Anyone with experience with all 3? Good and bad on kauger?

I'm kind of new to optics, I've shot metallic sights most of my life. A little help would be appreciated.

Rifle is a Ruger American Predator .308, 18” barrel.
Currently using a Primary Arms 4-16 x 44 SFP with illuminated MOA reticle.

I’d like a little more magnification for being able to see antlers better. I'd like to not confuse a young buck for a doe at distance, so being able to see small buttons/spikes on a deer is what I'm trying to do.

Here's what I think is important, but if any of you see fit to steer me in a different direction, I'm all ears:

• Hunting will be the main use, occasional paper punching also, mostly just checking handload performance at 100-400 yds, but I might decide to stretch it out further at steel targets occasionally.
• Magnification that will be sufficient for what I described earlier about seeing spikes/buttons as well as possible.
• A forgiving eye box/eye relief to deal with small changes in length of pull/cheek weld that occur with thick/thin clothing or not-so-ideal shooting positions.
• I don't think MOA vs Mil will be a big deal for my uses, but I think I'd prefer to not mix units for turrets and reticles. I'm used to dealing with MOA, but I can also math, and I think all the cool kids use Mils.
• I don't know about FFP vs SFP. I've only ever shot with SFP scopes, but FFP and being able to range targets with the reticle does interest me quite a bit.
• I have no idea about what style reticle exactly, but I would think something that is not super busy would be better.
• Low-light conditions will obviously be a major thing, so light transmission is pretty important, and at least partial illumination would be nice at dusk/early morning.
• I don't know about tube diameter and objective diameter. Will it be a boat anchor if I go 34mm/50-56ish mm? Would that help with light transmission?
• Lastly, I need something that is not going to lose zero if a turret gets bumped, so some sort of locking function will be needed. I think that's pretty much standard these days, but I'm not sure.

I’m somewhat flexible on price, but the more it is, the longer it will take me to put some disposable $$ away to cover it.

Are there any suggestions for maybe a budget, a mid-range, and an upper-end scope that would fit these needs, and I can do a little looking around?

Like new. Only 15 rounds fired through it. Only marks on rifle are where the scope rings were mounted.

Hey guys,

I originally found this place because of the post exchange and I was trying to purchase a NF scope and I might have sent a few similarly worded messages and found myself banned. I hated it, because I frequently came here for gear and shooting information.

By the grace of someone, my account got unlocked and instead of just sending PM's trying to score a good deal on gear - I thought I might introduce myself and attempt to contribute a little bit.

No military or LEO experience, I've been shooting for about 14 years and I owned and operated a gun shop for a while.

I used to be all about speed shooting, lots of pistols with compensators, pistol caliber carbines, etc.

Recently I started getting into precision when I took a LPVO on a rifle and tried to make some groups at 100 yards and realized I really had let my accuracy get to shit.

I hope to learn a lot here.

LMT 16” 7.62 SS barrel

MAYBE 120 rounds through it.

Surefire MB installed

$600 shipped

No trades

So to start with I am running a 20” WC barrel with a .850 dia section at the GB. I am using a SLR adjustable GB with screws on the bottom with a SLR Ion handguard and there is very minimal clearance. Enough to fit a dollar bill through, or maaaaaaybe two bills stacked together. I do from time to time get fliers and yes I know this happens or it was just me pulling the shot.

So my queation is this. I could remove the material from the bottom of the gasblock to make more room, or have the barrel turned down to .750 and run a new GB. I just don’t know if I tune down the barrel if that will affect the accuracy of the barrel.

And before anyone says it, yes I called SLR and spoke with a very unfriendly and not helpful tech guy that said he has never seen any clearance issues. I’m not saying I know more than these guys, I’m just trying to get my coyote rifle dialed in and to eliminate all the OCD issues that might exist.

Let's see how well this ages.

The inhabitants of the Silo are under the impression that they are in a post war safe haven. They live there after 'the rebellion' was defeated, and in the process, Earth was basically made un-livable due to said conflict. Initially the storyline wants you to focus on other things...but...I'm calling it now:

- Silo is actually a self sustaining 'prison' colony
- Conflict / earth all fucked up is bullshit and a total lie
- Earth is habitable
- Silo inhabitants are actually the losers of the conflict
- Winners are topside - OR - even more diabolical, the Silo is 1 of 1000s and its a way for the rich to basically make all of the consumers/poors live in a giant hole in the ground and not have to deal with them

Any reason I’ve hardly seen anyone use one? Reading and watching a couple reviews everyone seems to knock the price. Searching on Gunbroker I can find a fixed stock for $700 and a folder for $750. Seems a little more fair on the wallet. Any other reason I don’t see anyone use them?

I’m in the market for a couple new actions. I’m considering the ti3 for NRL hunter. I hear a lot of negative about Titanium actions being rough in general. Very little about the Ti3 specifically. Would love to hear feedback from people that have owned one.

150$ tyd.

Before anyone asks about the primers…. No.

Zelle Venmo or check. I’ll look at trades, knives, mags, projectiles, plate carriers/chest rigs etc

Looking for brake only. New or Used. Both 1/2-28 and 5/8-24 thread. PM if u happen to have one or a few for sale.

Got my new ar 10 today and decided to check the trigger pull. Like most things I over thought it and decided to use some snap caps. The ones I have must be POS because now the paint has peeled off them and there is some on the extractor etc.. What's the best way to clean it out or should I just do a normal cleaning and go shoot the damn thing?

Hello all!

I am selling this lovely GAP PPR in LH - it is built on a Defiance Action in 6mm Creedmoor chambered by GAP. The barrel has 445 rounds on it as of now and is in amazing condition.

Typical GAP accuracy - I shot a 3.9" 5-round group at 500 yards from kneeling off a barricade!

Only, and only reason I'm selling, is that this was a backup rifle that another (very cool) user sold me. I have now acquired another backup rifle in my usual caliber of 6.5 CM.

Price is $2400 shipped and insured! No accessories included (bipod, mag, scope, etc etc).

Thanks so much - and please reach out with any questions!


PS: See below for the OG listing! I have shot 100 rounds since then.
