    Need advise-daypack for LR rifle course

    Hi All, I am thinking of taking a longe range rifle course. I will need a pack to carry my gear. I also want to use this pack when I decide to try a tactical match. I want something that is light. I believe that less is going to be more. I do want to carry a camel back type system built...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex PST 6-24x50 Mil reticle scope arrived today

    Re: Vortex PST 6-24x50 Mil reticle scope arrived today Scott, You are a pleasure to deal with. I am going to be switching out the scope on my .308. I am thinking very hard about the Razor HD 5-20. Can't decide which reticle. Leaning towards the EBR-2A! CB

    Rifle Scopes Suggest FFP scope under $2300.

    Re: Suggest FFP scope under $2300. Robo, I am expecting whatever scope I purchase to do everything except physically pull the trigger. "I am not a smart man" done in my very best Forrest Gump accent.

    Rifle Scopes Suggest FFP scope under $2300.

    Re: Suggest FFP scope under $2300. Hmmmm..... I wasn't even considering a Nightforce as I wasn't aware that they came out with new reticles just for the F1. I like the MLR2 reticle. Decisions, decisions. FWIW I don't like the Schmidt & Bender reticles as they do not provide any numeric...

    Rifle Scopes Suggest FFP scope under $2300.

    Re: Suggest FFP scope under $2300. John, I looked at the EBR-2 reticle. I just thought it might be too busy. Now there is the EBR 2A reticle which puts the numbers against the verticle cross hair. For me I thought simpler might be better. I appreciate the feedback!!!! CB

    Rifle Scopes Suggest FFP scope under $2300.

    Re: Suggest FFP scope under $2300. Do I need to make sure I get the updated eyebox or is this really a non-issue? I am interested in the EBR-3 reticle. CB

    Rifle Scopes Suggest FFP scope under $2300.

    Hi All, I would like to get into long range tactical matches. I am going to take a class some time early this yearin PA. I already have an AICS custom .308 rifle, but I need an appropriate scope. I am pretty set on getting something with matching Mil/Mil turrets / reticle. So far my top...

    Re: Vortex PST 6-24x50 Mil reticle scope arrived today Hi, Well I just brought my Savage rifle with the scope, rings and a tactical fore end rail to attach a bipod to my gunsmith. The action is going to get glass bedded. Here is the bad part. After just receiving the scope, I am looking...

    Rifle Scopes Trijicon Accu-Point 5-20x50

    Re: Trijicon Accu-Point 5-20x50 I have this scope with the standard reticle and green dot on an AR-15 in .204 Ruger. The rifle is set up as a varminter. I think if you mount this on a 20 MOA base you will have plenty of elevation for coyote hunting. The glass is very good and I like the...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex PST 6-24x50 Mil reticle scope arrived today

    Hi All, I just received this scope from Liberty Optics tonight. I looked through the scope and noticed that it says "EBR-1 Mrad" just above the horizontal cross hair and "24X" below the cross hair on the left side. Is this for real? I am guessing this is permanent. So far this is the only...

    What is the best spotting scope stand?

    Re: What is the best spotting scope stand? Hi all, I too am in the market for a stand. Why is everyone recommending photographic equipment stands over a specialty stand made for shooting? Is it an issue of compactness? I can't afford one of the stands from Ashbury, but I was looking at...

    Bipod heights

    Hi, What would be the reason to own different height bipods? I have a Harris bipod from Larue which allows me to quickly connect to a rail system. It is the 6 to 9 inch version. I set it at 6 inches when shooting from the bench and usually 9 inches when shooting prone. It there a good...

    Lefties - Left or right handed bolt guns?

    Re: Lefties - Left or right handed bolt guns? I currently own three bolt guns and I am having another built as we speak. They are all right bolt. I do have a Savage which is right bolt and left load. This may be the best set up ever for a lefty shooting from a bench or prone. Most of my...

    Anybody have any trouble with AICS magazines

    Re: Anybody have any trouble with AICS magazines You most likely need to adjust the magazine lips. You need to make sure the top round sits high enough such that it feeds smoothly into the chamber. If the round sits too low, spread the lips. If too high, close the lips. The primer of the...

    where to get a new barrel in less than 6 months?

    Re: where to get a new barrel in less than 6 months? I got a Krieger 6mm blank in one week from Bruno Shooters Supply. They stock lots of barrels from Krieger, Hart and Shilen. My rifle is being built by a competent smith that will take 16 weeks, but at least I am not waiting 6 months for a...
