    Rifle Scopes Just ordered a Cronus BTR from gr8fuldoug - need advice

    Ordered scope. Will go on an old r700 223 that is just a tapped receiver. Hope to be putting it on an Impact early next year. What kind of rings would serve both installations well? I know little to nothing about pros and cons of different rings....

    New HMR Pro - A Bit of a Letdown

    Meh. Way to be the better man. What I’ve noticed is that when people spend a lot of money on a new toy. And “a lot” is subjective. Is that they want it to be be nearly perfect. When there are cosmetic blemishes, it’s ok to be dissappinted. It’s also ok to talk about it here. Supposed to...

    Black Friday deals?

    Check out feathered friends if you don’t find the deal on western mountaineering. Have bags from both companies and both are top notch down bags. Used a feathered friends bag on a climb of Denali....

    Fundamental frank vs the free recoilers

    But heels on the ground is how those little plastic army men are made, so it must be the “right” way!

    Fundamental frank vs the free recoilers

    It seems like anything you can lug around and meet time requirements with and shoot however you want is practical. I haven’t ever competed in any rifle events. But competed in IDPA and USPSA for pistol. Everyone wants rules to make it match their perception of shooting. But the nice thing...

    Head position

    Be interested to hear what some more qualified folks have to say on this. I have a FWB air rifle and it shares the stock of their Olympic rifles. Incredibly adjustable. I mainly shoot offhand with it but I notice that small tweaks in the cheek rest angle or the grip angle make shooting...

    Is accuracy, or MV consistency, decreased with less volume of powder

    I built a spreadsheet that calculates recoil energy and velocity as well as kill power (based on chuckhawkes) and some other factors. In my mind there is a missing optimal terminal performance per lb/ft of recoil that is somewhere between a 6.5 Grendel and 6.5 Creedmoor. Was trying to see if...

    Is accuracy, or MV consistency, decreased with less volume of powder

    Sorry for the newb question. Am curious if you loaded a cartridge (say 6.5 CM) to be a little slower than normal to reduce recoil, does that tend to increase MV SD? Does filling a cartridge lead to more consistent burning?

    Disappointed

    Disappointed

    I used to work at Walmart. People would essentially “rent” lawnmowers. They would mow all summer and then return the mower. That dinged the store, the buyer and the company in profit. Non issue for the company. But big deal to the hourly folks at the store. I have foster kids. Usually...

    Best ar-15 for prs type matches

    But how would he do running it with a gas gun compared to having run it with a bolt gun. Make him run it with bolt gun first.

    I need help...I don't know what I want. UPDATED

    If you built a Grendel in a bolt could you run bigger bullets than what will fit in ar mags? Get a little more BC and it would be slightly better downrange. Seems like your looking for something between a 6.5 Grendel and Creedmoor. Haha

    Best ar-15 for prs type matches

    I haven’t shot an ar since I was in the army 20 years ago. And you know how shitty army rifles are! I remember the odd recoil impulse of the bolt group moving back and forth after the actual recoil. Was hoping modern captured buffer springs, and low mass bolt groups and modern triggers would...
