    NO GUNSMITH Practical Custom Rifle Build

    I am pretty happy with the build. I am trying to make my way out to my secondary range which will allow me to setup steel out to 600 so I can confirm and true up the load data. When the next NRL Hunter season schedule gets set, I will be making the sincere effort to make the one venue that is...

    NO GUNSMITH Practical Custom Rifle Build

    So I posted this a few days ago in the Precision Rifle.... show em thread - https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/precision-rifles-show-em.6252617/post-11027451 But I'll rehash here: Defiance Machine anTI short action, .480" bolt face, nitride finish, Guardian cut Proof Research carbon...

    Precision Rifles.....show em!!

    My most recent completed project - https://www.ocabj.net/precision-rifle-project-series-defiance-machine-anti-lightweight-rifle-build/ Goal was a (relatively) lightweight rifle that is precise that can handle sustained strings of fire (compared to an off-the-shelf pencil barrelled rifle)...

    Atlas CAL adapter

    The SC-ARC should work. I use the ARMS-LR on all of my bipods, of which I also use on the MPA Matrix Pro.

    Since the Vudoo mags aren't coming out in my life time, what chassis?

    MPA Matrix Pro and the original billet mags. I can load force from any direction on the mag and it will not be affected. I don't need a barricade stop / mag blocker.

    Magneto Speed V3 Mounting Options

    I have the original Wiser. It works well enough even though I've had parts crack over time and had to get replacement parts. I may try the recent Wiser revision given all the changes they've made in the past few years.

    Fast Twist- where are we?

    My most recent 22LR build using a new Vudoo Gun Works Three 60 action and a 25" MullerWorks 8-groove (1:13" twist, 1.250" straight) by way of DI Precision. https://www.ocabj.net/di-precision-vudoo-gun-works-three-60-rifle-overview/ Build sheet: Vudoo Gun Works Three 60 action MullerWorks...

    Fast Twist- where are we?

    I got a Three 60 barrelled action by way of DI Precision with a 25" MullerWorks 8-groove, 1:13", 1.250" straight several weeks ago. I'm still in the process of releasing a write-up. I'm not the best shooter by any means, but from my testing so far, I can throw any random lot of Center-X into it...

    T1X bore guide

    I run Bore Tech guides in the Vudoo, and picked up one of theirs for a Tikka T1x. I was a bit surprised to find the bored/drilled guide wasn't clean in the one for the T1x. I had to run a 6mm nylon brush back and forth in the guide to clean out the Delrin bits.

    Request: Diameter of TFCT-24 top leg segment

    For anyone with a TFCT-24: Can you reply with the diameter of the top leg segment? I only have a TFCT-34 on hand which is ~36.7mm for the top leg segment diameter, and I know the 24 is a bit thinner. Thanks.

    Precision Rifle Gear Best Tripod in $400 to $500

    As someone with the RRS TFCT-34 + Anvil 30, I just ordered one of the Leofoto's above for the LULZ. I am genuinely curious to see how it compares.

    RRS Anvil tension adjustment

    While I have been using Arca type plates before firearms applications, I somewhat cringed when the shooting industry adopted Arca (even though I sort of recommended other people try it) because I knew we would be running into these scenarios with people having plate and clamp issues and not...

    SIG KILO6K 10x32 vs KILO3000BDX 10x42 Ranging Binoculars?

    No idea. Garmin omits the 6K on their FAQ - https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?faq=sGYDr7hXhE7xupyy3pGp0A - and I don't know anyone that has a Tactix to try out.

    RRS tripod recommendation

    I have the Anvil-30 but still have the BH-55 which I used for a long time before the Anvil-30. For photography and other glassing, the Anvil-30 is not what you want. Different tool focused for a specific purpose. Not saying you can't use it for photography, but you're not going to get the same...

    Vudoo w/ Eley Ammo

    After seeing people complain about Eley in Vudoo mags, I bought some Eley Match and Eley Tenex and just to try them through my Vudoo. No issues with unmodified magazines out of a Gen 1.

    If someone is spoofing another site of an entity, that entity is not responsible for fraud that takes place on that spoof page. I work for a major public institution and our users are targeted by fake authentication / login spoofing our institution all the time, and that's assuming we somehow...

    Trigger cam or tactacam

    I got a Triggercam 2.1 from Nedved a few days ago. Haven't messed with it, yet. Hoping to set it up next week.

    Need advice on spotting scopes...

    My primary use of a spotting scope while in a shooting position is to read mirage, not to see results of shot.

    did holosun steal their technology?

    Reliability. Huge care. That's why I went with Holosun 507C after breaking 3 RM07's in a span of 12 months. 507C is doing just fine. Granted, I did recently buy an RMR HRS / Type 2, but it barely has 200 live fire slide cycles. So time will tell.
