    Bore patches absolutely will not come out clean :-(

    Just to jump in on this, I clean after every trip to the range whether I shot 20 rounds or 200 and have never had an issue. With that said I think there is more to using a proper consistent method than how often or how little you clean it. If the gun is real bad (i.e., 1000 rounds of real dirty...

    Question about muzzle flip problem

    Deadshot- Thanks for the info, that's basically how I usually set up when I get to the range. The rifle in question is a carbine length (22") .308, so I was thinking the shorter length might have something to do with it. I invested in some actual shooting bags hoping this might help, as...

    Question about muzzle flip problem

    When I go to the range I typically shoot from a benchrest position, with bags or a gun case over wood blocks as a rest. I don't use a bipod, though I may put one on my AR down the road. When shooting, I prefer to place my support hand under the stock and let the bags support the forearm alone...

    How cheap can you safely go on spotting scopes?

    You know, I would love to spend big bucks on a spotter but just can't do it. I just bought a Simmons 20x60x60 for $90 at Gander,and it seems like a nice scope. I'm sure the glad isn't on the same level as Leupold or Zeiss, but it will work for the range.

    Range Report What the best user friendly ballistics app you guys are using?

    I have a ballistics program on my computer at home that I do calculations on, but as a hunter I've always just used past experience/instinct in the field. I've been looking for an app for my ipod, which will likely be Shooter or something like it. Culpeper's point is a good one, and I would...

    Rifle Scopes Looking for recommendations for a scope for a Rem 700 P.P.S. In .223

    Thanks for posting that link, Magstang. I knew I'd seen it on here, but couldn't figure out how to post a link to it.

    Rifle Scopes Looking for recommendations for a scope for a Rem 700 P.P.S. In .223

    I would think there are many good options in that price range. There is another recent thread here where someone was looking for glass for a .223 bolt. The vortex PST was mentioned, has FFP option, and is in that price range.

    Range Report Windows Ballistics (WinBal) for PC- Anyone ever used it?

    Thanks Culpeper, I just checked out JBM Ballistic for the first time today, seems pretty thorough and it's not expensive at all. Is this the main program you use? Or do you use a combination of programs?

    Range Report Windows Ballistics (WinBal) for PC- Anyone ever used it?

    Years ago I when I was on the search for a decent free external ballistics program for the PC, I came across WinBal (Windows Ballistics) and was wondering if anyone else is familiar with this program. If not, I think you can still find it online somewhere- just Google WinBal.zip and you should...

    Rifle Scopes Anyone have experience with the P-223 for the AR at distance?

    This scope was the first Nikon product I've bought in a long time, and I didn't know about their SpotOn ballistics program/website. I thought that was a really cool idea, and haven't seen anything like this from other scope manufacturers. Granted it only works for Nikon products, but still a...

    Rifle Scopes Anyone have experience with the P-223 for the AR at distance?

    SSCoyote- Truthfully, I did laugh at first, but after thinking about it I realized it makes good sense for your application. I like how much relief this scope has, so in your situation I can see by the evidence it performed well for you. I also thought it was weird when I looked at the scope...

    Rifle Scopes Anyone have experience with the P-223 for the AR at distance?

    I recently purchased Nikon's P-223 3x-32 carbine scope for my AR-15. I was looking for a tactical solution that would balance short and long range situations, which they claim this scope is designed for. I have yet to get it to the range (the weather has sucked here lately), but my range...
