-shot style, NO mag feed. AND be very careful where the muzzle is pointed – what comes out the muzzle will still be seriously dangerous.

Lastly, they also have a very reasonably priced single-station press - https://leeprecision.com/classic-cast for $260 – or, that press, their .50 BMG die set, ++ for $425… if you are doing .50 BMG (their only with-dies option).

NOTE: Going forward, they recommend that you use their sizing lube, $6/tube. Worth it.

NO, I’m not a Lee shill. Just thinking that some would-be large-cartridge reloaders would find that Lee has viable solutions for intro-to reloading thru long-term reloading. Their online catalog is at https://leeprecision.com/product-catalog-request (just hit the “full screen” button to view online).

Well now we know - 53 is the number

Login to view embedded media
If you taz someone 53times their heart will stop .

These Oklahoma deputies did just that tazed a man 53 times while he lay on the ground and begged for his life - His crime - running down the road .

I knew they loved electro torture - but they even crossed the streams - using up to 3 tazers simultaneously while he begged for his life . Until his heart stopped
And then applied a choke hold just to make sure .

He was fairly young healthy guy so the numbers may vary for old ladies and kids but at least now they have a control number of 53to work with .

Suppressor Issue

Here's the problem: custom built M700, with a 24" Shilen 1-10 , reamer a .308-M852. Rifle is a tack driver with all factory Match ammo/sub 1/2 MOA. When I put my Banish suppressor on, either a 7" or 9" .308, I can't get the bolt open with ANY factory Match ammo (the same factory ammo that shot fine W/OUT the suppressor), or my hand loads. Take the suppressor off, no problem....suppressor on...PROBLEM! Silencer Central and Banish had NO answer for the problem.

Comments/opinions?

BC Correction

I was able to shoot my 7PRC beyond 1K finally and have some questions about getting correct bullet drop.

175 ELDX with MV of 2899 fps @ 8680 ft elevation, 74 F and 12% humidity

Took some initial shots at 806 yards and all first round impacts. Using sig Kilo10k with weather station and AB gave a solution of 4.7 mils

Next target was 1242 yards. AB gave me the solution of 8.7 mils.. Came up short and ultimately needed .5 mils to get on target.

*edit info add: I also plugged all my data into hornady 4DOF and it gave me a correction of 8.9 . Still .3 mils short

I know there are variables in shooting this distance. This is a hunting rifle, not target, so I don't plan to shoot an animal that far, but it is bothersome that my ballistic solution was off. Sig has velocity calibration and 2 target drop calibration. a velocity calibration would obviously be the wrong approach. Would the the measurement difference between 2 targets be the solution that would get my ballistic solution corrected using the Sig BDX software?

Low Recoil AR Load

Ok, first post in this section of the forum. I've been reloading 9mm for years with a dillon 650 no questions there got that down. But getting deeper into 2-gun pcsl type matches and Im looking to work up the lightest recoiling load possible for my match rifle. What do you all recommend using that will meter well in a dillion and be temp stable. I live in AZ so extreme temp swings are normal depending on the time of year. This load will not need to be accurate past 100yds. If I shoot a match at distance Ill just use some factory ammo until I start down the rabbit hole of accuracy.

I currently have dillon carbide dies in 223, still need to get the case trimmer to help process everything quickly. Ive snagged some powders, currently have varget, tac, n133 and stable match. Im thinking the stable match and varget will be saved for accurate loads later down the road but worry Tac might be to temp sensitive for a year round blaster load.

Feel free to talk shit of flame me I got think skin and its the interweb so I dont take offense to any of it.

Thanks for the help y'all I know this isnt really the style of shooting most people do here but this forum just seems to always produce excellent advice and info so Im sure one of you putos can point me in the right direction.

Night Vision Help buying a thermal

I am looking to purchase my first thermal scope. It is going to be used on a .22 ARC AR primarily but may get shifted over to a .22-250 bolt gun once in a while. I am going to use it for varmint hunting here in Maryland and Virginia. Mostly coyotes, foxes, and raccoons on my family farm. I will take it to Florida for hog hunting in February. My budget is around $7,500.00 right now but I can go up a little if I have to. I have been looking at the AGM Adder V2 640 or 1280 and the NocPix Ace H50R or H60R. I keep going back and forth between the 640 resolution vs the 1280 resolution and the base magnification of 2 vs 3. I know I can save a little bit going with the 640 but can't help but think cry once buy once and get the 1280. I like the occular magnification on the Nocpix but have held and looked through the AGM at a gun show and was impressed with it. Is there a practical advantage of the 1280 vs 640? I know my shots are not going to be farther out just because of the increased resolution. I figure with the longest I will take a shot at night will be maybe 300 yards. I have only been hunting once with a thermal and that was using a clip on that my cousin owns. He limited the shots to 150 yards since I was not used to his rifle.
