Does anyone use a secondary optic for the bolt action rifle and if so how effective is the utilisation? I am considering putting a Docter Sight III on a SPUHR mount (45°) that's holding a 5-25x56 S&B PM II. I wanted to use it on smallish targets between 50 -100 metres with a .308. I'd...

As the title says. I cant get in contact with Starlight themselves and am in the market for one.

Has anyone tried to get Calanders of the ground for the forum? Have nothing on it but dates and precesion rifles. One for the US, UK and Aus (catering for the respective holidays, still using the same monthly images for the different countries). The funds raised could go to worthy causes from...

Hey Guys, I have a pair of Camelbak gloves I am considering customising for my shooting purposes. I am thinking of cutting slits in the index fingers and thumbs for when I need to clear jams and when I am about to squeeze a light single stage trigger. I use gloves to help defeat wind...

I can't understand why AI hasn't made a multicalibre rifle system for 338 LM down to the 6mm rounds. What a perfect setup they would have if they reengineered and implement this idea. Less setup and production costs, could charge more for the system and more diverse for miltary, LE and the...

I would like to hear from anyone that has used both these projectiles for long range hunting? I am looking at the 180grn SGK and 175gr BMGVLDH and want a projectile that allows maximum distance with adequate expansion. The game will be medium to small game.

I'm looking at running both projectiles through the same rig. Can anyone perceive any issues with this pertaining to precession with either if I run them through the same rifle or, should they both remain as precise as if I was to dedicate each specific round to their own rifle that was...

Does anyone know when the 36 mrad option will be released for the consumer?

Hey Guys, I was wondering if it would be safe to shoot some brass that have a headspace length 0.3mm smaller than the min SAMMI spec? How much room does the SAMMI spec have to play with regarding this dimension? I know you can disregard the COAL provided that you know your Ogive and...

Hey Guys, I have noticed some minor tarnishment markings on my 175 SMK's. They haven't been in storage for that long (about 6 months to a year). My question is if you buy in bulk can the projectiles have issues when in storage for around a decade? I'm thinking about purchasing one...

What experience do shooters have ranging deer size targets (non-metalic) with the different models of Vectronix products? Please keep in mind I am not after information ranging houses, buildings, cars etc. The purpose of the feedback will be for long range hunting applications.

I'm tossing up getting a 3-27 or possibly 2 Beasts. Is the 3-27 worth the extra price over the 5-25? I remember reading that it will be another leap forward but I haven't heard much more about it. Anyone have one and if so what is their honest impression / comparison? It will be...

Does anyone know if you can attach the TacOps DB to a pack and if so which packs?

Does anybody know why S&B don't make there P4 fully illuminated? I think the technology is there to have the tradional illumination aswell as full illumination with both red and green. Same goes for the MSR. When shooting in lowlight the full illumination defiantly is benificial.

I am after individuals personal reticle preferences and reasons behind their choice. I am tossing up between the P4 fine with MSR or the Horus series. The main function will be shooting at extreme ranges (up to and exceeding 2000m). From what I understand the P4 Fine with MSR allows for a...

Where can I buy a Mike Lucas bore guide for a 308 & 223 both with Remington 700 actions using Dewey rods and will send to Australia?

Why hasn't the optics industry created a multi zero optic? The engineers should be able to create a design based on either a button or turn mechanised system that returns the optics zero to a specific point (pre set datum specified by the shooter). A zero stop for the zero stop if you will...

Hey Guys, Does anybody know whether this configuration is possible? I can't find a reseller of the ACI in Aus or willing to ship here. I also note that the Horus gives both the Degree and Cosine value. I am not aware of any other indicator that does this. Can the NF bubble be mounted...

I am researching the most economical way to make an orthogonal moving target at ranges past 400 meters. I so far have heard of helium filled balloons towed behind a RC vehicle. The downside is that this has a very limited range unless you boost the power of the transmitter. I am considering an...
