    77smk loads

    24.0 gr Varget under a 75-77 gr bullet is a very common .223 Rem load that will shoot well out of most guns. It can be a good go-to load if you don't want to take the time to do load development. Personally, I use 24.4 gr of Varget under a 77 gr Nosler BTHP and get very good accuracy, better...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper HS 5-15x44 Mil-Dot

    Re: Vortex Viper HS 5-15x44 Mil-Dot How thick is the reticle on this scope? I am considering getting one but I am concerned about reticle thickness. I used to own another of the Midway exclusive mil/mil scopes - the 3-10x40 Weaver Tactical Grand Slam - but I got rid of it in part because I...

    Rifle Scopes Weaver Grand Slam 3-10X Tactical Video

    Re: Weaver Glam Slam 3-10X Tactical Video Thanks for the review. I was going to get a 2.5-10 Vortex Viper PST for my SPR, but I'm thinking about getting one of these instead because it would fit my budget better (plus, who knows how long it will be until PST's are widely available).

    Re: Ca. legal .308 10 round P-Mag It's a very unfortunate necessity of living in California, but it looks good nonetheless.

    Check out my new Target AR15!!!

    Re: Check out my new Target AR15!!! That's a sharp looking rifle. How do you like that YHM forearm? I'm considering getting one myself for an SPR that I plan on piecing together in the next few months. Was it easy to install?

    ugliest 338 ever?

    Re: ugliest 338 ever? You know, if you shot it a few times without a muzzle break that would be a pretty impressive thing to add to your man card

    Rifle Scopes can you see a bullet hole with your scope

    Re: can you see a bullet hole with your scope With my Gen4 Wotac, I can see .30 cal bullet holes at 200 yards. But I have not yet shot past 200 yards with it so I might be able to see holes even further away than that.

    Photos a nice day for shooting

    Re: a nice day for shooting Those of us in California definitely know what rain is. It's that rumored frozen variant that we have no concept of (I think it's called "snoo" or something like that).

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Crossfire 4-16x50 AO ??????

    Re: Vortex Crossfire 4-16x50 AO ?????? I have a 4-12x40 Crossfire that I like. I find the eye relief to be a little short (could use about another .5" or so), but for $140, I think it's a good scope. Having said that, I'm still going to replace it with a Wotac when funds allow.

    Rifle Scopes Do you think we'll ever see self-adjusting scopes?

    I came up with this idea today while contemplating scopes with build in range finders. Imagine a scope with a build in computer and laser range finder. The range finder finds the range and then passes that info on to the onboard computer, which has it's own ballistics table and then adjusts the...
