    Looking to buy hogdon H4350 powder

    Natchez has Free Hazmat & 8 lb jugs of H4350. No bargain @ $399.99 but at least they have it. They also have decent prices on Ramshot TAC and VV N140. They also have 1lb cans of H4895.

    Rifle Scopes What size is Leupold Firedot Twilight Hunter center dot?

    Those scopes listed are all 2nd Focal Plane scopes. So the MOA size of the center dot will vary according to the magnification and which scope you choose. But just ballpark it: The center dot, according to Leopold's incomplete reticle sub tensions, is bigger than b = Thin Line and smaller then...

    6.5 Creedmoor

    It could be bad brass, but 90% of the time it is caused by excess head space, either in your rifle or the one your "once" fired brass came from.. If your loading for more than one 6.5 Creed your technique is great, since they have to fit multiple chambers. However, if your reloading for just one...

    Looking at the Leupold Mk5

    Leupold always leaves me cold when I see they charge $500. just to illuminate the reticle. But that's my personal bugaboo, among many I have with Beavertown brood. If PRS was a popularity contest, then Leupold wins by a neck, over TT, Zero and the Vortex Gen 3. Leupold's 5-25 are also more...

    Rifle Scopes Hunting Scope suggestions

    I think you just described one of the Vortex Razor HD LHT Twins. These are both SFP. But they do feature a useable low powered reticle, locking elevation turret, capped windage, light weight (19.1 oz), & HD Glass. You can get either of them in the $1200. range. I should note these are hunting...

    .308 Winchester

    I've used the 130 Grain Barnes TTSX over 50 grains Ramshot TAC, Starline LRP Brass, and CCI 250 primers (all I had on hand at the time). Chrono'ed 2979 fps in a 20' barreled Rem 700 LTR. It is a devastating load on deer & pigs out to 200 yds or so.

    A Small Rant about AR mounts ahead of April Fools Day

    Have you consider one of these to solve your problem? Couple this with a nice pair of 36MM Rings 1.08" high with a PRI .45" riser and you have a 1.53" scope height at mid point. Not a one piece solution, but it might give you a workable solution. The 6.3" PRI rail gives you more options on ring...
