    Rifle Scopes Optic for Sig716

    Thanks, longshot2000! Unfortunately all the three scopes are way to expansive. At least here in Europe. Nevertheless, I keep your suggestion with 1-6 or 1-8 in mind!

    Rifle Scopes Optic for Sig716

    Thanks for your answer! I am definitly need to look for euro optics, but alot of foreign optics are available here as well, to a reasonable price. Even if I get a suggestion for an US-only scope, i can at least look for a substitute here. Beeing a big fan of IOR scopes (which are cheaper in...

    Rifle Scopes Optic for Sig716

    Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, I am troubling myself with the question which scope I should use for my Sig716 (.308 Win) since ages. When I ordered the 1-8x pseudo tactical Falke scope (see my improvised review here in the forum) I thought that's the best all-can-do thing for me. But it was not...

    Minimum load ratio

    So, after I was at the range I found out that my previous loads were much weaker as necessary. Quickload caluclated round about 50m/s (165fps) too fast. With this knowladge I could add some grans and was able to get a load Ratio of 80%+ with 12gr up to 13 gr. YEAH! To be honest, I feel much...

    Suppressors What's up with shooting suppressor wet?

    Hi! Curious like I am, can you please explain me why you recommend it with sub sonic round only and not with hyper sonic? Is there a technical reason? Or is it even dangerous? Thanks in advance!

    Rifle Scopes Review: Falke 1-8x26 pro

    Hi, I thought I share my opinion about that particular scope with you. After waiting round about 4 month to get it, I wanted to use it on my SIG716. But I won't and here you will see why. (As I said, just my thoughts about that scope, feel free to disagree). Let's start with some technical...

    Minimum load ratio

    Thank you all for your replays! Next week I hopefully have the chance to shoot over a chronograph, I don't have one on my own (yet). I think I will load from 11 grain upwards to see up to where I am still sub sonic. Hopefully one load brings a good result. (9gr will be tested again.) ...and...

    Minimum load ratio

    I was on the range today an I tried 220gr Sierra round nose bullets loaded for an OAL of 69mm (2.7165"). Rifle is a Ruger American Predator with 18" barrel and 1:10 RH twist. (Smallest volume ratio was 65% due to quickload) I did not shoot suppressed, because I was only looking if the bullets do...

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    Tasmanian Tiger DBL Modular Rifle Bag. It holds two rifles at least. Sometimes I put my VZ58 sub compact in the big outside pocket and the Glock in the small one additionally. Great to carry on your back as well.

    Minimum load ratio

    Hello all together! I am trying to load some .308 subsonics with Trail Boss. Loading too less powder is gernerally considered dangerous (and I don't question that!), but what is the minimum load ratio you would go for / feel save? I mean how much volume (V%) of the case should be filled at...
