    Rifle Scopes Range of Magnification for 6.5CM AR

    Re: Range of Magnification for 6.5CM AR Depending on your zero distance and load, the SS 5-20x is capable of getting you out to 1000 yards in a single turn. This obviates the need for a zero stop. I'm going to replace the mil/mil NF F1 on my 6.5CM AR with an SS 5-20x. I really like what I'm...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex PST 2.5-10x44mm Review

    Re: Vortex PST 2.5-10x44mm Review Just a quick note about the detents at 2.5x, 3.3x, 5x: Vortex put those there so you can use easy fractions of the reticle markings for ranging and holds using the SFP reticle at powers other than the native 1:1 ranging/hold setting of 10x.

    Mk 12 mod1 ish question

    Re: Mk 12 mod1 ish question I ended up assembling a bunch of great components to come up with a Mk12-ish rifle. It works just great and the Tubbs flat wire action spring really damps down the recoil. The Surefire can is very effective and my POI shift is 2" straight down at 100 yards. The...

    Rifle Scopes New SWFA SS 1-4 HD just arrived

    Re: New SWFA SS 1-4 HD just arrived Any plans for a cattail for the zoom ring? I'm not sure how fast 3GunStuff or R&R Targets will make them unless SWFA is asking for them... As for the locking target turrets, I'm almost positive this feature shows up at the request of military users.

    Advanced Marksmanship Interesting thumb placement for precision shooting

    I've seen this twice now, once with Monty LeClair (SEAL) on Larry Vicker's TV show shooting the FN SSR and once in this photo from the 1st USASOC Sniper Competition: Does this technique of not wrapping the thumb around the pistol grip improve trigger control, recoil control, or...? I'd...

    Mega .308 Preview

    Re: Mega .308 Preview Hey Paulo, Nice writeup, as usual. I agree the Noveske barrels are a bit overgassed. I have a Tubbs flat wire spring in my MA-TEN carbine receiver extension and ejection out of my Noveske 6.5 Creedmoor barrel is right around 4-5 o'clock.
