4 oz is a quarter of a pound and it is a big deal. I removed a 4 oz gas block and a 4 oz muzzle device from the M&P-10 and replaced them with lighter units, saving close to 6 oz. Ounces do add up

The pros of longer free float handguards- -More of the rifle can be kept behind cover when using cover as a rest -Protects more of the barrel -Better protection to the shooter when barrel is hot -Lets shooter stretch out further if needed Cons- -More weight -Longer handguards can cost more...

Wish I'd seen this thread a few days earlier. Impact Guns in Ogden has a decent selection of NF, S&B and a couple of others and would have been worth the drive. Scheels, which is a big box store kinda like Cabella's, had a good selection of high end scopes last time I stopped in

For best mechanical accuracy- -Match barrel with a bolt properly head spaced to it -Free float tube -No muzzle device. If a muzzle device is used, don't over torque it Add a buttstock that fits you and a good trigger A word about "match grade" barrels- They are undoubtedly good barrels but...

Dear Night Force, Shorten the turret towers and use exposed adjusters and you will have a winner. No sense in having Zero Stop on a scope where the caps will have to be removed- in the field, where they will be dropped and lost- to take advantage of the Zero Stop. Other than that, this looks to...

The Wolf Cub, Just finished building it a couple of weeks ago It's still evolving

The sights on a FAL are battle sights. They are not as precise as M14 sights but they work really well. The M14 is a good, solid, reliable durable rifle. It's accurate and it self regulates with a wide variety of ammo. But it takes a little more specialized maintenance. The FAL is also a good...

FDE stays cooler in the hot sun than black or green

You can increase the LOP of an M14 stock by replacing the steel buttplate with an SAI rubber buttpad

A real good FAL with good ammo will get you 2 moa. With milsurp, expect 4 moa. They are an awesome battlerifle

Is the M14 scoped, or is it being used with iron sights? If iron sights, the lightest, toughest stock is the USGI fiberglass. How bad is the existing stock? Does the trigger group lock into place with some tension, or does the trigger guard snap into place with no resistance? If it locks into...

THINGS THAT WILL IMPROVE THE MECHANICAL ACCURACY OF AN AR 1) Quality barrel, including chamber. It doesn't matter if the barrel is made of stainless steel or chromoly steel. However, due to the way the steels wear, the chromoly barrel loses accuracy gradually and the stainless steel barrel will...

Does that mean she's not a crack shot if I DON'T live in Kentucky?? My wife is one of those pink rifle haters. She told me her AR WILL be black! Still, pretty cool that your daughter loves to shoot and is mature and responsible on the range. It's also very cool she was able to paint her rifle...

If I understand your question right, you're wondering if the the LWRC lower has a low shelf lower receiver which would allow the installation of the full auto fire control group. I'm not familiar with the details of the LWRC lowers and don't know if they use a low or high shelf, but if I recall...

Actually, the 2 stage G trigger is very similar in design to the standard trigger. One main difference is the reset sear. In the standard trigger, once the trigger is released and the hammer is reset, the reset sear doesn't touch the hammer before the shot breaks. With the 2 stage G trigger, the...

ORD is correct. Bill Geissele put out an email explaining why KNS pins & the G trigger is a bad match. ORD hit the highlights

Let's see what Molon's ballistic chart shows. The red line is a 36 yard zero which puts the bullet about an inch high at 50 yards. The green line is a 100 yard zero That shows an impact between 3 inches high at 100 25 yard zero. Bullet path is about 2 inches high at 50 and about 6 inches...

Here is a chart worked up by Sierra for the 168 gr MK at various velocities & zeros. The bullet path starts at -1.5" so LOS is 1.5" above the bore http://www.exteriorballistics.com/ebexplained/4th-rifle_tables/pdf/308168hpbt.pdf Menu of bullet charts exterior ballistics

Those who are insisting that the bullet path must intersect the line of sight twice, or not at all have either forgotten what they learned in geometry, or were never taught geometry at all. There is always a zero where the top of the arc of the bullet path rises to touch the plane of the line of...
