    Accessories AI at/ax factory 308 barrel 20"

    Got this new, from an AI AT, shoots bug holes with 175 fgmm, and I have shot groups around 0.35 with 168s. So, in other words she shoots awesome. Pretty sure im under 100 rounds total, I was tracking my rounds till about 70 rounds then think i may have put another box through it after that. Just...

    Tikka T3 barrel removal.

    Well then it's all set. For smaller diameter barrels I like to cut a cardboard tube like for holding posters, it's thick and tough and I make the bushings/shims out of that, once the rosin is on there it gets really grippy. But you should whore on if you think it will give you more grip.

    Tikka T3 barrel removal.

    Clamp as close to the reciever as possible, of course you can't grab on too much of a curve of the barrel so tighten on as much surface area as possible. Use some thick cardboard shims with rosin so you don't mar the barrel. I highly recommend using WD40 on the barrel/reciever joint and let it...

    Optics Element Optics Theos 6-36x56mm Black or Grey. Titan 5-25x56mm MRAD

    Most definitely, owned a 5-25 TT and the previous Premier it is based on, and there are a lot of benefits for the TT turrets, now I have not tried the AIF, but it's not something I'm really interested in nor need. From memory the TT turrets have a little more positive "snap" and the MTC feature...

    Optics Element Optics Theos 6-36x56mm Black or Grey. Titan 5-25x56mm MRAD

    Yeah, the Theos however is made in Nagano at Light Optical Works. I have one and it's great, decided to put it on one of my switch barrel guns, so changing barrels then resetting the turret is easy peasy, new standard for turrets I think.

    Optics Element Optics Theos 6-36x56mm Black or Grey. Titan 5-25x56mm MRAD

    How the fuck is this still here? I think this has got to be one of the most underrated optics in the Premium catagory. Glass on par with Kalhes/Vortex 3HD and turrets that are as easy as the TT. And Japanese made so you know it's gonna last.

    NV and Thermal bridged

    Interesting analogy. I guess the PVS being analogue and the Thermal being digital there would be sync-frequency, and latency issues between the two devices.

    NV and Thermal bridged

    That's already a thing, available on the commercial market. But....you have to pay to play. I don't know if it's any good as I'm just learning about this stuff now. Really cool though. https://www.customnightvision.com/product/jerry-fb-fusion-binocular-system-night-vision-12um-640-thermal/

    NV and Thermal bridged

    From what I understand the biggest issue is getting the two images to co exist without getting a headache. A manual gain control on the NV/pvs is important. No one seems to be able to fully merge the images mentally. We need the Predator to chime in. .

    NV and Thermal bridged

    I have noticed venders like Custom or Arkayne now offering a PVS bridged with a thermal. This seems like an interesting concept if you don't have the funds for a COTI. Anyone doing this, what your take?

    Russia's Staggering Losses In Ukraine

    Good job! Yes, put Obama at the top of that list. I can't help but think Michelle has a little sway as well, not on forgin policy but maybe the cultural Marxism? 🤔
