I'd argue truing is only helpful if you don't have an accurate chronograph. It's challenging to account for environmental variables and shooter-induced error with enough fidelity at the ranges needed to true effectively. If you're using a magnetospeed or labradar, paired with a CDM, that's as...

^ one of the reasons I switched. I haven't verified this, but I've also read the under-tension technique potentially contributes to increasing brass length. The idea that I could reduce the need to trim was enough for me to switch from the one-die with Redding carbide ball to a dedicated die...

I don't have any suggestions about the mount. Concerning the focus ring, the tube body should be purged/filled with argon. I wouldn't open that up, especially if you can still adjust focus on the eyepiece.

Maybe it depends on what you're doing. I think people shooting comps like to keep the math simple, IE: how many yards is my gun a six mph gun? Run your bullets faster, and you increase that distance. The reality of things is very few people are doing the math in their heads, so it doesn't...

Agree with @KnowNothing256; this isn't normal. I also have a TT Special on a Nucleus 2.0, and everything works as it should. I've e-mailed the ARC people about a magazine issue, and they responded within 45 minutes. I'd reach out to them and see what they think, or swap that trigger out with a...

I'm unsure about the aiming devices. If you can use open sights, you can aim a lab radar without a 3rd party sight. I haven't dropped one shot since I started using the device. I've only used it on centerfire rifles, suppressed and unsuppressed. Buy a mini-tripod. Buy an external battery...

I've used the Wilcox unit, and its performance is underwelming. You can only be sure you're aiming at targets at, or near, the range you co-witnessed the LRF and your optic, unless you're using it at night. I suspect this is why most of these things never make it out of development. Why guess...

My case rotation considerations: - I don't mix different brands of brass. If I have different brands of brass, I'll save until I've got enough to work up a load with a specific bullet. IE: I save Winchester brass for hunting loads. - I will mix brass between rifles if precision isn't a top...

I use plastic organizers from Plano to hold mine. The cases are clear and I write the caliber/what type die on the lid. I think they sell them in the fishing tackle section of Walmart.

Jet boil and nalgene bottles. Boil water at night and put the bottles under armpits or at feet to stay warm. I don't know of a water storage/boil device. You might want to look at Steri Pens. You can purify water in the storage device without heat. SteriPEN | SteriPEN is the world's...

I have some Hilti torx bits that are holding up well but they are not being used professionally.

I agree with Willys and would argue that the small bit of accuracy the you "might" gain from jump is outweighed by being able to unload your rifle without dumping powder all over the place. I know you're thinking that you can work around it but I've tried to operate like that and it's not worth...

I have this problem as well. I have to seat my 118lr a couple of thousandths lower to make it work without hard chambering, IE: jamming into the lands. I think that's what your experiencing. I prefer just not to shoot that stuff. There is much better ammo out there. I would not change a...

I don't recall the name, but there is a place in Cle Elm that is hands down the best place I have ever been in. It's the only place I could find a Co-Ax in stock at the time. Probably pretty far out of your way, but if you ever find yourself out on I-90 it's worth stopping in to check them out.
