Yeah I'm thinking of doing that. It has a Hornady A Max bullet and good brass (supposedly good powder too but I would replace that). Seems like the complaints were from the seating not being correct. There are some pictures on the complaint page that shows a big difference in bullet seating...

^ This. Sure it ain't comfortable and you're not going to shoot 80 rounds through it when you take it out, but the distance, damage, and "cool factor" is worth it IMO, as long as you're reloading and you don't mind spending a fair amount of money on something that is going to see way more safe...

For what you want to do I would go .223. You could get a Rem 700 SPS Tactical in .223 for under $800, it would be easy to carry in the hills (20" barrel), pretty accurate for the ranges you want to shoot at, and will look pretty cool (come on, it matters a little bit). Long barrel life, cheap to...

Hello everybody. I haven't been on any forum, bought anything gun related, or went shooting in roughly 2 years. Longest time ever! Anyway, now that I've handled all the other things that were eating up my money I can get back to shooting. I have a Rem 700 SPS Varmint and SPS Tactical in .308...

Does Vortex make tactical knobs for the Vipers that you can purchase seperately? I like the viper line and am considering getting one, I just prefer to have marked and easy to use turret knobs. Thanks.

Re: Vortex Strikefire, Bushnell Trophy, EOTech I've been reviewing the Millet DMS and it seems like most people really like theres. Anybody on here shooting 250-350 yards with them, if so how is it? Also another low magnification small scope that I saw in my range is the Leupold Mark AR 1.5-4...

Re: Vortex Strikefire, Bushnell Trophy, EOTech Thanks for all the info so far. When I refer to getting out around 300 yards with my 16" AR I wasn't talking much about precision, just game/man size targets. It seems like the small scopes would be hard to use for rapid engagement. I'll go to...

Re: Scope cleaning Thanks for the info guys, problem solved.

Went out shooting and the wind picked up. I want to clean it but I don't want to mess anything up. It's a Millet LRS and it didn't come with directions lol. Let me know how you guys clean yours, thanks.

So I just built 2 AR 15's, one's an A2 style that is going to be left with iron sights. The other is a flat top upper with a 16" barrel. The 16" is more for my wife. It has flip up sights on it now but she wants an optic. I was originally looking to get an EOTech because I want to be able to...

I just started reloading for my .308 bolt guns, and by just started I mean putting together my equipment lol. I would like to reload .223 since I have a few AR 15's, but it seems like I heard somewhere that you have to do something extra when reloading for a semi auto. Is that true, if so what...

Re: Newb .243 question <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: JCH</div><div class="ubbcode-body">well sort of. It is a necked down version. I wouldn't use 308 brass to make 243 brass. </div></div> This is what I was getting at. I know the ballistics on...

I just started reloading. I reload .308, .454 Casull and in a few weeks .300WM. I'm not sure if my wife is going to like shooting the .308 because she really doesn't like recoil with rifles (shoots a .44Mag handgun though, go figure). I've seen bore sighters, ammo cases, and reloading tools that...

I was wondering if there was any complications or downsides to reloading the brass that you will see in this link: http://www.midwayusa.com/viewProduct/default.aspx?productNumber=735428 The price is good and I don't care too much about the factory ammo itself, I just don't want any problems or...

Re: Just get a cheap scope for a precision gas gun? I'm surprised the department you work for would use that cheap of a scope. I'm not saying they aren't good but around here the marksman shooters have top notch equipment. I would still go with the Super Sniper though, even if the don't have...

Re: millet scope My buddy has one and it's great. I have an LRS and I love it. I was surprised at how clear and bright it was all through the magnification scale. If that is your price range, I don't think I would pick anything over it. Unless you like fixed magnification, then the super...

I shot about 100 rounds through my .308 SPS-V which has a Millet LRS on it. It wasn't the first time shooting it but it was the first time that I shot that many rounds. I noticed after about 40 shots that my scope was sliding forward in the rings. The rings on it are made by Millet and came with...

What does this mean? I've seen it on a few scopes I've been looking at but when I google it I just get pictures of scopes lol. Thanks.
