    Anyone here using the Hornady A tip bullets? (.308)

    4064, varget and rl15 are your friends with 168 to 178 grain bullets. RL15 is temp sensitive and what works when it's cool outside may be over pressure when it gets hot. Don't discount the 155 eld bullets, they have a very respectable bc and you can get them moving pretty fast.

    Burris XTR2-best scope option for around 500 bucks?

    And that is exactly why the "how good is the glass" questions are useless. What I see through the scope isn't at all what you see and vice versa. I don't doubt for a moment what you say. I suffered from a mixed astigmatism in my right eye (part of my eye was near sighted, part far sighted)...

    Burris XTR2-best scope option for around 500 bucks?

    The xtr 2 was never known for good glass. It competed with the original PST. Both made in the Philippines. PST had better glass, shim style zero stop. XTR built like a tank, real zero stop. Serviceable glass. Decent in the 2-10 and 3-15, struggled in the 4-20 and not very good in the 5-25.

    Talk me out of an Athlon Cronus 4.5-29

    I have the Chronus, it is a very decent scope. It does everything well. I have better scopes, I have worse scopes. Athlon makes a good product. If you can spring for the extra dough, the S3 is a better scope. FWIW, the tract toric 4.5-30 is only about 100 bucks more. The S3 is about 700 more...

    Scope for Hunting Rig

    Kinda hard to argue with the 4-16 atacr. The mk 4 4.5-18 might be worth a look. I just picked up a March FX 4.5-28 on sale at eurooptic.com for not much more than the atacr. Haven't had an opportunity to run it through it's paces yet. The NF 2.5-20 is an attractive option. The Leica AMPLUS...

    So a private for profit corporation writes policy for most police departments

    Do they write policies? Yes. Based on best practices. Stunning revelation, since most department policies are available online or will be provided by s simple FOIA request. So, the write policy with no input from agencies? Really, show your proof they they do not solicit or accept feedback...

    Decisions, decisions

    For less than 2500, you can get into the Tract, Maven and Delta Stryker scopes with coin left over. All three are very well made Japanese manufactured optics. Great tracking, good glass.

    Since this thread is 5 years old, it is likely he has either moved on to something else or made his decision. Although, you can't be certain, I have been afflicted with analysis paralysis on more than one occassion and it sometimes take a very long while to make that final decision.

    Anyone have the details on the event that triggered the CZ600 recall?

    You ask why the recall, the recall is because the product Is a piece of shit. The product is a piece of shit because management is shit.

    Anyone have the details on the event that triggered the CZ600 recall?

    The reason for the recall is that CZ, a once proud, innovative company that made excellent firearms, bought out Colt firearms,a dying American Company run by fucking morons that bankrupted Colt twice. Then CZ put those same Colt guys in charge of CZUSA in order to run that organization into the...
