    Rim-x Build in progress, which ammo brands (wax) play well together

    What you’re saying makes sense. I’ve had rimfire firearms before and never thought about what ammo I was shooting. Now that I’m having a nice rifle built, I was checking about what ammo to run, and remembered something about not mixing different lube types whiteout cleaning, but now I see it...

    Rim-x Build in progress, which ammo brands (wax) play well together

    I have a Rim-x action and a 22" Green Mountain barrel coming, and I was wondering which ammo brands have the same or similar enough lube that they can be shot without any major cleaning in between. I've read snippets about this, so I was just checking. I have a brick of Center-X, and might try...

    SOLD Manners T2-A Elite Highland Camo

    I'm not home to check it, and I don't have a postal scale to get an accurate weight. It's not heavy, I'm guessing just under 4 pounds, but I'll try to get a weight tomorrow. Scott

    416 Hellfire on a 1.47" BAT CT

    Anyone ever built a 416 Hellfire on a BAT CT? I'm building a 33xc on a 1.47" CT in a Manners ELR light stock. Just wondering if I should pick up a Cheytac bolt to also camber a barrel in Hellfire. I have a 25 pound 416 Barrett and the recoil isn't bad at all. I'm wondering what the recoil of...

    SOLD Sold locally MPA build 6.5x47L $1500 Shipped conus

    As far as I know, it does not. Stiller Tac 30 is similar in setup to a Rem700 Pinned recoil lug. It’s not a Curtis Custom action Scott

    SOLD Sold locally MPA build 6.5x47L $1500 Shipped conus

    Tangent 5-25 or new Schmidt 6-36

    ok yeah, JTAC is $4800 now? I kind of wanted JTAC, but I didn't want to spend the extra $400 for that lol. I think I'll be very happy with the Gen3xr DTII+ turrets are amazing. Scott

    Tangent 5-25 or new Schmidt 6-36

    I would say no, not $1k better. It was only $400 more than the SB? They were both on sale, and still are, I believe. I absolutely love my SB especially with the DTII+, and I felt like I was cheating lol. $400 is still a lot of money... that's a Spuhr mount, but I wanted to try TT turrets...

    Tangent 5-25 or new Schmidt 6-36

    I was at Eurooptic last week to check out the SB 6-36x GR2ID and TT 5-25P with the Gen3XR. I'm no expert at evaluating optics, but I'm not exactly telling you what you don't already know I currently have a pair of the SB 5-25x DTII+ GR2ID and another older PMII 5-25 with H2CMR so I do love SB...

    Reloading setup in climate controlled storage unit

    Yes, I'm looking to bridge the gap, and hopefully will have a new home in 8 months or a year, so that's why I'm wondering. I'm in PA, so it's not too bad, but the more I think about it, the more i think I'll try another route. Thanks, Scott

    Reloading setup in climate controlled storage unit

    Thanks for the responses.... A 5x10' is listed as $46 a month, but who knows if that's a bait and switch, but looks like it's under $100 a month anyway Yep, just spitballing ideas. My brother is 2 hours away, my parents are 3 hours away... they could work. I load .223, 6.5x47, 7 saum, 338...

    Reloading setup in climate controlled storage unit

    Anyone ever setup for reloading in a climate controlled storage facility? Circumstances are such that I won't have room at home for loading for up to another year, so I was wondering about this... A 5x10 unit would work well. Security is a concern, as well as electricity to run a powder...

    SB Ultra short 3-20 for ELR

    yep I understand, and I'm usually under 20x, just that I never see anyone use the us, but I guess there are a lot fewer us in the wild anyway. I was mostly asking since it seemed non traditional. thanks, Scott

    SB Ultra short 3-20 for ELR

    Anyone ever use Schmidt Bender ultra shorts on their ELR rifles? I run their 5-25 pmII and was wondering if their are any drawbacks using the US design. I'm usually running less than 18x anyway, and mostly use full power to zero. The lighter scope also seems like it would be good for making...

    ELR Optic (800-2200 yards) Opinions

    You can always add a magnifying glass to see your turrets better... the SB LT turrets? If it's just on an ELR gun, you won't be dialing like you would in a PRS match, so the turrets shouldn't be as big of a factor. The NF 7-35 glass is excellent, and some say better than the NF 5-25x. I don't...
