    Just got my first Atlas (V8)...not sure I like it

    Just picked up a V8 and the claw feet. It seems decently well made, but I'm not sold on it yet. The key issue for me seems to be that when you load the bipod the ball mount moves. Yes, I realize you can tighten the ball (big twist knob), but I can't seem to load the bipod sufficiently for my...

    What range to build .338LM load data at?

    Generally, the advise has been to work up loads at a distance greater than 100 yards with the long range .338LM rounds. What distance have you found to be ideal? I.e. if a load shoots good at X yards, it usually shoots good for all distances past that.

    Firing pin hole to large?

    The manufacturer told me this is fine, but I'm not quite sure. The rifle is a DTA SRS. I have the .308 and .338 bolts. I have shot lots of rounds through the .308 and only get primer flow when I push the pressure. This is what I expect. However, on the .338LM I get primer flow every time...

    Fieldcraft Cerakote a scope

    Thinking of cerakoting a scope multicam. Was thinking of putting the base coat on with out the rings, then mounting it, and finally putting the final camo over the scope and rings at once. How does everyone go about coating their scopes/rings?

    .308 Load Data with Mag Primer

    Looking for anyone who has tried the following components in .308Win. 175SMK, Varget, and 215M Yes, I realize that 210Ms are usually used, but my ES have been too large with CCI 200/BR2 and can't find any 210Ms. Thus, I want to try the 215M. I know to reduce the load, but would be grateful for...

    Bedding Scope to Rings?

    Anyone ever hear of bedding a scope into a set of rings? Using something like MarineTex where the rings meet the scope? Never heard of this before. Thoughts?

    LoadBase 3.0 vs Precision Workbench past 1000yrds

    I have and like LoadBase 3.0, but it lacks some tactical features of Precision Workbench. Has anyone compared the accuracy of these two programs past 1000 yards?

    Rifle Scopes DTA SRS: S&B 5-25x56mm or Hensoldt 4-16x56mm FFP

    Yes, another one of these. I was posting in the other SRS thread, but was kind of rude to hijack it so... Calibers: 338LM, 308Win, 243Win 1. How do the clicks compare? I have tried a Premier and thought the clicks were mushy compared to my NF. Haven't tried either of these. 2. The NF seems to...

    Rifle Scopes PLRF-10 vs Zeiss Victory RF 8/10x45T

    I know these are different products, but I was curious if anyone had tested the LRFs against each other. The PLRF-10 claims to have a max range of 2.5km, but some military testing I found showed it was limited to 2km with an albedo of 0.1 (roughly a tree/forest according to wikipedia) on a 2.3m...
