    what ar10 style would be best for 600 yard f class tactical matches

    A bolt gun would be a better choice. Are you serious about wanting to shoot F T/R? Do you want to actually be competitive or just shoot the matches for fun to get some MR/LR practice? Usually clubs are pretty open to letting you shoot whatever you want (as long as you're not using a muzzle...

    Rifle Scopes Two new March scopes

    I had the chance to talk to Ian and play with the 3-24x52 last weekend at the prs championship shoot. It looks great, still compact and light weight but better light gathering now. That's about the only negative thing I had on the 42mm I had. Glad to see them expanding the lineup! Thanks a...

    New long range shooter here, need advice

    Using your ballistic software on your phone makes it easy, especially when you can collect weather data/DA pretty well anywhere. I still make ballistic cards for match use and practice, I may verify my dope with the phone but some matches you can't use electronics so don't get too dependent on...

    Rifle Scopes March 5x-40x56mm possible redesign, your opinion needed

    I owned a 3-24 for about a year, I shot it in local matches and large matches in all kinds of conditions. If it wouldn't have been stolen I still would be shooting it. The turrets are great, 10 mil turn, .1mil adjustments, great zero stop and great glass. I only have two slightly negative...

    6CM vs 6XC

    My first 6mm barrel (243) I shot out in a 1000 rounds using 115's and H4350. My second barrel is 26" and I'm trying H4831sc with 105's, so far it looks good, cycles smooth and no pressure with 3150fps, I couldn't get close to that speed with H1000.

    Best .308 Rifle for $2000

    The Tikka T3 is a nice rifle out of the box, Manners makes stocks for it. Accessories are limited compared to the remingtons but it shoots. If you could find a heavy barrel version, bed it in a nice stock, get cdi bottom metal with AI mags it would be within your price range. It would probably...

    Gunsmithing Bolt Lug Contact of High End Customs: Surprising Results

    Very interesting reading, I never considered all the forces on the bolt, sear engagement, ejector spring etc. prior to the round going off that might influence the lug engagement and or squareness to the receiver. Obviously you can't build a reliable gun if you take all the play out and try to...

    Post anything that has helped you as a reloader!

    I agree with mtang45, you can make yourself crazy thinking you can cover all of the variables before shooting just to find out the rifle or you had another issue and it wasn't the loads at all, and you will convince yourself it was. Do your homework on prep, just be consistent and don't change...

    Rifle Scopes Help with new scope please...

    I agree with Kimber, keep your scope in that 10X max power range and the scope will be smaller and lighter. Leupold vx3 or similar, you might look at some of the lower end zeiss, I don't have one yet but they look good for the money. As for the first or second focal, until you get some time...

    Gunsmithing 260 and 7WSM builds and questions.

    I have built both the 260 and the 7wsm as well as several others. As far as the stock it's up to your own choice and feel. I really like the mcmillan, A3-5 and A5 with the adjustable cheek piece. Manners are ok, XLR are ok but not for me, tried an AICS also its ok, especially with the new...
