Rifle Scopes PVS 14 alternative?
Re: PVS 14 alternative? Those are a little pricey also, but I'll look. Anyone got an opinion on a decent PVS 14 alternative from ATN, Yukon, or one of the other lower-end companies?- beasler

Rifle Scopes PVS 14 alternative?
I'd love an ITT PVS 14, but I can't afford $3,300 for something that would be of little practical use for me. I don't hunt hogs or coyotes, so I would have this just for wtshtf. Application would be 16" AR or DPMS SASS (7.62). Can anyone recommend a good reasonable alternative for under $1500?- beasler

OAL question
Re: OAL question Michael - that's what I read, and that it is important the first time new brass is fired. Then the neck will be fire-formed more uniformly. Not sure I buy it though, because doesn't the brass expand to chamber maximum each time it's fired? That would mean I have to load to...- beasler

OAL question
Re: OAL question Thanks Bill. You confirmed my suspicion. Should I be concerned with a difference of .10 off the lands for the magazine length? Seems a bit much, but I'd be interested in opinions.- beasler

OAL question
I'm just getting started reloading. I've read that when firing cases for the first time, loading to a particular rifle's chamber OAL will produce more concentric formed necks. But, my HS Precision 300wsm has a detachable magazine that is .10 off the lands than the rifle's chamber OAL. My...- beasler
