    Anyone use a MDT chassis for their rifle?

    The biggest disadvantage I see to the MDT is the lack of folding stock options. There is likely some sort of attachment to fix this but as it stands right now you would be stuck with a fixed stock that might cause issues removing the bolt from you rifle depending on the height of whatever...

    Shooter ballistic app for iPhone questions

    On the initial speed where you are entering everything in if you click on the space where you enter the wind a "Wind Input" screen will pop up with an arrow pointing in the wind direction that you can swing around to match whatever the direction is and then you can drag in or out from the center...

    anyone use or seen one of these ???

    I haven't heard of them but they look cool. I would be interested to see how accurate the range finder is at actually ranging what you intend to range since you dont have any ability to see exactly what the range finder is pointing at.

    What's in a Snipers Back Pack???

    Baby tears, dead kittens, I am sure feinstein can tell you everything else. Seriously though A LRF, Databook, bleeder/blowout kit (wouldn't believe some of the yahoos at the ranges), shooting sticks (they work perfectly with a tripod when utilized as rear support), Weather meter, Rear Bag...

    Bipod height?

    I say get the 6-9. You can always get higher by sticking something like a pack under it but you can never get lower. I tend to like my bipod around 7" while shooting prone. As was stated your build will have an effect on this. If you are heavier or plan on wearing a thick chest rig while...

    Will a Atlas Bipod handle a 20 pound rifle?

    I have one on my beast of a rifle I think its around 25lbs with the can attached and the atlas bipod works just fine. I am quite happy with it. You have to get used to the little wobble before you load it but once you load it its rock solid. Rifle specs are a 26" bartlein barrel in 6.5...

    Anyone use a MDT chassis for their rifle?

    By the time you equip it you will likely be paying around what you would for the AICS that being said it is a pretty sleek sexy option! Here is the breakdown as I see it: Chassis: 699.99 PRS Stock: 250.00 Ergo Tactical Delux Grip: 32.95 AICS 5-round mag: 64.99 Your looking at 1047.93...

    Mounting a smartphone on an AR

    I think KAC was making a mount for iPhones I am not sure about droids. Personally I would avoid using the level unless the droid is using something other then accelometers. The issue with levels in smart phones is that they must be calibrated on a flat level surface for them to work. Often...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Opinion Request

    I say go for it. If it keeps her shooting that is the most important thing. Tiffany blue is quite diffrent from BLUE guns or non-guns.

    Pitted Bolt Face

    Loose primer pockets dont look to be the issue you can see what look like pin holes in the rims of the primers that is your failure point assuming it really is a hole in the primer.

    Suppressors long range precision suppressor advice?

    I am running the 208 Amaxes out of my 700 AAC-SD with a 1-10" 20" barrel and they stabalize just fine down in the 850-900 range so once I get them up to the 1000fps range I would like to be loading them at they should be a lot of fun to shoot. I ran the numbers and at 800 yards they are...

    Thumbhole Stock vs. Non-Thumbhole Stock... does it matter?

    I think its definitely a personel prefrence thing I have an AICS 2.0 and I really like the stock although I often end up ignoring the thumb hole and just letting my thumb run along the right side of the stock. I do the same thing on traditional rifles though the thumb hole does feel nice for...

    I have a TBA 30P-1 Just got my tax stamp sunday and went straight to the range with it. My 6.5 creedmoor assembled by Crescent Customs has been sub half minute for 5 shot groups relatively consistently (with me being the likely culpurit when it isnt) and the 5 round group I shot at 200 with the...

    Pain/tingling sensation in arm when behind rifle

    Might try temproarily adjusting your LOP by sticking some foam or something between your shoulder and the stock to see if that solves the issue its a quick easy thing to check and see if thats the issue to short of a LOP will definitely cause your arm to have to bend tighter and your wrist to...

    Anywhere to get good custom ballistic charts?

    BC is a measure of how well a bullet flies through the air a higher BC means the bullet has less drag while a lower BC equals more drag the higher the BC the less velocity a bullet will loose over distance this will equate to less bullet drop and less effect from the wind. On the other hand a...

    Subsonic .308 reloading process?

    Thanks for the info I started around 10 grains as that seemed to be what I had read people were using thus far. The first loads will be shot at around 25 yards to check stability and I will likely start with the largest charge then work down. As I will be firing at 25 yards I will be able to...
