    DEBATE: Weaponlights (White) on SPRs, Yes or No?

    I consider my "SPR" build a range toy and not something I would be likely to grab in any sort of situation. This is how I justify no backup irons and no light etc. I think if your SPR is a rifle you would consider grabbing in a situation then it's better to have it and not need it then need it...

    New Rifle: Seekins Havak HIT

    I recently sold my RPR and am in market for something new. This certainly has my interest peaked.

    NF NXS vs Mk5

    I know it's 8oz heavier, but at the same length that the 2.5-10 was, the NX8 2.5-20 is a decent scope for this use case in my opinion.

    Shout out to Euro Optics (Delta Point Pro)

    I just picked up a like new nx8 2.5-20 from them, arrived in 2 days in the box and truly looked like new. Super happy.

    Interesting Barrel Chop Phenomenon

    I came here to say this. Especially true with a fastish powder like Varget.

    How far?

    Sorry to (also) be the bearer of bad news, but that scope is not going to be a good fit for your RPR. As an example, I am running a scope with 110 moa equivalent of internal elevation adjustment on my RPR. While there are no hard rules here, I think a general guideline for success would be to...

    Rifle Scopes The Arken Optics Thread (merged)

    Well it looks like you are right about the EPRs shipping first. I just received a call from Michael at Arken advising that the shipping email was sent in error and that they do not have the SHR reticle models yet. He was very apologetic and said mid July was when they were hoping to have...

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    In short, yes. I am a big fan of 2 stage triggers because they let you settle up and take up the first stage and sit on the second stage wall... when your ready to let one fly, it's like pulling a single stage trigger from that point but you already have your finger married to the trigger...

    Sig Kilo3000BDX and Kestrel

    I asked the Kestrel folk this exact question and got the same answer as what alwayswatchyoursix posted. The link is an AB protocol over bluetooth so it will only work between AB products.

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    I put a light coat of grease on that cocking piece (Anarchy Outdoors / AD Arms variety) where it runs in the bolt and I found it was lighter in bolt manipulation feel vs the stock one also lubed. I only mention this in case people are running them dry.. I think stock or AM they need a little...

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    As much as I love my full size RPR, when it came time to build a NRL22 rifle, I had to go with a Tikka T1X in a chassis. In the end I spent a decent bit more money, but it just feels like a more substantial rifle with a better upgrade path.

    Timney makes an excellent trigger for it (I have one), just nothing for the single stage guys.

    Rifle Scopes Looking for a scope, but don’t know what

    I agree with Eoddave, if you want a top end magnification over 6x, I would look at ffp. You may want to use your reticle at something less than full magnification when shooting at 400-600 yards, but still need to do hold overs or measure for corrections. Edit: do you want an lpvo 1-X or...

    Fieldcraft Ham Radio Contact

    40m and 20m work best for me, but I can try 80 if that's what others prefer. Nights and weekends would be my preference for timeing, but could also likely do earlyish in the mornings. I am in the San Diego / SoCal area.
