    Bore height for Kestrel

    I use the same method as Rob and Dom. Any time I need to measure the scope for a firing solution, I measure to the centerline of my turret.

    Ammo: .22LR in dedicated AR-15

    I've had a RRA NM A4 on order for over a year and if it doesn't show up soon I'm cancelling the order and buying a Keystone Accuracy barrel and building an upper. For those of you shooting ether RRA/Nordic/JP or Ceiner/Atchison builds, have you had any problems with CCI SV or Norma TAC-22 ammo...

    Help with vortex razor gen 3 1-10

    I'm assuming it was born of the SVPS program and the ATACR we got ranges (in meters) shoulder width so that's why I asked. It looks a while lot like the FC DMx but with retard proof rage scale like the T8.

    Help with vortex razor gen 3 1-10

    Why should it be? I'm asking because the MoA is Imperial and the MRAD is metric by nature. An IPSC is also metric by nature. It is feasible, maybe even natural, that one might put a metric ranging scale in a metric reticle for people who largely deal in meters.

    Bushnell DMR/XRS 3 or Mark 5HD?

    Well, nobody asked about Burris junk.

    Bushnell DMR/XRS 3 or Mark 5HD?

    The Burris is nearly 30oz which is absurd for what it is. They are also a mid tier optic, always have been, and always will be. They are Beretta/Sako/Tikka's cut rate optic behind Steiner As a company they suck too; I've had two buddies go to work there, both quit, and neither are bitches.

    NX8 4-32 or Mark 5HD 7-35?

    I use the Mark 5 3.6-18x at work, had one on a match rifle (small frame gasser) for a bit until match rules changed and I traded for a Gen3 1-10x. Of the Mark 5 options, I like it but it's the hardest of the three for me to really get set up well. I had the same issue with the Mark 6. I think...

    Bushnell DMR/XRS 3 or Mark 5HD?

    For a hunting rig I'd go with the Mark 5 based on weight. I'm not always concerned with total weight because with a heavy gun a heavy optic works, but if you're hunting gun is fairly light a heavy scope will make it feel like a Harley hauling firewood. I've had both, like both, currently hunt...

    The manual also says that the subtensions are only correct at max mag in the MoA portion. I also was told the original design was for a 40" target.

    Help with vortex razor gen 3 1-10

    I know this is an old thread, but does anyone know if the top ranging scale is for an IPSC or an E-Type? The manual says silhouette, which to me means E-Type, but the image is a silhouette. I just picked mine up and I can validate it but prefer the easy ask. Also, what are the chances that the...

    Rifle Scopes Extended 34mm scope mount for an ar15

    I would say there is almost no way you need a mount that will place the scope that far forward unless you are shooting SR with a nose to charging handle weld, are over 6'4, or are shooting with your stock collapsed (in which case you should lengthen it unless you are half the height of a regular...

    Low mass system

    Why? I have a reliable and soft shooting gun. I would need a quantifiable reason to change out a working system.

    Low mass system

    I shot it for precision this evening and nothing changed: from a CAR buffer to 1oz buffer, with gas re-tuned, it's still a 1 MoA gun. It's still reliable: shoulder fired, hip fired, and two hand pistol fired. Now, I just need to compare two muzzle devices because the Kahntrol had more bounce...

    Low mass system

    I still need to accuracy test it. The original configuration was shooting just over 1 MoA for 10-shots with 77gn ammo which is now a little bouncy.

    Low mass system

    As an interim solution I took the weights out of the buffer (1oz now) and timed the gas for M193. It's very soft shooting and reliably running for a couple hundred rounds now.

    Low mass system

    I've already got springs for the ULW so I'll probably get that one since you can't say definitively one is better than the other. I'm primarily a long gun guy who dabbles in burn it down matches but occasionally I get the bug in my ass.

    Low mass system

    Compared to the TACCOM 3 Stage or LW, do you like one over the other so far, or are you lumping them into "normal buffer system" because they aren't capture or use magnets?
