    Rifle Scopes What is milling magnification for Leupold Mk. 4?

    Just picked up an FN SPR A1 w/20 inch fluted, with Leupold Mark 4 (4.5-14x50 illuminated mil-dot reticle) and Harris bipod mounted. Thus I got the packaging for the FN but not the Leupold. What is Leupold's recommended magnification setting for use in milling (since it is not a FFP scope)...

    Gunsmithing DPMS Mk12 w/ windage prob

    I have a DPMS upper that literally shoots so far to the left that iron sights run out of right windage adjustment as close as 25 yards and scopes @ 100 yards can barely get on the left side of the paper. Had a respectable gunsmith break it down since the Surefire MB was originally mounted...

    Fieldcraft 18-20 inch .308 performance?

    Re: 18-20 inch .308 performance? and yes, REM700man, I'll start saving for my Nightforce immediately. Deadly0311, quick ques: though from what I've learned states heavier projectiles have better BC's at reducing velocities, does the 168 gr. SMK have a lower powder charge than the 155 Lap...

    Fieldcraft 18-20 inch .308 performance?

    Re: 18-20 inch .308 performance? Def. learned a lot, gents, and now eager to learn more. If Lau was right, and 168-175gr. go sub-sonic before 1k, wonder how that is factored. My situation is that I'm training on a Rem 700 SPS Tac w/ Trij. 5-20x50. Would like to get a well-built stick with...

    Re: 18-20 inch .308 performance? Ranger1183: tried the link but was not loading for some reason. If there's a correction needed, resend b/c def. interested to learn more. K9222: I agree with you on the topic of capability; where I am they consider it generous zoning to give you 300 yards...

    Fieldcraft 18-20 inch .308 performance?

    Re: 18-20 inch .308 performance? On the youtube video where he's shooting the GAP Gladius, the info that scrolls across the screen said 800+ and then 1000+ yards, 18.5 inch barrel, Nightforce scope, 155 gr. Lapua.

    Fieldcraft 18-20 inch .308 performance?

    Re: 18-20 inch .308 performance? Interesting. I read an article by Dick Metcalf last year that indicated the increased rigidity of shorter barrels and how that furnished solid accuracy. Figure the 155 gr. Lapua seems to be a popular long range .308 load as both SingleShot 85 and Galli (and...

    Fieldcraft 18-20 inch .308 performance?

    Hey, I'm new to the forum and would like to say hi. Been around shooting for some time but was always interested in the art of precision shooting and science involved. While I've seen vids of shooters (i.e. Galli) hitting 1000 meter shots with the GAP Gladius, I was told by Mike Lau that using...
