    Taming a .308 gas gun

    So..... my Mega Arms build has come to a close and the load development and break in are in full swing. The weapon system is great, accurate and reliable so far, but the brass and moving parts seem to be getting beaten up. Here is my current setup: MA-Ten with Troy 13.8" rail system .308 20"...

    Ranging spotters and the death of the FLP

    The more I shoot, the more I see the need for a spotter with a ranging reticle (preferably mil-hash/dot). So as I start digging around, I see all the back and forth over the FLP and also see that it died late last year and there are a few left here and there for $500. Well, it looks like the...

    Range Report "Soft" bullets for steel target life

    I know that velocity has a lot to do with impact cratering on steel, but after having a spotter tell me that the 178 AMax basically vaporizes on steel when I was shooting, I started wondering what types of bullets are better for shooting on steel. Just from a physics standpoint, I would assume...

    Rifle Scopes Setting front ring on railed forend - AR platform

    While working on my SPR build, I found that the ARMS 22's are limiting my eye relief. The only way around it is to put a rail cap/riser that runs the length of the receiver and forend (like a MK12-Mod0), place the rear ring on the receiver and front ring on the forend (worried about forend...

    Suppressors Easy off muzzle devices for a threaded suppressor

    So as I am in month 4 of waiting for my 5.56 can and hating that I bought a threaded can instead of a QD can.. just because I want to be able to run it on multiple AR platforms. So I am wondering if there is a flash hider/muzzle device that I could put on my AR's that is easier to remove for...

    Pack/Drag Bag/Shooting Mat..... what to buy?

    So I lost my shooting mat at the last comp I shot at and have been using an old Timberland back pack to carry supplies in and figured it was time to get something new and shiny. I rally like the Eberlestock X3 bag for a pack and carry platform, but I know it doesn't have an integral mat. What...

    Leica LRF cases/covers

    I've seen a few, but can't find any for sale (maybe it's just too old). Looking for the covers that will fit the old brick style Leica LRF's. I know Cabela's had a neoprene one, but of course they no longer have them. Any help is greatly appreciated! (image borrowed)

    Rifle Scopes Is the world of optics set for a change?

    Let me explain my heading.... I am fairly new to the long range world (6 months), but have been shooting off and on for 20 years. Lately I am spending a lot of time reading about glass... reticles, ffp, sfp, mil/mil, moa/moa, power, glass, and on and on. Seems like the past 10 years have been...

    Working up some M118LR equivelent.... what I found

    I know this is a horse that has been beaten within an inch of it's life, but I wanted to pass along my findings and see if anyone out there can shed some light on my lack of velocity... I have chrono'd factory M118LR out of my gun at 2620 avg, so I know the chrono is in the ballpark. Here are...
