    Rifle Scopes 6.5 Grendel Hunting/SPRish Optic

    That's probably why Nikon is getting out of the rifle scope game. I haven't been impressed with any of their scopes over the past 10 or so years.

    Rifle Scopes Trijicon Accupower throw lever?

    I just bought a Trijicon Accupower 1-8 from a gentleman on here. I wanted to buy a throw lever and started a relatively extensive search. Is the only option the Trijicon brand for $60? It looks like it's the size of my fingernail...and $60! Seems a bit outrageously priced to me. If anyone knows...

    Aero Precision 12" enhanced handguard *Price Drop*

    Got this for a 300bo pistol build with a 10.5 barrel. Quickly decided I wanted to go shorter on the barrel, so swapped out the barrel and handguard. This handguard has a large enough ID for a supressor to fit under. It saw 1 range trip to basically function test and sight in the gun. Includes...

    Rainier Match versus Ultramatch ?

    It's the quality of the blanks. Not sure if it's still true, but I believe the old ultramatch barrels used Shilen blanks. I've shot the match barrel in 223 wylde and it hovered between around half moa with premium factory ammo. This was also 6yrs ago and it was a build for a friend.

    Like New ATN X-Sight 2 with upgrades *Price Drop*

    Atn X-sight2 3-14 that is in like new condition. Besides messing with it a handful of times in my backyard and sighting it in, it's been in the field once for a couple of hours. I just don't have the opportunity to use it like I thought I would. Included is: A.R.M.S #17 qd mount Coyote Reaper...

    Gunsmithing Recommend someone to cut and thread barrel in AR

    Thanks for all of the suggestions, I've got some good options. I talked with rooster offline and there is a good option just a few miles from my house that I wasn't even aware of, so I'm going to start there. Once I can get ahold of the rifle next week, I'll start trying to get this set up.

    The AR15 Picture Thread

    This is my do it all hunting rig. 12.7 6.5 grendel. Currently working on a 1-8 optic for it so I can move the LRTSi to a bolt gun. It's such a sweet shooting rig suppressed.

    Rifle Scopes Nikon to stop making scopes???

    I'm not really surprised. They haven't haven't done anything to keep up with the current demands and got left behind by all other major riflescope brands. I've never been impressed with any of their optics I've messed with.

    6.5 Grendel more or less dead?

    I'm pushing a 120gr Speer Goldot at 2300fps out of my 12.7 with AR-comp. It's a fairly moderate load. I think I'm going to pick up some Starline brass and play around with some powders to see how fast I can push it.

    Ejector swipes

    I feel like I have read about this issue with aero bolts. It was a while back, so I'm not sure...I know that helps a lot ?...did you try the aero bolt and bcg in the lmt to see if the issue followed? Maybe try the lmt bolt in the aero bcg. I would try to narrow it down the the specific part.

    6.5 Grendel Barrel Suggestions

    Tbox barrels are typically regarded as one of the best for grendels. I've got a 20" odin that is alright. Just a hair under moa. I have a 12.7 barrel from Atherisrifleco that is extremely accurate.

    Suppressors Dead air Sandman

    For what it's worth, I have a Sico Omega with the keymo adapter. I wanted to see how repeatable it was on my bolt gun. I started with the can on, fired a round, removed can, fired a round, put can back on etc. I fired 6 rounds and was happy with the results. It's very repeatable and predictable...
