    5x micro magnifier options(or lack thereof)

    I've used the Vortex 3x and 6x and much prefer the 6x. I'll preface this by saying I like magnifiers with an optic with multiple aiming points (like the Eotech EXPS-3-2). The typical holds with a 50 yd zero are great if you're shooting at full size IPSCs (hold the "head", hold "the hat", etc)...

    Steiner C35 Gen 2 - Initial range trips and first hunt - Updated 9/30 with third hunt

    Haven't seen it mentioned here but what's the minimum low end mag to be able to see the menus and stuff? Would it be gtg with a 4.5x low end? I want to snag one of these but lots of the rifles I'd run it on have a low end of 4.5x (Razor LHT, Razor G2).

    Rifle Scopes optic choice for 20" hbar gas gun

    I agree with most of your points on this. The PST G2 2-10 is better at 10x than the Razor G3 1-10, to me the advantages of the 1-10 are the lighter weight, reticle much more suited to holdovers and capped windage whereas the 2-10 is better at 10x and has adjustable parallax. I'd happily suck up...

    Side Mounted WMLRF

    Just curious on how you have your red dot setup so that it also works as an aiming device for your LRF? I run red dots on bolt guns and gas guns but don't zero them the same way. On bolt guns, I dial my 600yd dope onto my magnified optic and then "co-zero" the red dot to the center of the...

    Side Mounted WMLRF

    Hey Zak, what was it like to sling up for carrying with the WMLRF on the left hand side? That was always what I saw as the weak point in that setup, figured the rangefinder would catch on your gear.

    Side Mounted WMLRF

    I think the hardest part of what you want to do will be properly setting up the parallel zero with your Impact and red dot. Vortex include a target for zeroing the Impact but since you're using a non-magnified RDS you'll have to zero close enough that you can see the viz laser and the reticle of...

    Reforming .277 Fury brass to Creedmoor

    Have you put enough of these rounds through a 6.5 Creed barrel yet to burn one out? Curious how much barrel life you give up for the added speed?

    Did I hear correctly that yeti is killing mystery Ranch?

    Only the Berry compliant military line packs have been made stateside for a few years now.

    Did I hear correctly that yeti is killing mystery Ranch?

    I've got a couple MR packs and always really liked them. My USA made 3DAP is wearing pretty thin though and has a zipper coming apart now, I wonder what this means for warranty? Guess I'll be getting a Kifaru to replace it...

    Spotters Vortex Fury HD 5000 questions… Also AB model $999 currently from Scheels

    I've used a pair for the past 3 years, for field matches and hunting. I've thought they were easily the best value in a set of LRF binos with a full solver for a while and at $999 that's a total no-brainer.

    Tangoinnos Fire4000

    It kinda depends if it needs to be tethered/paired at all times in order to give you dope or if you could just transfer the environmentals (and lock them) and then just pair and update every few hours or so (or as you feel temps change drastically). Has anyone hinted at a price point?

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    To guns guys sure, we can pick up on what is a gun case, generally speaking. Guy was just asking for a soft case for his shorty, didn't seem to require the utmost stealth, haha. Guitar cases are great but no guarantee against getting your rifle stolen as thieves like guitars as well, I would...

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    I use this case in 33" for my 18" folder: https://elitesurvival.com/collections/discreet-carry-cases/products/covert-operations-discreet-rifle-case?variant=39362933293224 It's a great quality case and pretty discreet, doesn't scream "rifle case!"

    Building out new dmr

    Craddock also has the CMT Arca rail with a steel barrel nut. It's not on the website but if you call him you can get one.

    Gloves: alternative to PIG gloves?

    I find the 0.5mm ones to be slippery AF. I got a pair to try a while ago as I've just been using Fastfits for years and chopping the trigger finger off. They're dexterous/tactile enough but just don't have enough grip for me. If they added some kind of grippy shit to the palm, they'd be great...

    MK 12 Picture & Discussion Thread

    What're your thoughts on the 3-18 Strike Eagle? I'm building a new .223 gas gun that is definitely not a Mk12 clone but same concept (precision AR but for field/practical use, not a bench/target/match setup). 20" Krieger Hbar and CMT arca rail. As I assemble the bits and pieces I've been...

    Nice rig! What optic are you currently running, is that a 3-18 Strike Eagle?

    MK262

    Tried 24.7gr N150 in my 18" gas gun yesterday. Shot a 10 rnd group side by side with a 10rnd group of what has been my go to load (22.8 IMR8208XBR). Both groups were identical in size with 9/10 rounds inside 1.5 moa and the 10th opening them up to 1.88 moa. The 8208 load is kinda slow (2590...

    Rifle Scopes optic choice for 20" hbar gas gun

    Another which optic for my precision gas gun thread... building a new rifle with a 20" Krieger hbar so should be a hammer. Main use will be targets out to max 800, DMR type matches, field shooting, maybe some deer hunting, etc. Will have an offset red dot for close in/night work. Currently have...

    MK262

    I got to do a bit of load dev with 75gr BTHPs loaded at mag length (2.260 COAL) today. First I shot a 5rnd control group with my current load which is loaded long. 24.7 N150 @ 1.935 BTO: 5rnds = 0.18 moa @ avg MV of 2935 fps Then I moved on to rounds loaded to AR mag length of 2.260 COAL...
