    Yeah I’ll probably never get to judge the barrel life of this particular rifle because it’s a 308. Lol

    Not bad at all with about 20 rounds down it before shooting this work up. All 5 shot groups. 178 bthp with accurate 2460 powder which is a little fast. I have no doubts it’ll tighten up with 4064 or varget. Fuckin scammers! Even used their piece of shit optic.

    I’m getting the feeling you might not be able to afford a barrel because your education is lacking and there for you can only buy things with food stamps. They might take them not sure. Your paranoia of everything being a scam is also reflective of antisocial personality disorder. Same with your...

    How the fuck do you know it’s a piece of shit company? Did you try one, or are you just a fuckin blow hard? It’s a fuckin barrel and it shoots. What makes that a piece of shit? Go fuck yourself, I could care less if you like the company, my barrel shoots and I’ll probably buy more. I did the...

    Yup, if you buy the nitride treated barrel. Any cartridge they have a reamer for if the barrel is nitrided. Believe me when Mike told me he was going to give a lifetime guarantee I had 100 questions like the ones you’re asking.

    Rifle Scopes Athlon Midas Glass Quality Equivalents?

    My 6-24 helos gen2 has better eyebox, eye relief, better parallax sensitivity(less sensitive) and better glass than my Arken ep5, ep4 and sh4 . It is definitely a step up in quality over them.

    Yep, I reiterated that several times with the owner and he said yes if you buy the nitride treated barrel which I did.

    I did not, I can probably find out what one weighs though. I’ll reach out to Mike the owner.

    26” 178 bthp and eld right now, probably around 2700ish I haven’t checked velocity yet because my magnetto sporter won’t work with the 1.2” barrel profile. I picked up a CED millennium 2 chrony to get velocity with, just haven’t found the time. I might give something on the 200-208 grain range...

    Arken EP5 vs Vortex Viper PST Gen II

    I personally wouldn’t spend the extra money over the Arken, but there are some quirks I don’t like. The Arken eye box is sensitive, the parallax on my particular model needs constant adjusting to keep it clear and parallax free. I had a chance to compare my two arkens with a Athlon helos gen 2...

    Chamber question

    Does it feed well? If you get a chamber too smooth you lose grip on the brass and can give you false pressure signs. A cross hatch finish like on piston cylinder walls is about ideal. If it feeds without sticking it’s fine. If brass sticks while trying to eject, you can deburr with a dowel rod...

    Find ya a used swfa 20x the glass isn’t ideal for 20x but I don’t see it being any worse than the ones you listed.

    Vortex Razor 3-18x vs Vortex PST 5-25x for 6.5 CM

    I was up to thunder valley with a crimson trace series 5 3-18x50 scope and had no problem shooting at the mile plate. If you’re stuck on those two, the razor is going to be superior even with lower mag. As mentioned there are some worthy contenders in your price range. The xtr3 is making a big...

    NRL22 XTR IIIi 3.3-18 vs 5.5-30

    I got the American made 5.5-30 and I’ll probably pick up another one since they can be had for 1k$ used. I haven’t handled a scope in that price range that I like better. Don’t let the Philippine made scare you, their factory over there has been putting out rock solid xtr2s for years. Aside from...

    They have their own prefits. I’m running a remage 1-8 twist 308 from their sister company outlier. It’s shooting great, several sub moa groups across several charge weights and different powders. Nitride treated, 1.2” straight taper diameter heavy flutes. Hand lapped with a lifetime warranty if...

    Cleaned my lenses, now I think they’re ruined?

    I had some suspicion about their service. I tagged this post because I honestly wasn’t expecting it to go the OPs way. I’ve heard bushy doesn’t go out of their way to help the customer on items they don’t necessarily have to. In their defense, it’s been a few years since I read that.

    I have the helos 6-24 gen2 34mm and a ep5 and the helos gives up nothing to the Arken. It’s got slightly better glass and really good turrets. The glass in the gen 2 series’s is not the same glass as the argos/helos gen 1s. The helos is priced higher than the Arken so it’s to be expected. If I...
