Re: 1426 yard deer
Wadcutter, outstanding shooting and good on you for knowing the limitations of yourself and your equipment. A shot like this should NEVER even be thought about being attempted on a live target unless the shooter is experienced and competent at shooting to ranges like that...
Went to breakfast with a couple buddies opening morning and got to talking about ballistics a little bit, so I pulled up my shooter app and ran some numbers for their different rifles and showed them their (rough) dope. They seemed a little impressed, but still skeptical (missouri farm boys are...
Re: Compound Hunting Bow Mathews vs Bowtech vs Hoyt
No mention of Elite Archery?? You should check them out. They make awesome bows, super cheap compared to matthews and as good as anything out there in my opinion. They have a lifetime warrantee that stays with the bow, not the first...
Re: The AK-47 of 1911's
If you're after ak status, go with a glock. It's not a 1911, but you can get em in 45. Unless you get really lucky, you probably won't find much in your price range for a 1911
Re: Help selecting a Nightforce scope please...
First of all, where are you hunting and what are you hunting for? 22x is pretty hefty and you'll probably NEVER see it when firing at a live target. It's even more than needed for paper, especially with a 308.
Go with a 56mm obj for sure, they...
Re: DMR Pics
I like the eotech setup. I have a 3x behind mine on an A.R.M.S. qd flip mount, wouldn't mind getting a 5x, but I like how fast it is to transition from mid-range to cqb. ACOG's are nice too, don't have to buy any batteries
Re: Anyone have XLR chassis problems?
Glad to hear I'm not the only one. I did call Kyle to let him know about it so he could give people a heads up or tweak the design some.
I have a Huber Concepts trigger and I had some problems with it and my chassis. It went in just fine, I just couldn't activate the safety. I ended up taking a chainsaw file and relieving about 1/8" out of the chassis.
It's got enough room now, so everything functions fine. Just wondering if...
Re: NE MO comps
Yeah me too. I hear they have them every now and then at that Bucksnort range. I think they only go to 700 though. Theres more down south around springfield. Theres a site with match listings, I just don't remember what it is right now
Re: HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARINES!
Ten November 1775. I was born in a bomb crater. My mother was an M16 and my father was the devil. Each moment that I live is an additional threat upon your life. I eat concertina, piss napalm and I can shoot a round through a flea’s ass at three-hundred meters. I...
Some guy wants to trade me an old fn mauser action with a 26" douglas #4 chambered in 243 for an old tig welder I have on craiglist. The guy says hes a gunsmith and he squared the action, slicked up the trigger a bit, and some other stuff I'm not remembering right now. I'm asking 1300 for the...
