    Howa 1500 builds **post them**

    @Harman117 The 4 round group measured 1.25”. The first 10 rounds were magtech 150gr and used to sight in. The second 10 were Federal GMM 168gr. I fired two 3 round groups and one 4 round group. I’m kind of at a loss because I can shoot my 6.5 into 1/2” - 3/4” groups consistently. But then...

    Howa 1500 builds **post them**

    Purchased the Hogue version of the Howa 1500 in 308 with 24" barrel. Immediately removed the stock and swapped for KRG Bravo. The Hogue stock and bottom metal are available for cheap if anyone wants it. - KRG Bravo - Burris XTR 25 MOA Rail (bedded) - HACT Trigger Job - 1.5 coils cut - Vortex...

    Gun Safe

    I went with their largest model..... https://www.sturdysafe.com/ They actually use plate steel for the entire safe, not folded over sheet metal like my dads Liberty. It was pricey, but I wanted something that would withstand a burglary attempt and ensure my collection remained safe.

    Gear Bag

    I use one of my old patrol bags for flat range work. They are often on sale and I picked it up for $20 years ago. It survived being taken in and out of patrol cars every day and now serves as my long range shooting bag. https://lapolicegear.com/lapg-operator-patrol-bag.html It’s large enough...

    Howa Discussion

    I just picked up a new Howa 1500 308 for $350 from a local gun shop and found a used KRG Bravo for $350. As long as it can shoot FGMM under 1” I’ll be a happy camper. Took the HACT trigger down to 1-1.5 pounds and scope base and rings are in the mail. Once I get it all put together I’ll post...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold MK5 or Nightforce NX8 for AR10?

    You're absolutely right. Now if only I can find one locally to look through and make a final decision!

    Rifle Scopes Leupold MK5 or Nightforce NX8 for AR10?

    @FALex that seems to be a common consensus around here. My only hesitation is that the NX8 line is fairly new and hasn’t been vetted by consumers just yet.

    6.5 Hornady American Gunner

    These groups are form this morning. The AG 140gr continues to perform well! Out of 8 separate 5 shot groups the best was .69” and the worst was 1.13” at 103 yards. The rest were right at 3/4” and that’s about normal for 5 shot groups. 3 round groups are generally within 1/2” but I can’t stay...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold MK5 or Nightforce NX8 for AR10?

    True. I'd love to get my hands on both locally to see how they look to me eye.

    Rifle Scopes How many of you folks here use a 22lr trainer?

    I have a Savage FV-SR in a Boyds Tacticool stock and some Vortex glass. It's fun watching the extreme arc on bullet trace when it's visible but wind is definitely a kill joy. It's a good way for me to practice fundamentals and ensure I don't develop a flinch. It's also fun to just shoot a quiet...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold MK5 or Nightforce NX8 for AR10?

    Very well articulated response!!! All valid points and you're right, it's ultimately a personal choice as to which categories are most important to the shooter. Would it be wise to hold off and wait for the release of the XTR before making a decision?

    Rifle Scopes Leupold MK5 or Nightforce NX8 for AR10?

    Good evening gents, I've been reading and trying to absorb as much information as possible from this site. There's a tremendous amount of solid info on here, and I really appreciate the shared knowledge of this community. I have an AR10 308 build with a 20" barrel that is in need of some good...

    Any chance you can take some pics and post them in here? I’ve been eyeing those bolt handles.

    30 cal barrel length question

    I had the same issue when building my AR10. I decided to split the difference and go with a 20” Wilson Combat barrel and that seems to be the sweet spot as far as keeping the gun agile while still maintaining long range capabilities.
