    Official (DTA) SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Thread

    PROOF Research - carbon fiber DTA barrel Here’s a teaser with my personal DTA SRS. Our factory test pilot took it out to test fire with a prototype PROOF Research carbon fiber-wrapped 338LM barrel (not available for sale yet). Consistent 0.57 MOA 3-shot groups with RUAG SWISS-P 250-gr. They...

    Hells Canyon Armory New Carbon Composite Rifles

    "Black Mamba" "Carbinator" That's a seriously sweet looking rifle. What is the barrel life like? Can it handle 15-20 round strings of fire without walking? How does it compare to the current Proof Research barrels? I'd really be interested to see group size for a 20-rd string. Thanks!

    Fieldcraft Watches ??

    Re: Watches ?? + on Casio G-shock. They never break and if you lose one you are not heartbroken. The expensive digital watches I've had all failed. As of a couple years ago the NSW issue watch was a G-Shock. Was a Rolex many years ago but I think the Navy got tired of replacing "lost"...

    My new 3Gun AR15

    Re: My new 3Gun AR15 Roger that. I'm not saying you can't find a brake that feels softer indoors...there probably are some. But within a reasonable range, sensitivity to impulse or noise as relates to gunfighting is a training issue. If your teammate's muzzle blast pointing away from you is...

    Thinking of shooting f class

    Re: Thinking of shooting f class I just like to shoot. F-Class, Appleseed, Practical, 3gun, it's all good. Appleseed is not just for newbies though. Like anything, you can do it at your level. Try cleaning the course with a .22. Once you can do that try it with an AR with a 4 MOA Aimpoint. I...

    Help me decide on a 308

    Re: Help me decide on a 308 Love, love, love my OBR. My buddies love their OBR's. GAP-10 is a little less expensive and I have buddies that love theirs. I say it's a toss up. LMT would also be in my "three .308's I would be very happy with." Can't speak to the machining on all the...

    Best Tripod Head / Mount

    I've been on a search for a couple of years to find the "best" head to mount my spotting scope. Until now I've been using a Markins M20 ballhead, which, while a great head for photographic purposes, leaves something to be desired because it is a "ballhead", which means one knob loosens the mount...

    Spotting scopes with ranging reticle

    Re: Spotting scopes with ranging reticle I have a Vortex Razor HD with MilRadian reticle on the way -- it's not in that price category but could be an option to consider down the road. I'd be interested to see how the Bushnell does with heavy mirage at 1k -- this weekend I compared a...

    some torquing tools I can afford and use only once

    Re: some torquing tools I can afford and use only once Get the Borka, it works fine and is convenient. You'll use it more than once. For cap screws just trust your built-in Mk 1, Mod 1, brain pan-activated digit-based torque meter. Hold the allen key by the short end between thumb and...

    R700 Receiver versus?

    Re: R700 Receiver versus? My best 5-shot group with my Surgeon was .26 with factory ammo (GM308M2), that's not unusual for Surgeon or GAP, and I'm a crappy group shooter so I'm sure it can do better. Maybe I misunderstood you Moon, but I got the impression that you believe custom actions in...

    Why I like LaRue Tactical

    Re: Why I like LaRue Tactical Freebies don't necessarily come out of the customer's pocket, and every business does not have the same operating efficiency or margins. LaRue may run a tighter ship than Competitor X, allowing him to sell equivalent quality for a lower price while still throwing...

    AICS, NF 5.5x20x50, and IMUNS picture request.

    Re: AICS, NF 5.5x20x50, and IMUNS picture request. I have that set-up but no pics -- it will be fine. If you put a PVS-27 on there though, you will need to unscrew the sunshade.

    Rifle Scopes "Tactical" store in So Cal

    Re: "Tactical" store in So Cal Don't think they have NF (call to be sure) but Rifle Gear in Fountain Valley is worth putting on your list for a visit. That said, if you have the budget for NightForce then you can just trust in ordering one sight unseen. I have several. Tactile feel of the...
