    Ar10 6.5 creedmoor 140gr H4350 load data

    I got blown primers at 41.5 with my AR10 the other day (Winchester small primers in Starline brass). I was working with my adjustable gas block, so that may have contributed to it, but it's made me step back to the mid 40's for now.

    Rifle Scopes Athlon Cronus BTR. Have they lived up to the expectations?

    I can chime in on this point... I bought a Midas Tac to use on my .22. Before mounting it I sat it on top of a tripod in my office looking out the open door to my neighbor's house a couple hundred yards away. I stupidly bumped the tripod and the scope fell 5' to my hardwood floor. The...

    Rifle Scopes SWFA 3-15 view

    I have a SWFA 10x (not HD) and a 6-24 TAC. I get glare issues with the SWFA that I don't seem to get with the TAC. My Tac also fell 5' to a hardwood floor and still tracked perfectly. It bent the objective housing a little, but the internals were just fine. I sent it back to Athlon to get...

    Rifle Scopes athlon midas tac 6-24 aprs 2 or 3 ok for paper targets in the 100-300 range?

    I have the 24x and use the same targets for load development. The dot isn't too large. My Tac usually stays on my 22 bolt gun, but I put it on the AR the other day to get more magnification than the 10x SWFA that I normally use on it. I was working up some loads and the extra magnification...

    Rifle Scopes Compare Athlon Midas TAC vs. Ares ETR

    I have both the 24x TAC and the ETR with the TAC staying on my 22. The clarity of it is very close to the ETR. Save the cash.

    223 to 6.5 Grendel - Stocks

    But, if a pistol IDENTIFIES as a rifle, I'm good no matter long it is, right? Sorry, but I didn't see enough smart-a$$ comments in this thread. ;). Just foolin' around. OP, I run different uppers off of one lower also...same caliber and all of them are rifles, tho. Keep us posted how the...

    Anyone using A1/A2 stocks?

    I put an A2 on my AR10 build since the PRS felt a little too long. Still messing around with it, but I really like it so far.

    Rifle Scopes Thoughts on the Athlon Midas BTR for a CZ 455 trainer

    Go with the Midas Tac instead. The Midas BTR may be named similar, but the TAC glass is much better. Turrets feels great also. Mine sits on my 22 trainer.
