    White background option?

    Does the new website makeover have an option to go back to the white background instead of this new black backdrop? I find it absolutely miserable on my eyes and can't read the threads anymore it's so painful. I stopped reading rokslide a long time ago due to the eyestrain. Thanks

    Rock River Arms 17 HMR

    I'm eagerly waiting for their uppers. I have 2 17 hmr's and have shot thousands of P'dogs over the years with them. My latest is an 11" Alexander arms AR shooting 17g H vmax at 2630fps. Absolute tack driver and maneuverable on my side by side. I also have a 16" bear creek arsenal upper in 22mag...

    Some Advice on the SCAR 20s

    Two separate sentences. .4 was @100y. I shoot 1200y at a 2ft plate. Also, I can't say it would give a .4 over 10 shots. I have a hard time shooting groups over 5 at a time due to my form breaking down and anxiety creeping in trying not to spoil the group. But I have had quite a few 5 shot groups...

    Some Advice on the SCAR 20s

    Probably just softer recoil/ejection. My biggest improvement was cutting it down from 20" to 18". Accuracy improved and handling is superb. I've made hits out to 1200y and just sighted it in last week and drilled the last 4 shots in a .4 inch group. Scars aren't perfect, but they check more...

    Some Advice on the SCAR 20s

    I've got a scarburator gen 3 on my mk20 308. I think it works fine. I also bought a discarder last month to put on my other mk20 6.5. I had to send it back as it was too big to fit in the gas block bore. Horrible quality control. I plan to order up another scarburator in the gen4 this time.

    The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!

    Only sling I find tolerable is a biathlon sling. I'm pretty sure mile high has them. It rides like a back pack so if you packing gear it kind of gets in the way of that. I hunt light as I never leave my property so it's great for that. I hunt primarily with a scar 20s and occasionally a TRG 42...

    Looking for a 6.5 or 308 patterned rifle NOT ar10

    Take a look at the new PWS UXR coming out soon. You can make it a 223 to 308 in minutes. Nice light weight too.

    The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!

    Thanks, I have a friend that custom chambered 3 barrels with a shorter lead to allow Berger's to seat deeper in the case neck. I'll see what his COAL turns out to be. Certainly shorter than it is now.

    Any one know the oal capacity of the 300 PRC magazine? I'm looking at a custom barrel chambering and want to know if it will fit.

    The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!

    Go back and read my posts on page 47 in this thread. The trigger is stupid simple and you can carefully file out the creep and replace the second stage spring. You will be responsible for making it safe functioning.

    Some Advice on the SCAR 20s

    I've been shooting scars since 2012 and have had excellent accuracy and reliability. I've taken deer and elk with all three 17s, 20s 308 & 6.5cm. I've never had optic failures. My 6.5 wears a ZCO 4-20x50. I had issues with my 6.5 blowing primers and FN responded quickly and had my rifle...

    Buying a .308 semi. What do I have to consider other than a SCAR 17?

    I've put cans on all my scars. No issues. If you have a problem put the oem muzzle device back on and send it back. I am partial to my 18" chopped gen1 20s. Out to 1200 yards for targets and elk cows out to 300 makes it pretty versatile. Otherwise, I'd probably get an lmt mws. I love the mrp's.

    WF Happened to Drudge

    Citizen Free Press has exploded in popularity since drudge's demise. Very similar and shows prominent tweets as well.

    The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!

    Awesome to hear. Just test the function a lot to make sure it's safe. I always test fire to get used to the pull weights before firing. My second stage is set reasonably light so you can pull right through it if your used to another 2 stage trigger. I dont know if you filed any travel out of...
