    Hunting & Fishing 180 Nosler Ballistic Tip vs 178gr Amax

    Re: 180 Nosler Ballistic Tip vs 178gr Amax Both can be extremely accurate. The BC of both is around .5, and the terminal performance of both is great on deer. The Hornady bullets are almost 50% cheaper!

    Range Report Barrometric pressure

    Re: Barrometric pressure Basic knowledge for you and I maybe, but my officers/commanders wouldn't know what the hell you are talking about. As far I'm concerned they can stay in their lane and out of mine. The less they know the more of an SME I am and the less they micro manage.

    Fieldcraft range est. by eye

    Re: range est. by eye The M22 binos stadia lines are probably not to any standard, good advise above...check them! Also to the guy ranging targets at an angle, this will throw you off big time because the target will appear smaller in size.

    who uses automatic transmission fluid as lubricant

    Re: who uses automatic transmission fluid as lubricant We use it on our automatic weapons at the range. 50/50 ATF/CLP keeps the carbon build up to a minimum. I don't know of any effects of leaving it on for an extended period of time, we squirt it on then clean after firing. Done it for a...

    Soft Cheek Weld Tape/Riser?

    Re: Soft Cheek Weld Tape/Riser? I just taped some foam onto the stock of my new .308 AR with my proper eye relief. Then I had to cut it back far enough that it is almost useless to give the charging handle enough room. Make sure you check it before saying all is good. I am probably just gonna...

    Re: Hunting with sierra match kings I have shot one deer using 168SMK in my 7mm mag...think I'll stick with the 162SST. However, I have shot several deer out to 600yards and a decent bull elk at 838yards with my .338Edge and 300SMK's. The only rifle I've seen produce that much damage on an...

    Fieldcraft IBCT Scout Platoon

    Re: IBCT Scout Platoon Yep, pevrs has it right. All the seemingly stupid crap you do in training (or garrison) translates into something you might do in combat. That's what I tell the younger guys when they say "This is stupid, why the hell are we doing this?!".
