    First gun for an old dog looking to learn new tricks

    Personally I would say spend $1000 and do a three day Precision Rifle training course, and shoot a loaner there. While money might not be an issue, it will make everything more enjoyable for you. I highly recommend Brian Whalen's level one class at Blue Steel Ranch. THEN you will know what you...

    Rifle Scopes Is the S&B PMII 5-25 still relevant in today's market given all of the options out there?

    Love my S&B PMII with MSR. I looked at the Tremor3 but chose the simpler MSR reticle. Very happy with it, very easy to see trace. Maybe the biggest revelation for me is with the parallax. For anything beyond about 300 I just turn it to infinity and forget about it. Was down at Blue Steel Ranch...

    Sudden 6 Mil Dope Shift? Stumped!

    Thanks for the idea, but I already checked those... I can't find a torque setting for them, but they are just past finger tight with a small hex wrench. Anyone know a torque value for the RTZ set screws?

    Sudden 6 Mil Dope Shift? Stumped!

    Fuck. I assumed I was doing something wrong, didn't even cross my mind that this $3000 optic would be defective.... Have initiated a return on it... Thanks

    Sudden 6 Mil Dope Shift? Stumped!

    Hi, I don't post here much, and I feel like this is a stupid question, hence posting it here. I have an AI AT in 6.5 CM, 24" bbl. Before I went to the range today I had 765 rounds through it. It shoots well, best shooting rifle I've ever had. Each day I go out I shoot a cold bore shot at 100...

    Zero on cold gun or hot?

    I realize this post is a few months old, but I have a similar question. On my AI AT 6.5CM I am getting a very consistent cold bore offset of almost exactly .5" at 3 o'clock right. After that shot the zero is pretty damn dead nuts. I don't need one round accuracy, I shoot paper and steel so it...

    I just use the 'portrait mode' in the iPhone. I also use adobe Lightroom for iPhone to process photos. I'm a photo geek... yeah, got sick of buying parts, bedding, changing things, trying make things fit/work, etc. When faced with the cost of having Mile High do that work for me it made more...

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    Hi Everyone, after spending a lot of time (and money) trying to make solid rifles out of stock Remington 700s I gave in and bought an AT in 6.5 CM. I had looked at MHSA's gunsmithing prices for truing, rebarreling, this 700 6.5CM I had and I said fuck it. I prefer shooting over fucking with (and...

    Really right stuff????

    Hey MPHREALLYRIGHT STUFF, thanks for being on this thread. I have been wanting to try your Vyce system. I already have video gear and leveling bases for that gear on a 75mm bowl/tripod. I'm just looking for a clamp that will thread onto the 3/8" center post on my bases that I can dovetail VYCE...

    Photos 'Snipers' in Aleppo, Syria.

    I've head the 'crack' many times before, and this time I wasn't particularly worried about how close they were. I've heard rounds crack right by my head VERY loud, and these were just sort of of in my general direction. But honestly it sounded like the buzzing was close, and I'd never heard that...

    Thank you. My new work isn't up there yet, I'll post links when it's published. Til then I can't post anymore pics. I use 5dMkIII's with a set of L-Primes. I process mostly in ACR, with a little retouching in photoshop if I need to push/pull dodge/burn. EDIT: Also, here's a link to a story I...

    seriously, how did you know it was a t-62? I only knew because I was sitting inside the thing looking through the gunsight. As for the regime soldiers who shot at me, because they revealed their position in this building by firing on us some SRF guys got a fix on them and hit it with a 105 I...
