    Night Vision KAC-Refurbished AN/PVS-30 from USNV

    Is that you, Taylor? That was a lot of fun on the tower. Hits were stupid easy out to 500 on steel. Doc

    Advanced Marksmanship Position Shooting Standards

    There is nothing wrong with taking forever to set up positional shots when you are practicing. You are learning to build a stable position. It takes time at first. Build it right each time at the beginning, and then after time, you will instantly know when something is "off". You will get faster...

    Advanced Marksmanship Position Shooting Standards

    Another question to ask is under what conditions/time constraints. For standard sling supported positions, NRA across the course matches are a great way to assess your positional shooting. The 10 ring on the 200 yard sitting rapid fire target is a little over 3MOA. The 300 yard prone rapid fire...

    Tab Gear Biathlon Sling

    It's a great biathlon sling. The shooting loop works pretty much exactly like his regular slings. On one of the straps is the loop....give it a half turn, run your arm through.....snug the slider up tight above your bicep....and proceed to have a stable shooting platform. The other strap hangs...

    Shot my AAC Micro 7 to 1000 yards today. It's chambered in 300 blackout!

    The first time we took it to 600, the scope didn't have enough travel, so I milled up the pine tree the plate was hanging from and picked out a holding point on a branch for my buddy who was on the rifle. The target was out of the FOV. You would pull the trigger, see the round enter the FOV, and...

    Shot my AAC Micro 7 to 1000 yards today. It's chambered in 300 blackout!

    Next step is to try with subs..... We made it as far as 650 with 220gr SMKs years ago with the Whisper. 25 mils if I recall. With the right light you could watch he round enter the FOV and fall into the target. Accuracy was much better than I expected, and wind was not unmanageable. We were...

    Suppressors Velocity question....

    I tend to see more "can boost" on my shorter barreled guns. My 18" tight bored Bartlein 308 sees a chronographed 50 fps increase with a surefire can, while my GAP 10 with a 20" barrel sees about 25 with the same can. I even get a little boost on my MK18 with the AAC can. My AI 6.5CM 24" sees...

    AR15 Match Upper - Which way to go?

    White Oak or Compass Lake are staples of the HP community. Both builders are good people who support the industry. A build by either will take you to High Master if you can hold hard enough. Love my Compass Lake.

    Why no love for HS Precision?

    They seem to shoot well, but suffered from having a few part limitations which I think turned most people away. Their magazines were a well known weakness in the system for years, with bending feed lips and other problems. The AICS magazine is far superior, so their use of a proprietary, less...

    And he plays a damn good game of beer pong. Just don't ask to see his evening wear.... Dan is a great guy, as were all the Marines and soldiers that came out to RO with him. I had the distinct pleasure of helping with that effort. The "your complaints are invalid" saying was a very intense...

    Suppressors Need input on Surefire and Thunderbeast suppressor for 338LM

    I have 3 TBACs and 2 SF cans. Both Mfgrs make a good product, support their customers, support matches, and post here. I think you will be happy with either. I have direct thread TBACs. They have minimal zero shift on standard contour 24" barrels (0.1-0.2 mils down) and have no detriment on...

    First match and need help with set up

    The TAB biathlon sling is great. I have carried my 16+ pound 7WSM for miles in the mountains of Utah, including up vertical rock faces, using that sling. If you will be carrying most of the things you need on a battle belt or light vest with camelback, then the sling to carry the rifle will work...

    Range Report The Hornady 140 amax ammo. The OLD VS THE NEW

    I did some testing today with the previously mentioned "hot" but good lot 3132922. I bought a large quantity of this cheap right about when this thread was starting, so I was a little nervous about whether it would perform. Lucky me, it did well, but was a little faster as other described...

    Over-thinking barometric pressure...

    DA can be valuable no matter your style of shooting. Like many other things we train for, I may not be useful everytime, or even often, but when you need it, it may be all the difference. Here is an example of why paying attention to DA on the same range can be important: I have seen 2000+...

    UPDATE: Would you shoot in the rain AND 20-30MPH winds @600yds?

    20-30 mph winds aren't all that bad, especially full value. Just don't miss a let off. We've had that during quite a few matches at RiflesOnly. I think the strongest winds I've shoot in were in the mid 40s. Once at RO, the other time in MS during an near miss tropical storm. During the Rifles...
