    2025 Tenet Midnight Madness Run and Gun March22

    It really is a nice place. They have a lot of steel and one of the longest rifle ranges in this area at 1550 yards. Staff is a good bunch of guys as is the owner, Pat. (He also ran the event again this year).

    2025 Tenet Midnight Madness Run and Gun March22

    Was another great match. This one was a bit more challenging for me, as they reduce points (added time) for C zone by 1.5 seconds and 3 points for D zone. 10 seconds for a failure to engage. I’m not used to this and it caused me to think about height over bore more but ultimately I still...

    Struggling with 5.56

    Varget, N140,RL15 are all going to be about the same. They will be compressed with a 77 or 69 SMK. You could roll or taper crimp. Not sure what size target you’re shooting but I’m taking my 14.5s to 500+ routinely on full sized IPSC steel. They hold good elevation, wind can be challenging if...

    Secret Service “JAR” rifle

    I hear you, but Carl, Norm, Ken and the guys from up there that aren’t “famous” are shooters. I bet they’d want to see them shot, but get it and ultimately it’s your gear. Shot with one of them at Perry in 2004.(last name started with E) Half his primers were duds. He had to take the cheek...

    Secret Service “JAR” rifle

    Well, you narrowed that down to one guy who would certainly know. :) Those who know, know. Been probably 15 years since I shot with Carl and crew at ORSA but I’ve never heard the guy you’re talking about called the great.

    Rejoice Americans! RFK confirmed.

    We’ll see, his family has a history when opposing seated power.

    Rifle Scopes Found deal on Night Force ATACR, have questions

    Not sure what you mean. I’ve had several fixed over the years. They put exactly what they did in the return receipt when they replace parts. I have had a couple come back NTF, but they worked upon return so who knows. Was it a broken scope or was it a shift in a set of rings over the years...

    Pam Bondi Just Surfaced this Morning

    I’ll believe it when I see people actually fired and brought up on charges. For now, this is just tough talk. Fingers crossed, but I have had the football pulled out far too many times to trust Lucy anymore.

    6.5x47L vs 6.5 CM in ar-10

    For me, it would be cost (brass can be cheaper) and feeding reliability.

    6.5x47L vs 6.5 CM in ar-10

    I have 2 bolt action 6.5x47s and if I was going gasser I’d bite the bullet and tool up for the creed. Cheaper brass I don’t mind losing or destroying. I also would feel more confident in the creed feeding. The 47 is a bit fat with little body taper and a very steep shoulder. The Creed seems to...

    FFP LPVO with most holdover points. MOA or Mil.

    I’m not sure any of the LPVOs do this. The illumination is basically to mimic a red dot at 1x. G3 is nice but not $2800 nice. Was under $1800 when I bought mine.

    FFP LPVO with most holdover points. MOA or Mil.

    I have the FC-DMx. For me, it’s usable at 6-8x. I might be able to use it at 4-5x but it would take some time and lighting would have to be right. I haven’t shot the FC-MOA yet but I am a MOA shooter (current MIL scopes is just to cross train) and it reminds me a lot of the NPR-1, which is...
