    Caldwell AR-15 Brass Catcher Review - A cheaper alternative

    The Caldwell AR-15 Brass Catcher is a nylon and mesh bag that attaches to the side of your AR-15 by a velcro strap. It keeps its shape by means of a metal wire inner frame. However the frame only keeps the mouth of the bag open. It does nothing to support the top of the bag. Initially the bag...

    new mega build fails go gauge but champers round?!

    Then your rifle is fine. Go shoot it. To get an exact measurement you need to remove the ejector AND extractor. I will sometimes fudge it if I am trying to save time, but if I have any question I go back and remove the extractor and ejector and check it again.

    Mega Arms MATEN Build Series

    I will be down there a little later in July. Hoping to see how well the MATEN shoots out to extreme ranges.

    Mega Arms MATEN Build Series

    This barrel isn't nitrided. It's 416R and black oxide finished. One interesting point though is that Rainier's website says they are 5R, however our barrel only has three lands and grooves. Not a big deal as this can actually assist in getting more velocity and less bullet deformation. We are...

    new mega build fails go gauge but champers round?!

    This. If the barrel was chambered to accept .308 and 7.62NATO then it may fail (close) the .308 no-go. In our MATEN build series I went into detail on checking the headspace.

    I am going to try to get to it next week. Since that will be almost totally on the range, I need to plan it while the range isn't packed.

    Atlas Bipod on concrete

    If you are "loading" it to the point the legs are rolling out, you have gone too far. Use less pressure. You are not trying to push the rifle down range.

    Basic AR-15, with 4X acog? One of my "favs"

    RELIABLE optics have merit. Irons do as well. Most important is knowing your weapon, it's strengths and limitations. I was issued an ACOG back in the day. I also qualified expert numerous times with the A2 irons. The M16A2 still holds a fond place in my memory. Possibly why I built a...

    VIPER SKINS - Pro's and Con's

    They are great. The drawback for the AE is that you have to pay attention to what screws go where. I like that they are fewer pieces than the new AI skins. The rail kit for the Viperskins works great too! Victor Company USA Viperskins Review (Accuracy International) - YouTube

    tracking point, this thing is cool

    HAVING USED IT, I will say that I believe the technology has merit. However it is in it's infancy. It has a way to go before it's ready for prime time (military use). I don't think it really has a place in LE work since engagement ranges make wind and elevation holds minimal. What I like about...

    Ready to order AI AE MKIII 308

    Don't mess with it. Use the AI base that comes on the rifle. Bolt on your HDMR and shoot. The HDMR should have enough elevation to get you to 1K on a flat base. If for some reason you find it doesn't then you can go looking for a solution. My AE MkII still has the flat base it shipped with.
