    Hows does LaRue Stealth barrels rank?

    Trigger was very slow to/sometimes wouldn't reset off of the "wall" of the 2nd stage if wind kicked up and I released the trigger before taking the shot. Never failed to reset off a shot, but still annoying. Heavy spring.

    Hows does LaRue Stealth barrels rank?

    The MBT2S is the only trigger I ever shot with until it didn't work right anymore. Do love the feel, just don't trust them to function.

    What is the yaw characteristic and terminal velocity required for fragmentation of the .224 77gr Aero?

    What's the difference between Black Hills 5.56x45mm NATO Ammo 77 Grain Open Tip Match and Black Hills MK262 MOD 1-C?

    Nah, I want the Hornady bullets. I'd love to see some 73 ELDMs. Those shoot pretty well from what I hear and I'd like to try them. I can just buy M193 for blasting ammo. No sense spending TMK money for that.

    What's the difference between Black Hills 5.56x45mm NATO Ammo 77 Grain Open Tip Match and Black Hills MK262 MOD 1-C?

    Let's discuss terminal performance...do they differ? I know the Hornady T2 was much more violent than SMK.

    Toughest scope mounts?

    I presume mine are still pretty close, and I often play them against each other on the same bolt, and the settings seem equal. Certainly not the end all be all of validation, but I usually use fasteners and scopes that have spec overlap (mount says 15 inlb, scope says 25).

    NX vs ATACR

    My main takeaways from owning both at the same time is that zone 3 of the nx8 on 1x has some distortion vs atacr, but zone 1 is true unity while it's 1.05x or so on atacr. Depth of field is better on atacr at 6-8x as outer zone 2 and out on nx8 has some distortion and atacr is flat. Eyebox on...

    NX vs ATACR

    I haven't actually measured fov, but in that video I posted in this thread, the atacr is aimed at a hill significantly closer than the flat area by the river than the nx8 is aimed at. Pretty impossible to draw conclusion from. However, I did take this photo series: Diopter on both is set to...

    Night Vision Vis Laser Power

    I'm using a 75mW red viz, and it works very well, although the trace in clean air is rather dull vs green. I use it for coyotes.
