    Night Vision Guide Thermal clip-ons, experience?

    I have a TA651 and have been happy with it. It was a big step up from a Steiner C35 and easy to zero. My initial unit randomly turned off but I had a new unit in hand under warranty in about a week. The only complaint is I am limited to 3 profiles for zeroing. I would like to see 5+. Image is...

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    Loved mine when it was a 16" 1:8 twist. Stupid accurate. If you go shorter to something like 7-9" of barrel, get a 1:5 twist. You run the risk of losing accuracy with subsonics if the bullets not making at least 1-2 full turns in the barrel before exit. At least iny experience. And most plated...

    Chasing accuracy with proof barrel.

    I had that issue with a PVA barrel that didn't like reflex cans. Had to run a different brake and can combo. Shoot some rounds with a bare muzzle and it will confirm of it's the issue.

    Accessories Magneto Speed V2 Cheap

    Used V2 I have been running for a few years. A few things to call out. 1) I don't have any of the small screws used to add the spacers and lock them down. I just added the spacers and ratcheted the tie down without issue. 2) The strap for the tie down to a barrel (or suppressor) is missing a...

    I mean none of us can ever buy a direct FP unit...but that's when it's nice to have good friends!

    Current Surgeon vs AI Action

    My first custom gun was built on a 2016 Surgeon action with a Bartlein barrel by Southern Precision. It was a 20" 308 and part of me regrets selling it, I just never shot 308. It would consistently group 1/3" MOA and I could shoot 1/2" groups at 200yds with it. It was a tank. I also own an ATX...

    Greetings from New Hampshire

    Nice! I'm in southern NH not far from Concord. Lots of great ranges over here and Alder Brook is a gem up in Littleton!

    Night Vision IR Tools - Easy Way to Heat Up Steel Targets Electrically

    Cool idea! I have been warming steel by putting it next to my wood stove. In the spring or summer, I was going to actually put it in the chest freezer first and see how that works when it's 60-80' out

    Stock conundrum

    Krg I haven't had good luck with metal accurate mags in 223 or 223ai. The polymer MDT ones run like a top in both of those calibers and 300blk. The metals have been more finicky to the mag latch whereas the polymers just run. If you are loading the 223 and running 80gr bullets or longer then...

    SOLD SPF - S&B PMII 5-25 DTii MTC CCW H59 (price dropped)

    I would consider an EoTech G45 in an Omni QD FTC mount + cash as a trade.

    Help me spend my money: Seekins

    I agree with the above post. My SP10 is a laser and will hold 3/4 MOA consistently with 6.5 handloads. Shooting large frame gas guns is much more challenging and I find I need to be on my game to settle back in after shooting small frame or bolt guns. They don't leave room for sloppiness.

    SOLD SPF - S&B PMII 5-25 DTii MTC CCW H59 (price dropped)

    I am not sure. I have a pic of the S/N I can send you. Tried to call S&B stateside and they didn’t answer. Jerry over at their service center actually looked at the scope in mid 2023 when I thought it had a windage tracking issue. Turned out the rail base on the action had come loose and...

    SOLD SPF - S&B PMII 5-25 DTii MTC CCW H59 (price dropped)

    Amazing scope that is flawless and has tracked to 1250yds on my ATX. Just swapping over to a T3 so it is consistent with all of my other scopes. Will include the Vortex bubble level. The scope glass is flawless but the parallax and windage turrets have a few marks from the safe (see 3rd pic)...

    Ridgeline Defense RD-15 LPR

    I run a standard sopmod (with a beard) me use an elastic on the front of the latch. Also allows me to stash a sling in it. No issues from bags. Can still shoot 3/4" MOA with the RD15. Might try these out though to increase bag rider contact.

    Optic choices for $3500 and less?

    I like the S&B PMII 5-25. There are newer scopes but the glass is on par with ZCO. They can be found used here in the mid $2000s depending on the reticle and such. Tried to shoot you a PM, drop me one when you get a chance and I can send some more info.

    AR Positional POI Shift Test

    Interesting. I had a .3 Mrad shift down with a 223ai Stiller in an ATX chassis regardless of whether I clipped into arca or ran a bag on the chassis. I haven't put the RD15 on paper yet but my dial was spot on for a 450yd 1/3 IPSC steel target and a thermal clip on last month. Or at least...
