    Help pick first suppressed rifle

    As one who is relatively new to running suppressed, I can say once you go, it will be very hard to shoot without one. I only run 2 rifles unsuppressed, one is my KAC ACC with the MAMS muzzle brake. The other is my match rifle, an AI with an APA Lil Bastard brake. I own a SureFire SOCOM7.62RC2...

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce 7-35

    According to NF own web page, it’s not that much. Now, your scope may have that, but as I said, some folks are reporting more.

    Rifle Scopes New high power Nightforce NX8?

    I spent quite a bit of time with mine yesterday. I had it mounted on my KAC LPR. I did a 5X5 with it using Speer 75gr Gold Dots. That’s our duty ammo. I have spent a couple hundred rounds of time with the scope, and I really like it. I’ll say the parallax is a bit picky. I just think that’s a...

    Deciding on a Compass Lake Engineering chamber for a AR-15

    They are talking about CLE (Compass Lake Engineering) chambers, not CL (Chrome Lined). Totally different meaning. Not insulting ya, just wanted to advise so you would know why no one responded. Easy mistake to make.

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce 7-35

    NF is saying the 7-35 has 100moa or 29 mils of internal adjustment. The 5-25 has 120moa or 35 mils. So yes, on paper, you lose some adjustments. In reality though, folks are getting more than 29 mils on the 7-35. With a good 20 moa base, I’d wager the 7-35 should give around 18-20 mils of...

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce 7-35

    I’ve had mine for several months now. I’m not using that reticle, but the reticle doesn’t matter as long as YOU like it, and it fits your needs. I should say this: I have almost one of each ATACR NF does. From the 1-8, to the 7-35, all in F1. I have shot several local PRS style matches with my...

    Let’s talk Knights

    To echo 87stang: KAC barrels are absolutely money. They are cut rifled, 5 R match barrels. You aren’t going to outshoot one with too many aftermarket barrels. ALSO, to make an aftermarket barrel work would be an absolute PIA. The gas port/gas block is held on very different. The gas block is...

    Rifle Scopes New high power Nightforce NX8?

    Now that you mention it, I do seem like I’m adjusting the parallax more....hmmmm. I didn’t pay a ton of attention to it, because I have like 5 different NF scopes. From the 1-8 ATACR to the 7-35, and many in between. My point being, I’m always changing which gun/scope I shoot. I will pay more...

    Rifle Scopes Who wants to recommend me a scope? (sub $1k, med range, 6.5 Creedmoor)

    In that price range....all day I would go pre-owned Razor Gen II. I know you said $1000, but seriously, the Gen II Razor pinches way above its weight class, and can be had for just a bit more. The new NX8 series from NF are fantastic, but they are also $1500. If you REALLY are at $1K, I’d take a...

    Rifle Scopes New high power Nightforce NX8?

    I concur with Iowashooter. I have had the scope long enough to have played with it quite a bit. The one thing I have noticed is that the depth perception on the scope isn’t as strong as the ATACR’s. I THINK this is due to how short the scope is. It’s not horrible, not by a long shot, just...

    Rifle Scopes 300 Norma glass.

    Another vote for the NF ATACR 7-35. I have about one of each of the NF scopes, including 5-25 and 7-35 ATACR’s. I find them to be fantastic scopes. Converted over from S&B to NF. They are outstanding in every metric, to me. I think the 7-35 makes all the sense in the world on a .300 NM. You...

    Rifle Scopes New high power Nightforce NX8?

    I’m sorry man, they are all at work in my locker, and I’m San Diego bound for a week. By the time I’m back and they are in hand, someone else will likely answer. I’m not at all a FOV guy. I don’t know why, I just don’t care. I run low enough power to find my targets, then kick up the power as...

    Rifle Scopes New high power Nightforce NX8?

    I also lack any photo ability, HOWEVER, I would not hesitate to say at 4X and 6X, the reticle will be plenty useful as a normal duplex reticle. You will see the vertical and horizontal lines just fine. You won’t see the numbers, or the mil lines individually, you’ll see it as a line. I love...

    Rifle Scopes Target blurry when parallax set perfectly. NF ACTAR 7-35x56 F1

    I absolutely do not think the S&B 5-25 PMII is an upgrade at all. In fact, I traded my PMII for my ATACR. Now, as crazy as that sounds to YOU, is as silly as your statement sounds to me. Point is: everyone’s eyes see and focus different. One person’s “OMG” might be another’s “meh.” Some Other...

    Range Report Federal GMM 185gr Juggernaut

    The 185 Juggernaut is my absolute go to load for my SR-25’s. I don’t shoot.308 bolt guns, only in S/A. The 185 Juggernats allow me to get out to 1K still well above supersonic with my 16” Carbines. Between the Black Hills 175’s and the Federal 185 Juggernaut, that pretty well covers my .308...

    1st round of large frame questions

    Folks smarter than me about the S/A .308 (Jack Leuba Knight’s Armament) have stayed that by 16” you have full burn on a .308. KAC does a 16” Carbine and a 20” Rifle. By default, I have several 16” guns. I have gone to 1000yds with a 16” gun several times, but it’s VERY ammo sensitive. For 800...

    Reliable, in-expensive AR10 mags recommendations?

    AR10 with 6.5 Upper showing signs of overpressure

    Same here with the Superlative Arms Gas Block. I put that on mine when I installed the barrel. Not a single issue shooting suppressed or unsuppressed. I most definitely think the AGB is a necessity for the 6.5CM. So far, mine shoots sub MOA with the 140 ELD-M, BUT loves the 143 ELD-X. It’s...
