    Rifle Scopes AR15 scope mount and calculating MIL clicks

    I need some help regarding setting up and calculating elevation clicks for a new scope and gun. I am looking for a high quality one piece mount for a new S&B 5x25x56 for a Rock River Predator with a picatinny rail. I have looked at Near, LaRue, ADM but am not sure which will work the best. I...

    AR15 version help

    Re: AR15 version help Let me add a little more to my previous post after reviewing your original post IT Guy. If you decide to go with less than 16" on the barrel, you may fall into the category of having to get a special license. I had to do that for my supressor which I swap between my...

    AR15 version help

    Re: AR15 version help You might want to consider buying a good quality AR15 from Rock River in either a 16" barrel cqb type set up with extendable stock with optics for close quarters, and then add a second 20" match barrel later with larger optics for more accurate long distance targets...

    Rifle Scopes AR scope mount

    How about input on mounting a 34mm tube scope on a Rock RIver Predator to the picatinny rail for 300 to 1000 yd shooting. I have an adjustable comb on it. I would like a one piece mount and am considering Badger and ADM. I looked at Near but they don't seem to have anything for an AR. It is...

    Rifle Scopes Premier vs S&B vs NF decision

    Re: Premier vs S&B vs NF decision Thanks you guys. I have a 16 inch barrel AR that has an ACOD 4x32 on it and it is good out to 300 for me. This new AR is a 20" match barrel on a Rock RIve Predator lower. I plan to play with a 5x25 on it and if it is too much scope which I think it is I will...

    Rifle Scopes Premier vs S&B vs NF decision

    Re: Premier vs S&B vs NF decision Hydro 556: Who is Scott if I decide to go the Premier route? Is he at SWFA? Starvin: I may end up moving the scope to a 308 next year. Thanks much for the input. Gary

    Rifle Scopes Premier vs S&B vs NF decision

    Hi everyone: I need some more input. I am about mentally masturbated out in deciding which scope for my new AR15 match barrel for target shooting/plinking for 300 to 1000 yds. I love the 5x25x56 S&B gen II reticle but don't like the price at 3500. Seems like overkill for what I will use it...

    Rifle Scopes scope mount for Ar15

    I am setting up a Rock River 20 inch match barrel for target shooting for 300 to 1000 yds. I pick up the gun tomorrow. I am looking at single piece mounts and am not sure whether I need a canted mount such as 20 moa or 30 moa as I have read here in postings when setting up a scope for longer...

    6.5 vs. 7.62

    Re: 6.5 vs. 7.62 For a long time now bench rest shooters have sworn by the 6.5, but I was always under the assumption that you need to handload as factory ammo is scarce for that round. Is it still hard to come by in good factory loading or is readily available now? Which 6.5 variation seems...

    building a custom rifle

    Re: building a custom rifle Thanks guys. I think I understand how the companies are working with each other. I get the impression that I can order my new gun directly with GAP and have them use the Surgeon action and specify the barrel, make, length and twist. I plan to contact GAP and iron...

    building a custom rifle

    I have read many of the postings here and had some questions. I see here that many shooters like the Surgeon built but many also like the company GAP. Is GAP basically improving the build of a Sugeon? I see GAP offers a bolt called a Templar which is built by the guy who used to make Nesika...

    Rifle Scopes How to use S&B P4F reticle and hash marks

    Re: How to use S&B P4F reticle and hash marks No. I only go out to about 800 with the 5.56. I kind of figure beyond 600 the 5.56 has lost too much energy and is useless. I plan to use the S&B 5x25x56 for the 5,56 now and possibly switch the scope to a new gun next year being either a 7.62...

    Rifle Scopes How to use S&B P4F reticle and hash marks

    Re: How to use S&B P4F reticle and hash marks Thanks guys. From what I have been reading I have been leaning towards mil-mil. I am not familiar yet with what the S&B gen II XR is. I have just made the intellectual leap from MOA-Mil SFP to Mil-Mil and now understand FFP. I do know I want FFP...

    Rifle Scopes How to use S&B P4F reticle and hash marks

    I am getting ready to order a new S&B 5x25 and I am deciding about the reticle options. I am from the old school of using MOA and then Mil conversions and then dialing in the hold on the turret. I would like to change as I feel that is too slow with all the calculations even with using a...

    Rifle Scopes SB versus Zeiss conquest

    I had come to the conclusion to scope a new Rock RIver Predator with a SB 4x16x50 until my shooting buddy picked up a Zeiss Conquest 4x14x44 rapid Z800 with the ballistic reticle for the identical reifle. Now he is making me second guess my decision. The scope does not seem bad for $800 bucks...

    Rifle Scopes optics for new rock river predator pursuit

    Re: optics for new rock river predator pursuit Ok. You guys have brought me back to reality. The 4x16x50 S&B with the P4f illuminated will be a good fit for the rifle and purpose. I am assuming that the F on the P4F means the hash marks are fine lines. I did see the good thread on the P4...

    Rifle Scopes optics for new rock river predator pursuit

    Re: optics for new rock river predator pursuit Thanks for the input and the pictures. I do have a tendency to overscope my guns. As I plan to use this as a range gun and varmint gun I am leaning towards a FFP. I guess a properly matched scope will be in the 4x16 range with my first choice...

    Rifle Scopes optics for new rock river predator pursuit

    Hi Guys: This is my first post to your board. I have been reading lots of your posts regarding scopes as I have been researching my options for my new rifle. I am setting up a Rock River with a 20" predator heavy match barrel that will be threaded for my yankee hill suppressor. I plan to use...
