    About to purchase weapon mounted NV. Opinions please

    A used green tubed PVS 27 or PVS30 will range from $4000-$5000. I paid $3800 for my first PVS27 in 2021. 99% of green tubes are factory and recoil rated higher. A white tubed factory unit going to go for closer to $6500-$8000. I think I got $6500 for my factory L3 CNVD-LR with an L3 unfilled...

    About to purchase weapon mounted NV. Opinions please

    I wouldn't pay $13K for a new Pvs30. They can regularly be found here for much less. Also, while white units are awesome, at that distance you will definitely need IR and it will make a green vs white tune much more even. I went through a few PVS30 units and found my way back to a PVS27. Its...

    I have shot out to 800 and 1100yds with a stellar pvs30 with a factory built L3 unfilled tube. I can tell you that even with full power IR, identify steel is hard. Doable at 800 in the right conditions. Really hard at 1100yds. Seeing misses and splashes is almost impossible unless you are...

    Night Vision New Armasight Units (Sidekick and Jockey 640s)

    Yes, I am running that setup. I run them in a milspec pvs14 pouch. Both fit in on the bridge fine together. I am not attaching to my chest right though. It would be too large for the spiritual fanny pouch that hangs beneath my chest right, at least on the bridge. Candidly that setup is either...

    223 Ackley Improved

    To me that looks like those cases are about to split in half. Usually the separation is farther down towards the case head, but I have had rounds split here after a bunch of higher pressure firings. I'd send those to Starline and ask for a fresh batch.

    Anyone here using the Hornady A tip bullets? (.308)

    I'm shooting the 230gr A Tip in a 300PRC. I found that a moderate speed with .100" of jump grouped sub half MOA with single digit SDs in new brass. From what I read online, they liked more jump than an ELDM so I started at .100" and they shot well enough to leave it alone.

    Night Vision Luna vs FP15 or similar

    They scale the power so it reduces as the beam tightens at distance. Still might be worth trying. I have been using a FP DBAL A2 for a few years. Slightly cleaner than a PEQ15 but still not great. My buddy has an NGAL and a FP VCSEL is so much easier to spot trace with.

    Ridgeline Defense RD-15 LPR

    That's good to know. I had a BCG that was struggling to unlock and when I took it apart, some debris fell out they looked like metal or carbon. I will check the gas rings. It was completely blocking the firing pin channel at the end of the bolt. Seems to be resolved now. Are you able to say...

    .300 PRC Barreled Action Recommendations

    I have had really good luck with an Origin long action and PVA prefit for it. It hammers.
