    Flashlight With Permanent Strobe ON

    Thanks for the responses everyone. I currently have a Fenix TK-15 but I have to push and hold the mode button to get into strobe, which I'd like to get away from. I'm actually considering a Four-Sevens Quark Tactical/Pro Q2TL-X. They are programmable so I can set it to always be in strobe...

    Flashlight With Permanent Strobe ON

    Hello everyone. I've been trying to find a flashlight that will keep the strobe mode engaged. What I mean by that is that after the strobe mode is turned on and the light is switched off, I want the strobe to automatically come back on when I turn the light back on. This light will be going...

    Good pants without drawing attention or looking like a tacti-tard.

    I've had 3 pairs of the 5.11 taclite pants for a couple years now and I am not impressed. I, by most standards, am not very rough on them: every day wearing and a couple easy camping trips. Two pairs have stitching coming out and one of those two also has the fabric wearing through on the left...

    has any one used a otis Deluxe cleaning kit

    Re: has any one used a otis Deluxe cleaning kit I haven't used one, and probably wouldn't for most of my rifles, but I am looking at getting one for cleaning my Garand and M1 carbine, which don't lend themselves well to a rod.

    Strange traveling quesiton

    I'm sorry if this is the wrong spot to post this but nothing really fit perfectly. I'm hoping to take a trip from here in PA to Nebraska with a friend and his wife to visit some mutual friends. I want to bring a couple rifles with. My friend is driving and I am flying because I only can go...

    Rifle Scopes Millett LRS-1 mil/mil

    Re: Millett LRS-1 mil/mil I went with the TRS-1 and I'm with you, for the money these are great scopes. Mine goes back and forth between my ar15 and 110ba in 338LM, holds zero and the 1/4 clicks are as dead on as I would ever need. I hope you enjoy your scope as much as I do...and get some...

    So what would you do if some ammo went kaboom?

    Re: So what would you do if some ammo went kaboom? Wow that's nuts. I definitely wouldn't shoot any of that ammo, it sucks that you have so much of it though. I had a primer come out of a hornady tap .223 round once, immediately stopped shooting that box. I told them about it but they...

    Lead sled??

    Re: Lead sled?? I would definitely agree with everyone that a lead sled is bad for learning. But in my mind they are good for working up a load. If you're like me and look at a group you just test fired and wonder "was that really what the rifle would have shot, or is it because of...

    What you would expect? Load test, step #2

    I ran a ladder test for my AR at 400 yards, and picked the 4 hits that were closest vertically. So for the next step I did 3 shot groups of those 4 loads, plus the in between loads (it was only .2 gr steps for the ladder), so 7 groups total; 22.5gr to 23.1gr. In my mind I was expecting the...

    redding dies?

    Re: redding dies? I really like my Redding dies. I have the full length bushing and comp seating die for .223, and neck bushing and seating die for .338 LM. Both are great, I think you'll like them! PS. I would think the comp. seating dies would be a bit of a waste of money if you just...

    GG&G bipods

    Re: GG&G bipods I ordered one 7 weeks ago. I finally gave up, got an atlas and cancelled the order for the GG&G. They look like a great bipod, but the wait for one is ridiculous IMO.

    Wet Powder

    Re: Wet Powder I don't know why I didn't think of this until now but this bit of info might help with answers...or just confuse the situation more. I loaded up 12 rounds of .338 LM with powder from this bottle for a ladder test. Round #9, 91.4gr had a very light ejector buff mark on it...

    Wet Powder

    I did a quick search and couldn't find anything addressing this question, so sorry if it has been gone over already. I recently bought 1 lb of Retumbo powder and it has a couple clumps in it, one is pretty big. Can I just dry the powder out and still use it, or is it no good? Thanks!

    Help with first ladder test

    Re: Help with first ladder test oops! Probably should have mentioned they were shot off a rest. The only touching of the rifle I did was squeezing the trigger. Thanks for the response! I'll have to try the Retumbo next, I've seen about 50/50 between liking Retumbo and H1000.
