    Limited Options, R-25 vs RRA LAR-8

    Re: Limited Options, R-25 vs RRA LAR-8 I have two of the LAR8s with free floated stainless barrels (one 20 and one 26 inch) Accuracy is outstanding! I usually run 155 Amax or 155 Scenars over Varget and routinely shoot 1/2 moa 3 shot groups at 100 yards. They generally group the same as my...

    Rifle Scopes so if i came up with an innovative idea for glass

    Re: so if i came up with an innovative idea for glass You can't "demand" that someone sign a non disclosure agreement but you can certainly request it as condition of the discussion. They are so common place that it would usually be assumed that one would be required for such a discussion...

    Rifle Scopes NXS 2.5-10x Hard to see?

    Re: NXS 2.5-10x Hard to see? I had one with that reticle and sold it. I thought the reticle was difficult to see in some hunting conditions. It was replaced with a Mil Dot/.1 Mil Zero Stop version that I am VERY pleased with. (easier to see the reticle) Then I had to have another, and...

    Rifle Scopes Advice for NightForce 8-32 x 56 NXS needed....

    Re: Advice for NightForce 8-32 x 56 NXS needed.... I use the 8-32 NXS with Zero Stop and NP2DD reticle. My opinions- The "dot" is more intuitive for centering in a round target. I can shoot just as well with cross hairs but the dot seems slightly faster and easier to me. The 8-32 NXS...

    Rock River Varmint A4 1/8 vs. 1/12 Twist ?

    Re: Rock River Varmint A4 1/8 vs. 1/12 Twist ? 1:8 twist has served me well shooting 52-77 grain bullets. I'm surprised RRA offers a 1:12 I have/had 16, 18, 20 and 24 inch SS 1:8 twist barrels. Accuracy was very comparable with all of them. I parted with the 24 inch as it was a bit...

    Rifle Scopes Traveling with a USO scope in my carry-on

    Re: Traveling with a USO scope in my carry-on I've flown with scopes several times and haven't had any problems. (yet) I refer to it as a "very expensive optic" that I was afraid to place in checked luggage. I would also advise checking in early in case your TSA agents are less accommodating...

    Semi Auto 1/4 MOA group?

    Re: Semi Auto 1/4 MOA group? I would consider a 1/4 moa group with an AR-10 type rifle very believable IF the shooter is taking his best 3 shot group of the day. I fired 3 consecutive 3 shot groups with a new RRA LAR 8 that averaged in the .3s. One of the groups was very close to 1/4 moa...

    Rifle Scopes EFR Target Scopes for 22 tactical matches?

    Re: EFR Target Scopes for 22 tactical matches? I am looking for the same thing! The Leupold 6.5-20x40 EFR will focus at 10M but has AO rather than side focus. Custom shop should be able to provide your reticle choice. I have heard that the S&B 5-25PM will focus around 10M but I can't bring...

    TRG-22 .308 Sweet Loads..... Please

    Re: TRG-22 .308 Sweet Loads..... Please Mine seems to shoot everything well but... The 155s (Amax and Scenar) seemed to perform slightly better than 168 or 175 Sierras or 168/178 Amax. (Everything seemed to be in the .25-.75 MOA range) The Moly versions seemed to have a very slight...

    Rifle Scopes NF 2.5-10 owners - Do you wish you had parallax..

    Re: NF 2.5-10 owners - Do you wish you had parallax.. Great scopes. I only shoot for groups with them at 100-200 yards but groups in the .3s-.5s are common. I don't expect any better from myself or my rifles regardless of optics. The same rifles are usually equiped with 5.5-22s and 8-32s but...

    Rifle Scopes NightForce scope with cracked inner lense

    Re: NightForce scope with cracked inner lense Thanks for the update/additional details. I don't blame you a bit for needing to vent. Look on the bright side...we are cheaper than a therapist! It would be interesting to hear what (if any) explanation is given by NF. Hopefully they can...

    Rifle Scopes NightForce scope with cracked inner lense

    Re: NightForce scope with cracked inner lense Sorry to hear about your new scope! It wasn't clear from your post and I am curious... Is it still holding zero? Can you still adjust your point of impact. Bottom line, if you were in a hunting camp or a combat zone would it have remained...

    AR 10 load data

    Re: AR 10 load data 155 Amax 45.6 Varget Lapua Brass CCI BR2 2.805 OAL ~2830fps Very Accurate in my 26 inch RRA LAR8. I fired a 3 shot group at 100 today to check zero (loaning it to a friend for a match over the weekend). It was right at 1/2 MOA. I fired two more groups at 200 and they...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold Mark 4 8.5-25x50 LRT Tracking problem?

    Re: Leupold Mark 4 8.5-25x50 LRT Tracking problem? I had a VX3 8.5-25 LR Target scope that performed in a similar manner. After several shots it would settle where it was supposed to be. I sent it back and received a new one from Leupold about two weeks later. I then replaced that one...

    16" or 18" .308 barrel for hunting & defense/SHTF?

    Re: 16" or 18" .308 barrel for hunting & defense/SHTF? The 20 inch barrel would drop 1.8 inches more at 300 yards, 12.6 more at 600 and 51 inches more at 1000 yards vs the 26 inch barrel. The 16 inch barrel would drop 3 inches more at 300, 20.4 more at 600 and 84 more at 1000 yards vs the 26...

    Re: 16" or 18" .308 barrel for hunting & defense/SHTF? I posted this some time ago in a different part of the forum but it might be of interest to you- (the 16 inch below was equiped with a flash hider) I recently had the opportunity to shoot 3 different Rock River Arms LAR8s with different...

    Rifle Scopes Uggg, Leupold Mk4 LR/T has black specs in FOV

    Re: Uggg, Leupold Mk4 LR/T has black specs in FOV Uncle Sam sent a large number of scopes back to Leupold for this very problem. It apparently "happened" in transit with an entire shipment of brand new scopes. (Yes, Leupold is replacing the scopes) One theory is that the internal...

    Sako TRG-22 trigger

    Re: Sako TRG-22 trigger I am glad to hear that it is working for you! I have never had an issue with mine, but now that I think about it I have been feeding them a drop of CLP a couple of times per year.

    Sako TRG-22 trigger

    Re: Sako TRG-22 trigger Hi bm11, Perhaps you could post a photo of the potentially worn part? There are a lot of TRG owners here that might be able to "look and compare" to provide you with a better evaluation of the part in question.
