    Another Scar 17s will my scope survive

    I don’t remember if NF said all of their optics are rated for .50cal or just the ATACR lines. I sent NF an email asking if my 1-8 ATACR would handle a SCAR. They said it wouldn’t be a problem. I’d say based on NF reputation, it would probably handle the SCAR. The SHV line, I would be more...

    Stomped by wind

    Yesterday I took the LMT 20" 6.5cm out. I am shooting factory hornady 140gr ELD-M ammo. Right now the barrel has 100-120rds of this ammo (and only this ammo) through it, so my MV is a little slow, trued with AB app to 2514FPS out to 700 yards. Everything from 300 to 700 was no problem. 900 made...

    Well, check that one off the bucket list. I got kicked out of a parade.

    Well now I’m glad I never inquired about it. Spend all that money and not even have a liter engine in it. Plus they just left it sitting outside all winter long. Not that it probably can’t handle it, but something that expensive shouldn’t be in freezing temps for no reason.

    Really? I would’ve thought they were all 1000 engines considering it’s hauling operators, ammo, gear, machine guns and etc.

    Well, check that one off the bucket list. I got kicked out of a parade.

    Makes me want to buy a MRZR mil unit sitting at the local dealership. Still has the stenciled unit number on it. I’m afraid to ask how much they want for it.

    224 Valkyrie

    FWIW, the only successful valk shooters are using 80gr bullets and sending them at 3000fps. That’s the golden ticket for the caliber. The fast speed with decent BC helps cut down on the wind effect and still heavy enough to shake a target at distance. Or destroy a varmint game animal.

    224 Valkyrie

    It’s an alright caliber. I really enjoyed it inside of 700 yards using a 24” barrel and 88gr eld or 75gr TMJ ammo. After 700, wind calls became critical. I shot a stage where the target was up on a hillside where the wind can swirl a bullet around if you’re not paying attention. The target was...

    Advanced Marksmanship Lying to Ourselves About What Makes a Difference.

    100%. It's the same as when the AR market really took off. You could literally buy a hand stop that was shaped like a ball sack. I haven't seen anyone at a PRS style match with a set of ball sack dope charts, but it wouldn't surprise me if people claimed it was more efficient lol. I jumped on...

    Advanced Marksmanship Lying to Ourselves About What Makes a Difference.

    Even though I agree with the original post, I will play devils advocate and also admit that by people offloading tons of cash into sport is a good thing. Without demand, there is no innovation. A company like ZCO or TT wouldn’t even exist if people didn’t chase that kind of performance. There...

    Trade my Scar 17 for a Barrett MRAD SMR .308?

    Bad trade. Sell SCAR, buy bolt gun.

    Am I expecting to much???

    I've been on both sides of the fence with large frame gassers. I have built and bought factory. I built a 260 remington years ago with a proof research barrel. Shot under 1 moa all day long. It was with Aero receivers and rail. I honestly couldn't handload a bad load for it. It was not picky at...

    Night Vision Any Regrets w your purchases?

    Save your money and get dual tubes instead of rushing to a monocular. If the duals are well outside of your budget, get a high quality mono that will hold its value while you save for duals. Then you can either keep the mono as a secondary or sell to fund duals. I never understood the...

    LMT .308 MWS

    I bought it years ago when they first came out. According to my FFL, they have sold the company to someone else and it’s been a nightmare dealing with them. I can’t honestly recommend it knowing the state of that company now. Dare I say its a grown mans Mk12? Lol
