    Compromised Prone

    Having studied what constitutes good prone technique, I have came to the conclusion it depends quite heavily on one's physical attributes. It seems the ideal physical attributes for perfect prone technique include (1) not being overweight (especially in the mid section) and (2) not having any...

    RFI: Atlas BT35-LW17 5-H

    Though I have no aspirations to compete, I do very much enjoy my informal range sessions of getting on the ground behind my rifle and shooting for group size without any time constraints. For me, it's all about relaxation! Which leads me to my question: as you can in the photo below, I'm using...

    Rifle Scopes SWFA 10X42 HD Parallax Cat Tail

    For the $$ invested, I have been quite pleased with the SWFA 10X42 HD scope with its durable, high quality construction and quite-decent glass. I figure I would have to spend two to three times more on a variable-power scope to retain the build quality and robustness, and gain some worthy...

    DIY Cheek Riser

    In desperate need of some support for my dense head when shooting prone, and not entirely thrilled at the usual options to gain some comb height (stock packs, stock modification with loggerhead hardware, etc.) I decided that I would attempt to make a riser out of kydex that would not require any...

    Rifle Scopes Scope base recoil lug?

    I'm currently using a Leupold 20 MOA steel base on my Rem 700 in .308. Since the rifle is now apart I'm contemplating changing the base to something that has the integral recoil lug. The base was bedded to the receiver with no release agent so it was pretty solid. The receiver is now being...

    M5 BM - Badger vs. PTG

    I'm having a McMillan A5 inletted for the M5 DBM bottom metal. I very much like the Badger M5 Enhanced bottom metal but at nearly 1/3 the price, the PTG set up is very tempting. Can anyone shed any light on the quality difference between the two? TIA for any insight!

    Rifle Scopes RDS Mounted to Scope

    Looking for any first-hand feedback from those who have used a RDS (such as a T1 or T2) attached directly to the scope. Background Like most others I lust for a high end, top tier variable scope but as always, I first determine my needs and then research it to death. My current scope - a SWFA...

    Installing QR Tripod Plate on the Hunter 700

    What follows is an easy and secure way to install a quick-release plate on the Magpul Hunter 700 stock for direct connection to a ball head. In my case I am using an Arca-style plate, the same that I use on my camera gear and what my ball head clamps accept. This attachment method should work...

    Another Budget Build

    It's been way too long since I've been in the bolt-gun game and I've always wanted this rifle. After making some room in the safe I've got a Remington 700 in there once again, a SPS-Tac in .308. Build Specs Remington 700 SPS Tactical in .308, 1/12 twist Bell & Carlson Medalist 2958 Stock...

    Rifle Scopes 4-screw/6-screw Ring Set

    Hello to all, my first post on this forum. I did a quick search and was unable to find an answer to my question. I am preparing to mount a SWFA SS HD 10x42 using a set of Seekins 4/6 Cap Combo rings and a Leupold Mark 4 steel base (which I am bedding to to the receiver). Is the 6-screw ring...
