    Why put a red dot on 1-8x

    I have dots mounted on top of my 1-8 and 1-10. Not offset. It's super fast doing "up" drills. No canting of the rifle required. That was a happy side effect. I mounted them up top to be easier to use with nods. Final selling point, if you buy a decent dot, battery life is measured in...

    40X repeater Builds please.

    Love mine. Can’t seem to find a pic, though. It used to live in an AICS chassis with a Lilia barrel and a Steiner 5-25. It’s on its way to the smith. My son has started shooting matches and I’m having the barrel shortened to 16” for him because he’s a vey small ten year old. Johnathan did mine...

    Dry fire: How much reticle movement?

    You might also try dry firing on a fired case. I have a R700 where the bolt jiggles just a bit without an empty case. Drove me nuts till I figured it out.

    40x worth the extra money

    My original barrel shot just OK. I shot it with that for about a year and then finally had it rebarreled with a Lilja. Group sizes went about in half. The Lilja is not quite the equal of my Vudoo, but it's close. At some point, it'll get a Shilen, and I assume it will then outshoot the...

    Who is your new ar15 barrel builder?

    Good luck. I mean that with no sarcasm. Paul Craddock is the bomb. Worth the wait if you can stand it.

    40x worth the extra money

    That’s a good price depending on what barrel is on it. Back in the days before Vudoo, I had to give $800 for a barreled action, then get it rebarreled and converted to a repeater. I don’t remember how much I spent in total, but it was more than just buying a Vudoo today. Be interesting to...

    ATACR vs PM2 for SRSM2

    I have all three. All are great. I have a slight preference for the view through the Schmidt. Of the two atacrs, I have a slight preference for the 7-35. Parallax is less finicky on the Schmidt. your list contains no bad choices. If money was no object, I’d personally do the Schmidt.

    .22 DMR mini-me

    I did almost exactly the same thing! I used a Shilen Ratchet, but aside from that and some differences in furniture, they are very similar. It's my favorite .22.

    Valk magazines for 6ARC?

    I'm switching from Valkyrie to 6ARC. I'm sure this has been discussed in the 6ARC thread, but I apparantly suck at searching. Any chance my Valk mags will work with the ARC?
