    Rifle Scopes What mount will just barely clear monolithic rail with 34mm / 50mm OBJ HDMR?

    I like my AR scopes low, narrow head I guess. What mount height will just barely clear a Bushnell HDMR 34mm tube / 50mm Objective on a monolithic rail / flatop? (Mega MKM setup) I don't run flip-ups. Only a neoprene scopecoat between match stages. I'm leaning towards this one right now...

    How to link to the last page of a thread from a website?

    I'd like to link our match website to the last page of posts on a particular thread. Any way to do that? The "Last" paging link on the thread is just the static url for the last calculated page of the thread at the time. Any url pattern that takes a thread id & a 'latest' parameter of some...

    Rifle Scopes Sanity Check - Aadland/Seeking ring height on AX

    Swapping optics around, looking to upgrade my current TPS rings for something more streamlined (no nuts). Can someone sanity check my math - I originally figured on low rings but doing the math it looks like I need high rings.. I've pulled my SWFA 5-20x50 off the rifle now. The current TPS...

    What's the full-length sizer doing to my new brass

    Brand new Lapua .260 brass, Forster full-length benchrest sizer first adjusted all the way down then backed off some left distinct banding around the neck. Any idea what is going here in this photo?

    Suppressors Suppressed 357 Maximum TCA/Encore pistol/sbr?

    I've ordered a TCA Encore pistol receiver and plan on eventually doing Form 1 for it. For an upper, I want something 38 caliber since I already reload 38spl/357mag and have a stamp incoming on a Octane 9 HD suppressor. I'm looking at ordering a custom MGM barrel for it (or one you suggest)...

    Rifle Scopes US Optics Eyepiece Internal Level?

    I managed to win a USO certificate at a match this past weekend and while I'm generally very happy with my SWFA 5-20x50HD I've got the bug shopping USO's website to cash it in. I'm torn on which optic to get but am leaning toward the 3.8-22x58, probably EREK, ERGO, CaPRC reticle, and a 35mm...

    Single-stage or hand-dies for best accuracy?

    I've searched around a few times but haven't found a thread to this point. Looking to get a single-stage press to load small volumes of accurate rifle rounds (260 / 308 / 223). Are hand-dies any more accurate than a quality single-stage press with a quality die? This will complement a...

    Rifle Scopes Super-Low ring choices available?

    I have a set of TSR Low rings which mounts my 5-20x50HD higher than necessary, especially on the CZ452. I have one of the new mil-quad SS's on order now and am looking for super/extra low rings for it. MidwayUSA has been out-of-stock on these TSR SL's for over a month...

    Suppressors 9mm can for a Glock that's user serviceable?

    I'd like to purchase a 9mm can to run primarily on a Glock 17. I also already have a Glock 26 threaded and may possibly get threaded barrels for a 1911 in 9mm and a Glock 34 too. A 9mm AR15 sbr upper is another strong possibility for a host so I've leaned away from the rectangle osprey cans. A...

    Suppressors Next Form 1 project: 10/22 or T/C receiver?

    Anyone have some inspiration on a new Form 1 project to start? So far, I'm thinking either a Form 1 SBR for a 10/22 or Thompson-Center Encore/Contender receiver. I have two cans so far, AAC 762SDN6 (still waiting on the stamp for this one) and a .22 SS Sparrow. Host wise, the .22 can runs on...

    How to Stretch LOP on Boyd Tacticool stock?

    Just curious if there are any suggestions on how I might stretch out the LOP on my CZ452 Boyd's tacticool stock inexpensively. Any one have useful tricks to make it a bit longer? On my precision AR I used an SPR adjustable butt on an A2 stock for good effect.

    Suppressors Brakeout/Brake/Blackout for 223 Precision Rifle?

    I'm ordering an AAC 7.62-SDN-6 as my next can to cover my ARs and possibly a .308 down the road. My precision AR will probably wear it frequently, a 24" Sabre barreled upper in 223. I'm having my smith thread it in a week or so. Of the AAC choices available, which would you suggest for...

    Rifle Scopes Mid-range rings guidance

    My search-fu must be off, I can't find an older thread on this subject. With a SWFA 5-20x on the way, I'd like to buy a solid set rings for it. I'm running a 24" AR, JP free-float tube. At present, it has a 44mm objective optic on it with TPS Medium rings which give maybe a ~1/4 gap over the...

    Rifle Scopes Sub-$600 optic hashed out to 10 mil holdovers?

    Looking for a decently inexpensive optic for my .22lr CZ452. At 200 yards, I have a 6 to 7 mil holdover depending on ammo and zero point. I'd like to find a 10x to 16x optic, fixed or variable of usable quality hashed out to 10 mils. At present, I've tried and used the Wotac 12x (hashed to...

    Suppressors If you could start over w/ your stamp collection?

    What would you do different in regards to your SBR and suppressor collection if you started from scratch now? My first tax stamp arrived yesterday after a 4 month wait. A 10.5" AR SBR. Now I'm ready to apply for my next stamp, a can, and start that wait. If you could do it over from the...

    Suppressors 223 rated can which breaks down for cleaning?

    I've asked elsewhere in the past without too many choices. Does anyone make a good 223 rated can which can be disassembled for cleaning? I'd like to avoid buying multiple tax stamps for a .22-sized can. The TAC-16 appears to be one of the few like this that I've found.

    All torx CZ-452 action and wood screws available?

    I ordered the J&P Action screws. After ordering in a hurry I noticed matching wood screws weren't included and the socket heads are allen/hex head. Since all my optics and mounts are Torx, I have a torque wrench and bits for all things torx. Anyone still offer a Torx action screw and wood...
