    Reloading Equipment WTB: 70GR Barnes .224 bullets or 70 GR Hornady GMX

    No thank you. I already have a solid recipe for both the 70GR ttsx and gmx so I would rather not have to do anymore load development.

    Rifle Scopes What light weight hybrid hunting/tactical optic?

    they do in theory but for a field rifle that wouldn’t be a concern. That’s more of a Ben great thing. I’ll shoot game to maybe 700 and coyotes to 1000. Most modern optics wonr Have any glaring issues with that regardless of if it’s at max magnification or not.

    Rifle Scopes What light weight hybrid hunting/tactical optic?

    The idahospud post has me rethinking it. Never had any issues with leupolds customer service so I might stay with the mk5

    Rifle Scopes Issue with NightForce nx8

    Bummer to hear. Was about to buy a nx8 and went looking for reviews. Glad I found this. I worked at an FFL for 6 years and seen every manufacturer has issues at times, no big deal there. Some handle it really well, leupold, Ziess and vortex come to mind. Some don’t. For those that are saying “we...

    Rifle Scopes What light weight hybrid hunting/tactical optic?

    After contacting nightforce about their mil/le program I am leaning heavily towards the NX8. Now debating between the 2.5-20 or the 4-32 and what reticle

    Copy that, thank you. Definitely want to stick to a ffp optic.

    Rifle Scopes What light weight hybrid hunting/tactical optic?

    Good to know. I’ve been shooting ffp on my rifles for a while and haven’t run into any issues. Just want to drop some weight. Just sold my vudu 5-25 and was shooting a bushnell dmr2 before that. Always kept it at 5x and had no issues with finding the crosshairs when I pulled the rifle up.

    Rifle Scopes What light weight hybrid hunting/tactical optic?

    Difference between the f1 and f2? Haven’t looked into them much as it would be stretching the budget but I think nightforce still does something for first responders so maybe it’s an option.

    Rifle Scopes What light weight hybrid hunting/tactical optic?

    Building a 6.5prc and will be hunting with it for most game but also using it to shoot long range etc. trying to be mindful of weight. Leaning heavily to the Leupold mark 5 currently but open to other options and opinions. The 3.6-18x44 comes in at 26oz and the 5-25 30oz. Leaning towards the...

    Carbon 6 vs Proof Barrels

    Since bartlein is doing carbon barrels now I wouldn’t bother with anyone else.

    Bartlein Carbon Wrapped Barrels

    So I purchased a defiance tenacity and a 24” 6.5 in the varmint profile and a 7.5tw. Hopefully the fast twist rate does ok with the Barnes 127gr lrx.

    Bartlein Carbon Wrapped Barrels

    Thanks guys. I’m sold. Decided on a receiver, now just to decide between 6.5cm or 6.5prc and to pick a profile and barrel length. Too many damn choices.

    powder alternatives for 6.5prc and 127 lrx

    Looking to possibly build a 6.5 prc but availability of know powders has me worried. I will be primarily using Barnes 127lrx. So what would be a decent alternative to RL26 and h1000 that might be available in kegs somewhere?

    Bartlein Carbon Wrapped Barrels

    A month and a half since the last post. Who else has some images or feedback to help me live vicariously through you?

    Precision “hunting” rifle advice needed.

    Thats the way I am leaning. Really the only hold up is ammo and reloading supplies for prc are a nightmare to find currently. Considering how much h4350 and 65cm stuff I have I really should just build a creedmoor

    Precision “hunting” rifle advice needed.

    Probably leaning more towards a custom/semi custom. Thinking a barreled action and buying a chassis or something along those lines. Not a fan of most stocks on factory rifles.

    How are you liking that bartlein carbon barrel? Was kicking around having one spun up by spartan rifles on a defiance tenacity.
