    Not in the new Hawk Hill barrel. That may be worth a try also. Thanks.

    Drone to check impact

    Never underestimate the damage idiots can inflict to any and all situations. You'll understand this as you mature.

    Cleaning Rifle After Shooting?

    As mentioned, everybody has their own way of doing this. Some will say clean only when groups open up, some only after 200-300 rounds fired, others will clean to some degree after every range session. It's up to you and what you like and are comfortable doing. I've read some reports of what...

    Range Report Defender 6.5 CM 142 gr SMK Match Ammo

    I tried a box of this in my stock Bergara LRP. The Hornady 140 gr ELD performed better. I had the Bergara rebarreled with a Hawk Hill 27" 1/8 M40 contour with SAAMI chamber. Bought another box of the Defender 142 gr Sierra Match King ammunition to try in the new barrel. I've had great results...

    Rifle Scopes Athlon Cronus BTR 4.5-29x56 Review

    Nice write up and welcome to the Athlon Fan Club. We're an eclectic lot and take a lot of crap from Vortex owners....haha. More arguments and disagreements over scopes than any other piece of gear so stand by for some incoming over those Razor comparisons :) I dig the Cronus BTR also....have 2...

    Welp, its for the Children

    Wait, don't liberals all believe in late term abortion....you can chop that fetus into pieces to remove it from the womb because of it's size. Yet now they care so much for immigrant children that we are subjected to this fake sob story. Killary quoting the Bible.....spare me you corrupt, evil...

    My JP likes Hornady Black 75gr also. For great ammo at a reasonable cost, try Defender 69gr SMK.....shoots awesome. Looks like you have an accurate AR with the right ammo. https://www.defenderammunition.com/collections/rifle-products/products/223?variant=869852938267

    Man, that is weird. I went back and looked at my targets from the range day when I tested the Hornady 73gr ELD. I was also testing Hornady Black 75gr Match, Federal Berger 73gr Match, and Black Hills 77gr TMK. Of those, the Federal 73gr Bergers were the best, but I was getting 5 round groups...

    .223 eldm

    Awesome....this confirms my results as well. I really hoped the factory Hornady 73gr ELM ammo would shoot well out of my JP 20" Wylde chamber 1/8......but it was horrible. There is a Defender 69gr SMK and a Copper Creek 77gr Berger that shoot amazing out of it. The Copper Creek Berger...

    Rifle Scopes Athlon Cronus - need help

    Yes, the one on top is much bigger. There should be 2 allen keys.....small one for zero stop and larger one for knob removal. Bummer if not included and to the seller.....Not Cool! Here's a little tip I use on my Cronus's that I stole from Vortex. When setting zero stop....get your zero where...

    Muzzle Breaks what are you using and what is you barrel contour?

    I love the JP brakes....especially when blended. I tried a Lil Bastard and an Area 419 Hellfire on 2 different barrels and had my groups open up. They were torqued on properly. Took off, shot a few groups with no brake, reinstalled brake and groups opened back up. I have that brake on a JP...

    Rifle Scopes Athlon Cronus - need help

    It's a 1.5mm allen key for the Cronus BTR zero stop. If you have the wrong key, it will feel like the screw is not there. It's recessed pretty far too and difficult to see even with a magnifying glass....try a 1.5mm key and see if you get it locked into the screw. They might be there.
