    Innovative Technologies Reloading Equipment

    I have been using the LW die for about 20 years (which is about how long I've been a member here) am thoroughly acquainted with it, and therefore aware that it *is* possible to f it up. Except for you. You couldn't possibly have f'd it up, or even *entertain* the possibility that you f'd it up-...

    What incredibly typical behavior. Being arrogant and abrasive , then crying victim when someone pushes back.

    Re: Question about US Optics PCMOA reticle As stated above. I have 2 USO's w/ PCMOA reticle. It is calibrated in IPHY, and the knobs are IPHY as well. Checked it myself against a yardstick @ 100 yards. 100% spot on. Reticle as well as tracking of the adjustments. BUY IT :-)

    Using a war-belt or vest for tactical comps

    Re: Using a war-belt or vest for tactical comps I know which match you are talking about, I usually shoot it. I usually run a belt with just the basics: Pistol, pistol ammo, rifle ammo, LRF (not really needed) dump pouch to dump my empties in (pockets work just as well). All the rest, ie...

    Re: Density Altitude Pete: Actually, I'm not leery of electronic gadgets, I usually embrace them. Just been scrod by them enough times to know they f' up when you need them most. Yes, I have a Kestrel that I use to get the D/A, but I also have a chart to compute D/A, all I have to know is...

    Tips/Drills to get ready for ASC Fall match

    Re: Tips/Drills to get ready for ASC Fall match 160 rounds is usually adequate for both days, that would be the max, if you never got a first round hit. I have missed maybe one ASC since 2005, and my data book shows 105 to 110 rounds to shoot the whole match, every time, so unless something...

    Range Report 208-210 RANGE REPORT with a 308..

    Re: 208-210 RANGE REPORT.. I had a shitty lot of Berger 210 VLDs awhile back. Compared to the previous lot I had, the meplat was huge, and the ogive was a bit different. Didn't need to pull out measuring tools to see this, it was completely apparent to the naked eye. I had to use 2 gr. more...

    Tips/Drills to get ready for ASC Fall match

    Re: Tips/Drills to get ready for ASC Fall match Bill pretty much nailed it, but here's my 2 cents.... Travel as light as you can, just essentials. The less tired you are, the better you'll shoot. Rifle with a good sling, some like to carry their rifle in a drag bag or folding rifle...

    &1000.00 on $500.00 gun????????

    Re: &1000.00 on $500.00 gun???????? I've got a $2k USO on a $1k rifle. The sighting system is the most important part of the gun. Without it, you can't hit anything. Besides, good glass is an investment that will last a lifetime, and can outlast several rifles. Marc

    Rifle Scopes Angle indicator: Which one?

    Re: Angle indicator: Which one? I do like the ACI better than the Horus device, but not because you can calibrate the zero. Both indicators read out in 5 degree increments. 20 MOA is only one third of a degree. You won't see it. Marc

    Rifle Scopes Angle indicator: Which one?

    Re: Angle indicator: Which one? Cosine indicator is the way to go. Eliminates a step. I don't care what the angle is in degrees, I just need to know the cosine of the angle. Flat dope x cosine gets REAL close, and it's fast. Quicker (and more accurate) than the Mildot Master Method...

    Re: Advice on Spotting scope with mil reticle I have a USO spotter, I bought it for ranging UKD targets, because it's MOA reticle matches the ones in my USO scopes. It is very good for that- but as Our Fearless Leader said, it's not really a true spotter for use on the range. The field of...
