    Rifle Scopes NF 7-35x56 Parallax

    Mine does this and it drives me crazy. I've spoken to NF about it. When I get a pause in the Match season, I'm sending it in for them to look at (hopefully just spin the ring and tighten down at a location I pre-identify). My PMII is spot on, as were my previous 5-25 ATACRs, and my PMII is...

    POLL: Most comfortable Stock or Chassis for YOU?

    I have a KMW Sentinel I love as well (voted for Manners), but as quick/frequent as we work the bolt in a match, it's a tad slower since I actually wrap my thumb instead of hanging off the side. It's awesome for spending time behind the glass and is super comfortable. If I was an actual sniper...

    6mm or 6.5mm - Yes. This again. But with Data!

    I wonder if there is a calculator for weight/felt recoil. I bet you could add a longer/heavier contour barrel to a 6.5 increasing a pound or two (think Rem Heavy Varmint) and have the same recoil with a 6.5 as a 6 with a Heavy Palma or Marksman style contour. I personally run a 6.5 creed but...

    Rifle Scopes Anyone run a 16x for their main optic? regrets?

    I shoot between 12-18x 99% of the time in a match. I only go above that if I'm shooting a know your limits type stage, or doing load work up at 100. Even prairie dogs, I shoot on about 15x so I can have field of view. I'm already scanning in my scope for the next victim before the red mist has...

    Tempest Builds..Lets See em

    No, but I'll definitely check into that. I'm calling GAP in the AM, and will ask about this hanger. But hic28 above sounds like his is running them OK on the .020 hanger. Thanks for the tip.

    Tempest Builds..Lets See em

    Thanks for the update. TT will not work with any of the 4 hangers in mine. I'll order another set of hangers from GAP tomorrow in case they made changes/improvements. The first hanger that came with my Tempest (very early serial number) is cut very different than the other 3 I ordered later on...

    Tempest Builds..Lets See em

    Anyone have any additional data on this? I noticed that my first hanger .030, is very different than my others (.00, .010. .020) I bought to round out the set. It has a trench cut where the hanger screw goes requiring a much shorter screw. I still cannot get any of them to run with my Trigger...

    Tempest action with trigger issues

    Anyone get a Trigger Tech to run with any of the GA trigger hangers in their Tempest? I have tried a TT regular, pro, and now Diamond with no luck. These are by far my favorite triggers. The only trigger I can run is a Jewell, which I don't like in a Match rifle. Would love any update from the...

    Rifle Scopes .22 LR Trainer Scope - $700 Budget

    I won a Leupold VX-3i LRP 4.5-14x50 with MIL turrets, MIL TMR reticle and FFP. I listed it in the sale section, but now that I think about it, it may fit the bill nicely. For those shooting the .22 matches, is 14 enough magnification for the top end? I was concerned but I guess most things are...

    WA, probably too far to make it worth it shipping and HAZ fee wise. Sorry brother.

    50BMG Rifle options

    Where are you located? I bet I have 60-90 CCI .50 BMG rounds NIB still. I told my BMG a couple years ago and keep telling myself I'll sell em at a gunshot and never go. They just sit in an ammo can in the garage. I have some 750 AMAX rounds too from HSM I think it was.

    50BMG Rifle options

    I had the bluegrass also. Shot well, Basically a Barrett M99 look wise. I was told when I bought it they made lots of the parts for Barrett, not sure how true that is/was. Ended up selling it because of weight and moved on, but was fun for a few years.

    Rifle Scopes S&B PM II 5-25 vs. NF ATACR 7-35

    I have both and you can't go wrong. I would go with the reticle you like the best, or if you're not a reticle guy, the turret spacing you like best. Both track great, and are durable as hell. My honest feedback after running the PMII w/ H2CMR reticle for all of last season, and switching to the...

    Rifle Scopes Zeiss V6 Tracking

    I have one, and have had zero issues with it. While I haven't run a box test, I've verified it's clicks to 1380 and it was hitting where it was supposed to with my SAUM. Personally, I love it (the 3-18) model for a long range hunting rifle. I normally shoot about that power anyway, even on a...

    Washington State tax when guns shipped from out of state?

    Did he say KY or WA? If you can prove someone already paid WA sales tax, you're good to go. If I sold you a gun and we went to the FFl for a transfer for example, I already paid sales tax on my invoice, and you don't pay it again. I've done with with local purchases. I couldn't see them...

    Washington State tax when guns shipped from out of state?

    For me a they went off MSRP of the components, but no labor. So they looked up action, barrel, stock, trigger, etc... Thats when I shipped it to OR! Luckily I asked before it was shipped as I knew they collected sales tax. The FFL I was utilizing said a bill of sale didn't matter, but an invoice...

    Washington State tax when guns shipped from out of state?

    Always been that way! On a fancy custom, I actually ship it to an Oregon FFL and drive down to pickup in OR as they have no sales tax. You can only do this for rifles however, pistols you have to purchase in your resident state. You are correct, in that you get zero say. I've even jammed up...

    Rifle Scopes About to bite the bullet on a S&B PM II 5x25 DT

    I too replaced my S&B PMII 5-25 H2CMR with a NF 7-35 MIL C on my match rifle. Still love the S&B and it went on my long range .300 WM. The ONLY thing I don't like about the S&B is the spacing between each click. Visually, it's hard to look and know exactly where you are. Luckily the clicks are...
