    New 6mm Advanced Rifle Cartridge

    It's not a terrible optic, I have decided to throw one on a currently opticless 556 build. But to me it suffered at both ends, it's more like a 5-18x. Glass quality isn't up to par with the Leupy either IMHO. I've never been all that impressed with Eotech scopes so I can't be of much use there.

    New 6mm Advanced Rifle Cartridge

    I started with an 18" outfitted with a NF ATACR 4-16x42 and then I dropped down to a 14.5" with Razor 1-10x. That served me well for a season but I need more light gathering capability in the low light conditions I often hunt in so I just switched over to a Mk5 HD 3.6-18x. I haven't stretched...

    Yea I have a light fill bag I use on a tacplate for when they aren't clipped in and that light bag gives me concern for similar reasons. I really need to get a flat heavy fill rear bag for that use and keep the light fill bag in my hunting pack. I've been clipping the binos in lately with the...

    Damn! I usually place a heavy weight of some sort in my tripod sling in hopes of keeping it held down on high wind days. We've had the windiest spring in recent memory and it has been a concern for myself as well during recent range sessions.

    Precision Rifle Gear My first Ckye pod issue and some nice upgrades!

    It's definitely a "gamer" bipod. I haven't been shooting comps and I doubt I'll have any time this year to do so either. That said, I love this bipod, the speed at which you can deploy it and make adjustments is next level. Bug I agree, I question its long term durability and I doubt it'll hold...

    New 6mm Advanced Rifle Cartridge

    To each his own. I hunt in extremely shaded, tight cedar lined senderas where light fades quickly in the golden hour. I need a larger objective in order to get more light, no LPVO will offer that with their tiny 24-30mm objectives. I don't use my 6 ARC as an up close run and gun blaster while on...

    New 6mm Advanced Rifle Cartridge

    I hd considered the 2-10x but I was already running the Razor 1-10x prior and I simply needed a bigger objective for more low light capabilities and a better reticle for precision hunting. The 2-10x would be nice on my opticless 14.5" 556 build sitting around waiting for glass but it's likely...

    New 6mm Advanced Rifle Cartridge

    Latest version of the 14.5" 6 ARC. I hope this will be the last optic swap for a while.

    I feel for ya. I am having labrum surgery on my strong side shoulder in May. I'll be down for up to six months but most certainly the first three. Not looking forward to not being able to shoot or fly but the silver lining is that it's hotter than hell down here during the summer so I won't be...

    Are Electronic Levels Worth it?

    It's still that my man, recovering from unusual attitudes while under the hood or simply flying under the hood in general proves that what you perceive to be straight and level is often not even close. Always, always, always trust your instruments.
