I'm looking at buying IOR's 1.1-4 Tactical scope. They offer their 'medium' and 'high' rings along with their scopes. Anybody have any experience with these on an AR? Which ones seem to work best? Any idea on height over bore with the different sets of rings? Thanks

Re: The reality and future of the .308 7.62 NATO There's a definite place for the .308. A semi auto, medium range sniper weapon was just what the doctor ordered for Iraq, and it's even great in Afghanistan. There were big army sniper teams that were overrun while guns were rockin away on an...

Re: Current US Army rifle qual?? A couple of people who recommend magazine on the ground- Kyle Lamb, Larry Vickers, me... If you are pulling rearward on the mag (ie- tipping the noses of rounds up) it won't malfunction, it will actually help the rounds feed. This is actually a secret to...

Re: snail trails Tracking dogs are always on a lead. Walk them through some thick stuff, especially if it's a cold tracker/ground scent dog like a hound. As the dog slips under and through the veg, he leaves his leash and tracker hung up to no end. A well trained military/LE dog is like...
