    Rifle Scopes SHTF LPVO?

    Been a few years since my last post—5, I think. I tested a lot of LPVOs for my 14.5” AR. My eyes have gotten to the point that I use scopes to correct my vision. My friends want to run and gun, and I prefer to sit somewhere with a good field of fire and let the bullets do the work. So, this...

    FFL in North Va

    Quantico PX does it--may be easier with them if you are on orders. Also, if you go by the gun desk at the Belvoir PX, they have business cards for the uniformed FFL who will do the transaction (not associated with AAFES). Shooters at Lorton is good, but they are absolute sticklers on VA Driver's...

    Rifle Scopes Full day with the Vortex 4.5-27x - Initial Impressions

    Will parallax allow you to get a sharp focus below 50Y? My gen I seemed to 'bottom out' at ~60Y, didn't quite look right at 50Y. Thanks

    Good FL sizer for SR25?

    I'm using a Rock Chucker and am reloading for a GAP-built SR25. What is the best die to use that will also allow me to adjust neck tension? Thanks.

    Rifle Scopes Insights on S&B 12-50?

    Looking for insights on the S&B 12-50. Questions: 1) Finest reticle option (i.e. narrowest reticle)? (Does SFP go even narrower relative to FFP?) 2) Useability of scope at 50x? 3) Eyebox--does it tighten up like a March at high magnification? Application will be for a high-end 22LR to...

    Rifle Scopes Mst 100 bdc

    Redmanss, Great point-- saw his handle and assumed he was in VA like me. Altitude below 700 ft with temperature in mid-70s (Quantico and PNTC). Figured this would get him close enough to targets at range so he could make his own adjustments. Love the FDAC... Steve

    Rifle Scopes Mst 100 bdc

    MST-100 w/ American Ballistics 175s and Southwest Ammo 175 (M118LR load). Get the parallax up front perfect before you start shooting. Zero at 100. 200-1 300-1 400-1 500-1 600 700 800 900 1K+1 If you zero at 300, then you'll be 1" low (+1 adj) at 100 and you'll be 1K-1 (adj). Enjoy the...

    Any Review of MOA Shooting Bag?

    Sick of two rear bags and one stuffed sock in my range bag. Anybody using the MOA shooting bag? My application will be 300 to 1K, prone/bench and some positional shooting. I'd like some insight from those using it--particularly if the pump adjustment is useable at 1K. Thanks

    Gunsmithing HS Precision Stock, barrel clearance

    Thanks-- with such a small level of clearance, that doesn't bode well for my action. I have a heavy custom barrel from Clay Spencer on my 22LR--significantly wider than the original heavy barrel. Steve

    Gunsmithing HS Precision Stock, barrel clearance

    Hi, I'm looking at pulling my M40X 22LR Heavy Barrel from my AICS and putting it into an HS Pro (M24 SA variant) stock. What is the maximum clearance on the barrel, and does anyone have any insights if the pillars will match the action? Thanks, Steve

    Whats an AR-TEL M21 scope actually worth?

    Re: Whats an AR-TEL M21 scope actually worth? Have been watching AR Tels for a while-- $800 w/o base. ~$1200 w/ fogging or ratty base ~$1800 seems good ~>$2000 w/ SNd base and in super condition (or its the last part you need for an XM-21 build) (Serial numbers will be mounted on the face of...

    James River Armory 03A4?

    Re: James River Armory 03A4? James River Armory built an LRB-based M14 clone a few years ago. I was extremely pleased with the quality of their work. Also, the other clones that I saw were very nice. I would deal with them again if I had the funds.

    M1/14 stocks fitted, gunsmithing, etc.

    Re: M1/14 stocks fitted, gunsmithing, etc. The website says the shop has been shut down for over two years. Why is this getting bumped?

    Vietnam Snipers

    Re: Vietnam Snipers Sandwarrior, If you have two medium-sized knob/screws on the side of the mount, then you have an ART-II. If you have one big knob at the base, then its probably an ART-TEL. Also, the ART-TEL's are all black whereas the ART-IIs have a grey-green rear objective. Both are...

    Vietnam Snipers

    Re: Vietnam Snipers I can provide some insight on the equipment side for the USA XM21s and USMC M40s... I've talked to several Vietnam (Army) snipers when researching my project rifles. Though they didn't have the gadgets, they knew their dopes. Also, the Army guys had a decent...

    what's so special about SR-25's?

    Re: what's so special about SR-25's? I have had two SR25s and a few other AR308s. I usually shoot factory 175SMKs: LWRC REPR--would consistently get around .9MOA, but it could shoot heavier rounds better. If I handloaded, then I would have kept the REPR because it runs so clean and the...

    Rifle Scopes NF ARMY SPEC F1 Special Release

    Re: NF ARMY SPEC F1 Special Release Been in a desk job too long... Which Army system is the Nightforce being fielded with? Is this strictly a unit-procured variance? All the M14/M21/M24/XM2010/M107 are Lupy (though I see alot of NF on the 107s and some variances with the different SF...

    Rifle Scopes Try a Premier or stick with SB?

    Re: Try a Premier or stick with SB? Have had both S&B and Premier XR. Both are great scopes. I prefer the S&B over the Premier. Optically, I'd give it a very slight advantage to the S&B because the focus ring on the Premier was a little too coarse for my adjustments--could never get it quite...

    Low Round Count Rifles for Sale

    Re: Low Round Count Rifles for Sale I have one rifle that I can never sell because I've shot the bejeesus out of it. A few others get moderate use and would take huge depreciation if I tried to sell them. I have three low-round count rifles in my safe right now that never seem to make it out...
