    Thermion XM30 Thermal Riflescope

    Good feedback. I’ve never used a thermal before so had no idea what to expect. I’ve been waiting for technology to improve the specs while bringing the price down under $3k. Sounds like I need to keep waiting.

    Thermion XM30 Thermal Riflescope

    This scope would be for hunting out to 600 yards.

    Thermion XM30 Thermal Riflescope

    OK, jw, thanks. I guess no one has any experience with it yet.

    Bueller? Bueller? 49 views and no one has an opinion?

    Thermion XM30 Thermal Riflescope

    Where did the NV channel go? Or was it never here (i.e some other site)? Anyway, any user feedback on the Thermion XM30 scope? Good choice for a sub $3K budget?

    Accessories FS: 2 Unused Scope Covers

    OK, Tactical Taylor spoken for. Now the rear bag becomes a separate sales option at $15 delivered in USA.

    Accessories FS: 2 Unused Scope Covers

    I have 2 brand new scope covers to sell: 1. Tactical Tailor scope cover for scopes up to 19 inches long (or so, there is a bit of adjustability in the end loops). Multicam -- $55 delivered in USA 2. Other well-made scope cover I can't remember who made it, but it is nice. Also handles scopes...

    Suppressors Suppressor Recommendation for Hunting

    Another vote for the TBAC from direct experience. There is more to it than DB ratings and weight. Those statistics should be pretty close for most makes. Much better information is recoil reduction, recoil "shape" (direction /pattern of recoil and distance / direction moved off target) and...

    Rifle Scopes Precision Tactical Scopes?

    I received an email from a company selling "Precision Tactical" scopes. Never heard of that brand before. Does anyone have first-hand experience with one of them? Would it make a good airgun or rimfire scope?

    Best flashlight

    Another +1 for Fenix. Been carrying one daily for many years with no problems. The only thing I wish SOME maker would do is put in a small LED or indicator when the battery gets low.

    Cutting foam in a pelican case

    ^this. Also, don’t store any gun long term in foam.

    Redding Competition Seating die -- can I use same die for 260 Remington and 6.5CM?

    Does a Redding comp seater actually touch any part of the case, rather than just the bullet?

    Redding Competition Seating die -- can I use same die for 260 Remington and 6.5CM?

    I know I need a separate 6.5CM sizing die (leaning towards the Redding type S full body sizer), but can I get away with using the same Redding Competition Bullet Seater die I already have for 260 Remington? Seems like it should work as the bullets would be the same. Also, do you think the neck...

    In ear electronic plugs

    The Etymotic Gun Sport in-ear electronics were a game-changer for me. So comfortable I forget they are in, can carry on normal conversations but shoot 6.5 with large brake and barely notice any sound. I am much more focused on bullet impact now. The rechargable version promises to remove the...

    Gunsmithing Tuning gas on an AR10

    This process worked well for me on 2 rifles (one AR10 , one AR15) but I'm having trouble on a third (another AR15). The bolt will not lock back even with gas adjusted to maximum (and even with the gas block adjustment screw completely removed). I've rechecked the gas hole alignment in the barrel...

    Gunsmithing Tuning gas on an AR10

    I'm wondering if there is any scientific (or failing that, ad hoc) guidance on turning the gas system of an AR10 (or AR15). The one I'm working on is a 6.5CM, but in general there is an interaction between the mass of the bolt and carrier, the buffer mass, and the amount of gas allowed back to...

    Gunsmithing Muzzle break shoulder contact

    Not sure if the barrel tapping trick will work for me -- sounds like that is useful when you are just SHY of proper timing and the vibrations allow you to tighten a hair more. My situation is the opposite -- I am just PAST proper timing. I've got the shim material now so can go that route. I...

    Gunsmithing Muzzle break shoulder contact

    It is a custom rifle, .260 Remington, the brake is an AAC 51T type. So, yes, a suppressor will be mounted on it at some point.

    Washington state monthly matches at Upper Nisqually Sportsman's Club

    Am I reading the Oct 4th match description correctly in that about 60 rifle rounds and zero pistol rounds are needed for the course of fire?

    Gunsmithing Muzzle break shoulder contact

    What is the opinion on tightening muzzle breaks -- I have one that just rotates 3 degrees past dead top center) on the timing. Can I back this off (so it is just barely touching the barrel shoulder) and glue it in with Blue Loctite? Or do I need to shim it for a tight fit, or (gasp!) recut the...
