    Hello from WV

    Just about anything is allowed as long as you stick to the velocity restriction on PRS. I think they allow up to 338 Lapua on the range. I shoot a 260. There’s a few 223s and 308s. Look it up Northeast Kentucky Fish and Game. NEKF&G. Specifically the PRS division.

    Hello from WV

    it’s a bit muddy, but it’s not too bad. If you want to get into some PRS, there’s a range we shoot at in Ashland.

    Hello from WV

    Optics SOLD Nightforce 2.5-10x42 Mil-R C461

    Nightforce 2.5-10x42 Mil-R C461 bought off a fellow on here earlier this week to see how I’d like it for a SPR. Think I’d rather do a 4-16ish. Comes with everything pictured. Includes an Indoor Optical Training Aid (IOTA) as well. $SOLD shipped. PayPal gift preferred.

    Accuracy International AT - Worth It?

    I tried different customs before I migrated to an AI. Ergonomics is the only possible issue; more along the lines of a chassis versus conventional stock. Throw in a competition trigger and go. Like others have said: one rifle, one optic, one trigger. Barrels are too easy to swap. As others have...

    Optics SOLD Nightforce NX8 1-8 FC-Mil C598

    Nightforce NX8 1-8 with FC-Mil reticle, capped windage and exposed 0.2 mil elevation turret, model C598. Purchased from a fellow last July, and he was the original owner. He installed it in an ADM Recon mount, and it left ring marks. I had it mounted with Seekins rings for about 50 rounds...

    Rifle Scopes NF Nx8 2-5-20 vs. Zeiss V8 2.8-20 Vs Swaro Z8I 3.5-28 vs S&B pm II 3-20 Short or 3-21 Exos

    Just throwing this optic out there: NF 4-16x42 F1. It’s ideal for a 308 gasser. And personally, below 4-5x on a FFP gets really small.

    Bore maintenance

    After cleaning, I usually run a patch down the bore with Rem Oil to lightly coat it. It will sit for 5 minutes, then a single pass with a snug dry patch. I want a very thin film of oil on the surface, but no oil in the bore. I've never tracked accuracy since I know I cleaned the bore and it will...

    Rifle Scopes NightForce NXS 2.5-10×42 COMPACT Price Drop

    Perhaps clear some inventory before SHOT? I really hope NF has something to spruce up the optic with the new offerings coming out. A revised reticle would be nice at a minimum.
