    Alternatives to FGMM 175 gr, .308

    Re: Alternatives to FGMM 175 gr, .308 As it turns out, the much beloved Cheaper Than Dirt now has the 308M2 load in stock for $20.40 a box, so I ordered 35. That gives me 250 rounds for practice and the 450 needed for my upcoming class. I have seen two different labels on 175 grain loads...

    Alternatives to FGMM 175 gr, .308

    Re: Alternatives to FGMM 175 gr, .308 That is the "7.62 load" at CTD, and I don't know what the difference is between that and the .308 load. My guess is that the 7.62 load is lighter so you don't bend op rods on M14s. I don't know if that would make a differnce. <div...

    Alternatives to FGMM 175 gr, .308

    I am going to be taking a class shooting my LMT MWS with a 16" CL barrel up to 600 yards. I am having trouble finding the FGMM 308M2 load, that is the .308, 175 gr. SMK, for a reasonable price. I am, however, finding some of the 762M2 load which is spec'd as a 7.62 round. That makes me think it...

    Help a noob prepare for precision rifle class PICS

    Re: Help a noob prepare for precision rifle class Great advice. So now I have follow up questions. 1. What is a good data book? I saw this one (fourth one down) at Brownells. 2. What is a good ballistic calculator for an Android. I don't mind paying for a good one. Thanks, Andy

    Rifle Scopes How to properly set up eye relief on a new set-up

    So I have my Remington 700, Bushnell 4200 3-12x44, Warne 1 PC, 20 MOA Picatinny rail and Seekins medium rings. I read the FAQ on leveling the reticle, but I didn't see anything on setting up the eye relief. I plan to shoot primarily from 100-600 yards. I will initially use a 100 yard zero, and...

    Rifle Scopes New Guy - Just bought a Bushnell Elite 4200 3-12x

    Re: New Guy - Just bought a Bushnell Elite 4200 3-12x I just got mine from Natchez last night and maybe I was just lucky, but both the elevation and windage turrets have very distinctive increments. They are also very smooth in rotation. The clicks are somewhat audible, but as long as they...

    Rifle Scopes Where to currently get the Bushnell 3-12 mil/mil?

    Re: Where to currently get the Bushnell 3-12 mil/mil? Well, I have been hemming and hawing thinking that I should get a USO or NF scope, but this thread pushed me over the adge and I just ordered one of these Bushnells. For now, I'm sure it will work out. I also ordered Seekins medium height...

    Noob, Am I on the right track?

    I just got a Remington 700 VS in .308 in a trade. From what the prior owner said and the absence of a barrel date code puts it around a '99/'00/'01 production. It has a 26" heavy barrel and is 1:12. It has a bedded, free floated HS Precision stock. It came with a Bushnell 3200 10X-40 scope, 140...
