    Spartan Precision Semi-Auto .308

    I had the chance to test out a 20" Spartan Precision semi-auto .308 this week. The 20" Krieger 11.25, adjustable gas block, SureFire muzzle break and Geissele trigger made this a very easy rifle to shoot well. I put on the glass, walked it back from 25 to 100, tuned the gas block then shot...

    Rifle Scopes NXS 2.5-10x 24mm Mil-R, great scope!

    I saw the Nightforce Mil-R reticle in a few scopes at SHOT '14 and was very impressed with the design. I typically dial for elevation and hold for wind and the breaks in the horizontal stadia line make fine tuning a hold very easy. Anyway, I sent in my scope to have the reticle changed and...

    Leupold Mk4 spotting scope Pros/Cons?

    I had the chance to use a Leupold Mk4 12-40x 60mm with a TMR at one station at an LE sniper school a year or so ago. A few weeks ago I was spotting for another shooter and they had a the same scope with a Mildot reticle. I was impressed its light weight, compact size and of course the reticle...

    AICS under-rail with flush cup mount?

    I purchased a Champions Choice flush cup rail hand-stop to use with an AICS. However, I keep pulling it out under sling tension. Does anyone make a rail section with the built in flush cup mount for under the AICS? Looking at the Atlas bipod page I see that there are several rails with flush...

    Spartan Rifles 6.5 Creedmoor

    I have been shooting some of the long range precision rifle matches for about a year now. I originally thought they would simply be a way to add some trigger time other than what I get at work. I brought out my 20" .308 and did well inside of 600 but always had my butt kicked from there out to...

    Gunsmithing APA binding in a Badger M5 inlet

    I thought that the APA and Badger M5 shared the same "footprint". I have discovered that "footprint" and inlet are different. When I put the APA in the stock that was bedded for the Badger M5 it binds the mag in mag well. Has anyone here dealt with both these inlets? If so can you point me...

    AICS mag question

    Question: Will a 5 round 308 AICS magazine fit in a standard Eagle stock pack? I saw the large stock packs on Triad's web site but they show out of stock. Also, for any other LE out there, where to you carry spare magazines for the DBM systems? Thanks, George

    Tac Ops, Pulled the trigger on another one

    I had planned on building up an M40A1 clone on a return stock for my father (an old Marine) as a 65th birthday present. He let me know he was more interested in some of the newer trends than in nostalgia. (Hey, it is his birthday not mine) In order to maintain some of the classic "look" but...

    Gunsmithing Surgeon DBM in an M5 inlet.

    I got a reply from Surgeon today that putting one of their DBM units in a badger M4/M5 inlet would require a bit of work. Has anyone here done this before and if so, how much work was involved. I picked up a new Baker Special stock from a Hide member and am trying to decide "where" I want to...
