    Better yet, the Magpul type AC - It won't hold the bolt open and allows you to single load without the hassle. It's a staggered magazine with a single stack feed lip. That keeps it short but sweet.

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    Well, since this is the RPR topic area, and most of us in this area have RPR rifles, you will likely get a very biased recommendation for a rifle. I am over 1200 rounds down the factory tube on my 6.5CM, and yesterday I was tagging a 3" gong with it - at 1,000 yards. I see no reason to take a...

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    If you are into the smaller (6-6.5) high velocity games than consider your barrel as an expendable part. You will be changing it out. Anything above 3k will be very high pressure and a lot of heat. Throats will burn out. Brass will have a short life span. Consider loading a bit slower, and...

    6.5 creedmore ar10 questions

    I did an economy build using a Gen 1 DPMS receiver, LILJA barrel with heartbreak muzzle, HD bolt, heavy buffer, SLR AGB, Magpul PRS, UTG MLOK, rifle length tube and gas system. Had to toy with gas pressure, buffer weight, spring tension and just about everything else to get it running smooth...

    In reference to the Ruger trigger.... Has anyone attempted to remove the safety blade from the assembly? If that was gone, It would be a acceptable. I have mine broken in really well and it's a very good trigger, I just hate that thingy in the shoe. Griz

    Rifle Scopes Reflection inside scope reticle?

    Any piece of glass under the right conditions can act like a mirror. Even a perfectly clear pane of glass will can carry a reflection bright enough that you can't see through it under the right conditions. It's not a problem with the scope, or operator or anything else. It's purely physics...

    Rifle Scopes Scope leveling - a template for all to use

    Tell them to print it on E1 30 X 42 and do not rescale it! It is 1:1 Very likely they printed it on what was in the plotter instead of changing the paper. I printed 6 more (for friends) today on our HPDJ2500 and they were perfect. After printing, top to bottom of the grid at the correct scale...

    Rifle Scopes Scope leveling - a template for all to use

    I got the rifles and scopes level, but I have been a bit off the personal bubble since I was born, at least according to my wife! LOL. I think you need to get the gun right and keep it right by adjusting the cant on the recoil pad, a least that how I approached it. And please do not...

    Rifle Scopes Scope leveling - a template for all to use

    Excellent point, I did not attempt to give too many directions on the best way to use the target, LOWLIGHT is a much better teacher than I am. https://www.snipershide.com/snipers-hide-leveling-your-scope/ This is an EXCELLENT article in case you have not read it. The target I created is an...

    Rifle Scopes Scope leveling - a template for all to use

    MRAD version is done. Major squares are 1 mil, minor squares are .1 mil, top to bottom is 10 mils. Side to side is 4 mils. These are based on 100 yards, the best distance to level and check your scope for tracking issues. IE... 1 mil at 100 yards is 3.6", so one click (most scopes) is .36" for...

    I have 3 gen 1 pst scopes. All FFP, 5-24-50 FFP. All three track fine out to 1,000 yards and beyond. All three return to zero every time. One of these has close to 10k rounds under it while mounted on three different rifles from 6.5 to 45-70. with hundreds of dial up and return to zero...

    As long as they have a large format printer that can print 30 x 42 (E1 size) I am lucky enough to work at a place that has several large format machines.

    Rifle Scopes Scope leveling - a template for all to use

    After watching LowLight's instruction on scopes, and a few others on methods to assure a level setup, I created a printable PDF to go along with the most excellent information. This first release is MOA, I am working on a MILRAD version as well. I flew this one with my 45-70, and discovered I...

    Rifle Scopes True Return to Zero mounts

    I have a Vortex Viper PST sitting in a Burris P.E.P.R. mount that for a year or so shared duty on two rifles. a 6.5 semi and a R700 hunter. It is the PEPR that uses the 1/2" hex nuts, and I am very diligent in making sure it is pushed forward and is torqued exactly at 50 every time I move it...

    The Sinclair adapter replaces the entire stud mount assembly with a new assembly that the bipod mounts directly to. It is not truly an adapter, it is a replacement mounting block. I opted to go this way to keep the number of parts at a minimum, therefore reducing overall height and minimizing...

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    Really just depends on what you are doing. If I were going to be stationary and shooting at the same target at the same distance and the same elevation all day (like a benchrest match) I would go with a bag or a fixed front rest. Where you shoot at multiple targets that require multiple...
