    Rifle Scopes Premier, S&B, Kahles or March?...

    I'm looking to replace my Nightforce NXS 8-32x56 (MOA) that I have on my .308, as the field of view at 8x magnification is not large enough for 100/200/300 yard multi position shooting that I do (pop-up and moving targets). This same scope is fine for the 600-1000 yard courses of fire but I...

    VV N550 and 175SMK .308 Loads

    Hi, I'm looking for some good fast loads for my .308 using Vihtavuori N550 and 175SMK's in Winchester brass. I have been doing some OCW load development, seem to be coming out with nodes around 47gn and 49gn, and would like to see what others are running for comparison. Also it would be nice to...
