    Mauser gunsmith

    This is a long story, so I'll try to keep it short. Friend of mine was married to a guy who died of cancer. She remarried, the guy was a total piece of shit; We'll call him Ben Marosi. She divorced him shortly before he OD'ed and died. Anyway, husband #2 fancied himself knowledgable in...

    Recommendations for 6mm ARC barrel

    Keeps the port to muzzle distance the same. This is an issue of bolt timing. When you increase port to muzzle distance, you end up with more time the bullet is in the barrel past the gas port. This does tend to increase port pressure, but even worse, it allows the rifle to start cycling before...

    Mega MATEN barrel nut wrench

    They've been sold out for as long as I've been looking. They won't be getting anymore in either since mega has been taken over.

    Remington Defense might be a thing, separate from the Remington Arms name.

    Mega MATEN barrel nut wrench

    Looking for the correct wrench for this barrel nut. As you can see, it’s a four notch nut, with notches at the 12:00, 3:00, 6:00 and 9:00 positions. I bought this set years ago, I’m just getting around to building it out, and find out the wrench was missing. Zev was no help- they sold me a...

    Wide FOV spotter

    Right. But I need the FOV. About 12x or more w/ around 180'@1000' FOV for the low end with really good glass is what I'm looking for. What it could do at 15x doesn't really matter if it won't go to 15x

    Wide FOV spotter

    Zeiss Victory Harpia 85 has a FOV of 189' @ 1000yd on 22x. It's also $3700. A little too rich for my use. That's well into the price range of my BTX.

    Wide FOV spotter

    So it looks like 156' at 1000yd. Still a little shy of the 180' the legend-T claims. I'm wondering if that 180' claim is accurate. I cannot find anything at all, that will come within even 20' from 180'.

    Wide FOV spotter

    Well, adding this to my very short list of potential replacements! Thank you. Hope some more chime in with ideas.

    In practice, 100mph tape. That lock ring hates the adjustment ring.

    Wide FOV spotter

    I'm trying to find a spotting scope with better optics than the Bushnell Legend T 15-45, but with a similar FOV. Really struggling to find anything. For reference, the Legend FOV is 180' @1000yd on 15x, 60' @1000yd on 45x Even the Leupold mk4 and gold ring spotters, on 12x show 156'. I'm...

    When did you get to Tal Afar? We had a couple teams there from about October 04-January 05. They spent a lot of time at the castle at that time.
