    Issues connecting Garmin Tactix 7 Pro Ballistics to AB Quantum

    Okay, thanks! I'll give that a shot and see if it works. Technology sure can be a pain when we're trying to make our lives easier!

    Issues connecting Garmin Tactix 7 Pro Ballistics to AB Quantum

    Did uninstalling everything and reinstalling it fix the problem for you? Also, will that cause you to lose your other saved data in Connect? I have several years worth of workout data in there that I don't want to lose in the process of doing this! I will say that I've uninstalled and...

    Issues connecting Garmin Tactix 7 Pro Ballistics to AB Quantum

    I'm having trouble seeing which version I'm on, but since I downloaded the Quantum version of AB for the first time yesterday I can only assume it's the newest version.

    Issues connecting Garmin Tactix 7 Pro Ballistics to AB Quantum

    Is anyone having connectivity issues between the Tactix 7 Pro Ballistics watch and the Applied Ballistics Quantum App? My watch connects to my phone just fine, and I use it with Garmin Connect on a daily basis. The AB Quantum App also seems to be working okay, as it's detecting one of my...

    Eberlestock Gunslinger II review

    I've got the Gunslinger II pack as well, and I like it a lot. I would change a few things: I don't like the location of the shoulder lift straps, as I find them hard to grab and adjust when the pack is on. I also wish the top pouch would open on the same side (rear) as the main compartment of...

    Tripod choice (for rifle support)? Need an opinion between two options from RRS!

    I need some help choosing between two shooting tripod options! I was visiting my friends at MHSA last week, and was looking at a couple of very viable options for a shooting tripod. I'm mainly planning to use this tripod to support a gun, but I'm also a pretty serious photographer, and could...

    Let's talk AR-10 barrels for a moment

    Thanks for the advice, everyone. Have any of you used the Proof Research carbon wrapped barrels? If so, how well do those barrels stack up agains the other ones we've been discussing in this thread thus far?

    Let's talk AR-10 barrels for a moment

    I'm looking at doing an AR-10 style build in the near future, probably in .308 Win or .260 Rem (haven't decided which just yet -- I already have bolt guns in both calibers, so I'll figure that out later). Anyway, I'm trying to figure out what the best barrel options are that I can use on this...

    Rifle Scopes Will USO Survive???

    Personally, I didn't see it that way. The OP's question was exactly what I expected to see when I opened this thread. Back when I first got into this type of shooting it seemed like USO had a real strong following, and was talked about a lot. I had a chance to shoot with one of their scopes...

    Rifle Scopes New Steiner T5Xi Tactical Rifle Scopes

    Come on Martin, you know we need to know the day, hour, and precise minute of release! ;) I'll stick to the MIL SCR reticle myself, since I'm already accustomed to thinking in that language these days… it's a sexy looking setup that I can't wait to try shooting!

    Rifle Scopes Steiner Optics Factory / The new T5Xi thread (-!!-Picture Heavy-!!-)

    Don't worry, it's coming soon! I know I've heard a few folks complaining that the scope wasn't released quite as quickly as anticipated, but it's definitely coming very soon. And, by industry standards it will be decidedly early… I seem to recall waiting about a year beyond the expected...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner Optics Factory / The new T5Xi thread (-!!-Picture Heavy-!!-)

    Wow. I had no idea that the 3-20x S&B had jumped that high! In fact, after reading your post I looked it up for myself. That's insane, and a good chunk more than mine cost us a couple of years ago. Unfortunately this seems to follow the trend for S&B, wherein they continuously raise the...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner Optics Factory / The new T5Xi thread (-!!-Picture Heavy-!!-)

    Ha! I'm sure you know that you're one of the folks I was thinking of when I mentioned that some people hate MTC turrets! As I mentioned, I think Martin and the Steiner team made a smart decision by not adding a feature of this type to their new scope, since there really is such a love or hate...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner Optics Factory / The new T5Xi thread (-!!-Picture Heavy-!!-)

    Well, if you ask ten shooters this question, you'll probably get ten different answers. I currently own and use a Schmidt and Bender scope, and I've been thinking of adding the new Steiner to my collection for a .308 Win rifle that I've been thinking of fielding in some competitions. Here's my...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner Optics Factory / The new T5Xi thread (-!!-Picture Heavy-!!-)

    Yeah, that's definitely part of it. I was with Coloshooter for the tour yesterday (I'm the "hand model" in some of those photos — ain't I sexy?). Anyway, we witnessed some of the torture testing you described. While it may not be as entertaining as watching someone throw a scope across an...

    Rifle Scopes New Steiner T5Xi Tactical Rifle Scopes

    Martin, Thanks for the tour today! It was a very educational experience, and we're both thankful for the time you spent with us this afternoon. For those of you who don't live close enough to drop by Steiner's facility here in Colorado, I'll give you my perspective: 1) A lot of thought...

    Stainless steel tumbling - still dirty primer pockets

    Thanks for the replies, everyone. To answer a few of the questions: 1) I don't know if my brass/media ratio is "right". I've got the Frankford Arsenal tumbler, which has a fairly large container. They claim it will take 1,000 .223 cases, which seems a bit optimistic to me. I was at 175...

    Stainless steel tumbling - still dirty primer pockets

    So, I finally joined the world of stainless steel tumbling this evening, and ran my first load through the Frankford Armory tumbler they built for this purpose. I tumbled 175 pieces of .308 Win and .260 Rem brass, and my brass really hasn't ever been shinier. But, despite everything I've heard...
