    Larue .224 Valkyrie

    Could be a fun caliber for more varmit hunting folks that want a dedicated hunting AR. I will be interested in what the twist rate is to stabilize the 90gr stuff. Edit- I wonder how cheap the factory loadings will be compared to the 22 Nosler, as that could help determine what becomes a bit...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex AMG new reticle??

    I am liking the numbers on the outside of the reticle. As someone who is transitioning from the EBR-1, I get a bit lost in the christmas tree, so having the reference outside appealed to me. Maybe with time I could get used to it, but for now the SKMR3 reticle is calling my name, though this...

    Masterpeice arms 6.5

    The chassis is pretty awesome if you are doing PRS type stuff. Phil keeps adding stuff to "fix" problems/shortcomings he sees as a shooter in PRS. I played with a few of their rifles, and the chassis is ultra adjustable for a decent price point.

    Rifle Scopes Practical App, Mils vs MOA Video

    I always tell new folks, pick a scope that matches. The units, go with what your friends (that are dragging you into this dark hole of fun) use. That way their teaching/spotting will be easier to communicate with..

    Magnification vs distance

    A few variables to consider: -Target size -Color of target/background -target moving? -Type of position you are in -shooting for groups or just an impact? Shooting a big chunk of steel (20x40) at 1100-1200 meters is fairly simple at 10x when there is good contrast between the target and...

    Range Report 308/198gr Flatlines ELR in MT - results from field

    Is this a super long throated 308 chamber as well? Or in theory, could someone single load something similar (pending barrel twist rate)? Either way, fantastic experiment,really cool to see what can be done with a 308 with some outside thinking.

    Suppressors seems excessive bullet shift when shooting suppressed

    My Saker had a 1.3 mil shift down, 0.1 mil right on my 308. Consistent, so I didn't have a problem with it.

    question on AI

    Out of the MPA and CORE match's in the last two months, I saw one, AXMC. Then I saw four to six AX308's. Looking here on the Hide it seems like 6-6.5k for the AXMC's. Hopefully some of the more helpful folks will chime in shortly.

    Bagara rifles

    I will be dropping by with my wife, seems like their thread in the "local meetup" section did not get much of a response. Looking forward to see your facility.

    CURTIS AXIOM -The story behind it

    Chase- Love hearing the back story. It was great to see a few of your actions at the MPA match a few weeks ago. I am strongly looking at building a WTO Switchlug based rifle. Are there any plans to offer a 223 bolt in the future for the Axiom?

    Subsonic 7.62x39

    For AK's I have had two powders work. Accurate 5744 and IMR 4227 both will work. Ran it in conjunction with LR Magnum primers, and a 180 Sierra for that were .311. Stable to shoot through a can, and cycle the action. Quite the fun project. I don't have the exact numbers for powder charge, but I...

    I have to revise my RSVP because of my wife...because she wants to come too. So there will be two of us. Thank you once again for putting this on.

    Need prs action help

    From being an RO, the speed of bolt throw of 60 vs 90, pales in the the time spent between positions and settling into a stable position. Pick what feels awesome, and what you like the most.

    Curtis Custom Axiom Action???

    Joel, Any chance the Axiom will have a 223 bolt face available in the future? With the Switchlug, it looks like the perfect action to have multiple bolts and barrels (with a short throw to boot!)

    vortex fury HD range finding binoculars

    Looks promising, I wonder how well it will actually do on 20" plates at/beyond 1000m. If it can compete with the Kilos out to 1400-1500, They might get even more money from me (again).

    New to Sniper's Hide from AK

    Awesome to hear. Are you down in the Valley/Anchorage area or up towards Fairbanks?

    New bling from KRG

    That would be a great in-between the Magpul stock, and Manners/McMillan. More features than the Grayboe stocks. Time will tell though. Like you said, it will be a bit before Tikka inlets.

    Thanks for hosting one in AL. I will be coming from Columbus, GA, so a bit closer than your TN option. Look forward to seeing your rifles in person.

    New bling from KRG

    My hope is that is is lighter, and in the same ball park that the X-ray is in price wise. It will be tough to crack into the $900-$1300 "traditional" stock market, but a quality product could.

    Which Rings for 50mm Scope on Tikka T3 Tactical

    Lance, Is that an Manners EH1 by chance? If so, did you have to build up the comb at all to get a proper head position for your scope? Looking at a similar set up, trying to decide if I want the "A" version, especially with the extra cost and weight.
