    Fieldcraft NV Defeating Paint

    Re: NV Defeating Paint Most "nylon" webbing/LBE and material used for combat uniforms has had IR suppressing finishes for years? At one time, the lack of such finishes on civvie bought kit was why it was frowned on in the British Army, but these days most of the better civvie stuff has it as...

    Auto GPS Units

    Re: Auto GPS Units MtGoat, Be careful with some of the NUvi units; to get all those realtime updates/information they use cellular updates. Basically the thing is its own cell phone and in the UK at least, you have to pay for the cellular service after the first year (first year is included...

    5.11 Rush 12 pack

    Re: 5.11 Rush 12 pack Chris, Thanks for that, but I'm not sure either bag is available locally to look over. That said, I'm not in any particular rush, so may wait until I come across one on my travels. Are you happy with the build quality of the 5.11 Rush 72? Any idea where its made? I...

    Boot Recommendation

    Re: Boot Recommendation I've not seen it mentioned, but working in this environment, wouldn't a boot or shoe with a safety toe cap be a good idea? These days there are lighter alternatives to the traditional steel toe cap that still offer a good degree of protection. A toe 'tecer is also a...

    5.11 Rush 12 pack

    As anybody used or seen the 5.11 Rush 12 packpack below? I'm looking for a slightly larger daysack to carry my shooting and hunting gear than my present Karrimor Delta 25 (25L). I like the pockets on the Rush 12, and its about the size I need (30L to 35L) as I want it to also double for...

    Cleaning Product "Wipe-Out" any opinions?

    Re: Cleaning Product "Wipe-Out" any opinions? I've had similar results with Wipe Out & Accelerator on my SS Howa. To be honest though my Howa rusts if somebody boils a kettle in the house! That said, I still use Wipe Out & Accelerator for cleaning, but patch the barrel dry afterwards and...

    Ballistics basic on an iTouch question

    Re: Ballistics basic on an iTouch question I'm not 100% positive but I think 0deg is equal to 12o'clock...Out of interest, try running the figures through for both scenarios as I have an idea you will get the same results.

    Re: Pics of where you shoot Sendero_man, Very nice looking set up you have there! I have a couple of places I can shoot out to maybe 400m, but none where i can set up a permanent bench. It would need to be all concrete and still the local scrotes would find a way to wreck it! Thanks...

    Re: Accuracy International AE, how...accurate? The AI's have a reputation for producing good accuracy in a bombproof package. I am sure there are better shooting rifles out there, but will they take the abuse an AI will? That said, I think they are overkill for the .308win and its in the...
