My understanding of expensive glass is that the higher the magnification level, the harder it is to produce glass high enough in quality to create a bright and distortion free image due to lens thickness. If that's the case, what is it about the new 1x-4x or 1x-6x scopes that makes them so...

I've got the Etymotic GSP15s and love them. Not sure how they could slip out of your ear when they come with so many different tips to choose from.

I'm looking to pickup a trigger scale and was wondering if there's one model in particular that I should look at? Are the digital more accurate or repeatable than the analog versions?

Is this virgin brass or range pickups? I'd anneal the brass (range pickups), weigh it, and debur the flash hole or switch to good virgin brass like Lapua or Norma. Meplat trimming may help, pointing would likely help more. Measuring, weighing, and sorting the bullets would likely help as well.

I'm aware that every rifle is different, I simply wanted to see if there was a general area that showed good accuracy.

Has this been fixed yet? Curious as to the removal method.

I've got a Rem700 AAC-SD that I'm going to start loading for and was wondering where you guys are seating them for the best accuracy? I've got Alpha Type 2 mags, so I can load out to 2.965" if need be.

I've got two pounds of Titegroup already, but my LGS has some Trail Boss in stock as well. Which powder seems to give better results? Also, I've been told that I need to lube the bullets to avoid having them stick in a dirty bore. Any truth to this? If so, would a lanolin case lube work? Alox?

If it was from off gassing of some sort of residual chemical in the cardboard, why aren't all of the bullets affected and in a uniform matter?

I recently ran into a guy who claimed to be in the 5th Reg, didn't say what Batt, and that when he was in Iraq he learned that he had a bounty on his head, "Just like Chris Kyle". I said BS, how did they ID you? He said they picked up a prisoner who had a booklet on him filled with photos of...

Re: Opinions On Konus Pro M30 6.5-25X44 Scope Wanted I don't know that I'd go that far, my PST is brighter, a lot sharper, and doesn't get dim at max magnification. Plus the PST has a better reticle, is FFP, has a wider field of view, a MUCH better warranty, and feels like it's built...
