    Kuhl pants?

    I've got some and really like them. Having said that, I would not consider them "field pants" in a pure sense. They are "urban/mountain" pants! However, having said that, they would work fine for field pants. I've had a pair of the heavy fabric ones for a year and they are well-made, have held...

    Rifle Scopes Longer Range MIL Reticles

    This. For example, the S&B 3-20x50 has a 2.1m FOV @ 100m at 20x. That equates to a FOV of 21 mils. If the reticle is subtended 10 mils from the cross hair, you are good for a 10 mil hold at 20x. If your reticle is not subtended to 10 mils from the cross hairs, or if the FOV is less than 20...

    Rifle Scopes 1 Scope, 2 rifles best option

    Just get a good one-piece mount like a Near Alphamount, Spuhr or Aadmount and use the appropriate wrench when switching. If you are consistent on torquing bolts, you'll be pretty close each time. You just need to record the difference in elevation and windage between rifles when scope is...

    Rangefinders

    Edit! ... I've got a Zeiss Victory PRF with a donut reticle with horizontal and verticle lines that extend from the donut. It's got nice glass and works great in various conditions out past 1200. You have to hold on the bottom of the donut for good accuracy. It also has a number of ballistics...

    Rifle Scopes S&B 12-50 P4F Reticle Subtensions

    Maybe your 5-25 is a P4 and not P4 Fein? Here are the subtensions for both. Thickness of the main lines are .07 mil vs. .035 mil respectively.

    Taking a training class, knowing you will struggle?

    I'd look for a class where you can rent an appropriate setup, like K&M Precision Rifle Training, which rents GAP rifles. Basic Long Range Precision Rifle Course | K&M Precision Rifle Training LLC

    Anyone have a pic of mini FTE installed?

    Here's the MRAD on a 26" medium Palma. Works like a champ, and it comes in 3 different diameters to more closely match up with various profiles. .860", .900" & .960".

    Rifle Scopes Reticle pictures - S&B H2CMR and Hensoldt NH1

    Ditto others on dialing elevation and holding wind with the .2 mil wind holds. Also, I find the circles give an easier time of not getting lost in the reticle. The more I use it, the more I like it.

    Rifle Scopes Hensoldt Scopes

    Please ... don't judge the quality of the Hensoldt glass based on my pictures! The difference you see is mostly the result of focusing issues of the camera through the scope. Those were taken with my Leica camera, and the following were taken with my iPhone. You can see the variation from...

    precision rifles... show em

    So, I had an FN SPR that shot erratic. Without getting into details, since I have a GAP Crusader in .308 that shoots great, I decided to convert the FN to 6.5CR. I had originally bought the rifle from Mark at Short Action Customs, so we worked out an equitable deal to do the conversion. I...

    Rifle Scopes Reticle pictures - S&B H2CMR and Hensoldt NH1

    This. The glass in this s&b is better than the Henny but not by much, and it resolves better. The photos don't capture the color, contrast, etc. accurately to compare. The purpose was to show the reticles with an interesting live animal in the cross hairs.

    Rifle Scopes Reticle pictures - S&B H2CMR and Hensoldt NH1

    I was able to get some good pictures this weekend through two scopes showing the reticles. I am posting with the thought this might help someone in a buying decision or just to satiate someone's curiosity. Distance was a little more than 100 yards to the Blue Heron. I would disregard...

    Rifle Scopes Hensoldt Scopes

    I have two Hensoldts, 3-15 and 4-16, and an S&B 3-20. The 3-15 has a standard mil-dot reticle, the 4-16 has the NH-1, and the S&B has the H2CMR. I've waffled back and forth about which I like best, but have finally come firmly down on the S&B over the Hensoldts. Having said that, the Henny is...

    Anyone using Federal M118LR?

    I've shot it side by side with FGMM 168 and 175 from my GAP Crusader, and the M118LR is hotter and groups tighter, but has occasional flyers that don't occur with the FGMM. Even with flyers, I'm getting almost .5 moa groups. From the GAP 23" barrel: FGMM 175 = 2637 fps M118LR = 2694 fps The...
