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

    I go through the ARs I compete with and replace cam pins, firing pin retainers and this year I decided to change buffer springs. My main competition rifle is five years old and though it only has about 3500 rounds in it I figured why not. Main rifles have mil spec carbine receiver extensions...

    45* or 90* red dot

    ^^ This shouldn’t be a sticky… All this talk about transitions time. How much are you guys transitioning? I think the 2 gun matches with with Throoms (2 or 3” lollipops inside 20 yards) is probably the most I transition in a stage. Otherwise, AC zone reduced and larger targets 100 and in...

    NX vs ATACR

    I have both the G3 and he NX8 and as of three weeks ago have competed with both. (4 years with the G3, three stages with the NX8) The g3 is a little easier to get behind, both “eye box” and eye relief. The NX8 has better illumination and is lighter. I also like the FC DMX better than the...

    Hope to put a face to the ‘Name”. Unless I’m dead of just can’t get a spot I’ll be there for at least the 10k, if not for the 5k day with my kiddo.

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

    I don’t remember the exact count, but I think something like 95 rifle and 100 pistol if you went 100%. I ended up using like 4 rifle mags and 6 pistol mags (21 rounders). Legion guys wanted a higher pistol count last year, and overall higher round count with seven stages. I enjoy the bigger...

    Suppressors Ocm 5 on 6arc

    Nope. I can’t speak for the OCM5 but the AEM5 will gas you hard if you run 4-5 rapidly, even with the PRI Gasbuster. I still love the can and would 100% buy again.

    Run-N-Gun [Centerfire Biathlon] kit - What do you run?

    At Midnight Madness in March there was a stage with steel out at like 150 yards , across a ravine. Guy a few spots it front of me shot a flasher off one. The RO had to go out there and try to fix it, under NODS. I got a good 17 minute rest and he got fucking smoked running up and down wooded...

    MK 12 Picture & Discussion Thread

    I ran the RECCE and the mod0 in a few stages at a 2 gun yesterday. RECCE ran fine, though I had an issue getting a round to strip from a mag post movement. Odd thing was, I used that mag in the first shooting box. Was low in ammo and instead of dropping it post HVT shot (which I fucking missed...

    MK 12 Picture & Discussion Thread

    I couldn’t say, but I personally prefer rings over mounts and I still have probably 7-8 sets of Badgers and just shitcanned a set of Nightforce steel that I bought used with some questionable lapping. I like the option to add a dot on rifles that might see competition/ field use but I’m...

    Member here put me on these this morning. Not what you’re looking for but this will work for me. Ordered a set of a 1.5 lightweight rings and this ring cap this morning. Going to re-do the mod0 w/32mm NXS with these and try a couple comps...

    Red Dot 30mm ring caps for Badger or Nightforce 30mm rings - do they exist?

    Not yet. I didn’t buy it as it appears to be set up for 24mm objective scopes.

    Red Dot 30mm ring caps for Badger or Nightforce 30mm rings - do they exist?

    I have been searching to find a replacement ring cap for the Badger Ordnance or Nightforce 30mm rings. Not the one piece mounts, the older rings. I’d like to put 90* dots on my mk12s and I have come up short. The 32mm objective (circumference larger than 1.3”) of NXS compact prevents use of...

    MK 12 Picture & Discussion Thread

    So nice to see these rifles not only live on, but get shot. I’m bringing both my RECCE and my Mod 0 to the next multi gun match. It’s time to shake them out. If I could find an old Badger ring cap that will support a modern red dot ,I’d compete with the mod0 more often. I really wish PMM...

    Is it worth reloading precision ammo on a single stage versus progressive press?

    I loaded every single round of rifle for 22 years on a Rock Chucker. Recently I bought a used 500 for 5.56 as I a shooting a lot more 2 gun and 500 rounds of 5.56 on a Rock Chucker is a 5+ hour endeavor . I love it, and I think it could absolutely load match ammo IF the case prep was done...

    Is it worth reloading precision ammo on a single stage versus progressive press?

    Are you dropping into a pan and using a funnel die or have you found a way to drop directly into the die/case?

    2025 Tenet Midnight Madness Run and Gun March22

    It really is a nice place. They have a lot of steel and one of the longest rifle ranges in this area at 1550 yards. Staff is a good bunch of guys as is the owner, Pat. (He also ran the event again this year).

    2025 Tenet Midnight Madness Run and Gun March22

    Was another great match. This one was a bit more challenging for me, as they reduce points (added time) for C zone by 1.5 seconds and 3 points for D zone. 10 seconds for a failure to engage. I’m not used to this and it caused me to think about height over bore more but ultimately I still...
