    New Sig CROSS

    I’m considering picking one up for hunting. Suggestions on the 6.5 vs .308 given short barrel? What lightweight scopes are people leveraging on this? I would like to keep it as light as possible while still having decent optics.

    Labradar in stock?

    Looks like long shot is out of stock and can’t backorder from factory. Anybody know of a place that has these in stock?

    Tikka T1X

    For those that are shooting the .22lr version, what ballistics calculator/table do you use? I have mine and center-x. I need to get more trigger time but as I take it out past 100 yards I’d like to be able to estimate the drop reliably. I have the built in version with my Kestrel 5700 elite...

    MATEN - Considering Finishing my Build

    A long while back I picked up the MATEN upper and lower ambi set. This is not the version with the hand guard. Ideally I’d like to finish it for < 1500 but 2K might be what it takes to get what I want. That’s without optics. My goal is to build a < 1 MOA rifle with the right driver (not...

    Official (DTA) SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Thread

    Thanks for the feedback. Ended up ordering an A1 SRS LH in .308 22” and 6.5 creedmore from Europtics. Any recommendations for factor ammunition? It’s been nearly 6 years since I’ve hand loaded and I’m less worried about the cost side as of late, more worried about the time. I was looking...

    Official (DTA) SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Thread

    I’m a lefty and have been out of shooting for around the past 5 years (children born). I finally think I can fit it back in and was looking at the SRS/SRS covert platform when returning to enjoy in addition to my 700P in an AICS chassis and TRG-42. Both the bolts and my AR’s are all RH. How...

    Chargemaster Combo Issue

    I was using my chargemaster combo tonight and ran into an issue where it has stopped trickling powder once it's on it's about 1gr out. It literally completely stops and does nothing. This was on factory settings. Next issue, although not really an issue. I seem to found another mode on mine...

    Re: SWFA - hands down, WORST company I've dealt with I had sent a product back with a similar waiting period on the dock for a return. I realize with the new growing business they have they are having trouble keeping up. It just took a quick call and they made all right. I've been very...

    Rifle Scopes Blow 2 scopes on a .50 bmg so far......

    Re: Blow 2 scopes on a .50 bmg so far...... I wonder if he's implying this because the rate the powder burns? A quicker burst with lower energy or a longer push with more energy. Regardless I'll directly compare the two soon and provide feedback. <div class="ubbcode-block"><div...
