    Good deal on LC M118 LR should I get it???

    Re: Good deal on LC M118 LR should I get it??? Honestly, I'd have to be skeptical. With ammo being deployed like it is, finding NEW M118LR sealed in cans like that, for a GOOD price, something seems fishy. Maybe like XM80C from Federal, that just doesn't shoot "quite as well" as military...

    For M1A owners, SADLAK rocks!

    Re: For M1A owners, SADLAK rocks! I May be wrong, but I belive PRI and Weaver both make a "piggyback" 20 MOA rail for AR's. Im guessing, and this is a guess, havent used one, that they install onto the existing picatinny? Anyone else with more hard evidence?

    For M1A owners, SADLAK rocks!

    Re: For M1A owners, SADLAK rocks! www.SADLAK.COM And yes, I SHOULD have mentioned their mounts. I run the Airborne Steel, and love it. Talk about set and forget zero. The piece looks and fits as if I grew in place on the side of the rifle. I Did, admittedly, take a while to get the front...

    Working up some M118LR equivelent.... what I found

    Re: Working up some M118LR equivelent.... what I found Id say your numbers look pretty good. Tried to get a similar load established here. I wonder if the velocity would increase at all bumping back to published 2.8", but i can't imagine it changing much at all, and with the group sizes being...

    For M1A owners, SADLAK rocks!

    Just wanted to give a shout to Sadlak, and the unbelievable parts they put out. If you're a new M1A owner, it's a company to file away if you ever need some parts, cleaning supplies, or little M1A "knick knacks". Seriously, their parts are at least 5x's better than the parts they are replacing...

    DMR Pics

    Re: DMR Pics Droolin over all the M1A's up there... Hey all, keep in mind in the "theoretical world" when you ever become DM's, the Butler Creeks need to flip DOWN! Don't add any more signature than is necessary.

    .308 - where do you like to zero at and why?

    Re: .308 - where do you like to zero at and why? Oh, and you didn't mention scope or iron sights. If you're using iron sights, refer to the FM to get a battle zero, and then zero out your knobs. Works just like a scope, you have the numbers right there on the dials, and you can engage VERY...

    .308 - where do you like to zero at and why?

    Re: .308 - where do you like to zero at and why? I zero my M1A at 50 yards. So much easier to get a dead-nutz zero at 50 yards regardless of what the weather is doing, and the POI is almost dead on at 200 yards as well. only 2.1" low if I recall correctly, but I really don't remember. Using a...

    Range Report Hornady Z- Max (Zombie) Ammunition

    Range Report Someone explain BC's to me.. Im Lost

    So Ive been shooting some 178 gr AMAXs through my M1A and love them. The only handload I can get consistency with, and it's VERY consistent at 200 yards. But for kicks and giggles, now that I have a load, I was going to try developing another. Looking through Sierra, Hornady, and Barnes, I...

    semi auto vs bolt action

    Re: semi auto vs bolt action One more "1000 yard SHTF" question. That term needs to be erased from human memory. Honestly how many countries lately have ERUPTED, and i never once saw some queer with a bug-out bag and a scoped rifle scrollin' a road with his lone surviving buddy to find food...

    MIA and RE-15

    Re: MIA and RE-15 Well I answered your question that RE-15 is safe, and effective, in the M1A. But to be fair, the typo was kinda a biggie. Lotta people just sit and type crapola all day, and it gets old. Hope you've actually gotten some useful information here. Congrats on the...
