    "Tactical" 22lr match ideas

    A buddy of mine has a farm we shoot at and we were tossing the idea of 22lr "3 gun" around since well... we are all cheap. ;) Clearly there is no 22lr shotgun stage we considered a 22 precision rifle stage to take its place. From poking around at other small match ideas and some derived from...

    Night Vision anyone own the LDI ITAL/OTAL Class I ir?

    just looking for a decent priced IR laser, hopefully that will be able to go out to +/- 200 yrds seems for the $525 from TNVC its a better deal than the $350 for the lasermax since the ITAL comes with a pressure switch and actual adjustments for aiming. (as opposed to mini set screws) also...

    Night Vision M845 NV scope vs Pulsar 550

    anyone have/used both? from the youtube videos and still shots i can find it looks like the 845 out performs the 550 stock. Seems some folks add magnifiers to the 550 to improve performance. they are pretty close in pricing to eachother. just from reading what i have, i would assume the...

    CZ452 Varmint vs American

    like the idea of a heavy barrel of the varmint, dislike the idea of 1 action screw. I like the 16'' american comes already threaded, even if its a goofy pitch since I want to thread anyhow. question, how accurate are the americans compared to the varmints?

    XLR chassis - little help?

    so i got this chassis from another fella here, all excited today when it showed. I cleaned everthing, bolted the action up and slapped in a mag and it wont lock. To my eye it appears that the mag is hitting a piece of the action that has a little threaded hole (where my old bottom metal...

    help me ID this stock and bottom metal?

    Stock looks like a McM HTG to me but has MITCHELL stamped into it. Def fiberglass as you can see the grain in the inletting and you can make out the crosshatch of the fiberglass cloth slightly through the coloring. Bottom metal is steel and 2 piece. Had this stock for a couple years, got it...

    i know a magnet will tell me steel from alum, but isn't some stainless non-magnetic? before anyone suggests it.... i would love to ask the manufacturer... but try asking Ares Defense about anything. Plus, I don't think they even make cans anymore. anyhow, i've never cleaned mine. its...
