Re: New Product! By Snipers for Snipers!
Below I've assembled a "Load Compatibility Matrix" that allows users of other .308 bullets to use one of the three included 175 SMK slides. The below listed bullets will track within +/- 0.2 Mils when fired at the listed velocities, it works like a charm. The intent here is to broaden the range of what a single set of three FDAC slides can do, providing you with more bang for your buck.

Re: New Product! By Snipers for Snipers!
2500fps and 2550fps slides are in production right now, we designed these at the request of folks using short barreled .308's that are required to shoot M118LR, MK316, etc in 20"-16" barrels.
These new slides will also provide compatibility with a wider velocity band for the 168 SMK and 168 AMAX, as well as other bullets. The "Load Compatibility Matrix" will be updated when the new slides hit the street. The current matrix can be found on our website as well for future reference. It will be continuously updated as our product line grows.

Those that ordered the original (3) slide FDAC will be shipped the two new slides free of charge. I will announce when they are in hand and ready to ship.

Very excited to hear this, I've got an 18" 308 that will be finished shortly!
If we order now, will you just hold the order until the new cards show up and ship all 5?

Re: New Product! By Snipers for Snipers!
Oh my god, what is it with you people whining about "The US not trusting us in the WOT"? I mean how can you possibly even draw that conclusion?
If a US business wanna sell shit abroad, that business needs to fill out forms, wade through red tape, and pay alot of fees. Now why in the hell would any business do that, only to be able to sell to a couple of whining foreigners?
And where in the hell do you guys get of on translating that to the US not trusting "you guys" in the WOT?
Some times... Djeez.

Not a problem at all, just email us at [email protected] after placing your order and we'll hold off on shipping until the 2500-2550 slides arrive. Should be very soon.
Thanks for the support guys, we've received a tremendous response in the past two months, and a great deal of the initial momentum was gained from the members of this <span style="text-decoration: underline">single</span> internet forum.
We've got some even cooler stuff in the final stages of production right now, it will be released very soon.

Swede ,
You have no idea of the BS & redtape & extra cost involved with dealing with US makers .
I do , as I have Imported Rifle actions & barrels for a few yrs , 5 yrs ago , no problem , But now its virtually to expensive & lenghtly in time ( redtape ) .
So now I look at actions & barrels from the UK & Germany , instead of the US ( Surgeon & Bartlein ).
Imagine that you are looking at buying a canted base for your LR Rifle , the mount is made outside the US , so you think , NICE , no problems , only to be told that it use's US made torq screws , and as such they cannot supply , NOW thats really mind bending stuff , of which , NO one inside the US ever knows about , hears about or has to deal with .
I have said this before , a lot of stuff is being made out side the US , due in most to the US requirements on Exporting .
I thank GOD , that AI rifles are made in England & S&B are made in Germany , every day .

At first it really pissed me off as well that we had that much red tape importing US made gear that it became impossibly to get hold of. But because of this and the weak £ more and more is now made outside the US and we are beginning to get a manufacturing base back in this country again which can only be a good thing.
I do now make an effort to by UK made goods or source from the EU as I need a consistant supply. I'm not in any way anti USA but you can't get away from the fact that this only started during the WOT and we are your allies.
I think as with a lot off media you don't hear the full story. I've not a clue which other countries are in Iraq other than UK and US as the media don't report it and I suspect in the US many don't know the UK are involved!

Effective COB we will no longer be taking payments directly through PayPal for the FDAC. Please use the following link to our website:
http://actsvirginia.com/sliderule.php
Click on the PURCHASE! button on the bottom of that page and go from there. We have had many folks who wanted to purchase multiple FDACs, this new "button" makes that possible.
The FDAC now also comes with two additional slides for the 175gr going 2500 and 2550 fps. Hence the increase in price. We will be updating the compatibility matrix as well so stay tuned.
Thank-you for your patronage.

Re: New Product! By Snipers for Snipers!
As if this product needs more publicity, it's absolutely outstanding!
Myself and Stefan73 went out shooting yesterday. I loaded up some 175 SMK's as I wanted to test the FDAC out, as well as get some shooting in without using up my 208 amax's that I need for the match coming up in January.
We had some wild winds to deal with 10-13mph full value and gusty. We setup out targets and I set my zero for the 175's and we proceeded to drive back along the range road to a point and decided to shoot from there. I mil-ranged the target, checked the DA on the Kestrel at 700, used the +1K setting on the FDAC, dialed my elevation and wind, bang..hit. Elevation on the money, just slightly right by less than 1/2moa. Hit the target with the LRF and got 476 yards. I mil'd it at 450, close enough to still get a solid hit.
We moved back and I wasn't getting a good reliable reading on the mid-range item that we left to get the range on, I finally got what I was ranging at 744 yards. I used 750 data and ended up 2MOA over the POA. After shooting at that range for a while we walked down to the mid point and ranged off the truck, and then the targets and came up with 727. Take a bit off to account for the additional distance of the back of the truck from where we were actually shooting from and it was 710-715'ish. Either way, the FDAC was on the money.....if I ranged correctly, lol.
Hopefully before too long we can take it back to 1,000 and see if I can get a solid first round hit (or miss if it's windy, in which case I always just look at elevation, and not worry so much about windage). I'm tempted to put together my own little promotional video, but I think that LowLight's video has a LOT more credibility behind it.
To the makers of the FDAC, thank you for a kick butt product. I'm looking forward to more cards coming out! And another big thanks to Stefan73 for the gift of this FDAC!

I mil-ranged the target, checked the DA on the Kestrel at 700, used the +1K setting on the FDAC, dialed my elevation and wind, bang..hit. Elevation on the money, just slightly right by less than 1/2moa. Hit the target with the LRF and got 476 yards. I mil'd it at 450, close enough to still get a solid hit.
We moved back and I wasn't getting a good reliable reading on the mid-range item that we left to get the range on, I finally got what I was ranging at 744 yards. I used 750 data and ended up 2MOA over the POA. After shooting at that range for a while we walked down to the mid point and ranged off the truck, and then the targets and came up with 727. Take a bit off to account for the additional distance of the back of the truck from where we were actually shooting from and it was 710-715'ish. Either way, the FDAC was on the money.....if I ranged correctly, lol.
Hopefully before too long we can take it back to 1,000 and see if I can get a solid first round hit (or miss if it's windy, in which case I always just look at elevation, and not worry so much about windage). I'm tempted to put together my own little promotional video, but I think that LowLight's video has a LOT more credibility behind it.
To the makers of the FDAC, thank you for a kick butt product. I'm looking forward to more cards coming out! And another big thanks to Stefan73 for the gift of this FDAC!
