    Rifle Scopes Scope question

    I have been out of the loop for a while. Currently I have a Bushnell Elite 6500 2.5-16x on my rifle and I'm looking to get something a little lighter and lower powered for hunting with.

    Does anyone know of a good reloading app for the IPOD/IPOD touch? I know there are good ballistics calculators out there but I was looking for something that would give estimated muzzle velocities and pressures for different load amounts etc. Anyone know of any?

    long 223

    I have posted this question on a couple of other forums, but I haven't gotten any answers. I'm looking to load either a 70 grain hornady A-max or the 70 gr barnes TSX. I can seat the A-max deep enough to fit in the magazine but there is a tiny gap between the ogive area of the bullet and the...

    Rifle Scopes Is it possible

    I'm interested in getting a scope for my AR so I can hunt with it. The problem is that I also have the AR by my bed for home defense when I'm not hunting. Is it possible with the T-marks on the flat top to be able to remove and replace the scope and it stay accurate?

    I'm looking in to getting a variable power "tactical" type scope. I'm pretty sure I've narrowed it down to either of these two. The Millett DMS1 (which I have found a lot of people saying good things about) Or the Truglo TG8531BXB...

    Gunsmithing My new paint job

    Well, after some suggestions on this forum about painting your rifle with Krylon paint and some home made stencils, I got up the nerve and did it.

    Rifle Scopes US optics or similar...

    I'm looking for something like the US Optics I believe SN 4s or something like that. Counter Sniper has one that is 1-4x and I got to hold one at the gun show and it looked pretty cool. I'm trying to keep it under 500 dollars. I know you get what you pay for, I'm just looking for suggestions.
