    Rifle Scopes After a year and a half my sr-8m is here

    Ok, so I put an order in with Lazy for an sr-8m a year and a half ago. After some waiting and some rework by USO it is finally here. Firstly let me say that Lazy was excellent to deal with throughout this entire process, but I think his reputation already speaks for itself here. I don't have...

    Rifle Scopes Will a USO LR-17 fit into a spuhr one piece mount?

    title says it all. Will a USO LR-17 fit into a spuhr one piece mount? I am looking at the SP-3601 or similar mount for an LR-17 I have on order. I couldn't find ring spacing specifications so I don't know if the rings are far enough apart to accommodate the scope. Thanks!

    Sidearms & Scatterguns My new lever action toy

    So I know this thing isn't practical, tactical, or modern. It is, however, one of my new favorite things to shoot. It is a Chiappa take-down 1892 mare's leg chambered in 44 magnum. It really is a thing of beauty with the case hardened receiver, walnut stock and grip, and octagonal barrel. I...

    Rifle Scopes Anyone use USO windage adjustable rings? Zero method?

    I have some USO windage adjustable rings and have been deciding on what is the best way to ensure that the adjustments are equal on both rings so I don't put unnecessary strain on the scope tube. Any thoughts on the best way to zero these?

    308 max case length DOH!

    So like a dumbass I forgot to measure a few cases before priming them, 3 of them are 2.016 which is +0.001 over the max case length for 308. I understand the danger of using brass over the max but what is your opinion on just putting a light load in these and still firing them? The other...

    Case trimmer Got Giraud!

    While I am fairly new to reloading I decided to just splurge on a Giraud case trimmer. It arrived today and I ran some cases through it. All I can say is WOW, if anyone is even remotely considering buying one of these do it! Once I get a little money saved up I will be ordering his case...

    Hornady Lock n load Conversion problem

    I got a LnL conversion for my rockchucker and have had nothing but problems so far. I spend more time trying to seat the damn die than if I just threaded the sucker in there. I get inconsistent resizes because I can't get the bushing to seat exactly at the same place every time. At this point...

    Is this a crimp or something else?

    Hello gurus, help a newbie out! I have some fired winchester brass that has these crimp like grooves at the mouth. They all also seem to have larger headspace numbers when I gauge them than my other brass. Is this some kind of crimp? Is it safe to reload this?

    Now that shot show is under way, is there any more info/pics about the dfp red dot 1-8 SR-8 from US Optics? I have been waiting for this baby for a while now and have some money burning a hole in my pocket! Any idea when we can put in orders for these?

    Safe dilemma, what would you do?

    I have been considering different safes for a while now. I decided on a Liberty Franklin 35 safe. The dealer contacted me to tell me he didn't have that in stock but could order it and would probably be here mid march. He then followed up by saying he has a Franklin Fatboy 64 he could sell me...

    Steelwater gun safes?

    I am in the market for a gun safe. I cant really spend much over $1500 so these steelwater safes caught my eye. I watched a few of their break in tests on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwpZ2I_jZv4 but I am a bit skeptical. Anyone have one of these that can comment on them? I am...

    Rifle Scopes USO Milestone question

    I have received my sn-3 5-25 with milestone erek. The question I have is this: Since I have been fondling the knobs a lot I realized that if I dial in a lot of elevation and then back down, when I hit zero there is a click inside of the scope body, not the milestone knob clicks but as if the...

    Rifle Scopes USO digital illumination problem?

    I just got my sn-3 today and when I tried to turn on the digital illumination it came on for a few seconds, flicked and then turned off. I can't get it to turn back on now at all. I tested the battery with a voltmeter and it registered 3.3v so I don't think the battery is the problem. Any...

    Rifle Scopes High End QD Mount?

    Can anyone recommend a good QD mount. Obviously I want something that will have as little zero shift as possible with removal and remounting. I don't have any experience with QD mounts so I am unsure what separates a LaRue from lets say American Defense. This will be going on a scar 16 in...

    Geissele super scar

    So I finally got my super scar trigger 2 weeks ago. When I tried to assemble the trigger I realized there was a problem with the trigger pin holes lining up. I emailed Geissele on sunday and received a reply shortly after from William Geissele. He told me he would take care of it and I...

    Just a bit of useful information

    Have you ever forgotten what side your gas cap is on your car? I used to mix up mine and my wife's car a lot since they have it on different sides. This may be common knowledge but I had never heard about this and lots of people I talk to also havent. When you look at your gas gauge and there...

    Rifle Scopes USO payment options

    I remember some time ago reading about how you could pay half up front and half when the scope was finished. I was wondering if this was still an option or do you field all the money up front now? I am estimating it would probably take 8+ weeks to build the scope based on other reports and it...

    Rifle Scopes Is ARD Useful?

    I am looking at ordering an sn-3 tpal soon from uso. I will most likely want to get some sort of sunshade for it. The question is, should I get ARD? I don't so much care about masking my position and I have heard there is some loss of resolution in the sight picture. Thoughts?
