    Ruger Gunsite Scout

    My father in law just bought one. My first impression is that it is really neat. Honestly we are both very disappointed with it right now. The action/bolt is extremely sloppy and it binds. For some odd reason it blows the shoulder of the brass out as well (factory ammo). Never seen a rifle do...

    whats new and exciting in the 308 AR handguard arena?

    It sounds like Troy is completely redesigning a new handguard and it should be ready for the shot show. Im thinking they are not too happy with the TRX-308 fitment. Supposedly its getting fazed out. So Troy and Geisselle will be coming out with a new one soon.

    Bullet performance question - Hornady A-Max 178 gr

    I shoot 178 Amax bullets all the time with my .308 AR based Semi Auto. When I ordered my barrel from Kreiger; I origionally asked for a 1:10 twist barrel at 22' long. I mentioned to them that I would shoot 175 SMK and 178 AMAX bullets. They told me to stick with 1:11 twist for that weight...

    Padded Cheek riser pad/cover?

    My stock is just a Manners T4A stock on a Remington action with a HEAVY Varmint profile Bartlein Barrel. The Muzzle brake is a Big Chubby. The recoil really isnt all that bad with the muzzle brake on. But for some reason The sharp/peaky cheek riser seems to cause my cheek some discomfort after...

    Padded Cheek riser pad/cover?

    That's the piece im looking for. Thanks guys. This stock is new to this rifle and ive never had this happen before. My father in law first noted the pain in his cheek bone and then my friend noticed the same thing. Bench shooting is where I have noticed this. My rifle is always held quite firm...

    Padded Cheek riser pad/cover?

    I was at a match today and saw a guy shooting with a Manners T4A stock and on the cheek riser he had a padded riser cover that was just for the riser and not the entire buttstock. He told me the manufacturer but I completely forgot who makes it. Does anyone have any idea as to what the...

    Rifle Scopes Is a 20 MOA base really needed with a 34mm scope.

    I have a Vortex Razor which has a large 35mm main tube for my .308 Semi auto with 22" barrel. There is SOOO much elevation built into the internal elevator due to the maintube diameter that the 20 MOA cant was absolutely not required. The amount of internal elevation that I have available is far...

    Rifle Scopes PST 2.5-10x32 availability

    Ive had one on order from a great Snipershide vendor here for 6 weeks. There is simply no news about ETA from Vortex. I ended up ordering and receiving a Bushnell Tactical Elite in 3-12 power. I am very happy with my "option B". Im not sure how inferior my Bushnell is but at least my rifle has...

    .300 Win Mag Shooters

    Don't turn your nose up at Reloader 22 as well. I use it and H1000 with my winmag shooting 208 Amax and 190g SMKs. My rifle likes 70.9g of RE22 with the 190g SMK.

    NEMO Omen

    My brother and a member of his shooting team went to the range with the vice president of Nemo Arms here in SoCal at our Gun Club; prior to my brother shooting this weapon system he thought much the same as all of you. He shot the Omen and the Watchman which is a longer range version of the...

    whats new and exciting in the 308 AR handguard arena?

    My rifle has a Troy TRX308 rail and im unhappy with it. My brother bought one at the same time. They are inexpensive as far as rail systems go. I guess the old saying "You get what you pay for" definitely applies here. The system relies on two little pinch bolts to support the entire rail to a...

    Remington XCR Tactical or the 5r Tactical?

    I own the XCR Tactical and My brother owns the 5-R. My brother simply sold his trigger and HS stock and then went and purchased a Timney trigger and Manners stock. The 5R barrel is better in my opinion that the XCR barrel. The XCR barrel is more heat sensitive than the 5-R. The 5-R is stout. I...

    Rifle Scopes Razor 5-20 mount for RRA LAR8

    I installed a Vortex Razor on my .308 gas gun along with a ADM 20 MOA scope mount. Its really nice. Honestly, there is SOOOO much adjustment in the scopes erector that there is no need for 20 MOA. With my scope zeroed at 100 yards, I still have 26 MILS of UP adjustment. There is one small...
