    FNC Owners?

    Re: FNC Owners? Not an owner but I thought about buying one a few years back and did a bit of research. They're most popular as sear hosts since the FNC has the least expensive FA sear avaliable. Parts are hard to come by and I believe they're prone to breaking fireing pins but DS Arms sells...

    Rifle Scopes SS 5-20 HD ????? Thoughts

    Re: SS 5-20 HD ????? Thoughts Got mine out to the range for the first time today. The most annoying thing I've found with the scope is that it can only be zeroed on every other tenth of a mil. I noticed this after I zeroed it for 100 yards and tried to reset the caps and they wouldn't slide...

    Reliable 338LM

    Re: Reliable 338LM The AW has legendary reliability. The AX should in theory be just as reliable since it's the same gun at its heart. The .338 AX has the added advantage of taking the longer CEP length mags. I can't give an up or down vote on the others because I've never handled or shot...

    LEGION FIREARMS LF-15C (with pics)

    Re: LEGION FIREARMS LF-15C (with pics) First saw this on the Kit Up blog. From what I can see this looks like a pretty dang nice rifle with a price tag to match. The dimpled polygonal barrel seems nice. The monolithic upper looks light (though I'd like to see a final rifle weight)...

    5.45x39 any thoughts

    Re: 5.45x39 any thoughts Buy it cheap and stack it deep. I am a big advocate of the 5.45 round and have been for years. Though I recomend going with the AK-74 if you want to shoot it. The AR variants (S&W and Spikes) seem to work well enough but the mags are rather pricey and rare (and...

    Rifle Scopes SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy

    Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy Yea I noticed this myself. I was expecting just the dot and find the bleed over less than ideal. Still, it's not a dealbreaker for me, I very rarely use illumination and doubt it'll be too distracting in the instances where I do need it.

    Rifle Scopes SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy

    Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy Mine arrived today. I am very spoiled by my 5-25 S&B and am still VERY impressed with the SS. The optical clarity is quite impressive in diminishing light, the clicks are about as crisp as the nightforces I've handled (not the same as on the S&B but...

    Anybody using 8208 xbr

    Re: Anybody using 8208 xbr Yup, 44.3gr of 8208xbr with a 155 palma loaded to mag length works well in my LMT 308

    Rifle Scopes SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy

    Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy Yea 15 mils will be plenty for your purposes. 15 mils is 50 MOA. My .308 gets to 1000yards at sea level in less than 10 mils.

    AI 338 lapua qestion

    Re: AI 338 lapua qestion The 45moa mount is optimal for the S&B 5-25 and works with a monolithic rail as found on the AX but you won't be able to use a sunshade and butler creeks (I believe it's one or the other but not both but I'd have to pull the scope off my rifle and drop it on another...

    Rifle Scopes SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy

    Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy I got a good laugh out of that. I honestly expected this to take the turn all things that become popular on the internet do. Lots of excitement, then the belly-achers roll in. Personally I'm just hoping my scope arrives before the coupon expires...

    Basic M-4 Carbine

    Re: Basic M-4 Carbine Colt. There's lots of good ARs out there and any of the above will not have you second guessing your purchase but if you want a classic M4 without all the frills go with Uncle Sam's current right arm.

    Art of the Precision Rifle -Magpul Dynamics Teaser

    Re: Art of the Precision Rifle -Magpul Dynamics Teaser I had been hoping for a SH/Rifles Only DVD like this but the Magpul will do. The Magpul DVDs are particularly great to loan out to folks who are on the bubble about getting into the sport and could use the educational push. I brought the...

    XCR-M 7.62x51 NATO

    Re: XCR-M 7.62x51 NATO I know there's a lot of folks who hate Robinson Arms because it's the cool thing to do but I wish them well with this design. It's not exactly my cup of tea though and I was hoping to see it sporting something more up to date than their standard FAL-para style stock...

    Colts New Rifle

    Re: Colts New Rifle Info on this seeped out a few months back. The big difference between it and its competitors is that the lower is compatible with both .308 and .223 uppers. An interesting feature but I really don't see anyone ever using it as a .223 rifle when you could have a complete...
