    My collection of .22LR dress up kits

    Re: My collection of .22LR dress up kits Apart from the fact I still don't understand why you would be interested in any of the discussions on this forum, I suppose I still don't understand your motivation for this. Isn't it embarrassing to go to the range and pull out a SCAR and have local...

    Grippy cheekrest fabric/pad for AR stocks?

    Re: Grippy cheekrest fabric/pad for AR stocks? I ended up switching to an ACE stock just because I liked the foam. The charging handle mucked up the moleskin on my A2 stock too easily.

    Why A Ball Head??

    Re: Why A Ball Head?? What do you mean by "standard" tripod head? Are you referring to a pan head like what they put on the little plastic jobbers sold @ walmart for holding your camcorder? In the photography world, the ballhead IS the standard.

    Rifle Scopes Swfa vs. Falcom menace

    Re: Swfa vs. Falcom menace Comes down to how rigid your price limit is set. If all you have is $500 and that isn't going to change for the foreseeable future then a scope in the hand is worth two in the bush and I'd get the falcon over the 10x MOA SS in the same price range. However if you...

    Rifle Scopes Why not fixed magnification for LR guns?

    Re: Why not fixed magnification for LR guns? If all you're ever going to do is lay on your belly on a square range and shoot at the 1000yd berm (eg F T/R) then if you want to dedicate yourself to a fix power you can probably get away with it, particularly if you don't ever compete at any...

    All Purpose Bolt Action

    Re: All Purpose Bolt Action It seems like you've worked out what you want pretty well. I personally would suggest the 10HD SS rather than the 3-9 SS. The 3-9 lacks parallax adjustment and when you are just starting out it's nice to not have to question if your group size is being dictated...

    Re: Which head for a Manfrotto tripod? I've found photoclam ballheads to be a really good value for the $$. I use them both for photography and on my shooting tripod. http://reallybigcameras.com/PhotoClam/Photo%20Clam%20Table.htm

    Re: Picking some MOLLE gear, need advise Mil-Spec usually means "cheapest piece of shit the bidder could semi-legitimately claim met the minimum requirements of the contract." There is a reason hikers and backpackers don't wear combat packs, even quality ones. Stuff built for combat is...
