    Looking for rifle course somewhere in Europe.

    Hey guys, I've been looking around some for rifle training courses, but while I can find plenty based in the US, I can't seem to find many in Western Europe. Any other Euros know of any companies/organizations that offer them? I'm looking for ones that offer training in long distance shooting...

    FN 30-11, current setup (new scope)

    Hey guys, Just got my Vortex Crossfire 6-24x50 AO with mil-dot reticle in, and just mounted it on my FN (well, mounted it half-assedly as it's dark, and I prefer doing proper mounting in the daylight). Just figured I'd make a pic and show y'all. Not the best scope one can buy, I know, but I'm...

    Range Report FN 30-11 at (weaksauce) 50 meters

    Finally mounted my Redfield Widefield 3-9x40 on my FN 30-11 .308 and went to the local range. Figured I'd show off one of the results, despite the paltry distance of 50 meters (I will be going to the nearby 100 meter outdoor range soon and post those results as well) 5 shots of 147 grain...

    Rifle Scopes Redfield Widefield 3-9x40

    Hey guys, I mentioned to a local friend that I wanted a 'better' though affordable scope then the 4x with German #1 reticle that's currently on my FN 30-11, to hold me over until I can afford a decent period Zeiss/Hensoldt/Kahles/The like, and he's hooking me up with a vintage Redfield...

    Shooting my FN 30-11 (video)

    Hey folks, Just thought I'd show a vid of me shooting my vintage Fabrique Nationale 30-11. I'm the ugly guy with the bad mustache behind the rifle. Just some quick plinking at the 50 meter range, nothing serious. Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-A7eePeqB3c

    Surplus ammo in a tactical rifle

    Hello, Maybe this sort of question has been asked before, but I couldn't find it with search, so I'll just ask it. I'm a beginning rifle shooter who just acquired his first rifle (a vintage FN 30-11 I managed to get cheap. I've made an old post about it). So far I've been shooting 147 grain...

    Rifle Scopes Decent scope under the 1000 Euro ($1300) range

    Hey guys, I'm getting into rifle shooting (paper target) over here in the Netherlands, and I'm looking for a good scope to switch out with the 4x28 Hensholdt currently on my FN 30-11 .308 rifle. Nothing wrong with the 4x, but I plan to get out to 600+ meters eventually, as well as needing a...

    Looking for someone who's fired a FN 30-11

    Hi folks, As detailed in an older post of mine, I recently bought myself a FN 30-11 .308 sniper rifle. Problem is, I still have a 5 month waiting time until I get my license and can actually fire it, and since I can't really find anything about its performance online, I'm looking for people on...

    My new FN 30-11 Belgian sniper rifle(Pic heavy)

    Hey guys, new member here... Here's the rifle I bought this week. An original .308 FN 30-11 sniper rifle, built around FN's Mauser action, and featuring a 4x28 Hensoldt built scope and FN MAG bipod. It was produced from 1976 to 1986, and is still in service today with select military & police...
