    Rifle Scopes Steiner 5-25x56

    So I've been looking for the info on the retrofit of the turrets that was to take place after the first of the year. Haven't seen any details about how or where to send scope for mods. I have two of these and would like to get them in before match season gets here. Any more info available...

    Range Report .308 155 Scenar vs 175 SMK

    One thing I didn't see mentioned is the recoil difference, shooting 60 -70 rounds of 155 to me is a lot less pounding then the 175's. Shot 185 Bergers one season of F-class and got some of the best scores I've had, but the recoil turned me off them and went back to the 155's.

    221 fireball in a short barrel

    Shoot one of the CZ 527 221 FB, mostly 50 gr. ballistic tips @ 3000 using Little gun around 13 gr. as I recall. Performs great out to 300 yards, shot it to 500 on calm days. Very nice light accurate package, set trigger is sweet. You can put what ever barrel you want on these rifles, had a...

    Rifle Scopes For the same $, premier light or nightforce nxs?

    Use both scopes and both have their merits. With the Premier you get FFP and some of the best glass out there. NF gives you more elevation, choice of reticles, illumination, in my opinion better turrets, probably not more precise just more positive clicks. Other considerations would be physical...

    6mm Tac Match cartridge comparisons

    I've been told I'm a 6mm whore, 6 Dasher, 6XC, 6X47L, 243, 6 RAT, makes buying bullets in quantity easier. The 243 was the hardest for me to get shooting well, took around 200 rounds to find a load. The one I ended up with is a good one (42.5 gr 4831sc with a 105 Berger Hibred). 6 Dasher is by...

    Rifle Scopes Swarovski rifle scopes- What are peoples' thoughts about durability?

    There are a lot of the 1-6 Swaro's being used for 3 gun and those get a lot of abuse. Thrown in barrels, stuck through ports, banged and thumped around for a whole match then on to the next one. Mine has held up well and don't see or hear of them going down. Great glass and good choice for 3 gun.

    Hunting & Fishing Game Cameras

    Using 3 Moultrie M-990i currently, they are new so no idea how they will last. Easy to set up, good daytime pics, night are ok although not a lot of experience yet. No flash or glow at night, capable of video and sound. 70 ft. no-glow nighttime illumination and they trip at longer distance than...

    Rifle Scopes .22LR scope?

    Had a Luppy 3-9X40 MK 2 on my CZ and it worked ok, ran across a 3.5-15X50 NF NPR1 and mounted it, what an improvement! Kill rate on Blackbirds went way up, even out to 155yd, several in a row at this range. Haven't shot much past 200 with it since mounting the NF, but when shooting 350 yd. with...

    Range Report Help with Shooter app

    Don't usually run the can for matches so want my "hard" zero unsuppressed. Like you I hold wind and leads for movers for that matter. JLR's solution worked for the elevation shift and I just dialed in the correction for windage offset while using the can. The data was right on out to 800 yd. so...

    Range Report Help with Shooter app

    Hey guys is there a way to compensate for suppressor shift using the Shooter Ballistic app. My zero shift with the suppressor is 0.5 mill low and 0.2 mils left from my unsuppressed zero. I added a suppressed version of the rifle to the firearm list thinking there would be a way to compensate for...

    Range Report Optimal conditions for vapor trail?

    The conditions I've noticed producing the best trace are high humidity, low wind, morning or late afternoon sun. Winds above 10 mph seem to disapate the trace and move it from it's true path. When the sun is directly over head it " washes out" definition of the trace and causes glare. A good...

    New build for the 6.5 Grendel Wildcat fans... 6mm Fat Rat

    Been shooting a 6 RAT since Greg came up with the round, think mine was one of the first 10, some time in 2010 I think. Tried a lot of different bullets and powders and settled on 105 Amax over 28.5 gr. of 8208 @ 2740 fps, using Wolf SR mag primers, oal 2.265. The barrel is a 22" 1 in 7.5 twist...

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce f1 vs us optics lr-17

    Have both scopes and would go with the NF F1 for that app. Lighter and better glass in my opinion. My F1 is on a 6 mm AR and performs well out to a grand.

    Best Barrel Contour

    I've been very happy with med Palma and varmint contours in a 24" length. Shot several matches and no problems with heat or accuracy. They carry well, makes for a nice comp setup.

    Range Report Moving range targets

    We do movers out to 600 yd. using targets attached to a pole / stick and walk them back and forth behind a berm with only the target showing. Enlist some friends and keep them safe by using a berm or finding a deep enough ditch so they are protected.
