    Customer Service of S&B vs Kahles vs Steiner

    I've warrantied a couple Leupold items in the past year. Pretty simple. Fill out the form on their website, get an RMA, wait 3-5 weeks, receive repaired item back cleaner than new. No questions asked. Technically their warranty is lifetime on mechanical items and 2 years on electronic items...

    Run N Gun rifle - Plan B/Rearden vs Area 419 Hellfire

    @hlee i think you're missing the fact that to "Just torque the brake to 30 ft-lbs and twist on suppressor hand tight" you still need a vice, a reaction rod, a torque wrench, a crows foot, shims, etc. With a Hellfire, you need.... your fingers. That's it. I appreciate your contribution but a...

    Run N Gun rifle - Plan B/Rearden vs Area 419 Hellfire

    I'm not sure I follow. With a 1/2x28 adapter in my can, I would need to remove the brake installed on the barrel whenever I wanted to mount the can. Then I would need to re-shim, re-torque, and re-rocksett the brake as soon as I take the can off. Unless I'm missing something?

    Run N Gun rifle - Plan B/Rearden vs Area 419 Hellfire

    BLUF: Does anyone run Hellfires on lightweight gas guns? I see them all the time on heavy bolt guns. I'm trying to figure out if my use case is appropriate. I've just picked up my first suppressor (B&T Print-XH) and so I need to switch my muzzle devices over to something compatible and have to...

    Pouring a 30"×40" concrete pad on top of concrete floor?

    This guy concretes. You probably have a bunch of bow kills too.

    Pouring a 30"×40" concrete pad on top of concrete floor?

    @Aftermath I thought about the moisture issue and just framing out a base, that but I want this safe secured. I'm not concerned about anyone dragging this safe back up the stairs, but an unsecured safe can be tipped over and pushed onto its back in 60 seconds and then it's very vulnerable to a...

    Pouring a 30"×40" concrete pad on top of concrete floor?

    @sirhrmechanic I want to pour a raised pad for protection from water. Not because the existing slab needs reinforcement. Just in case I ever have a burst pipe or something stupid. Additionally, my insurance specifically requires any items stored in the basement that I wish to be covered under...

    Pouring a 30"×40" concrete pad on top of concrete floor?

    Luckily my basement is very dry. Averages around 45% RH in the summer, around 35% RH in the winter. I keep one of the rechargeable EvaDry units in my safe and in the 18+ months I've been in this house, I've never had to recharge it once. Its not showing any absorbed moisture whatsoever. Back...

    Pouring a 30"×40" concrete pad on top of concrete floor?

    Thanks, these are really helpful. I'm estimating around 1.75-2PSI (it's a very heavy custom safe). But since all the mixes I look at are 3000-6000 PSI rated, I'm sure it will be fine (assuming proper mix and pour). I'll rent a magnesium float. What's a sidewinder? Google wasn't helpful. I...

    Pouring a 30"×40" concrete pad on top of concrete floor?

    Let me preface this - I dont know shit about concrete. The most I've ever done is mix up some quickcrete in a bucket and poured it into a hole in the ground to repair a fence post. I would like to pour a 30"×40" pad, 6" tall, in my basement utility room to elevate a gun safe to protect it from...

    Accuracy International AT-X

    Nonsense. There is an explicit set of standards for MLOK. The wiki page has a pretty good overview but you can get the entire standard from Magpul. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M-LOK Whether certain manufacturers adhere to those standards is a different story. Ironically, to my knowledge, AI...

    How do you note your rifles current zero setting when storing a rifle?

    Nah. Stop using "zeroing" as your verb. Thats why everyone is having fun in this thread. Zeroing is the wrong word. You zero your rifle once, then you're done zeroing (until you change your ammo, etc). After that, you're DIALING. If you want to keep your scope dialed with your 600 yard drop...

    How do you note your rifles current zero setting when storing a rifle?

    You're the only one who does that for a reason. It's not a thing. Your zero is your zero. That doesn't change. Most people zero precision rifles at 100 yards. Once you are zeroed, then you reset your scope's Zero Stop so you can always dial back to 0.0. Elevation dialed in for a particular...

    American made medium power optic (3-18+)

    Not too many options. Leupold MK5 3.6-18 are designed, machined, and assembled in the USA. They import some parts and raw materials from overseas. Vortex AMG 6-24 is 99.9% made in the USA. Only thing foreign is the reticle which is sourced from Germany.

    Best Ballistics App 2025

    Strelok Pro is still absolutely available on Android devices. You have to buy it through the Huawei App Store and use a VPN with your location set to Canada. So its a couple extra steps but overall still simple. That's also the only version that is getting updates right now. But it still has the...

    Geissele MRGG-S adopted by USSOCOM in 6.5 CM.

    No one is debating this. A 6.5 CM will always outperform a 6mm ARC. But is the increased performance worth the significant penalty in weight and bulk of the rifle, magazine, ammo, spare parts? And the increased recoil? For a DMR it probably makes sense to have a larger frame gasser slinging...
