    Going from G3 1-10 to HD5 2-10?

    I feel stupid now. The FC-MOA does go to 30 MOA in the reticle. That said, I think I may try the Leupold.

    Going from G3 1-10 to HD5 2-10?

    If I end up changing (adding another scope, I don’t sell shit anymore) I’ll certainly report back. Appreciate the feedback from all of you. Thank you. Chris

    Going from G3 1-10 to HD5 2-10?

    Haha, good call. My backup rifle has a ACOG TA01/RMR on it. I may not have gone back to a variable if the reticle tracked better with my 77gr handloads.

    Going from G3 1-10 to HD5 2-10?

    I’ve been shooting MOA from 5 to 1000 yards for 24 years. I can shoot MIL but I have two decades of DOPE saved and instantly accessible in my head. If the match is only out to 300 so yards this is a non issue , but if we start to push out I am slower with MILs as I have to think or God forbid...

    Going from G3 1-10 to HD5 2-10?

    Though getting behind the nx8 1-8 is a little tighter than my g3, I’d be ticked shitless if they just put the MOAR reticle in it. Maybe add some thickness outside 25 MOA-ish. It would have been perfect for me. Run it between 4-8x and drive on. FC DMX is fine but I don’t need the holds , and...

    Going from G3 1-10 to HD5 2-10?

    Not all lotta love for the 2-10, or not a lot of action shooters??? @C_Does video was pretty good, it helped but I’d love to hear from a field shooter who actually uses this scope or something else like it. Particularly interested in sight picture from 10-400 yards with one parallax setting...

    Going from G3 1-10 to HD5 2-10?

    I have competed 2gun the last couple seasons with a G3 1-10 MOA and I hate the reticle. To me, the 200y zero and the thinness of the reticle make the scope less intuitive inside 150 and when I need the more precise hits out far the reticle is so thin that I have a hard time picking it up and...

    MK 12 Picture & Discussion Thread

    It covers a lot of the same ground as the Mod H. To me, having built a 3 of the 4 mk12 rifles, the RECCE is easier to handle when I compete and out to 500 I have seen no real difference in performance. If I still had the ModH it would be a harder decision, but having an 18” in the same if was a...

    MK 12 Picture & Discussion Thread

    I have most of what I need to do another mk12 upper. Was going to build a mod1, but I shoot the 18” mod0 so little now I’ve had a hard time getting motivated. I could have my CMP SR barrel reprofile, but I’m not sure that would get me behind this rifle. I have 30” Krieger 1:8 that was on my...

    2024 Legion Memorial Run and Gun, Honoring the Fallen as a Family

    I am religious about the gym, but about 5 years ago I was running pretty regularly and I got a j shaped stress fracture just below the head of my shin bone. the Doc at Elite told me it was going to require removing my knee cap and putting a rod down my shin bone to stabilize it. I got it to...

    2024 Legion Memorial Run and Gun, Honoring the Fallen as a Family

    I try to stay pretty fit. Since the 2022 event I keep my weight under 240 most of the year. I am not a runner and I try to change my workout program to ramp up cardio and cut to about 220-225 about 8 weeks out . I am struggling this year to loose the weight. I’m doing 800-1000 calorie workouts...

    How much extra fouling was on the rounds in the mag? Any issues at all with functionality, specifically going into battery?

    MK 12 Picture & Discussion Thread

    I have been running one on a RECCE and it does well. Eye placement is a little tight, but it’s a small scope so expected. Only issue I’ve had with the reticle (FC-DMX ) is getting lost in the aiming dots under stress. I think I can overcome that by turning the illumination on dimly so the...

    Blue Buffer spring drama. Malfunctions with new springs. Anyone else seen this?

    I shoot with a couple long range service rifle shooters (think 20” 308win pushing 185s 2600fps) ) that swear by them. I assume you tube them in the small frames?

    Blue Buffer spring drama. Malfunctions with new springs. Anyone else seen this?

    I’m not sure how I could tell. I bought these around 2023 from mag warehouse I think. Edit. These are not duramags. I have five is six of these as well. Maybe I got NOS?

    Blue Buffer spring drama. Malfunctions with new springs. Anyone else seen this?

    I’ll check the pin. Bolt release was moving freely, as was the charging handle. Very strange feeling to pull a charging handle all the way to the stop with zero resistance. We tried the colt 20 rounder before we changed buffer springs. I think the blue is just too much for this rig. All good...

    Blue Buffer spring drama. Malfunctions with new springs. Anyone else seen this?

    They are, however I been Running this buffer in this tube for 5 years. Not saying this rifle is having issue, but having a bolt was a first for me. The extension tube is not bent or dented. Issue 2, shot a 2 gun match with recce six weeks ago. I could see this one maybe needing a few oz...
