    Accessories WTT Saker556 for AEM5

    I realize this may be a long shot, but I’m looking to trade a like new Silencerco Saker556 with the ASR mount for an Allen Engineering AEM5. Of course, a trade in Texas would be awesomeness, but I’d love to trade with anyone at this time. Waiting and transfer times aren’t really a problem...

    Rifle Scopes I hate my scope....change my mind!

    I have five leupold Mk4 scopes, and have zero issues with them. After getting the scope from my brother and using it; I have been doing some research on the Mark6 3-18’s. I’m seeing that many of shooters here have been disappointed with the glass quality of this particular model.....many...

    Rifle Scopes I hate my scope....change my mind!

    I made a trade with my brother because I needed an optic with an H59 reticle. The scope in question is a Leupold Mk6 3-18X44 Mil with B2 turrets. I can get past the turrets....being mushy, but the eye box and CA is atrocious! At 40 years of age, I began thinking that my eyesight was...

    New from Southeast Texas

    I too have a good friend in Silsbee where I shoot pistols and gas guns. Golden triangle has a nice informal f-class style match once a month which is pretty fun. They do have a nice 600yd setup with pits to pull targets. 🤙🏽

    Loading Subsonic/Accuracy Expectations?

    An update from my current load development. I haven’t yet been able to tighten my 100yd groups much more than 1 moa so far. I was very pleased with the chronograph results though. A ten shot group of 220gn Berger hybrids over 10.5gn’s of CFE Black yielded exceptional results. Average MV- 1038...

    Loading Subsonic/Accuracy Expectations?

    Thanks Orkan, Very good information. Was your barrel a 1 in 7 twist? Additionally, did you always use factory produced blackout brass, or did you make your own? What is your thoughts on the first round being off zero? Could it be the friction of cold rifling on the slow moving projectile?

    Loading Subsonic/Accuracy Expectations?

    I’m working a load for a custom built .300 AAC Remington 700. The barrel is a 16” Bartlein 1/7 twist. I have found some inconsistencies with muzzle velocity, and I’m working hard to understand the problem. I suspect the issue may be with neck tension, and inconsistencies between neck wall...

    Help! Trouble shooting with my kiddos 🥴

    Thanks, That’s similar to what another competitive shotgunner told me. He said to put a smudge of chapstick in the center of the lens over the dominant eye. The blurry spot would help train the brain to use the opposite eye.

    Help! Trouble shooting with my kiddos 🥴

    I too want my children’s experiences with firearms to be positive and enjoyable. Switching from paper to reactive targets really helped. I have since worked with my son shooting left handed. He seems to have taken to it well. I plan to take my daughter shooting tomorrow, and we’ll see how...

    Paraglide Pig Hunting..

    I like your thought process, but I fear that you’d be too dependent on the prevailing winds. If one was serious, a personal dirigible would be a good option. Controllable, slow moving, and silent on an unpowered gliding strafe. Cheers http://www.personalblimp.com/

    Any SVD Shooters here?

    I realize SVD’s are fairly rare in the US, but they’re definitely part of the Vintage Sniper Rifles of the world.....and my favorite! I have found that a Chinese NDM-86 has surprisingly decent accuracy. When I bought it, I was expecting 2-3 MOA at...

    Any SVD Shooters here?

    Right on. 👍🏽 Traditionally, you’re right; the SVD was issued with a PSO-1 4x optic. Speaking with friends in Russia, they are currently also fielding the PSO 3-9X24 optic. Alpha, FSB, and other high speed Russian Operators are using S&B, and other high end glass on the SVD.

    Any SVD Shooters here?

    Yes sir, I watched it. Two issues though.... The first was the rifle they fielded was chambered in 7.62x51. In addition, they used a standard 4x optic. There are higher magnification Russian optics that will allow the shooter to have a higher level of accuracy at distance over the original 4x...
