Question: Pros & cons of having a 243 AR built? Primary use: hog hunting max range 400m. I do not reload. Off the shelf Hornady Black is my go to. I have 2 small frame AR platforms a 5.56 & a 6.5 G. Future ammo availability is a concern, no wildcats. Trying to keep it light & short. Feedback...

This guy has been coming in closer & closer. Last weekend while sleeping on top of my jeep he came within 10m. A experience I will never forget. I had no idea they could move so silently. To be honest, not sure I could pull the trigger. Yogi just looking for that picnic basket.

Location: GA swamp Time: 02:15 Local Temp: 68 F Humidity: 80 % Wind: Negligible Moon Phase: 6% Waning Crescent WX: Storm Eta _____________________________ 4 miles into the swamp flying solo. Remote is an understatement. While sleeping topside on the jeep in the ready prone position the following...

I will do my best to explain my question. Not sure if a short answer is possible. 1. I have 5 FFP optics & they are my preference (all mil). 2. I have one SFP optic that I can not part with a Swarovski Z6 2.5 x 15 x 44. Her primary mission, gathering light for hunting application...

Well if Murphy is around the next corner he showed up at the worst possible time. 12 hours into a 72 hour hunt my PVS-30 decided to give it up. I purchased a refurbished unit from NVD out of Allentown PA. in Dec of 2017. This device has spoiled me, it made me a believer that the only way to...

So after a two month wait the results are in. My 6.5 Grendel made its way back out to the range with her primary day optic a Vortex AMG 6 X 24. My reason for sending the rifle back to Larue was because of jamming issues. I created the problem by removing the brake and attaching a direct thread...

First time post in this forum: My professional level of training to date is somewhere between zero an a mouth breather. I'm probably setting my self up for a good thrashing but here goes. So my build is complete and its off to the range I go. I'm 32 feet above sea level in Waycross GA (the...

Vendors,:Thank You in advance for honoring Memorial Day. Anxiously awaiting to see what you have to offer. TT & Kahles feel free to set the example and show them how its done. Lead by example, sanding by.

So today I'm at the 300 range having a little casual conversation with a guy a little older than me. And he offers, would I like to send a few rounds down range with his 500 dollar bolt action rifle and a 90 dollar 25x fixed power scope. I say sure and ask him what kind of rifle is it? He tells...

Is this reticle a good match if used with a PVS-30 on a 6.5 cm bolt action?

Fitness at this stage of your life should be second nature. You either have kept up on your physical fitness maintenance and proper diet or not. Food is fuel for the engine (quality intake) equals (quality out put). After 55 the machine needs tuning not chasing the 2 & 3 times body weight lifts...

I have read several pros and cons of a FFP & SFP here on the hide based on the shooters application and it usually boils down to the individuals personal preference. Not going to get into which brand, what power or what reticle. Hunting application max range 400 m. 1st or 2nd focal plane?

Probably a stupid question but here goes. For as long as I can remember when it came time for me mount an optic on a rifle I have used the following basic steps. Place 3 foot x 3 foot paper target at 25 yards. From a stable shooting position, take your time and send your round down range...

The short version of why I decided on the 624i. Primary use: Hunting. Secondary use: Targets. I deliberated long and hard on this purchase. Dropping almost 3 k for a rifle scope is serious business. Up until last night I had yet to see an optic gather light better than my Swarovski Z6. Here...

I thought I had a grasp on the understanding of the difference between a SA & LA. Just for the sake of keeping it simple, lets say I want to have another bolt gun built in 7.62. When I look at Surgeon actions, why do they make both a short and long in 308? I may be way off the mark but does it...
