    Sneak Peek - New LRA Bipod

    Does it give you enough elevation for a wide variety of positions with your AX? Some pics would be great if you have some. Trying to decide between this and the F-Class model on my AX 338.

    Best anti cant device?

    I researched this a while back and I found somewhat of a following for the David Tubb levels. They are more of a minimalist design and are only $50 as well. Have not bought one yet, but you might check it out on line.

    He said, "No Thanks!"

    Yeah, WTF? What kind of guy refuses a firearm given as a gift? Maybe he was holding out for a GAP or Surgeon build.... lol

    Rifle Scopes ** Need some help from the Pro's on glass selection for new 338 NM build **

    Your list of two scopes brands in the OP are both a SFP and FFP scope. In my opinion, you should decide which type you want first then you can narrow it down by brand. In my case I decided that a SFP scope was adequate for casual long range shooting with my 338 Lapua. Bought an ATACR from one...

    Triad Tactical = 41.5" rifle in 42" case

    Looks good! In your opinion, would the rear part of the case be cut roomy enough to accommodate an AI AX Chassis in the folded position (About 5 inches wide) and still be able to be zipped closed?

    Gunsmithing Cerakoting action/scope rings?

    Just got back from talking to an experienced applicator at a "Certified Cerakote" shop about these very questions. He claims that Cerakote is applied in 1/2 Mil - 1 Mil thickness and it generally should not be an issue. They sandblast the anodizing off of scope rings before coating and that...

    Rifle Scopes NF Optics reticle selection

    Sure MOA offers finer adjustment. But can you use it? At 1000 yds, one click of each scope will give you 3.6" and 2.6" (not 2.5") of movement respectively. Can you, your rifle and your load make valid use of the 1" difference in adjustment precision when you will be lucky to be grouping...

    Rifle Scopes NF Optics reticle selection

    Well the ATACR only comes in Mil/Mil with MIL-R reticle or MOA/MOA with MOAR reticle unlike your 5.5-22 which has a mixed system. So your choice is not what reticle so much as it is what system. It would be hard to go wrong with the MIL system and you seem to be leaning that way anyway. If...

    Bipod recommendation

    Thanks to your review and pics, I think I will likely order the LRA F-Class for my GAP .338 Lapua with 26" bbl in the AX Chassis. Weighs 15 lbs with no optic. Was about to pull the trigger on the Atlas but these .338 rifles with heavy barrels "scream" for something a little extra heavy duty...

    285 gr .338" A-Max

    Graf's is now out of stock, but thanks for the heads up and what looks to be a very promising new 338 bullet! Will be on the lookout for these.

    why is shooting so expensive ????

    It's all relative. If you think shooting is expensive, try private aviation. There is a running joke about aviation expenses in which the base unit is called an AMU or Aviation Monetary Unit. 1 AMU=$1000. Any maintenance less than an one AMU is kind of considered fairly minor. An Major...

    The Case of the PredatAR **please help**

    Again, it is worth repeating that this whole issue is with the PredatAR rifle which was never designed to be LaRue's most accurate model. The OBR is guaranteed 5 shots (not 3) under 1 MOA. I have an 18" 7.62 OBR which has performed up to the expectations attributed to these rifles. The very...
