    Rifle Scopes Acog Optical Quality

    Shit. How do I tell if it's a knock off?

    Rifle Scopes Acog Optical Quality

    I recently lucked into an Acog for cheap. Not sure which model, it has the Docter reflex sight toward the rear. I was comparing resolution & image quality with two other 4X scopes, a Leatherwood CMR, and a Weaver 30mm 1.5x4 illuminated dot reticle, both of which, beat the Acog significantly in...

    Loads for 30-06

    Not at all insulted. You are right. I hoped that the words "potential" and "preliminary" would give the impression that an informal, and less than scientific act had occurred. One shot of each charge weight at an individual 1" square, and taking note of which charge weights grouped near the...

    Loads for 30-06

    Actually, I don't know how to list the velocities one per line. One shot per charge node, and there are no pictures of the groups.

    Loads for 30-06

    Tested some PP4000MR with 208Amax yesterday. New 26" Criterion "Rem-Age" SS, 1/10, 4 groove barrel, varmint profile. Short throated, my 208Amax only measured 3.388 to the lands, testing OAL was at 3.368". All loads using once fired Rem Brass, annealed, and flash hole uniformed, CCI BR primers...

    Lowlight Made Me Cry . . . . . .

    I like how the group is on paper, yet the banging of steel is heard, every other shot. Since Lowlight cannot yet roll over in his grave, at the prospect of his site being potentially overrun by Tacti-culls, mall ninjas, and ARFCOM refuse, he does the next best thing. Making a satire of those who...

    DPMS GII 308 rifles

    I have the AP4 G2. PRI adjustable gas block has it REAL close to a stiff 5.56 round, recoil wise. My experience with the Armalite version of this rifle, is that there is too much barrel whip on these pencil barrel .308s for the handguard to have that small of an inside diameter, causing contact...

    18" SPR Barrel Choice

    AR Performance 18" fluted SPR 3gun barrel, 4150 CMV, Wylde chamber, 5R rifling, Melonite inside & out, rifle length gas. 5/8 x 24 muzzle thread. Same velocities, and just as accurate as my RRA NM barrel, recoils like a pellet rifle.

    Fed .300WM brass, HE added to headstamp?

    Damn. I've been handloading for so long, I've never heard of that. Thanks.

    Fed .300WM brass, HE added to headstamp?

    Anyone seen, or know why the letters HE would be added to the headstamp on my .300wm Federal brass?

    Gunsmithing Aftermarket AR10 barrel headspace issue

    So I got it figured out. The DPMS bolt & carrier closed on the go gauge, and almost on the no go gauge in the Armalite rifle. I have suspicion that the used Rock 5r barrel was intended for an LR.308. I have 100rds through the gun now with no issues, and have piece of mind concerning the...

    300 Win Mag Brass type and WTB

    I just fired off an order to Everglades Ammunition & Reloading. $35.00 per 50, once fired military, mostly Federal.

    Building my 1st AR15. SPR-ish gun. Update.. Looking for a trigger now?

    I bought an AR Performance 18" 4150CM fluted .223 Wylde chambered hybrid 5R melonited 3gun barrel for $289.00. They thread the muzzle at 5/8x24 which they claim increases accuracy. With standard Magpul MOE handguards, it easily prints MOA with all ammo I've run through it. They have 16"...

    Gunsmithing Aftermarket AR10 barrel headspace issue

    I apologize in advance if I am breaking the "No talking to yourself" rule, but since there are over 100 views, some may find this interesting. I went to a friend's house yesterday and we tried to chamber a .308Win field gauge (1.638") into the above mentioned rifle, using the bolt & carrier from...

    Lightest Varmint bullet for a 1/8 .223 ?

    I think that depends on how fast you push them, and how the bullet was constructed. I was pushing a 50gr Hornady SPSX at 3200fps out of a 1/9 24" AR15, and only half of them made it to the target.

    5R 300winmag

    Hey Aimsmall, I have a 30" Rock 5R and have been following most of your stuff that pertains to .300WM. Your posts have been pretty helpful in my load development for this rifle, and I read that you are diggin' that 208 Amax with about 72gr of Power Pro 4000mr, but lost you after that. I am about...

    2650fps fossible with a 175gr in 18" .308?

    If I were trying to accomplish this, and going to an 18" barrel meant that much to me, then I would; A - Get an adjustable gas block. B - Use 2000mr powder. C - Have different buffers and springs on hand to smooth out cycling when accommodating higher pressures. I walk around and get in & out of...

    AR 10 Barrels

    Criterion is putting out some decent barrels for the LR.308 DPMS pattern rifles. I have an Armalite AR10 carbine with a lightweight chrome lined barrel, and want the Criterion version with the rifle length gas port. I would need to drop extra cash for the DPMS pattern bolt & carrier group.

    Gunsmithing Aftermarket AR10 barrel headspace issue

    So, when my .308 win field gauge (1.638") and my 7.62x51 NATO field gauge (1.6455") show up, and If I do indeed suffer from excessive head space, would I need to remove the barrel extension, shorten the barrel shank, then re-chamber to keep the gas port & extension timed correctly? Gunsmithing...

    Palmetto State Armory , anybody shooting one?

    Is it just me, or does anyone else notice the quick change in camera angle just before every firing? Run the gun over, then walk over, pick it up and shoot it without changing the camera view, then I'm sold. I know they sell good shit, but the competitive market requires them to feed us this...
