    Hunting & Fishing Eberlestock H31 Bandit?

    The deer isn't going to care or comment on your camo choice, especially from inside a blind. Most places we kill deer wearing bright orange vests and hats ;) I love my Eberlestock bag. But its a bit bigger. I like the extra room for layers. Ive got a bit of a hike into my spot, so I go in with...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Recommend a Knife Sharpening Kit

    I think Smiths of Arkansas makes the tool I use. Plastic body with a cap that turns into a better handle, dual sided coarse/fine. Ive used one for over 10 years now and it still puts an edge on. Probably cost 15-20 bucks.

    Training Courses CLOSED: Someone take my spot at the Spearpoint Ranch (KS) extreme long range training class (9/13-9/14)

    That's an awesome range too. Bunkhouse is great. Wish I was free that weekend.

    Training Courses CQB or SUT class.

    I'm pretty sure that thing was meant for MILES. Its made by another guy, not S&S.

    Training Courses CQB or SUT class.

    You've got options. Look up S&S Training Solutions, they utilize MILES (military laser simulators that are utilize AR rifles and blanks). They are "normal" dudes, the owners are an infantry veteran and a squared away civilian shooter. In the interest of honesty, I am a instructor with them as...

    Advanced Marksmanship Gen 2 PST turret zero help

    I'm not certified on the technicalities, so here goes. There is a widget in your scope that aint working right. Email Vortex and a nice man will explain it far better than I can. Then you will take the scope apart one step further than setting your zero stop, unfuck it, and put it back together...

    Advanced Marksmanship Gen 2 PST turret zero help

    @Simple10- It sounds like your zero stop has slipped timing. If you email Vortex, they will send you a video on how to fix it, it is quite simple once you see it.

    Rifle Scopes Gen2 PST 5x25 issues?

    The zero stop on my Gen II PST 5-25 slipped out of time. It was slipping about half a mil past where the zero stop should have been stopping it. Called Vortex, and one of their guys immediately emailed me a simple video on how to reset it. I think I induced the malfunction by trying to rezero...

    Hearing protection...

    I just wear a regular foam ear plug or Surefire ear plug in my right ear under my electronic ear pro. If my muffs get bumped off that ear, no worries. I'm sure there is a way to throw money at this problem and fix it, but I'm running 40 dollar Howard Leights that have worked for the last 7 years...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex customer sevice

    I had an issue with my Viper PST Gen II slipping past the zero stop. Gave them a call, and within 5 minutes I had a video in my email on how to re-time my zero stop. Too easy.

    What are your needs? "Body armor" means different things to different people.

    Shorty 308 velocities?

    I get 2500 from my 20 inch shooting 175 FGMM.

    Starting out

    Just shoot. Get a good scope that you can put on your next, better rifle. Maybe get a good shooting bag or two that help you make a good shooting position. Spend money on good ammo that actually lets you see if you made the shot right, not junk that has you wondering if you know what you are...

    Hello From Kansas

    What @260284 said. You are in a good place for precision rifle. I did a match a couple weeks ago at Spearpoint. Kick ass range, and real good folks. Welcome from KCMO. Hopefully see you on the range some time.

    Getting started for under $1K?

    Also, .308 brass is so cheap, annealing isn't worth it to me. Your budget may vary.

    Getting started for under $1K?

    I got an analog caliper for 30 something bucks. It works. I started with a Lee single stage kit. I immediately went out and bought a Hornady scale for about 30 bucks, and a trickler for just a small amount. I still use the Lee powder thrower. As was said earlier, set it to throw light, and...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper PST ...checks all the boxes?

    It should handle your needs. Just make sure you check your zero stop screws, and turret cap screws. Mine have a tendency to walk out a bit after a long day. You probably don't NEED the illuminated reticle. But its not a bad thing to have either. I am one of four in my group of shooting...

    What did you do in the reloading room today?

    This was the first time Ive tried to full length size .308 in a couple months. I think I may not have gotten my die in far enough, and the shoulder was too long. Going to give it another shot after I get my rifle back this weekend. I loaned it to a friend for a competition.

    What did you do in the reloading room today?

    I got to pull 48 rounds apart because somehow I messed up and the bolt wouldn't close on them.
