    Milwaukee Packout

    I won a set and I'm not really sure what to do with it either. I keep putting stuff in it, then thinking it's a waste of expensive space. I did think about getting the counter top deal and trying to add a inline fabrication mount to it. I don't think it'd handle more than bullet seating. I'll...

    Hornady is making knockoff/clone bullets (Aeromatch)

    I probably will. I'm on the fence with how I view hornady as a company and I probably can't shoot the difference in a match setting. Maybe I'll buy a box and split it up here on the PX. I'm mentally preparing to get roasted 🤣

    Hornady is making knockoff/clone bullets (Aeromatch)

    If Lapua decided to drop the 6.5CM I'd switch to the 6.5x47 after this barrel. That's a huge investment in tooling to drop but I guess it depends how salty they are. The same high volume shooters that hornady is chasing happens to be the lapua customer base.

    Hornady is making knockoff/clone bullets (Aeromatch)

    Wonder how this will effect lapua brass availability for the hornady cartridges. I guess if the bottom line is all that matters then things won't change much. I also seems to remember hearing that hornady was not willing to release any 6.8 (.277) bullets because of the 6.8 western being a real...

    Rifle Scopes What is your favorite rifle scope?

    I think the MR4 reticle is still king. Clean, simple, uniform and it still gives .2 mil increments. I'm guessing the floating cross on the FML-TR1 is broken up in .2s?

    Rifle Scopes What is your favorite rifle scope?

    I ended up getting the ATACR 4-16. I didn't expect the turrets to be that big of a factor in how I view a scope but man, I like the Zerohold turret. Still wish they weren't translating. Initial impression is that the ZP5 is still a little nicer to get behind but I've also been shooting that...

    Hornady is making knockoff/clone bullets (Aeromatch)

    Pretty much exactly what I thought. A lot of us had it pretty good. Tell the fed to screw off, don't do some of the things we'd like to... I know a lot of people that lost their jobs though. I'm glad they stuck to their guns. My point is that you're expecting a CEO of a multimillion dollar...

    Hornady is making knockoff/clone bullets (Aeromatch)

    I'm sure hornadys legal team has patent stuff sorted out. I'd just like to see some effort in not ripping off a little guy. The Henderson is a great design, I can see why they copied it.

    Hornady is making knockoff/clone bullets (Aeromatch)

    I'm guessing someone will pop up selling 50ct bags so we can try these without buying 500. I'm fine with the competition, at least with the bullets they aren't "punching down" like they did with the Henderson.

    The AR15 Picture Thread

    That thing looks great. I'm building nearly the exact same rifle. Not sure on barrel yet though. I've got the MRP 13.25 and the NF 4-16 should be in on Tuesday. What do you think of the MRP for this role? I figured it should eliminate any POI shift from bipod/tripod/barricades.

    We're all hard on our stuff. That's not what I mean. I can tell you about the durability of all the scopes I own. But that's not the info I'm after.

    Rifle Scopes What is your favorite rifle scope?

    Yeah. That's really where I'm at, either accept that it's probably the best scope for $2500 and use it for what it is or just get a ZCO420. Although, at the $2500 price point you'd think you'd atleast get a modern scope. I'll have to revisit the ZP5 3-15. I'm really not sure how to compare...

    Rifle Scopes What is your favorite rifle scope?

    Thought about it. I like the bomb proof aspect of the ATACR and would like it for SPR and hunting use.
