    D-760 Vrs newer thermal scopes or clip ons

    Gents, I do some night shooting now and then and have a nice but older D-760 6x night scope. I'm looking at the clip on thermal scopes such as the Pulsar FXG50 and AGM various types. Can anyone give me some insight into what these newer thermals can do better than my D-760? I realize...

    Looking at Woox Furiosa for Tikka t3x.

    I'm trying to contact Woox but over the last few months have had no luck. I thought perhaps someone here may know the answer to my concerns. I'm looking at the Furiosa for my tikka t3x. The gun has a custom fluted barrel .850". Also what mag would I use? The same tikka stock mags, or is...

    AXMC in 6.5x55

    A little fact finding: I took my .308 and 300 WM AXMC magazines out today and did a bit measuring with the caliper. The best I can figure is that the 300 Mag at the rear portion of the lips is .7005 ". The .308 in the same location is .6255, or a difference of .075". I was able to slightly...

    AXMC in 6.5x55

    Not a bad idea, but I'd like to shoot the same reloads in my M96 and the AI AXMC. I'll take a look at see what the longest length would be in the 308 mag. Interesting option, thanks.

    AXMC in 6.5x55

    It's a great round. I've got an M96, 1919 that shoots 1.2 MOA with open military sights. I think in the AXMC it would be a very capable and easy caliber to shoot well. However, there are pitfalls to the project. I'd hate to get the barrel, have feeding issues and have to buy another bolt to...

    AXMC in 6.5x55

    I know at least one other has discussed this, but has anyone mounted a 6.5x55 Swede barrel on an AXMC? I've got an itch to do this. In my research this far it seems the. 308 bolt will work ( after a call to Mile high shooting they indicated that it should). The long action 300 WM mag would be...

    using old style powder drops for field loading

    True regarding the 38.0 G load. I was well low due to the fact that I didn't trust the powder measure, and I didn't want an inadvertent overload. I've now used it enough to gain more trust in that it's actually providing correct measurements. I've also got a Harrell's and an older Belding and...

    using old style powder drops for field loading

    Fellow shooters, I've recently decided to try my hand at reloading at the range. I have ( among other types) , an old Neil Jones powder measure. I've practiced with it making various drops, and found it really works quite well. My at home test showed within 10-20 drops and using a...

    Range finders linked to Kestrel 5700

    The search ended last night. After calling Leica even they told me the 2800 has issues connecting to the Kestrel, or better stated staying connected past 6 feet away. They said it may even have issues if I kept the Kestrel in my back pack as the signal has to pass through your body. I'm glad...

    With the 2800 can you use it for ballistic data past 800 yards when connected to the Kestrel?

    Range finders linked to Kestrel 5700

    I know this topic has been beat to death, but I cannot seem to verify a detail regarding the Leica CRF 2800.com. I've read that the unit will not provide ballistic date past 800 yards. However, it seems to also indicate that the unit will provide ballistic data out as far as it can range...

    Night Vision Night optics d-760

    thanks for the info gents. The manf is no longer around and can't get any info on it. I have located other night vision suppliers that can repair it if needed ( for a high price). It dies indicate gen3 on the scope. For those that have used this scope what would bd the max range on a dark night.

    Night Vision Night optics d-760

    looking at an older night optics D-760 gen 3. Not sure of the age. Asking $1500. Worth it? Seems to work fine. However I don't see any change in view when I turn the top control for " focus" Also what is the term " film" for when talking about night scopes? The write up indicates large...

    Has no one shot a 6.5 prc from an AI AXMC?

    Right, I can appreciate you don't single load, was curious if the mag was ok with 10 ends of 6.5 prc. Same mags I've got, looks like it will work out. Barrel is on the ups truck. Thanks ?
