    Best all round .308 barrel length?

    Oh no. I mean exactly 22.731415926" You see, since 22/7 was the ancient closest approximation of Pi and 3.1415926 is Pi out to 7 decimals, if you construct the barrel length as I specified, your rifle will achieve true enlightenment and you will never miss a target.

    Rifle Scopes ARD or Sunshade

    After thinking about it, I can see a possible advantage when shooting into the sun when it's at a very low angle. The narrow long tubes would create a more favorable shading of the lens due to the angles involved. I'm going to have to experiment with my ARD on my USO.

    Rifle Scopes ARD or Sunshade

    Yes - if you are getting shot at. I can't think of any other advantage, and it will impact light transmission, albeit minimally.

    Rifle Scopes Scope for 0-600 yards??

    I've got a USO 1.8-10x44 on an sr-25. More than enough scope for OP's distances and very nice glass.

    Rifle Scopes Scope for 0-600 yards??

    Scope for 0-600 yards?? If that's available it's a great option. I'd be looking at 3-12 or 15x or so with great glass. For your range I would want no more than 3 or 4 x at the bottom end. Khales 3-12 would be an excellent choice. Great glass at 12x is better than good glass at16x and is...

    Where to buy the best match .308 168 BTHP or 175gr SMK

    Did the same a while back, then bought 500 more from SG Ammo. The UN ammo was bulk packed, the SG ammo was boxed. I've shot a fair amount of the bulk supply with very good results. It clocks about 60 fps faster than FGGM out of my GAP Crusader and groups tighter, but I do see a few flyers.

    Post PICS of your FN SPR A1a, A1, A3G or A5 Rifle.

    Started its life as a 308 but is now a 6.5CR, 26" medium Palma Bartlein barrel. Work done by Mark Gordan at Short Action Customs. It now wears a Hensoldt 4-16x56 with NH1 reticle, and I took off the adjustable cheek rest and replaced it with a Triad pad.

    Scope base

    Badger or Near Mfg. of Canada. I'd get the Near. Call Richard Near, he will get it to you quickly. He can also make you a one-piece scope mount that rocks.

    Rifle Scopes Swaro z6i 1-6 vs Razor Gen II 1-6

    I too would love to be informed. I own the Gen II and it rocks for its intended purpose. I use it on my 3-gun rifle. The dot is perfect, and the holdover subtensions are mil-based (1/2 mils) with wind-hold marks. Glass is bright and clear with wide FOV. I've never heard anyone who owns one...

    Protection dogs ?

    $80K is crazy money! Well, here's my "protection" dog. I use the word loosely, since he is not trained to attack, bite, etc. He's from German show lines with fairly high drives and strong bite. When I play tug with him, he'll hold on forever while I lift him up and swing him around. He's got...

    Giving Snipers a Bad Reputation

    This, or something along these lines. It seems too sophisticated for some local dirt-clod blasters to execute. The Naval Surface Warfare group that helped investigate believed it was a professional job. The attackers specifically targeted the oil cooling systems, had a well-planned approach...

    Santa Cruz has everything you need. Call them and tell them what you want. You can set the SC kit up so that you can keep a mag inserted in the rifle but position the locking cuff behind the charging handle so that it cannot be charged until unlocked and removed like this...

    Best anti cant device?

    I like the Accuracy First units. And definitely scope mounted, not rail mounted. This allows you to adjust the level to accurately reflect the cross hairs.
