    Budget binoculars, Nikon Monarch 5. 8x42 vs Bushnell Ultra Legend HD 8x42, any experiences

    I've been researching a set of 8x42s for my father in law and bought an "open box" Meopta MeoPro 8x42 from Camra Land NY for $269 (normal price $399). I've had them for 10 days or so. I then ran across a bird forum thread on the newer low end Zeiss Terra binoculars. These are made in China to...

    Reloading 75 and 77gr for 1/7 twist 16" DD

    I'm pretty sure you are loading a very compressed charge with Varget. Just not enough room in the case, resulting in the damage to the olgive.

    Reloading 75 and 77gr for 1/7 twist 16" DD

    The 77 gr SMK /w c and 77 gr Nosler shoot to the same POI to ~ 400+ in my 18" Noveske with the SMKs running ~0.5 MOA flatter at 700 Meters. Accuracy is very good with both and about the same between the two, as far as I can tell - at least to mid-range. Load is 24.2 TAC, Rem 7 1/2 primers...

    Rifle Scopes Decided on NXS 2.5x10 for SCAR ring question

    I replaced a LaRue LT104 with the (non cantilevered) ADM Delta and I'm liking it a lot.

    Rifle Scopes Optics for a SCAR 17s??

    Re: Optics for a SCAR 17s?? NF 2.5-10x32 on the SCAR H for me. I originally bought a USO 1.5-6 for it, but found the NF is my preferred optic. The USO was moved to an SPRish AR. My use is mostly for longer range 3-Gun (12" plates to 440 Yds is common) - where I typically run the NF at 6x in...

    My wife the accountant did the reloading cost ..

    Re: My wife the accountant did the reloading cost .. She's been audited! The cost of the .338 brass does not appear to be amortized over the life of each piece. Do you only get one load out of new brass?

    Giraud - Time it takes for Caliber conversions?

    Re: Giraud - Time it takes for Caliber conversions? Thanks for the help, everyone. I just ordered the case holder plus the spare cutter head with blade setup for .223. Some Hornday lock rings and a set of shims are coming from Sinclair. The shims seem like a good idea when I'm working...

    Giraud - Time it takes for Caliber conversions?

    Re: Giraud - Time it takes for Caliber conversions? 10-4 on the Hornady lock rings. I'm trying to place an order right now for a few plus a set of shims, but the Sinclair/Brownells site is acting screwy.

    Giraud - Time it takes for Caliber conversions?

    Re: Giraud - Time it takes for Caliber conversions? Great idea on the shims. And no doubt, I'm planning on using lock rings - probably whatever Giraud sells, but I'll check with him first.

    Giraud - Time it takes for Caliber conversions?

    I've been running the Giraud trimmer for a few month and really like it. I initially bought the unit set up for 7.62/.308 only. Now I need to determine if I want to stay with the Dillon trimmer for .223 or add a complete caliber conversion (including cutter head /w blade and lock rings)...

    Re: Longest shot you've made with an AR-15 766 Yds (700 Meters), 5 consecutive hits, 18" Noveske SPR barrel, 77 SMK reloads, perfect conditions (and quite a bit better than I normally see).

    Rifle Scopes quick detach mounts

    Re: quick detach mounts I have LaRue, Bobro, and ADM mounts in use. All are good. I'm considering replacing the current mount on my SCAR17 with the newish and more beefy <span style="font-weight: bold">ADM Delta mount</span> due to the extra forces incurred from that rifle (.308/7.62). It's...
