    Night Vision FS: N-Vision Halo-XRF

    Halo-XRF for sale. Bought new on February 7, 2022 from Strictly Offensive Kit. Messed with it for about 15 minutes looking at various animals around the house. Learned that I can't use it on a rifle in Cali and I'm not really close to another state where I can use this. Never mounted or used...

    Rifle Scopes Kestrel experts - help me with S&B 5-45x56 0.5CM .05MIL

    That's a good question. I haven't gotten an opportunity to test it yet. Will try it this weekend and see where it ends up. I guess to save ammo, does the drop clicks above seem about "normal" or is it significantly different? I don't want to overshoot the berm so much I get asked to leave...

    Rifle Scopes Kestrel experts - help me with S&B 5-45x56 0.5CM .05MIL

    I just bought a S&B 5-45x56 with 0.5CM elevation and windage. Also, bought a Kestrel 5700x and set up my rifle profile. For the EUnits and WUnits, I have multiple options, including CM or Mil. What I am hoping to get is the Kestrel to tell me how many clicks to adjust in relationship to my...

    .308 win. recoil

    Re: .308 win. recoil For most .308's, a 12 GA kicks quite a bit harder in my opinion. I've shot some light weight 22" barreled .308's that had me scared to pull the trigger after about 10 rounds. If you're very worried about it, have a break added and it'll shoot like a .22.

    Re: Chicago 80y-old Vet vs 30 yr old armed, home invas If this isn't good enough for the Supreme Court to throw away the Chicago gun ban, nothing will be.

    Beretta Customer Service - Beyond A+

    Re: Beretta Customer Service - Beyond A+ I've always had excellent communication with Beretta. I own a 9mm Beretta now and plan to buy the silver one soon. Not only is their service good, but their weapons are top notch.

    Movie Theater Anyone seen 2012 yet?

    Re: Anyone seen 2012 yet? There was this one part in the movie that really was awesome. At the very end, the screen goes black and all the credits start rolling. That part of the movie had my full attention. I'd rather watch the world blow up instead of watching the movie again.

    .375 LM - 350 Gn. Seeking knowledge

    Re: .375 LM - 350 Gn. Seeking knowledge I'm thinking he means a Cheytac considering (1), they are 350gn., (2), Jamison sells them, and (3), I'm not aware of a 375 LM.

    Strange delayed firing issue

    Re: Strange delayed firing issue These were handloads. I agree with everyone here that it is probably ammo. I researched the hang fire problem WILongRange mentioned and the symptoms described is what happened. I sent my friend an e-mail about this and I'm sure his bolt will be cleaned...

    Strange delayed firing issue

    Re: Strange delayed firing issue Diablo: Not sure on that. The gun owner is meticulous about his rifles, so I'm sure it's been done, but not sure how long. WILongRange: Thanks. I hadn't ever heard of that. I'll research that a little bit and probably chalk this issue up to that. Thanks...

    Strange delayed firing issue

    Re: Strange delayed firing issue I think it was ammo as well. It just seems weird that the first two were delayed but all of the others fired fine. I'm not real sure the last time the bolt was removed for cleaning. It's possible that it was after the last time it was shot, which would...

    Strange delayed firing issue

    Last weekend, I was at a range where a friend had a 220 swift that he hadn't fired in a year. The gun was clean and the ammo was about a year old. I chambered the first round, pulled the trigger, and nothing. I heard the pin hit, but nothing fired. It was a new gun (to me) so I thought maybe...

    So now it's 100 posts to sell? Sigh

    Re: So now it's 100 posts to sell? Sigh I was also just hit by the 100 post rule (it was 50 last time I posted something for sale). I don't really mind the 100 post rule, but if the purpose it to stop scammers, I think there is a better way. I've seen reference points, etc. given when...
