    .338 Winchester Mag vs .300 Win Mag vs .338 Laupa

    I noticed recently that Savage has chambered a rifle in .338 Win Mag. I was curious. Seems that it's a bit anemic compared to the .338 Lapua but roughly equals the .300 in velocity with 220 grain (225 grain in the .338) at around 2850 fps. Seems to me that with the velocity being equal...

    Phone Skope I phone adapter for Spotting Scopes. Anyone use one?

    I have an Iphone 4. Please post your findings. I probably wouldn't have given it a second thought but when the folks at Vortex spoke very highly of it.

    Phone Skope I phone adapter for Spotting Scopes. Anyone use one?

    I called the folks at Vortex to ask about the Kowa I phone adapter fitting on the new smaller Razors. Doesn't fit the small one. But he told me about these folks> Phone Skope <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/XqKnliNTaeM?feature=player_embedded"...

    Any one have any experience with these mounts?

    Need opinions on Rings for an AR.

    I've got two to buy. Can't swing $300 plus right now. I may be able to just get away with rings with the little Viper scope Maybe I can spring for one for my rifle.

    Need opinions on Rings for an AR.

    I'm going to try this. Seems like a reasonable compromise.

    Need opinions on Rings for an AR.

    I'm assembling components for my next build and the money is beginning to tighten up. I'm currently running a very inexpensive mount on my son's AR so he needs an upgrade too. His rifle is a carbine with an adjustable stock and the scope is a Vortex Viper 2-7x32 BDC. Mine is rifle length...

    Which Garand?

    Thanks for the replies gentlemen. I was able to stop by during my lunch break today. They currently have in stock two variations. The HRA Special for $950 and the RM1Special for $995. I went ahead and picked out a HRA Special. Just gotta get my paperwork done online and head back up there...

    Which Garand?

    Okay, here's what the CMP has to offer. I'm not a collector (although I have an 03), but will be shooting this rifle, both hunting and a Garand match. They have the following that are in my price range: Service Grade HRA for $625. M1 Garand, Service Grade HRA (Harrington &...

    Trying to decide...Build another AR or buy a Garand?

    Well then, it looks like I need to get a Garand. I live near CMP South. I think I'll drive over. I'll probably hunt with mine. May shoot a Garand Match or two. I'll post another thread on the choices available. Thanks, Paul

    Trying to decide...Build another AR or buy a Garand?

    I've got a complete lower and two stripped lowers that need to be finished. Not sure what caliber. I'd love to do a 6.5 Grendel but the 5.56 may make more sense. But I've always wanted a Garand. Hard to argue with 8 rounds of '06 on tap. Any thoughts?

    Anyone have a review on the new Vortex Razor Spotters?

    I'd specifically like to know if there's an I-Phone adapter that will fit them. Thanks, Paul

    Rifle Scopes Just traded up in Scopes!!

    Will do. If it's anything like my other original Vipers, it will be very good at 16x.

    Rifle Scopes Just traded up in Scopes!!

    I'm hoping that mine will work well as a hunting scope. 4x should be perfect until I get up in the shooting house.

    Rifle Scopes Who offers IPHY reticles/turrets?

    I had someone ask me and I thought USO did but not sure who else. Maybe Horus?

    Great scopes. Great company. Can't be beat IMO for the money.

    Rifle Scopes Just traded up in Scopes!!

    Took the good advice here and traded up in glass. I haven't received it yet but it's a Vortex HS 4-16x50 FFP. It has an exposed elevation turret, capped windage and the XLR reticle which looks similar to the EBR-2B, although the XLR has larger features in most areas of the reticle. I guess...

    How many rifles to you have with bipods attached?

    That's why I was asking. I've always swapped bipods around from rifle to rifle because I could "only shoot one at a time". Elite Iron has an outstanding looking bipod called the Revolution. The thing is CRAZY expensive. But, it's no more expensive than 3 Atlas bipods.
