    GPS for measuring distance?

    I'm in the market for a new portable GPS. I would like to be able to measure straight line distances between two points. Right now I have an old Garmin 60cs that will go out to about 1k yds but then it converts over to tenths of a mile which is too coarse. Since I'm shooting farther now I'd like...

    Rifle Scopes Need some advice on magnification to 1000 yards

    Re: Need some advice on magnification to 1000 yards I would go with the 6.5-20. 10x just doesn't cut it, especially if your shooting paper or small varmints.

    Rifle Scopes IOR 6-24 , NF 5.5-22 or Vortex Razor HD5-20

    Re: IOR 6-24 , NF 5.5-22 or Vortex Razor HD5-20 Nightforce sounds like your best bet, although I myself am leaning towards the IOR scope. Have a few NF's but would like to try the new 6-24x56 scope.

    Rifle Scopes poor man's MOA/MOA?

    Re: poor man's MOA/MOA? I have done it with my NF 5.5-22 scope. I just put up a MOA scale at exactly 100yds and lined up my reticle on it and by adjusting the power ring, set it to match the scale. Think it came out to 19-20X or so. Never really was a fan of FFP although my S&B is FFP.

    New 338 LM build

    Re: New 338 LM build I initially checked it with a Go gauge and then run a new brass casing in to check for clearance. I always verify with the brass that I'm going to use. The two aren't always the same.

    Rifle Scopes Issue with a USO scope.

    Re: Issue with a USO scope. Knob is on the right side and it is marked left windage is counterclockwise, so it sounds like they got it reversed. I'll have the scope owner give USO a call tomorrow.

    Reloading storage cases for 338 LM

    Just started reloading for my 338 LM. After my problem finding plastic cases for my 7mm short mag, thought I better check here. Who makes plastic ammo boxes for the 338?
