    Rifle Scopes US Optics reticle

    I have owned both and shot them a lot. The horus seems cluttered to those that don't have a lot of trigger time behind it. By a lot I mean more than a couple of range sessions. I personally like the H-reticles more than the Gen II XR because if you are holding and not dialing, I found myself...

    Remington XM2010

    Charles, is it a true m24 action that was barreled as a 300 winmag or just a standard 300 winmag that you through in the chassis? I'm just trying to trouble shoot for you. Also, make sure all the rails are torqued to spec. When seating the action I always recommend making sure the recoil lug...

    Waiting on 2014 AX chassis?

    For the record. I've had a Timney Calvin Elite and Huber. Both fit perfectly in it. The action is a surgeon. The bolt knob is a modified APA attachment with a Round knob. I have no closing issues what so ever. It is not pale brown it is Krylon khaki. I don't treat my rifles like garbage but I do...

    Waiting on 2014 AX chassis?

    I can honestly tell you from personal experience that AI has improved the ax chassis that it really is a whole different beast. Yes it looks very similar with the tube but even the tube attachment point is different. It now only has 2 bolts and uses a v block to attach it to the main body. The...

    Feeding reliability with various actions

    I'm not saying misfeeds don't happen but..... I've seen new shooters trying to cycle a bolt faster than their skill set or just new to bolt rifles thus "short stroking" the bolt. But misfeeds do happen, especially with external mag fed bolts. That's why AICS mags are so popular, reliability.

    Range Report Applied Ballistics Kestrel; Pro staff support thread

    Make sure you have blue tooth enabled on the kestrel and your tablet, check to see what com port your blue tooth is set on. Sometimes I have problems syncing all my profiles but I find that if I keep my kestrel on medium power and about 3-5' away helps.
