    Night Vision DNT Hydra HS635

    In the 4MR vid at one point he has it in front of a 6-36 G3 Razor but doesn't ever really mention use with a larger mag scope.

    Night Vision DNT Hydra HS635

    I haven't seen anywhere what max usable mag is on the day optic (when used as a clip-on)?

    Is N150 a throat torcher??

    I haven't run N150 for 6.5 but have been running it in my current .223 barrel (26" HH with a .223 chamber). Was running 24.7gr with 75gr BTHPs seated at AR mag length (for commonality with my gas guns) in shitty FC brass for a few k rounds, gave me 2950ish. Recently stepped down to 23.9 because...

    Short Barrel Ranch Rifle Cartridge Choice

    My favourite rifle these days is my 18" 6.5 creed. Chassis has a folding stock so nice and compact I mostly shoot handloads in it but my 140gr ELDM load is pretty much the same as the factory 140gr ELDM ammo I've run in it, goes about 2600fps. For your application with probably less time to...

    Suppressor with a brake on it, does it help or not?

    I'm pretty sure he understands the graph, given that his company did the research and published it... also, I've heard you get more recoil reduction if you use a crush washer ;)

    Alternative choice to push-button sling loops on bolt guns?

    Couldn't you just design in an mlok slot up front (most chassis already have em) and one on either side of the rear of the stock so that guys could just put m-lok hooks to run HK clips or para-clips? I've run around plenty with a heavy rifle on my back with slings held on by qd sockets and never...

    Best offset mount and red dot combo for AR?

    For rifles that have diving boards (cause I might run my WMLRF on them) I run Arisaka offsets with an Aimpoint Acro. If the rifle isn't setup for a WMLRF then I run an Acro at 12:00 since it's easier to get behind under nods. As a few others have said, having an enclosed red dot is nice if/when...

    Vortex 2-10 PST vs 1-10 Razor

    I went over the same exercise as you, trying to figure out what was better on. 20" SPR-ish 5.56. Having both scopes, I tried them both (with an offset Acro with the PST G2 2-10) and although I settled on the 2-10, I actually decided to eventually get another LHT 4.5-22 to replace it. In my...

    Zero distance applicability

    I shoot red dots on carbines from 0-200 regularly, sometimes 300 (all 12" targets) although more often than not I'll have a 6x magnifier on if I'm shooting to 300. With an Eotech EXPS 3-2 (so double dot reticle) I routinely shoot out to 500 using a 6x magnifier.

    7PRC vs 7PRCW

    Am I wrong in thinking a 7-6.5PRC would be essentially the same as a 7SAUM?

    How good are Custom Rifle Barrels?

    I've yet to try them but I've had plenty of Hawk Hills and they were always hammers

    Rifle Scopes Dilemma - WMLRF on older scope vs new Scope & and HHLRF

    Figure out what your primary use case is and go from there. A WMLRF is useless for PRS but great for certain kinds of field matches (albeit as an ancillary, not primary, means of ranging). If it were me, I'd upgrade your rifle optic first, even the HDMR2 was a big step up from the HDMR, both...

    11 shots for 1.2 MOA at 600 yards with my M14

    Great shooting! What're the specs on the first M14 in your post (vintage sniper)?

    Dmr/ precision ar type trigger

    Personal preference and all but I like Geissele SSA-Es on gas guns and TT 2-stage Specials on bolt guns.

    Angle shooting

    The best thing you can do if you don't want to "rely on gizmos" is to use a solver to pre-make hard dope cards and just add columns for angle (ie 15, 30, 45 degrees). Then you just need a means of measuring LOS range (lrf) and angle to target in the field (best analog means is probably an ACI...

    Show me your open heavy Nrl setups.

    Here's my "frankengun" I put together for the Arizona NRL Hunter pro-Am match in Jan and ended up shooting again this past weekend at the Cranbrook, BC NRL Hunter match cause my dumb ass forgot to send my actual hunter gun off for a new barrel... durr Squeaks in at just 16lbs: Defiance Deviant...

    Magpul - 2025 New Maztech X4-FCS & X4-LRF

    That's awesome. When the 34mm version comes out, this system will be the tits with my Razor 1-10. The version for higher mag optics should also be rad. This seems like it gives you all the functionality of the XM-157 (but we can get it) but with the optic of your choice. How does the HUD affect...

    Magpul - 2025 New Maztech X4-FCS & X4-LRF

    Being that you thought the aiming chevron was a bit big for use with smaller targets, can you run the FCS+LRF and just turn off the illuminated aiming point? That way you'd still have your elevation hold show up in the HUD but you'd just use your optic's reticle to hold over (like with any other...

    Reloading for shorter barrels?

    My go to load for any 6.5 is a 140 ELDM with 42.0 gr H4350 in a Hornady case and that load has shot 1/2 moa in 5 different barrels going from 18" to 26" (one of them a gasser). It's 2800+ in the 26" pipe and 2620 in the 18". I've since run out of H4350 but have lots of N160, N150 and N555. I...
