    Precision Armament 5.56 EFAB Hybrid Muzzle Device review.

    I see they drew inspiration from KAC. The MAMS devices are very impressive so I am not surprised this one performs well.

    Rifle Scopes Atacr gen 2

    I agree but at the same time the ATACR compares favorably against it's peers, even in 2024. NF certainly doesn't rush things to market.

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce 4-20 ATACR vs 5-25 ATACR

    I had two Leupold MK8 1.1-8's the other day and the difference in glass quality was astounding. It makes me take any single-example comparison with a grain of salt. It would be interesting to have someone like glassaholic or Ilya review two of the same model against each other.

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce 4-20 ATACR vs 5-25 ATACR

    It's become a regurgitated talking point to dog the 5-25. Maybe I got lucky but mine, optically, outperforms my 4-16x42 and is neck and neck with my 7-35. There is always a variance in scopes, sometimes I think it's more than what we expect (especially considering what they cost). There are good...

    AI AT Accuracy Problems

    Could be a million things, try a different ammo. No reason to suspect the rifle has an issue if it's an isolated incident.

    Rifle Scopes Best High-Magnification LPVO for my use case?

    A used ATACR 1-8 is your best option.

    Best flow through suppressor

    19.2 OZ and quite frankly the combined weight of the suppressor + mount is roughly equivalent to a Surefire RC2/RC3 due to how heavy the SF mounts are.

    Ballistics Advantage barrels question... warranty issue approaching epic fail

    Are you sure BA didn’t provide the original barrels to the folks you bought them from? The situation is a bit confusing. Who was the original seller?

    14.5” Geissele Super Duty accuracy test

    Thanks for posting, always interesting to see the variance in brands. I have observed similar results with the PMC M193, it has been the most accurate "cheap" ammo that I have found across a couple of rifles.

    A tale of three Larue's (Large frame review Part 1 - OBR)

    Appreciate the write up. I've never handled the Larue "quick detach" handguards in person, how would they compare to the traditional handguard they provide on the standalone uppers? Do they stay tight over time?

    Early NX8 Issues?

    Have one, am happy with it. Feels like it was worth the money and the glass on mine (relatively recent production) is much better than I expected. Hard to say there's a difference in the glass quality between it and my ATACR.

    MK262

    I will third that Black Hills transitioned to Hornady projectiles in 2023 for the 5.56 OTM. The MK262 remains with the Sierra bullet. In my testing of recent batches of ammunition I have found 5.56 OTM and MK262 to shoot identical velocities. IMI Razorcore 77gr is approximately 80-100 FPS slower...

    Rifle Scopes Will USO Survive???

    Well that was worth resurrecting a 4 month old thread for.

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta - TT525P

    I hope they succeed, I'd love to see a N. American scope manufacturer do well especially if it leads to a greater variety of scopes. At the current price tag the off-kilter elevation knob would drive me nuts; I would not be able to live with that. Fanboy'n hard in this post. My personal...

    Stiller Tac-30 Is one hell of a Action.

    Do you know how it stacks up against all the other options if this is your first tactical rifle? Do you have experience with Surgeons, Defiance, BAT, etc.?
