    Rifle Scopes Bushnell AR optics 1-4x24 experience?

    You're right, that's a possible issue with the BTR model (one of the few cases where having the front sight post ghosting actually comes in handy rather than being annoying :) ) but the one the OP mentions should probably work better since it uses the BDC SFP reticle. At first I was shooting for...

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell AR optics 1-4x24 experience?

    I just bought the illuminated reticle version of it but haven't had a chance to take it to the range yet. From what I've seen so far: this combination is a bit heavy (both the scope and the mount; I bought that same mount) so it's something to think about if keeping you rig light is a priority...

    Rifle Scopes Best 1 to 4 power scope under $500 for 5.45x39 AR

    Has anyone had experience with the bushnell 1-4 AR (AR91424I)? Wonder how it compares to the mtac?

    My hunting sling with a few perks

    Haven't had a chance yet. I'll see if I can hit the range this week to try to run it through different shooting positions.

    My hunting sling with a few perks

    So I've been eyeing many of rifle sling choices available out there with their plethora of cool nick-knacks and have busting my head trying to decide which one would better suit my needs. For sure I wanted an arm loop and a quick adjust buckle to help with unsupported shooting. But then I also...

    Extensive lube/gun care product evaluation - with results!

    wow Hornady OneShot looks really good. Wonder what's the difference between the OneShot with Dyna-Glide Plus and the OneShot TAp HD-Extreme.

    NEW from XLR Industries **ELEMENT CHASSIS**

    Wow looks nice. Did the length added by the folding stock adapter give you problems with the cheek piece distance to the scope? Wonder if using the lite buttstock with the extreme buttstock's cheek piece (already have one installed on my HS-P and it works great) may be safer to prevent eye...

    *Round 2 check it out* DIY Fiberglass AR-15 Free Float Tube

    how about vent holes to keep the barrel cool?

    NEW from XLR Industries **ELEMENT CHASSIS**

    Does the Tactical Lite butt stock supports recoil pad height and/or cant adjustment? Man I was almost convinced about getting and LSS; now this new option coems and screws my head again.

    WTF would cause this?

    Would there be any difference or benefit when choosing (for firearm purposes) between copper, nickel, silver, or stainless-based anti-seize?

    AIAX...I'm in love!

    I apologize for the confusion. I'm not saying AIs shoot well due to their weight (they clearly shoot outstandingly) but rather what percentage of shooters improvement is acquired by reduced recoil movement and feel.

    AIAX...I'm in love!

    The OP mentions an interesting point I've seen in other similar threads, and that is the possible effect of AI's weight on accuracy. I wonder how much this acts as a handicap to proper shooting technique (not bashing you Double_edge at all, I'm no expert marksman in any sense). Has anyone tried...

    Which Phone; I pod or Android?

    Man tell me about it. I just changed my service plan not long ago and it's costing me a fortune. Issue with weather stations is that they may be substantially far from your location thus not able to provide acurate data. I've read good reviews on the weatherhawk brand of anemometer (it's less...

    Which Phone; I pod or Android?

    may be cheaper long term to get a Kestrel than signing your soul.. I mean your phone to a service provider ;) . I believe some providers are giving non-contract services but I'm not sure if it's specific to certain phone models (you know how there's always a catch).

    Which Phone; I pod or Android?

    if all you want is to get a phone to carry a ballistic app I say look first at the app you're more inclined, then get a used phone and don't connect it to a service provider. Both iPhone and Android interfaces are simple and easy to learn (iPhone probably a bit more). Just remember that if you...

    Questions for those who build guns

    Dumb question, is there a reason why torquing lubricant is not used on rifles? Would torque lubricating provide less variation between stock re-installations?

    Shooter or applied ballistics app for android

    I believe Shooter has the feature to gather atmospheric data from local weather stations (but I usually do manual input, you know to have an excuse for having bought the anemometer).

    Electronic ear protection with good surround amplification

    Hi guys, I've been pondering whether I should spend some money on a new pair of electronic ear plugs/muffs. Currently I run with a pair of surefire EP7's in combination with Howard Leight L0F. Depending on what I'm doing in the day I may use one or the other. I know both lack the amplification...
