    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper PST Issues

    First thought would be over torqued rings causing the adjustments to hang up and then let loose after another correction.

    GA Precision 22 GT

    I'd be surprised if they came out with a 22GT standalone die set. Guessing it will just bushing replacements unless this thing really starts to take off.

    Is it worth doing an AI with the .223?

    What do people see as the added effort? Assuming you're handloading, it's less effort for the AI when you take reduced/no case trimming into account. I don't see the fireforming reason people often give as you're still shooting what amounts to a regular 223 load.

    Grayboe Terrain LOP Help

    My old Renegade was glued on like yours. There are a couple places out there that do custom work to make a McMillan spacer system work, but with the McMillan cost plus their labor, it was going to be damn near what I paid for the stock. So I went cheap and cut out dense shipping foam in the...

    450 Bushmaster magazine

    I just tried a couple out with the 5 rd mag in my Origin 223AI. Seated all the way back. They fed from the mag just fine (obviously didn’t chamber). There’s a ton of space up front, might need to make some sort of spacer but they did feed for me.

    He didn't, he licked it.

    Best place to buy a KRG Bravo ?

    I picked up mine for about $310 shipped or so from Brownells with one of their codes.

    Rifle Scopes Razor Gen 3 line?

    Have a pretty new Razor, the internal turret seems to pretty accurate on mine. Did anyone with problems ever reach out to Vortex for an opinion?

    I know this is from last February, but someone had to do it.

    Why chance it?

    Grayboe vs Oryx

    No M-Lok on the Renegade, just two swivel studs on the underside. For OP - I really liked my Renegade. Put a Triad stock pack on it and a Seekins rail up front in place of the studs. Only drawback for me was the length of pull, so I ended up taping a few cut foam spacers to the end to get...

    New here, 6.5 Savage

    Yeah, I'd say it shoots. Nice work.

    223 Ackley Improved

    Posted this on another site, figured I'd try here too. I now have enough formed brass to start diving into the 223AI loads using 75gr ELDs. I've went out once already and wasn't blown away by the results. Figured I'd get some more input from the folks on here to see if I might want to tweak...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Diamondback Tactical 6-24 x50

    I picked up one to throw on a not so often used prairie dog AR. It's.... ok. Seems to track alright, turrets are pretty mushy compared to my PST Gen 2 or Razor Gen 2, but still responsive enough to use without looking at it. Glass is ok up until 20x, then it gets a little dark, but still usable...

    KRG Bravo Chassis

    Forget the new barrel aspect, I'm more impressed with the group since you don't have a good aiming point on a 3" open circle. Throw a dot in the middle next time.

    Triple C Range Rules: Under 3,000 FPS? Am I missing something?

    Probably much easier to do a flat 3000 FPS limit on stuff than break down velocity limits at 100, 200, etc to avoid pitting. Probably just want to avoid guys bringing out a 22-250 and shooting 150-200 yard steel or guys blasting away at 100 yard steel with 55gr FMJ. If you’re distance shooting...

    Sierra #7160 .224 60g TMK

    That looks fine for a starting point. Sierra's max is 23.0 and I believe that is very conservative. You could also play around with seating depth (if in a bolt gun) and not worry about going well over that. I'd say go with your 22.5 for a starting point and go up to 24 gr or so watching for...

    Looking for a longer LOP on Grayboe

    For my Bravo I cheaped out and just picked up some longer bolts and threw some spacers over them. Works well since I'm not changing LOP for others.
