    Heaviest 30 cal. round (High BC) for the 308 Winchester in a Semi-Auto??

    Gentlemen: I am interested in shooting an accurate 308 semi auto rifle out to 1000 yards for local tactical matches and some fun with friends. The rifle has a 26" Stainless bull-barrel, air gauged, and cryo-treated. Twist is 1:10. I have only shot factory loads so far to just short of 600...

    Just Ordered: Bushnell Tac Elite 3.5 x 21 w. Horus H59!!

    Sincere thanks for your time and post. I am currently looking into every one of your suggestions. Just what i was looking for. Also, you are correct......things can be pricey up here on the surface of the moon.......i mean Alaska. Wouldn't live anywhere else though and I have been to a lot...

    Just Ordered: Bushnell Tac Elite 3.5 x 21 w. Horus H59!!

    You are correct. It is a loooooong barrel. It's a Stainless Bull Barrel as well so this is NOT ever going to be compact or real maneuverable. What I am hoping for is the sub MOA accuracy this gun is noted for and a some extra velocity to sling heavy 308's out to 1000 yds. It is a target/...

    Just Ordered: Bushnell Tac Elite 3.5 x 21 w. Horus H59!!

    Best scope i could find for my budget to sit on top of the RRA LAR8 26". Larue mount. I will be shooting mostly targets and local tac matches once the weather gets a little warmer than -20f. ha ha And I am not kidding at all. Anyway, thoughts on the rifle and/or the scope are welcome. I...

    Larue OBR 7.62 vs JP LRP-07

    I live not too far from JP here in Minnesota. They are enthusiasts and perfectionists and nice people too. Call and talk to them then decide.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 20 10mm......Woods and Carry Comapanion.

    I carry the 1895 as primary. The G20 is a back-up. Bear Spray is always on the belt as well. The 12 gauge rifled slug loses over half its energy in 50 yds. It is also not nearly as accurate. For anything at short range, either weapon will do. I chose the 1895 because it is more versatile...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 20 10mm......Woods and Carry Comapanion.

    I use Underwood for the G20 all the time. Great 10mm ammo. I carry Garrett's for the Marlin but the 525g really are not fun to shoot and they are expensive so I shoot a handful every few months to verify POA vs POI and put them back in the car for when I hike and fish.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 20 10mm......Woods and Carry Comapanion.

    My G20's are both very accurate.....but I do not like the stock Glock sights. I replaced the sights on both G20's with Warren Tactical sights. Never going back.

    Rifle Scopes Where is the best deal for the Busnell HDMR 3.5-21 H59?

    I talked to him on the phone a few weeks ago. He said he can get any reticule but the HORUS H59 in the Bushnell Elite Tactical HDMR 3.5-21. He has the others. (G2--G2DMR and Mildot) Also, his website does NOT list the Horus H59 in the HDMR I will call him again in a few days then to confirm.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 20 10mm......Woods and Carry Comapanion.

    I use a stock 6" Glock barrel. The KKM's get great reviews. Lone-Wolf gets mixed reviews.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 20 10mm......Woods and Carry Comapanion.

    The 6" barrel on the woods gun pushes me past .357 energy with a bigger hole. As you said, having 16 of them in the gun is nice.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 44 Mag, Which one to buy?

    Do not buy a lite 44 mag. Your initial pride of ownership will be replaced in short order by the look of a man whose new dog bites him every time he pets it. A friend of mine bought a titantium, short barrel 44 mag and sold it in a week. I shot it a few times and hated it. Despite the...
