    Short barrel 308 Win & Berger 185 Juggernaut?

    I'm about to have an 18.5", 1:10 rifle built and I'm wondering if 2600 fps would be obtainable loaded out to 2.95", eventually running a TBAC 30P-1.

    Rifle Scopes Bubble level too close for comfort.. Need advice

    While I was mounting up a new scope I ran into a problem with a question. I'm using IOR 35mm low rings on a Badger 20 moa base and my bubble level I feel is too close to the scope. Maybe 1mm or two. Will this be a problem? Here's a crappy iphone picture to show what I'm talking about.

    Running a 1-4/1-6 on an angled mount?

    First off, I feel that this post is more appropriate here than over in the optics section since it's related to the semi-auto world.

    Rifle Scopes Aimpoint Comp M4 quick question

    I just picked up a Comp M4 and the first thing I noticed was that the front lens is canted. Is this normal? My guess would be that it's designed that way as to not reflect light straight back to the bad guy? Just wanted to make sure I didn't get a bad one.

    Spike's ST Battle Trigger

    Let me hear the good, the bad, and the ugly about this trigger. I'm looking for a good, reliable, single stage trigger and this seems to fit the bill. Right now it's between this, Accuracy Speaks, and Wilson Combat TTU and TTU-3 Gun. What say you all?
