    Rifle Scopes IOR 1.1-4 at Long Distance?

    Re: IOR 1.1-4 at Long Distance? Not sure of others opinions on Burris Optics but I have a few that have served me well. I recently purchased their XTR Tactical 1.5-6x40 with the 7.62 reticle. I have not mounted and used it yet but it seems like a robust scope. I had the nearly identical...

    Rifle Scopes Budget For $300.--$400. Rifle Scope

    Re: Budget For $300.--$400. Rifle Scope For under $200 you can get a Bushnell fixed 10X with Mil Dot. IMO they have to be the best scope for the money. The Super Sniper scopes are a great value as well. I certainly understand that every rifle can't have a $1000 to $2000 scope but...

    Rifle Scopes loaner scope - Hawke Endurance or Simmons AETEC?

    Re: loaner scope - Hawke Endurance or Simmons AETEC? I have no experience with the Hawke and only limited for the AETEC. A friend had the AETEC on his "truck gun" for beating around in the field. I only shot with it a few times but it got the job done. Certainly not a scope I'd be putting...

    Hornady Sonic Cleaner

    Re: Hornady Sonic Cleaner I bought one but haven't used it yet. i will use it/try it for all of my cases but bought it mostly to deal with cleaning my 5.7x28 cases. They have a coating on the brass that supposedly is there to help with feeding/extraction of the cases and some report that...

    building long range AR

    Re: building long range AR The guy that sells them over on the Quarterbore forums makes a nice one but I feel that Noveske's Switchblock is worth the price compared to it. At some point Noveske was only selling the Switchblock on his barrels but that may have changed now. I have to say I...

    284 Win. AR???

    Re: 284 Win. AR??? I would have to 2nd the idea of 7mm WSM being the way to go if you are wanting the .284" bullet in an AR platform. I don't have the name offhand but there was a company specializing in the WSM cartridges in the AR10 platform.

    Troy 13.8 forend

    Re: Troy 13.8 forend I have several Troy rails and like them very much for the money. I also like the fact that they make a continuous look to the rifle, like a monolithic upper that is two pieces. I don't remember what the directions say but I have found when mounting them to tighten the...

    Caution...M1A Porn

    Re: Caution...M1A Porn Some true porn in here! The M1A series of rifles seems to cost a small fortune to upgrade but they sure look awesome when done. I have a SOCOM 16 that will get an VLTOR Modstock and quad rail but that's about it. I intend for my SOCOM to me more of my "iron sight fun...

    6x45?????

    Re: 6x45????? I have a Douglas barrel in 6x45 that is going on an AR build here in the (hopefully) not too distant future. The Les Baer 6x45 ammo is loaded by Black Hills so it should be plenty accurate.

    Which brake for new Sako TRG 22

    Re: Which brake for new Sako TRG 22 That would be awesome! I've only seen the Euro Optics professional pics so an "in person" picture would be great. I am in the market for the identical rifle. Any chance you have the Sako model/part number? Probably something like JRSM### I am trying to...

    Re: Howa in Roedale RCS II "Chocolate starfish" LOL. I love seeing others use the same terminology as me. I think the medical community should adopt some of our slang.

    Sako TRG 22/42 Questions

    I have searched here, Google, other sites, etc. to try to answer my questions but details, even from the Sako/Beretta website seem to be elusive. Essentially I am shopping for two Sako TRG rifles, one a 42 in .338 LM green stock, phosphate barrel and the other a TRG 22 in .308 Win with the...

    Winchester Model 70 Build

    I am about to embark on a build of a Winchester Model 70 in 7mm WSM. I am buying a lightly used factory Model 70 in 7mm WSM for a future build. My plan is to shoot it as is for awhile and not rebarrel it until I have used it a good bit or if it does not have decent enough accuracy. This will...

    PTR-MSG 91 Preimeter rifle

    Re: PTR-MSG 91 Preimeter rifle I don't really want to throw fuel on the fire but Rodriguez (IIRC) said it shoots half-moa and then said "well actually sub half-moa. Since production bolt guns typically are not half-moa out of the box I find that a stretch. If they are that capable I would...

    Rifle Scopes Optic for .204 Ruger AR

    Re: Optic for .204 Ruger AR Everyone here seems to think highly of Nightforce (as do I) but I haven't seem mention of their benchrest/varmint scopes on this site. I have one with the illuminated mil-dot and it is pretty impressive IMO. Mine is the 5.5-22x56 Varminter. Great glass and I...

    Afghanistan AR15 cartridge?

    Re: Afghanistan AR15 cartridge? Personally I like all of the companies & people trying to find/develop the next big thing for the U.S. Military as it provides many wonderful options for my gun addiction. I don't know enough about the process to guess how/where/when they might change or adopt...

    Cheapest way to buy a 338 lapua rifle

    Re: Cheapest way to buy a 338 lapua rifle Would the Rem 700 MLR fit in the Accuracy International chassis? I guess not due to the OAL of the .338LM & mags.
