    Rifle Scopes Question about scope with RMR setup

    I run my RMRs at 12. I typically mount the magnified optic as low as I can (gas guns) and clear the objective scope cap to rail. (Nightforce cantilever 30mm at 1.124.) The RMR has to clear the elevation knob. That tends to locate the RMR pretty high above the bore (+2.25"). It is conducive...

    Spotters Looking to purchase a spotter for PRS competition.

    Whatever they make more powerful spotting scopes for, I am convinced it is not PRS. I prefer binoculars for all spotting applications. Even ELR (2500ish). In my experience, the extra magnification of spotting scopes is far overshadowed by the lack of context in the visual field. I'm always...

    Check out my new "Adaptive Precision Grip"!

    I ordered a few grips, and had a chance to coat one of them this week with a larger batch of other work. I treated it like any other polymer product. Took abrasives, coating and baking fine. I textured some flat panels I had included in the order. It seemed to handle the heat fine., but...

    Trijicon Credo 2-10?

    The Vortex Warrantee problem. I think about it too. The ATACR 4-16x42 Mil-XT seems to cover all the bases for me... except for the 10oz weight penalty. I tried the Credo 2-10 and lost interest immediately. The LHT is light. Could it break? I guess so. Let me know if you get your hands on...

    Trijicon Credo 2-10?

    I've never been able to get my hands on a Nightforce (2-10) for a price I wanted to pay, and I've been keeping an eye out. For under 1K (including weight considerations) I'd suggest looking into the Vortex LHT 3-15. It is second focal plane. It looses the tree. The MIL version (the only one...

    Trijicon Credo 2-10?

    I was underwhelmed by the 2-10 Credo, even at price point. I found myself loosing the reticle (even at 10x) anytime the conditions were less than ideal.

    Need some advice on gas tuning

    Reducing gas drops overall cycle energy. This is why you're not getting lock-back on last round. If you increase the mass, you change the overall system balance. There is more inertia in the reciprocating system. Usually, it will require more gas to unlock and eject, the extraction will be...

    Rekindling .308 Love

    @bigjake83 Respect for your ability to run a gasser. Demonstrates that the mechanics allow for precision and accuracy in the hands of the right individual. Well done.

    Stupid Question Sunday: Is there something inherent about gas guns that creates higher chamber pressure?

    Tagged for useful images. My observations on the matter are consistent with @Huskydriver and @MK20.

    Rifle Scopes Lightweight 223 Scope

    For the price point, I have a favorable opinion of the Vortex LHT. I think it is very useable glass. I had good success spotting trace (good conditions). 6mm impacts on steel at 500 were obvious and separate.

    Rifle Scopes Trijicon 2-10x36!!!! Spr worthy!!!

    I picked a Trijicon Creedo 2x10 last summer / fall, hoping to find a tree in a mid range optic. I found tree to be not-obvious at 10x (slightly too fine), and clarity to be in the "okay" range. I may have had unrealistic expectations at the price point, but I was relatively disappointed...

    DDM4 V7P .300 blackout advice

    Hill Hunter, I think most of the Elite Iron suppressors run with a relatively low back pressure (I don't know the performance of the STFU specifically), so you may be able to get away without an adjustable gas block and have a reasonably gassed platform. If you find that the gun is running a...

    Adjustable BCG vs Adjustable Gas Block

    If the Turbo lives on it... Set it in suppressed mode on the Bootleg and tune at the gas block for your optimum shooting conditions and ammo. If you get grungy, or find yourself shooting lower power ammo, you can open up the Bootleg without digging around in your toolbox. (In my experience...

    Can you use a AR-15 for long distance shooting Comp?

    I run a March 3-24 (D24V42FIML)... usually around 14-16 power. I shoot 69gr smks at 2885 and 77gr Nosler Match at 2730... (Proof 18") 10 MPH Cross at 800 (DA 8500) 69gr is 2.12Mil 77gr is 1.99Mil So... yeah. It is definitely not, "Hold left edge," wind calling. Wind is influential enough...

    Can you use a AR-15 for long distance shooting Comp?

    I shoot 223 in comps out to 1100... and shoot that caliber almost exclusively. To be clear, I am not competitive in these matches. I hope to get scored for 50% of the impacts of the top shooter of the day. I often shoot in 15-25MPH winds, and my caliber selection doesn't make getting hits...
