    Graf .308 bullets in stock again

    The Hornady seconds I've used previously from Midwayusa have fairly obvious reasons they're rejected. I've found base to ogive varies quite a bit which impacts case capacity and thus pressure. Bullet weights also vary much more than the factory firsts (of course). Loaded using a competition...

    Rifle Scopes Premier problem (maybe)

    Sounds like it needs a service. I had excellent support from them recently.

    Rifle Scopes Premier, S&B, Kahles or March?...

    The reticle is thin at 5x but I can still use it as a simple duplex reticle for close shooting quite well. I can also still make out the hash marks for holds if I really needed to.

    Kestrel 4500 w/ Horus or IPhone App

    It's not the distance that matters. Any solution boils down to 'does it get you the right data you need to make a shot when you need it'. The main problem, especially with an iPhone app is that you must manually insert environmental data. iPhone bluetooth is not compatible with Kestrel w/BT...

    Best scope for beyond 1500?

    FFP reticles do not grow, they stay the same size relative to your target.

    Kestrel 4500 w/ Horus or IPhone App

    I used my Kestrel w/Atrag to get a 3rd round hit at 1760 yards this weekend. DTA SRS in 300win shooting 208 amax. The elevation was perfect, just had to bracket in the wind. This was my first time shooting past 1000. Also shot a R700 I re-barreled in .260 the night before but it was hard to see...

    I'm having problems finding mags for 300wm, anyone know of a source that has them in stock and offers expedited shipping? Alternatively, anyone willing to loan/rent 2 for a week? Thanks, Vinson

    Rifle Scopes Premier

    I have two 5-25's and an LT on the way. I sold a 5-25 USO to fund them. Customer service has been great, had a bit of grease splatter on the glass during shipping and they took care of it quickly.

    Rifle Scopes "Lightweight" Tier 1 FFP scope options?

    That's a silly response, no need to be a dick. Guess I can't own a ferrari unless I'm a racing driver, or a rolex unless I own a bank. Wouldn't want to misrepresent what I do by buying nice shit or using a generic term like 'Tier 1'. OP, I have no personal experience with March but they do...

    Rifle Scopes Finally pulled the trigger on a Premier

    These scopes are great. I have two 5-25's, one of the earlier models and one more recent. Paul hooked me up with a cleaning of the glass internals on one and it's been good to go since. Great scopes and great service.

    Suppressors NFA Trust bank account?

    My point is that the transferee filled out the 4473 in his situation. You seem to be making up illegalities just for fun and to spread misinformation around.

    Blemished Bullets at Midway

    I have had varied results with 178 bthp's seconds. Some batches go into 1", other blow up to 2-3. Be prepared to sort them based on weight and length to get good results consistently.

    Suppressors NFA Trust bank account?

    Even if he filled the 4473 and turned around and gave his buddy the handgun that's still legal per federal and many state laws.

    Suppressors NFA Trust bank account?

    Everyone is doing it incorrectly. The transferor is required to pay the tax per the NFA: Part II -- Tax on Transferring Firearms Sec. 5811. Transfer tax. 5812. Transfers. § 5811. Transfer tax (a) Rate. -- There shall be levied, collected, and paid on firearms transferred a tax at the rate...

    My suggestion is to head north to Liberty Hill and hit up the Best of the West range. They have steel out to 1000 yards and tactical bays you can rent. I also wanted to mention this match coming up at the Austin Gun Club: http://austingunclub.com/the-texas-mile-tactical-challenge-2/
