SOLD Eotech Vudu 1-8 HC3 Reticle

Eotech Vudu 1-8 HC3 in an Aero Precision ultralight mount.
This is an awesome LPVO is excellent glass clarity. It’s the first 1-8 LPVO that I’ve had that was executed well enough to be worth having a 1-8 vs 1-6. Easy on to get behind. I’ve taken my AR with it to the 1,000 yard range to shoot while my bolt gun barrel is cooling off. A few others have looked through it and were also amazed at the clarity on distance targets.

Only selling because I just bought a Kahles K18i.

$850 shipped with the Aero Precision mount.
$780 shipped with out the mount.

PVA Spring Group Buy Is Up

We kicked around how best to run a GB this spring for folks here and Ben and I decided to try a broader brush.

We're still doing 100 blanks available however we split them up based on the most popularly ordered options in caliber and twist rate this way guys don't have to worry about getting a 6 or a 30 or a 22, it's available.

Here is a link to the post I made in the Commercial Section

Here's a direct link to the Group Buy

We will run it until 3/21(Spring Equinox) or when all the blanks are gone, whichever is first.

Just got my Rexem Die blocks for the Frankford M-press! Amazing!

Quick product review folks. (supporting Aussies here shamelessly.)
I got an M-press and the die blocks were crap. It was the only thing that let it down.
I just got myself one of the first sets of the Rexem Australia Locking die blocks.
Holy moley are they good. Honestly, well worth the money. I've attached a picture.
I can't even measure my bump or seating variance now. They are rock solid!
They ship international too.

Thinking of building a new rifle and it looks like Foundation stocks are very popular and I am curious as to why. They look great, but have limited adjustability/customizability compared to a chassis.

Night Vision IR Tools - Easy Way to Heat Up Steel Targets Electrically

I've been playing around with these recently and they've turned out to work pretty well if you want to shoot steel at night and don't want to use a propane torch.

I spent a couple years struggling with shooting steel at night with various LWIR thermal scopes and clip-ons. The main issue that the spot where I often shoot longer range is out in the high desert with lots of rocks and sage brush, and unheated IPSC steel just tends to blend into the background or totally get lost unless I'm right up on it.

For a while I was using propane torches to heat up the steel so they would be easier to pick up with thermal, but it was a bit time consuming, I went through a lot of propane, and it often resulted in uneven temperatures across the target and wouldn't last very long on cold nights. Then I randomly stumbled on these electric heaters that you install onto the steel from IR Tools. It's not something you just put on/take off - you've got to install it with a thermal paste, so the heating element is permanently on there with a wired connection to the power source. They've got a few 12v/24v options to power them, including BA5590 bricks though I think that's too expensive and overkill unless you need them going for a very long time. Instead I got the cable with alligator clips and velcro'd some fairly inexpensive 12v 10Ah lithium batteries to the rear of the plates.

I did some initial testing in the garage and used a Skeet IRL to see how the plate heat up over time.

After just a few minutes the center of the front face of the target was glowing
1742772611861.png

Unheated steel to the left for comparison. By 10 minutes the entire heated plate was a uniform white.


Last night I did some tests with a Voodoo-S and detection was very easy, even out to 800 yards. For shits and giggles I did a comparison through MWIR so you can see unheated vs heated...

The heating is very minimal - they aren't even warm to the touch, but it's plenty for LWIR to get a solid color that stands out from the background. Those 12v batteries kept the targets heated for at least 3 hours in 50F weather.

Seating depth test, grouping interpretation and where do I go from here?

First, I apologize for the poor photo quality—I'm not too focused on presentation when it’s not crucial.
I’m a beginner shooter, this being only the sixth time I’ve shot, so my fundamentals may not be solid. That’s why I decided to test three different seating depths for each group. Based on my results, I see two clear contenders: G2 at 2.15" OAL and G3 at 2.16" OAL. I’m not sure if there’s anything else to be inferred from these groups.
For context, I’m shooting a Howa 1500 in 6.5 Creedmoor, using Berger 140gr Hybrids, CCI 450 primers, and 41.6gr of H4350 powder.
Given these results, which seating depth should I go with? Should I continue to refine in one direction or the other? I was originally loading at 2.115" OAL, but I noticed some inconsistencies at longer distances, which prompted me to run this seating depth test. It seems I was quite a bit off.

Thinking of rolling the dice on an Echo Timberwolf

Need a new saw. I have a late 80's 038 probably made in Germany (was my dad's). Time to let it sit on a shelf and take up space. Work we use newer Stihls, the high end saws are nice. The mid range take a dump constantly (throttles break all the time).

Looking at the Echo 620P. Would be used mostly for felling/bucking around the farm, might occasionally take on some extra work felling with a neighbor to feed his mill. 620P should be American made.

Most of my reading says they are a good tool. Not quite a pro saw but better than consumer (rebuildable, light weight/power). Compared to here, most places I have read do not suggest buying a Stihl or a Husky. Jonserd is nice, but no local dealers/parts suppliers. We have Stihl, and Echo here and TSC sells the cheaper Huskys.

New to forum + New rifle build

Hello all,

I’ve just joined the forum and I'm seeking some feedback on my latest build. I got a lot of ideas from viewing posts here so I thought I'd make an account and see what people thought of my own build.

Originally I really wanted to build a M24/M24A2 but as parts are becoming increasingly scarce, and next to impossible to source where I am, I opted for something that looks similar but was far more practical.

I was going for a Remington 700 Police look, with a different chambering and barrel length to better suit my needs.

The rifle is primarily for pest control, and built to be able to get in and out of vehicles without hassle.

I’m using Federal Premium 69gr BTHP in it at the moment, which I am aware is far from ideal for killing things, but I assure you when I hit them the head, the varmints that I am aiming at cannot tell you the difference.

The entire rifle is built upon a Remington 700 SPS Tactical 16.5” .223 1-8 barreled action, and the parts list is as follows:
  • Butler Creek Flip Up Lens Caps
  • Leupold MK4 3.5-10x40 LR/T M1
  • Talley 0MOA Picatinny Rail
  • TPS TSR 30mm S-Low Rings
  • Surefire SOCOM Muzzle Brake
  • Timney Elite Hunter Trigger
  • KRG Bolt Lift SV
  • HS Precision PST-012 Stock
  • Badger Ordnance M4 Floorplate
  • Triad Tactical Stock Pack
  • SAP Two Round Holder
  • Harris 6-9” S-BRM Bipod
  • KMW Pod-Loc Lever
  • Outdoor Connection Talon Swivel
  • TIS Slip Cuff Precision Rifle Sling

Gunsmithing I need help choosing BEST 300 Blackout in 10.5

Well while doing searches I run across either really old threads or barrels that no longer are made. I had my mind set on a Rainier Arms Ultra Match but it is only offered in 16" now. I then thought of Noveske but read some people that said for the money they are nothing to write home about. Not really interested in the cheaper brands (BA and Faxon). Centurion is a thought... I see WOA doesn't make a 300 Blackout barrel.
