    F T/R Competition Starter rifle for possible F T/R shooting

    Re: Starter rifle for possible F T/R shooting In regards to the type of reticle, it is a question of personal preference. It is all good if you have quality glass with the strong enough magnification. The MOA standard seems to work better at known distances than MIL. We all have to hold...

    F T/R Competition Starter rifle for possible F T/R shooting

    Re: Starter rifle for possible F T/R shooting I've been pleased as punch with the STAG 6 that I set up for my daughter. I am impressed to hear of your success. Did you use your STAG at 600 yd? What load did you use? My current for 600 is 77 gr. Sierra MK with 24 gr. Varget.

    F T/R Competition Starter rifle for possible F T/R shooting

    Re: Starter rifle for possible F T/R shooting In regards to the NF type of reticle, if you are going to shoot F-Class and want to get mostly 10’s and X’s a MOA based reticle is a lot easier to deal with. When people help spot for each other they use MOA as a common point of reference...

    F T/R Competition Starter rifle for possible F T/R shooting

    Re: Starter rifle for possible F T/R shooting Denys, The 80gr. didn't work well with Vika's STAG. The barrel is a 1/8 twist and it appears that 77 is the heaviest I can go. See you at the next 1k. I hope we don't get rained out again. Regards, Tom

    F T/R Competition Starter rifle for possible F T/R shooting

    Re: Starter rifle for possible F T/R shooting I don't disagree with you, because I certainly understand the limitation of the .223 at 600 yards. My 11 year old daughter has not been able to shoot above Sharp Shooter with a STAG 6 at 600 yards, but 92% accuracy is just fine for a $600...

    F T/R Competition Starter rifle for possible F T/R shooting

    Re: Starter rifle for possible F T/R shooting If you have an AR the and a good piece of glass the cheapest way to start in F-Class is to buy a STAG 6 upper for around $600. I did it when getting my daughter set up to shoot F-Class T/R at 300 and 600. I get .35 MOA with my daughter's STAG 6...

    AR-10 Options / Opinions

    Re: AR-10 Options / Opinions After finances, the big questions is in weight? I have an Armalite Super SASS and it shoots under .5 MOA, but it weighs in at (w/ optics) 15lbs. I also have an Armaliet AR-10A4 which also shoots close to .5 MOA but it weighs 9 lbs and after 10 rounds the thin...

    F T/R Competition For the Houston FTR shooters

    Re: For the Houston FTR shooters The F-Class crowd at Bayou Rifles is a fine bunch. I've been shooting with them for over a year. It is such a good group that my 11 year old daughter is now shooting with them at 300 yards. She is using STAG Varminter upper and my Nightforce NXS and she is...

    What kind of accuracy could I expect from Steyr ?

    Re: What kind of accuracy could I expect from Steyr ? I use a Steyr SSG PII in .308 in 600 and 1000 yard F-Class Tactical Rifle matches near the Gulf in Texas. The only thing special I did to the rifle was put it in a McMillan stock. Using 175 gr. Sierra Match King and 45 gr. of Varget it...

    STEYR SSG 69PII Police

    Re: STEYR SSG 69PII Police The quick answer to the replacement question, if you are the original owner and ask Steyr nicely they may do it for free. I just got mine back last week. After mounting the replacement plastic and a new scope on my SSG PII, I went out to the range and shot .40...

    STEYR SSG 69PII Police

    Re: STEYR SSG 69PII Police This forum has been very helpful sharing info about the Styriaarms.com non-plastic trigger housing and magazines. Owning a SSG PII and SSG PIV I have enjoyed their tremendous accuracy (less than 1/2 MOA with Blackhills 168gr. BTHP). Recently I had a breakage in...
