    Lewis machine and tool contact

    Re: Lewis machine and tool contact LMT has awesome customer service! I called the number that they list on the web site. Did not get a name but the lady that answered was very friendly and went above and beyond what I expected. Which is more than I can say for the "other" AR manufacturer I...

    Range Report two different calibers - one zero ?

    Re: two different calibers - one zero ? Other things play a role in a good zero, besides bullet drop. Machine tolerance and barrel harmonics effect zero at 100 more the drop. There is no way to calculate these other than shooting paper.

    IMR 8208 guys shooting 168's, what's your ES?

    Re: IMR 8208 guys shooting 168's, what's your ES? Rye, I played with 8208 in 2 of my AR's as well, (actually based off a recommendation from you). A couple of things I did notice was that is more temp sensitve than varget. Also it seemed to like to be ran very near max pressure. I noted a...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper PST 2.5-10x44 MOA

    Re: Vortex Viper PST 2.5-10x44 MOA I am happy with mine! Some time wish it had paralax adj as well, however the simplicity is what I like about it. I have used it up close and personal on hogs(to close for comfort), and shot steel out to 750m. It has been on both 5.56 and 7.62 ARs. It is...

    Reloading with the same weight bullet?

    Re: Reloading with the same weight bullet? Both the 300 SMK and Berger expand real nice. But you will have to fine tune your load. I would back down for safety sake and work back up.
