    Rifle Scopes scopes that kill

    Re: scopes that kill That's an epic first post thread title... I'm partial to Konus scopes 'cause they are made in Italy. You know your a heartbreaker and lifetaker when using a genuine Italian mafioso scope.

    American Eagle 168 gr OTM & targetsportsUSA.com

    Re: American Eagle 168 gr OTM & targetsportsUSA.com Thats correct on the Eagle OTM. I've never seen 7.62x51mm in a Premium GMM box or with SMK bullets before ? The Federal Eagle OTM is 168 gr... I was talking about the .308 GMM vs the 7.62 GMM links.

    American Eagle 168 gr OTM & targetsportsUSA.com

    Re: American Eagle 168 gr OTM & targetsportsUSA.com I know I'm not the sharpest tack in the box... but I never realized until looking at your ad that Federal made both a 7.62x51 and a .308 Win version of Gold Medal Match. You learn something new every day.

    AICS torque?

    Re: AICS torque? The specification on the skins bolts is .8 Nm which equals 7 in/lbs. I wouldn't use loctite... AI doesn't say anything about using it. But that's just me... I've never had one come loose.

    The ex wife

    Re: The ex wife Man.... I feel your pain, like in a flashback. When I got divorced I came out of it with a empty bank account and a number of maxed out credit cards, a $75000 mortgage I didn't want, 50% less in my pension, my toothbrush and my balls. AND I had what was said to be one of the...

    The Semiauto Sniper Rifle

    Re: The Semiauto Sniper Rifle Well... Simo Häyhä used a Suomi KP/-31 submachine gun to off around 300 of his ~800 kills, he had 505 confirmed with the M/28 bolt sniper rifle in a one year period. He also rarely used optics, prefering to use his open sights. I think a skilled determined guy...

    Review of my equipment

    Re: Review of my equipment The first rifle I was issued was brand new back in ~1982, the first department long gun they ever purchased, and it was very similar. The main difference was it was a Remington Model 700V in .308 with a BDL stock and a Leupold 3.5-10x40 scope. Although there was a...

    Dick Winters

    Re: Dick Winters I think it was terrible and a real screw job that he wasn't awarded the MOH. Winters was recommended for the Medal of Honor for his leadership at Brécourt Manor, but due to the quota system which limited the distribution of the award to only one per division, and since one...

    Rifle Scopes best quick detacable mount for ar10?

    Re: best quick detachable mount for ar10? I decided on a Bobro 201... it's on the way. I need the capability to change optics and sometimes use a BUIS so a QD is best for me. I agree that for many people, rings alone or a fixed mount of some sort might be best.
