    Rifle Scopes New high power Nightforce NX8?

    Man, that is a great question, I took some time to think it over. I have certainly taken 1000yd shots with my 4-16. I used my 4-16 on this exact LPR during the match that Jack Leuba and Ash Hess from Knight’s Armament put on at The Arena in Georgia in March. I was regularly engaging out to 700...

    Rifle Scopes New high power Nightforce NX8?

    Hahahaha, saw that. Already fixed it today. Scope is now on my KAC LPR, where it will likely stay. Looks SUPER good on the KAC. Talk about an awesome SPR/ DMR scope. I love that I can now really stretch out the 18" barrel of my LPR. Ok, so when I took the scope out today, I also took out my...

    Rifle Scopes New high power Nightforce NX8?

    I will be heading into work early today, as my scope arrived!!!!! Woooo-Hoooo!! Literally been waiting since SHOT Show for these bad boys. Initial impressions: eye box seems really good. Surprisingly so for an 8X erector. Glass is too subjective to even worry about. It’s NF HD glass, you can...

    Copper fouling questions

    Interesting. I’m curious to see how this shakes out. I haven’t shot a factory barrel in a precision rifle in over 20 years. I’m interested in knowing how this goes.

    Rifle Scopes 20 Moa Mount with 20 Moa Rail will it work?

    Not anything I would do. AT ALL. As an example, my 6.5CM pushing a Hornady 140 ELD-M @ 2800 FPS gets to 1K in 7.9 mils. Get to 1300 in 12.4 mils. Those are solid numbers, not guessing. I just absolutely don’t see a need to compress my springs up that much. Also, as stated above, when you get...

    What gas gun to suppress?

    I run ALL of my KAC guns suppressed 100% of the time. My SR-15’s and my 25’s. They run flawlessly suppressed or unsuppressed. If that is your priority, KAC all the way.

    Optimal Center of Mass?

    Using heavier stocks has been a pretty popular way to balance out AR’s for a while. With my 18” KAC LPR, and a suppressor, and Atlas bi-pod, the front is very heavy. Using a MagPul PRS stock has really balanced out the gun. The added weight has really been awesome on the light recoiling 5.56...

    AIAT dovetail spigot

    Ok. Not sure what this does that my Sawtooth ARCA Swiss Rail doesn’t. Not knocking it, just don’t see the use. My ARCA allows me to position my bi-pod from there, to almost touching the magazine. Options are good I suppose.

    Range Report Best match ammo for 5.56 bolt gun?

    It is an absolute MK262 clone load. Will probably. Shoot just fine. In my experience, and the experience of several guys I know, true 5.56 loads are not USUALLY as accurate as a good .223 load. IDK if it’s the powder, or the overall length, or the pressure/velocity, but it’s the truth for me...

    Range Report Best match ammo for 5.56 bolt gun?

    Good to know Sir. Thank you. While I’m not a bolt gun 5.56 shooter, that could change. ? Thanks for the heads up.

    Range Report Best match ammo for 5.56 bolt gun?

    Black Hills 77gr TMK are about the highest BC you’ll find in a 5.56 meant to be shot in an AR-15. You can get heavier pills, but I think they’re more for the .224 Valkyrie. If you’re looking for something factory to buy and shoot, I’d look at the Black Hills. That is the MK262 round, but...

    Building a 223 precision AR...barrel?

    In regards to Bartlein vs Kreiger....flip a coin. I can say on my precision bolt guns I use all Bartlein. They are hammers. I shot a match Saturday and my AI with my Bartlein was VERY consistent and predictable. That said, my KAC with its 18” Kreiger is my most accurate small frame AR-15...

    Building a 223 precision AR...barrel?

    Craddock may be great, I’ve always heard good things about his/ their work. My experience lies with Compass Lake. They can spin you up a Bartlein, a Douglas, a Kreiger, or a Hart’s I believe. The CLE chamber is said to be another aspect of their accuracy. My buddy has a 18” CLE in his AR, and it...

    What are best mags to use in Accuracy International AT?

    I’ve been shooting my AI AT in 6.5CM for going on 2 years in competition. Stock AI mags, as stated, are the gold standard in mag performance. I, knock on wood, have NEVER had a magazine related issue while competing. That says a lot since we are moving, shooting off rooftops, tires, you name it...

    6mmCreed for the wife?

    The 6CM is likely the very best way for you to go. In my experience, it is incredibly accurate. Here’s my 6CM story: I have an AI and shoot 6.5CM 90% of the time. I compete a little, and my AI with a Bartlein barrel is really honestly a .58-.6 moa gun. I got the bug to play with a 6CM. Not a...

    Rifle Scopes Have both which one do I mount? vortex ,Bushnell

    I read the OP and I can’t help but think of a 14 year old on his parents computer. Sounds like someone TRYING to sound cool. “Hey, I know, I’ll get on SH and make a cool post....” Man, WTF does FFP and hunting have to do with what scope you should keep ?? I’m smelling a troll.
