    Rifle Scopes Opinions: Vortex Razor HD Gen II 3-18x50 (vs.) Bushnell DMR II 3.5-21x50

    I just sold my 3-18 Gen II and will be replacing it with another DMR II w/ H59. The weight savings is a huge selling point, and I can't tell a difference in the glass when I'm using it on steel or in a match.

    New - LaRue 6.5 Grendel Rifle

    MSTN I ordered the 6.5CM kit in FDE, but after looking closely at the pictures on LaRue's website, it looks like the upper kits that are being sold were not originally designed with LaRue's own lowers in mind. They look much more similar to KAC uppers. After seeing that, I think I'll mount the...

    Looking for .308 or .260 Build Input

    I'm running a 22" 260 gasser. Getting 2880fps with Berger 130 AR Hybrids and Re16. No pressure signs, brass is on its 5th cycle. Try beating that with your 6.5 Creedmoor gassers. Also, running KAC or LaRue mags will allow you to load a tad longer than 2.820.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex PST Gen II

    I ordered my PST Gen II 3-15 waaaaay back in December 2016. I received it two days ago.

    Looking for .308 or .260 Build Input

    18" .260 would be pretty cool in a gasser. Magpul UBR stock if you want to save a little weight vs the PRS but not have to deal with the wobble of a carbine stock.

    Knight's SR-25 ECC owner opinions, use at distance?

    ECCs have been released with both 1-11 and 1-10 twist barrels. If it's a newer ECC it probably has a 1-10. That being said, I don't think an ECC is an ideal F-class rifle. Mine is sub-MOA usually, but I really really have to work at it.

    Magazine recommendations for long cartridges?

    KAC and LaRue allow for the longest cartridge OAL.

    6.5 Creedmore AR Velocity request, AGAIN

    I'm running a .260Rem, but the velocities should be pretty similar. Out of my 22" 1-8 I've pushed the Berger 130 Hybrids up to 2880 with Reloder 16 without pressure. Hit 2910 with 123 Nosler CC and Reloder 16, but that load resulted in loose primer pockets. Nosler 140 CC and IMR 4451 got me 2780...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold Mk6 Illuminated TMR???

    I've got a Mk6 3-18 that I got in Nov '16, it's non-illuminated and has the small open-center w/o floating dot. Let me know if you can't stand your reticle and want to swap to non-illum. I'd kick in cash.

    Best precision stock

    PRS Gen3 is the best available right now. LMT makes a pretty good stock too that you can swap onto a carbine tube with ease. Luth is OK, but not in the same ballpark as Magpul and LMT.

    Want to know more about my KAC

    Cool rifle, but I doubt you'll get anywhere close to 3K considering all the wear there is on the lower. KAC's customer service is pretty responsive, but I am not confident they would cover you under warranty. Technically their warranty only covers the initial owner for 1 year. If you have...

    RL-16 130gr pills for .260rem

    I think you're more than safe starting at 40g. I think you'd be safe even starting around 41.5. In my experience the 130s seem to like around 42.5-43 of r16 / h4350 / IMR 4451.

    how accurate can a 7.62 gasser get

    16" gun is more than capable of hitting a 1,000 yard plate. I routinely beat up a plate at 1,008 yards at my home range with a 16" SR-25. I'd recommend that if you want to shoot that far out though, you look at something besides the standard 175SMK. 175 Matchburner, 175 RDF, 178 ELD-M, 185...

    RL-16 130gr pills for .260rem

    I'm running 42.9g of R-16 with a Berger 130 AR Hybrid in my 22" LaRue 260. Getting 2840fps, SD of 9.

    308 semi auto suppressed issues

    I know it is popular to hate on KAC, but I have four SR-25 rifles and run the KAC full size 7.62 can on all of them. They all run 100% with Federal Gold Medal Match, Federal Tactical Bonded, Speer Gold Dot, as well as all of my own loads using 175-class bullets and Varget, 4064, 4166, and...

    LaRue FDE 7.62 Heavy Barrel PredatAR

    One of these days I'll re-install the .308 barrel and try to outshoot the test target. I'm sure its capable of it.

    LaRue FDE 7.62 Heavy Barrel PredatAR

    Put in a 22" .260rem barrel and hit the range this morning. JCIN took all the excellent pictures. First rounds out of the gun were to get on the paper, and once I was close I shot a three round group at the bottom orange sticker. Those three rounds, which were rounds 5,6, and 7 I think, printed...
