    Rifle Scopes Which one for 10x? IOR Valdada or SWFA SS HD

    Rifle Platform: Armalite AR10; 175gr SMK Ranges: 100 to 300yd commonly; but not over 600yd. Purpose: Accurate, tactical-style shooting at paper. Occasional load development for AR15 & AR10 at 100yds. I've narrowed my choices to a fixed 10x42 Tactical 30mm Riflescope. The two I'd like help...

    Recommend a powder similar to Varget

    Re: Recommend a powder similar to Varget As a long time user of Reloder-15, I really think the temperature issue is overrated. In the M118 Long Range adaption, a 175gr Sierra Matchking bullet is used over Reloder 15. Don't you think the American snipers get the best mix of components? Here...

    m1a accuracy

    Re: m1a accuracy Like the battle rifle fielded before it, the M14 was not developed to be an MOA gun, but it can be 'smithed to shoot exceedingly well. I had one for awhile in the '90s that was done by Clint Fowler of Virgina. Springfield used to build decent rifles when GI parts were...

    Expensive Novice Mistake

    Re: Expensive Novice Mistake Curious, I never imagined NOT dumping the powder measure out. Powder is soo expensive, I try to save every grain. As to your accident, I don't think there is a reloading mistake that hasn't been made before. Glad yours did not end in injury.

    Rifle Scopes Trijicon Warranty

    I have a Trijicon ACOG. While there is nothing wrong with it at this time, I just read the fine print at their site, and I see that the Lifetime Warranty is limited to the original owner. A lot of companies make that stipulation <span style="font-style: italic">on paper</span>, but IRL, to...

    Gunsmithing New barrel chamber issue

    I recently rebarreled my AR-15 upper. The barrel was made from a Douglas premium air gaged 1:7 blank, with a .223 wylde chamber. A new bolt was headspaced to the chamber. All work done by a reputable shop, but I decline to name them as I'm not looking to complain. I have shot the rifle with a...

    Re: Which Cabala's inexpensive 5.56mm ammo? Thanks to everyone for the suggestions. I have ordered enough Ultramax to keep us shooting until my my reloading gets up and going again.

    Which Cabala's inexpensive 5.56mm ammo?

    So, the g/f just bought a Sig Sauer M400 Enhanced, and wants to shoot it soon! GREAT! Not so great - I've got nothing in my 5.56mm reloading 'pipeline' at this time for a new rifle breakin / testing. But I DO have a bunch of Cabela's points, and a store nearby. So predicating that, which of...

    Who do you think is making these barrels.

    Re: Who do you think is making these barrels. I want to thank everyone that has contributed to the conversation. I've made my decision, and while it is quite a turn from my original quest, I'm very excited about it. After some thought, I realized that coming from a 1:7 20" barrel HBAR, I...
