    Does it do this with all of your mags or just this one? Could be the mag is just too far on one side of a set of stacked tolerances. Or, the front end of the feed lips is maybe a bit snug. A little judicious bending will let the round pivot upwards at the bullet end. Be careful to not overdo it...

    Night Vision [SOLD] PVS-30 GP, Black body, with bag + optional 3deg Kiji w/ remote switch.

    I bought 4x PVS-30's earlier in the year. After selling off one of my rifles this unit is now surplus to my needs. Purchased this one from OwnTheNight.com in February 2022. <2hrs total on the tube. Looks and functions as new. Takes CR123 or single AA battery. Comes with soft case and light...

    Maggie’s A handful of hard men

    I'm proud to call a number of those vets friends. Even when they're 70 years old those boys are a different sort.

    You think you be hunting,but maybe you be the hunted.

    Not until after they looked at the photos.

    You think you be hunting,but maybe you be the hunted.

    I seem to recall another one which had the braai in frame but this is the only one I can find.

    You think you be hunting,but maybe you be the hunted.

    If you want to hunt while being hunted there's a whole continent for that kind of thing. Somewhere I have a picture of a few guys on a hunting trip in southern Africa sitting around the braai pit enjoying the bush tv and not noticing that what they can't see is the 6 lionesses about 20m from...

    Looking for Consensus on Steiner S35

    You can find other stuff in the same price range and with a 640 core, used and likely broken. I have the C35's but the major difference is really that one has a crosshair in the display.

    MOA vs MRAD - am I making too much of this?

    oooh. A blog post which merely reiterates the failures of understanding that you've expressed in this thread. Clearly it's not misplaced concern but it's not concern either. It's simple discomfort knowing that someone came to us for advice but had their head and their ass inverted to such a...

    MOA vs MRAD - am I making too much of this?

    Well, to be fair, the entire original post is a magnum opus of not getting it, misstating the essential matter at hand and ignoring the glaringly obvious. One of those cases of asking someone what car they're buying and they say, "blue".

    Female homeowner shoots intruder to death

    It's almost like residential burglary and Thunderdome were meant to have similar outcomes and for similar reasons.

    MOA vs MRAD - am I making too much of this?

    One has nothing to do with the other. Exactly zero things. Why specify this particular value? If you're on the .308win version of a Steyr Scout then about 12mils is the upper end of what you'd likely ever use at maximum supersonic range. This is true and the only real consideration. MOA or...

    Could you do me a huge favor and get a measurement on the back end of your rail for how high it comes off the receiver? I got mine at the same time and I'm honestly not certain about the angle. I don't think it's 40, pretty sure it's 30moa but I can't rightly tell thanks to DT's mishmash of...

    There's a pocket in the DT soft case to contain a suppressor. Of course, diameter could be an issue. Length could be too but I think that matters less to the question. I have made a number of observations about the internal configuration of the DT soft case with respect to the pockets (seems the...
