    New rifle - Blaser R8

    A stuck case from defective over-pressure ammunition, then. "Jam" is a pretty wide term... I haven't encountered it or heard of anyone encountering a stuck case in a Blaser. I'm not sure how well it'd extract. Load ammunition to safe pressures, no problem? I have been told by Blaser...

    New rifle - Blaser R8

    Its one thing I don't like much, but it's just the trigger lever really. It's necessary with the action layout.

    Lilja 6.5 Grendel SBR

    I'd be all over it if I was in the US. a Grendel is still the best thing you can jam into an AR15, even down to a 10.5" .300aac is overrated + over marketed, who gives a shit about subsonic etc etc

    Rifle Scopes Browe BCO vs. ACOG

    There's room for improvement in all of the optics of this type. Ultimately I'd like a 1/4x Elcan SpecterDR style optic, with a fiber optic/led lit reticle, in a size/weight similar to an ACOG with internal adjustments and choice of mounting systems - preferably mount in a 34mm ring a la...

    Experience with Arcteryx Khard 30 or 45 Backpack?

    the side pockets on them are super useless. I have the 30 and 45. Pretty awesome other than that. I'd consider buying the non-leaf "Miura" instead 'cos it doesn't have the daisy chains and shit all over it. No compression straps tho

    Rifle Scopes Why No Elcans!!

    Rifle Scopes Why No Elcans!!

    I like mine a lot and haven't had any of the problems the internet talks about but a 1-6 Mk6 would weigh/cost the same and probably be more flexible
