    NF NXS 8-32X56 (MOART)

    Going to test the waters on this. I'm selling my NF 8-32X56 (MOART / mod C509). It is Brand new never mounted. I picked it up a for a new long range build that I was expecting to take out to 1300 yds. Now I've discovered that I have access up to 1 mile so I need even more internal adjustments...

    ...Interesting Post on 224V Accuracy Issues

    Got an interesting email from JP on Thursday in reference to my 224 Valkyrie Upper order. It appears they have been having issues getting the heavies to shoot accurately on a consistent basis. They gave me the option to cancel my order, which is extremely honorable. I elected to cancel at...

    Valkyrie

    I got the same Email. Glad they are looking out for their customers but have to admit I'm now a bit worried that I may fed into the hype a little too quickly. We shall see.

    Powder for .308 Match Loads

    I used to use Varget like most everyone and found it to be very good. A comp shooter told me he was using N150 and suggested I try it. I listened and have not looked back again. The stuff is pricier but it flat out kicks ass. I now run N160 on my 260 aswell. Vihtavouri really seems to be...

    New to reloading, Need help on a .260

    Re: New to reloading, Need help on a .260 LRS if you can find some I would suggest you also give VV N160 a try. I have a custom 260. I started with H4350 since it seems to be the most go to powder for the heavies (139-142gr). That stuff shot "HORRIBLE" through my rifle no matter what load I...

    Rifle Scopes MIllett warranty??

    Re: MIllett warranty?? A friend of mine has two and recently had to send one back. It took a month but they sent him a new one back. That was pretty good on their part but my concern would be that he has purchased two of them in the 2.5 yrs and both have had to go back with issues. Might be...

    Reloading question

    Re: Reloading question Much of the info you have received so far is spot on. From my experience Varget (mentioned by a previous poster)tends to work well with all .308 I have seen so far so it would be a good place to start. The mention of Lapua brass earlier is also good advice. I found that...

    Bedding Needed ????

    Re: Bedding Needed ???? Buddy of mine has the same stock for his .308. With proper hand loads it shot great so he never felt the need to bed it. One day he figured it can't hurt so he bedded it watching a Youtube tutorial by a hide member (STR). The rifle actually improved considerably. As...

    Build Vs. Modify

    Re: Build Vs. Modify Law my suggestion is to just build off your existing 700 action. Find a good gunsmith (Many great ones here on the Hide). Preferably one with a short waiting time on builds. Send him your parts (ie barrel, prefered stock, trigger etc.). And have him true your action, put...

    Re: Egg at 1000 yards Just ran across this thread and thought I should chime in. First off knowing Ozzie (STR) personally I can tell you that there is no one more straight up in this game than he. If he tells you he saw it than bet your life on it it's true. Furthermore there are few in this...

    Re: Any LEO's using a Leatherwood CMR My dept. recently did a study on optics. The only one approved similar to Leatherwood is the the Leupold mark 4 mrt 1.5-5. Outside of that they approved the Mark 4 cqt, various Trijicons and Aimpoints. That being said I use an Aimpoint Comp ML3. The...
