    Spotters Vortex Fury HD 5000 questions… Also AB model $999 currently from Scheels

    I've used a pair for the past 3 years, for field matches and hunting. I've thought they were easily the best value in a set of LRF binos with a full solver for a while and at $999 that's a total no-brainer.

    Tangoinnos Fire4000

    It kinda depends if it needs to be tethered/paired at all times in order to give you dope or if you could just transfer the environmentals (and lock them) and then just pair and update every few hours or so (or as you feel temps change drastically). Has anyone hinted at a price point?

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    To guns guys sure, we can pick up on what is a gun case, generally speaking. Guy was just asking for a soft case for his shorty, didn't seem to require the utmost stealth, haha. Guitar cases are great but no guarantee against getting your rifle stolen as thieves like guitars as well, I would...

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    I use this case in 33" for my 18" folder: https://elitesurvival.com/collections/discreet-carry-cases/products/covert-operations-discreet-rifle-case?variant=39362933293224 It's a great quality case and pretty discreet, doesn't scream "rifle case!"

    Building out new dmr

    Craddock also has the CMT Arca rail with a steel barrel nut. It's not on the website but if you call him you can get one.

    Gloves: alternative to PIG gloves?

    I find the 0.5mm ones to be slippery AF. I got a pair to try a while ago as I've just been using Fastfits for years and chopping the trigger finger off. They're dexterous/tactile enough but just don't have enough grip for me. If they added some kind of grippy shit to the palm, they'd be great...

    MK 12 Picture & Discussion Thread

    What're your thoughts on the 3-18 Strike Eagle? I'm building a new .223 gas gun that is definitely not a Mk12 clone but same concept (precision AR but for field/practical use, not a bench/target/match setup). 20" Krieger Hbar and CMT arca rail. As I assemble the bits and pieces I've been...

    MK262

    Tried 24.7gr N150 in my 18" gas gun yesterday. Shot a 10 rnd group side by side with a 10rnd group of what has been my go to load (22.8 IMR8208XBR). Both groups were identical in size with 9/10 rounds inside 1.5 moa and the 10th opening them up to 1.88 moa. The 8208 load is kinda slow (2590...

    Rifle Scopes optic choice for 20" hbar gas gun

    Another which optic for my precision gas gun thread... building a new rifle with a 20" Krieger hbar so should be a hammer. Main use will be targets out to max 800, DMR type matches, field shooting, maybe some deer hunting, etc. Will have an offset red dot for close in/night work. Currently have...

    MK262

    I got to do a bit of load dev with 75gr BTHPs loaded at mag length (2.260 COAL) today. First I shot a 5rnd control group with my current load which is loaded long. 24.7 N150 @ 1.935 BTO: 5rnds = 0.18 moa @ avg MV of 2935 fps Then I moved on to rounds loaded to AR mag length of 2.260 COAL...

    6.5 Creedmoor

    What's your distance base to ogive at a COAL of 2.875? I use N555 as well but 43.5 seems pretty hot. I use 42.6 in Lapua brass with 140 ELDMs ay 2.200" base to ogive. Gives me 2730 in a 24" pipe and almost 2700 in an 18" pipe (which seems hot to me so will be working up a new load when I get...

    Go to handguard for precision build on forged upper

    Do you know if the BCM MCMR clears a Superlative Arms AGB?

    How are the CMT HDM ARCA rails?

    Resurrecting this thread as I'm interested in the CMT Arca handguard. Any confirmation that it fits the SA agb with no contact under firing? How's the handguard for poi shift going from bipod prone to shooting off bags?

    Go to handguard for precision build on forged upper

    Yeah, in this case I'm really just trying to do what I can with a regular receiver, as nice as the LMT are.

    Go to handguard for precision build on forged upper

    Any poi shift going from prone to tripod or bag at the magwell with either of those? I have a large frame with the MI Combat Rail, I'm gonna test that and see. If it has minimal shift then I might just grab another one for this build.

    Go to handguard for precision build on forged upper

    Yeah, zeroing in the middle of the shift makes sense, or zeroing prone and knowing the offset for positional, lotsa ways to skin that cat. I'm not expecting no shift like with a monolithic upper but the more I can minimize it, the better. I also think you are a correct in that the further out...

    Same results with the JP mk3 and their Mlok handguard?
