    Official First Look at the Accuracy International, AX308MC

    Finally picked up my AX 308MC along with a 26" .260 barrel, 100 pieces of Lapua 260 brass, 500 140gr Bergers, 8lb of IMR 4350, 3 extra mags, and a custom cut Pelican case. Mile High is AMAZING!

    Rifle Scopes What to do while waiting for a BEAST?

    I finally got word that my 2014 AI AX 308 is ready to pick up at Mile High. My BEAST with a Mil-R reticle is still in the wild for who knows how long. I am looking into getting a scope as a place holder for the BEAST so I can get some use out of my rifle in the meantime. I am interested in...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Concealed Carry: What is your setup?

    I prefer carrying a full size 45. My IWB setup is a XDm 45 4.5" in a Crossbreed Supertuck at 4 o'clock. A simple tshirt over will conceal it nicely with no printing unless I bend over at the waist. My OWB is a FNX 45 Tactical or a 1911 5" (whichever I feel like). In the winter I have a...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 45 carry ammo

    I am also a fan of the 230gr Gold Dot. I have also tested the Hornady Critical Defense in wet pack and it had good expanion and penetration. The Gold Dots were better though.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns IWB holster

    I have used Crossbreed Supertuck for a Springfeild full-size XDm 45 4.5". It is so comfortable I almost forget it is there. You can get a "combat cut" from them as an option or send an existing crossbreed and have them cut it. I use the velcro clips combined with thier gun belt and that is an...

    Just wondering what you guys would recomend for anything to scope rings to action screws to barrel screws on a SCAR. About 20-65 adjustment range for a rough WAG.

    Night Vision 3rd Gen vs 4th Gen; real world difference

    I have read the difference online but I am curious if there is any real world difference in the resolution, ruggedness, reliability, etc. The device I am looking for is a clip on in front of a daytime optic for recreational use and an ocational night competition. Please forgive my ignorance on...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Kimber 1911's

    I have three Kimbers, the TLE 2, Eclipse in 10mm, and the Solo. The TLE 2's only malfuntions were from some lead SWC reloads that were borrowed. With factory and my reloads the pistol has been great. I use the Kim-Pro mags as upposed to the one it came with. The 10mm is very new and have not...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns FNX-45 Tactical, is something wrong with them?

    I own the FNX-45T and I use it for Limited 10 competition, home defense and carry. With a good Blade Tech holster with a jacket over it there is no printing. I am 6’ 4” 230lb though. I have had ZERO problems with the gun shooting all types of ammo. The difference between the FNP and the FNX...

    I have shot USPSA for years and the production gun I use is the Springfield XD-m 9mm 5.25” I would recommend checking it out. I will be getting mag extensions for the already 19+1 and have an inexpensive Limited minor gun. As far as the two that you originally suggested, my choice would be the...

    What is the right twist rate for a .308 and why?

    The total length does have a big impact on the stability factor. Generally longer bullets does mean more bearing surface, but not always (ogive and boat tail length). You need the weight and length to determine how much spin you need to properly stabalise the bullet. Just like a top that is...
