    Clue me on these new Digital Day/night scopes

    Hey brother your thermal and PVS14 can be used effectively without IR illumination. I have not seen digital yet that can be used in as conditions as Gen 3 or thermal without using an illuminator Hence from the digital I have used you are giving up your position to others with NVDs if you...

    I Spy New Baby Razor G3 4-24

    31oz is nothing since it’s supposed to be tough as can be. Myself I am bitting my nails waiting for these to hit the market. They will fill a need and hopefully bring Gen 3 Vortex quality to the DMR weapons

    I Spy New Baby Razor G3 4-24

    This is like the guys badmouthing the AGM1-10 without seeing one. Their vast knowledge base suggest it can’t work well because it has not been done before. Well the AGM1-10 is a fantastic scope and the one to beat from here on out. I have used one a bunch The new baby Razor I hope follows...

    Muzzle brake or suppressor for 300 WM?

    This is what he said in his original post “This gun is meant to be a mobile sniper-ish role when LARPing with friends. As realistic as I can make it for training and fun.” Since I am old( went to first sniper school in 1984) I took that to mean what the SF guys called Reece back then. So I...

    Muzzle brake or suppressor for 300 WM?

    I will make it simple Using a 20” 300wm for recon type work is like driving finishing nails with a five pound sledge hammer. You can do it but there are better tools Glad your happy with your 18” 300wm

    Muzzle brake or suppressor for 300 WM?

    My 300wn pushes the same bullet as yous over 300 fps faster which is why the longer barrel is where the 300wm belongs in. I bet given the choice between your 2650 and my 3000 fps you would pick mine to make mile hits with in variable winds. I have made hits at a mile with6mm arc but not my...

    Muzzle brake or suppressor for 300 WM?

    Rob sometimes people don’t want help they are just looking for people to affirm their poor decisions To OP A 20” 300WM is a up Close hunting round not a “Sniperish” weapon. The 300WM needs 24” barrel minimum to take advantage of the case size for good burn. It really does best with a 28-30”...

    That Gen 2 1-6 Razor is the only optic I run without red dot for CQB without feeling I could do better with red dot on top It really is an amazing scope. I hope they kerp It forever

    Vortex 1-10

    Guys with small holes at 600 plus yards are far slower to pursue you A hit at great distance has distinct psychological advantages. I prefer standoff advantage CQB is like knife fighting everyone gets hurts So while not the ideal caliber for Longrange a 5.56 still has uses past 600 if weapon...

    Barrel length and velocity extreme spread.

    ES versus barrel length Depends on powder type You run a faster powder and less ES in shorter barrel once is shorter than load requires for complete burn In short if you run N570 in 20” 338 Lapua barrel it will suck You run 748 in a 20” 5.56 barrel it will be good Because of charge size and...

    Vortex 1-10

    I think many misunderstand the reason behind a 1-10. It was designed to perform the 0-600 yard function on a 5.56. Is it the best CQB? No but it’s good. Is it the best 600 yard optic? No but it does damm well. It was designed to make the foot warrior far more capable than the irons, Red...

    Geissele Super Duty or LMT MARS L-5.56 16in

    I have both. My Super Duty 14.5 is my favorite Light super reliable and stupid accurate LMT weighs more and I just have more confidence with it

    Vortex 1-10

    It’s a PIA to build a 1-10 compared to none 1 power scopes. I don’t see a good cheap 1-10 coming out by anyone soon. You can find bad quality 1-10’s from China but they all seem to suck right now The Razor 1-10 is a great scope. If your looking for cheaper try the PST 2-10...

    1 in 12 twist / 155 Scenar stabilize?

    I shot for Lapua for many years in F TR. I have shot many thousands of 155 Scenars through a 308 running between 2800-3100 fps muzzle velocity What I found is the 155 Scenar is same length as a Sierra 175 but it requires more spin to stabilize at long range With a 12 twist I would shoot...

    Sturm Ruger has bought Anderson Manufacturing

    Brother when everything fit together on the early ones I used a bunch of them. When they let QC go and I had to spend extra hours making poorly machined upper and lowers fit together they lost me The funny thing is they were capable of making anything from NASA spec to up armor for military...

    Sturm Ruger has bought Anderson Manufacturing

    This is absolutely correct. They made AR stuff for some top manufacturers before they did their own. They were told to make there guns higher quality and price accordingly. Instead they held bad tolerance and did huge volume. I quit using their stuff years ago

    Hows does LaRue Stealth barrels rank?

    Ok because several here said they had good velocity’s with some LaRue barrels I went out and bought two 18” 6.5 cm AR10 barrels. Built one for me and one for a friend The speed was fantastic. Same load that gave me 2600 in 18” bolt gave me 2600 in the two gas guns. Both shoot easily under a...
