    Defiance LH Bolt /RH Port...

    Re: Defiance LH Bolt /RH Port... Very nice! I've got a gun with a LH Defiance bolt on order, and I'm thinking that this might have been a cool option to explore... maybe next time.

    Chargemaster settings issue for .223 -Update-

    Re: Chargemaster settings issue for .223 I started with the settings recommended in this post and tweaked from there. It seems like I tried bumping up the HSP_C1 to prevent overcharges. It'll still trickle a tenth or two too much occasionally, but with Varget it's easy to pinch a grain out of...

    Rifle Scopes SIG556 optics advice

    Re: SIG556 optics advice Why a mildot reticle with MOA turrets? Seems like it would make more sense to go with the NP-R1 or NP-R2 if you like thinking in minutes. Aside from that, the SIG556 begs for either a red dot or a small scope in the 1-4x range. The Nightforce will be a great choice...

    .223 for AR with no crimps

    Re: .223 for AR with no crimps Bullets jump <span style="font-style: italic">forward</span> upon chambering for me, by about .002". This was when using reasonable neck tensions. Like Falar said, tension of .003" (e.g. using a .247" bushing to achieve a .250" loaded outside neck diameter) is...

    Lapua 223 brass neck thickness?

    Re: Lapua 223 brass neck thickness? Those measurements are consistent with what I get for LC 07/08 brass and for recent-production Lapua Match, both with a 69gr SMK. The Lapua actually might come in closer to .251" for me. Definitely thicker than LC in my experience. I've never been able to...

    Rifle Scopes NF 2.5-10x24 or 2.5-10x32?

    Re: NF 2.5-10x24 or 2.5-10x32? I had the same debate and chose the 24mm objective for its smaller size. I felt that it was a better "fit" on my 16" AR. I would also recommend the zero-stop feature, whichever one you choose. My logic is that if I'm shooting at 10x, I'm doing so from a rested...

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce illumination adjustment question

    I called NF but all of their tech folks are at SHOT. This question seems simple enough, but I couldn't find an answer in the manual or on the internets. This is on a 2.5-10x24 Compact NXS. I count twelve clicks on the illumination adjustment. The first nine are obvious: there are apparent...

    Rifle Scopes Who are our NF vendors on the hide

    Re: Who are our NF vendors on the hide I shopped around and CS Tactical was the way I went. They had what I wanted in-stock, as part of a good package deal. They were helpful over the phone, too.
