    Hearing Protection

    Peltor Tac Sports are some you should check out as well. I had the Impact sports for years and I can say without a doubt the Petors are better. No speaker clipping and the sound quality is much better.

    Help! Scar 17.

    The factory triggers are meant for field and combat use. For that purpose they do very well. Just compare it to an M-16 A2 trigger and you will see what I mean. With that said, the Geissele trigger is an awesome upgrade. The SPUR mount is very rugged and is what I use.

    Bullistic calculators what is the best?

    In the future, just search for your question before posting a new thread. There are a TON of old threads here that might have what you are looking for. Also, spell check and proofread your post before posting will save you heckling. With that said, I like the Kestrel 4500 with Applied...

    .300 Blackout on SCAR 16s

    Does anyone know how one might get a SCAR 16s barrel assembly for a .300 blackout? I think that would be an awesome combo. The only thing I don't like about the SCAR system is the aftermarket parts availability is not nearly as big as the AR system. One day... :)

    Rifle Scopes Scope over bore question

    I just got a Nightforce BEAST for my new AX 308 with a 20 MOA base and there is a small difference in the measurement of the scope centerline and the bore centerline depending on where you measure it. I know it is not enough to make any appreciable difference in the drop tables, and this is...

    Rifle Scopes Night force Beast vs Leupold Mark 8 3.5-25x56mm M5B2

    First off, the Mk8 is available now and the BEAST you will have to wait for all the backorders to be filled first before you can get one. I have the Mil-R BEAST on backorder for about 7 months now. I chose the BEAST after my hundreds of hours of research. I have looked through the Mk8 and it...

    260 barrel for AT

    I can't say enough great things about Mile high. I got a 26" .260 barrel for my AX, (I think they are the same for AT as well). They also had Lapua brass, 500 Berger 140gr hybrid target bullets and an 8lb can of IMR 4350. Got the first 100 loaded and ready for when the BEAST arrives.

    ""Best"" "other" caliber for .308 AT rifle?

    .260 or 6.5 creedmoor would be fine. I chose the .260 because of the Lapua brass being readily available. Demigod has an excellent article on the different 6.5 variants out there. 6.5mm Shootout: .260 Remington vs. 6.5x47 Lapua vs. 6.5 Creedmoor

    Sidearms & Scatterguns FNX tactial .45

    I am a long time owner of the FNX45T and it is amazing. Finally got the TiRant 45 suppressor and it is very effective. I do conceal it with a Bladetech holster and a jacket or beat over it and it does not print. You can't beat 15+1 standard capacity in a .45 acp. I compete in limited 10...

    Leica 1600-B first hand accounts?

    Hunting shots out to 300ish, target shooting with my new AX 308MC and the .260 barrel. I would like to get out to around 1500 yards if I can find a spot out here in Pike National Forest west of the Springs.

    Leica 1600-B first hand accounts?

    I am reconsidering my original idea of a rangefinder and binocular combo and am looking at the Leica 1600-B. Does anyone on the Hide have a first hand account with this rangefinder? I am not concerned with the ballistic compensation features because I am looking at the Kesterel 4500 with...

    Rangefinder and Binocular combo, any ideas?

    I am looking into getting a rangefinder and binocular combo and would like some suggestions. My requirements are reliable ranges out to 1 mile max for target shooting a .260 in Colorado altitude. The majority of the shooting will be target shooting and competition within 1000y. I have held the...

    Suppressors POI change?

    I just got my Tirant-45 as well, have not have had a chance to take it out yet.

    Suppressors POI change?

    The weight on the barrel will change the barrel harmonics. You must have a solid attachment from the suppressor to the barrel to have a consistent and predictable shift.
