    ARC Coup de Grace Builds

    I saw someone else mention that the ball handle was too short for faster shooting: https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/arc-coup-de-grace-builds.7173019/post-11069421.

    ARC Coup de Grace Builds

    Any deets on that swept ball handle? By the sounds of it, the standard ball is too short, but that thing is giving me serious AI/Tempest/Sterk vibes.

    Quality Chamber Job - Smith Recommendations

    +1 on Preece Precision -1 on Blue Mountain Precision - I know a few guys who've had bad experiences with their barrel life from blue mountain.

    Rifle Scopes Baddest 10x scope???

    Preparing to be gas lighted... USO FDN + piggy back RDS. I wish that USO would update their 10x reticles, but the gap reticle is alright for a 10x on a carbine. I like my FDNs.

    6mm BRA

    Has anyone tried dtacs in the bra? I shot out my first barrel with 105s at 2783 fps, and I'm fine with slower speeds in 2025. Seems like most people talking dtacs were hot rods looking for 2950+ speeds and "couldn't get up to speed" before hitting pressure. I'm just fine with 2750-2825...

    One Piece Scope Mounts ..What do you use?

    Anyone using Eratac? I know it's a pretty niche use for ELR, and you can just get 20 MOA built in to your mount and rail, and most scopes have plenty of internal travel, but... I want my current scope (maxes at ~18 MRAD on a 20 MOA rail right now) to be able to take me out to a mile more often...

    PRS bino choice for 2025

    Are these going to be your first binos, or are you getting your forever binos? I've been using Athlon Cronus 15x56 for the last six years, and they work pretty well. Of all the PRS gear that needs updating, binos and my tripod were some of the last to get upgraded, as other gear tended to yield...

    Finally got the new US Optics TXH 3-18x50

    With a better reticle, I'd have considered buying one at $699. That's about standard nowadays for a Chinese made LR scope from Bushnell, Vortex, and Athlon. JVCR/MHR would have been a solid win on this though. Heck, what they're currently offering looks fine if they had consistent spacing...

    Finally got the new US Optics TXH 3-18x50

    I wish they'd put it in the FDN 10X. My biggest complaint with my FDN 10X and MR-10 is the GAP reticle is a bit thick, but more especially, I want a floating center dot.

    Finally got the new US Optics TXH 3-18x50

    I'm admittedly a USO fan boi. I love my FDNs. I like my MR-10. I love the JVCR. But no matter how much of a fan boi I am, I will never defend their use of those crap reticles. I was tempted to get one as a budget scope and toss it on a .22 or a truck gun, or even keep as a back up for funzies...

    Most accurate mk12 barrel?

    I just got one of these and am converted. There was a noticeable difference in recoil when shooting suppressed.

    New Kahles K328i

    ThEOE800 pretty much summed up my thoughts. My issue with the mk4 is a combo of the eye piece, erector ratio, and the price.

    New Kahles K328i

    If not having it look like a pocket trumpet or limit mounting choices means it has to be a 5-25 or 6-36, bring it on. The strongest selling feature of the k328i hasn't been its erector size, form factor, etc. Kahles' competitive advantage here is the FOV. I have zero complaints with my 5-25...

    Rifle Scopes Optic to replace Bushnell XRS3

    Can you talk the euro optic guys down, or are their published prices pretty firm? S&B at that price would be pretty stellar

    Sub-2500$ USED USED USED

    Does the ATACR have the best of the best of the better than the best glass like a ZCO or Tangent? No. But I'll take a MIL-XT and a 2% clarity loss over a ZCO with an MPCT variant or a Tangent with a Gen2XR any day. I don't care much for ZCO turrets either. They're great, but I like Kahles and...

    Sub-2500$ USED USED USED

    I'll add US Optics Foundation JVCR to the list. Street price is under $2k. Don't get any of their trash reticles though. Someone was smoking some poor quality weed with lead dust mixed in when the designed the MPR and MGR. Ordering with one of those is like buying a Raptor, but asking for the...

    Finally got the new US Optics TXH 3-18x50

    I'm sure they'd rather spend the extra time with QC, design solidification, etc. than launch a botched product early. I'm sure buyers would prefer it too, even if you get antsy.

    Would you get into 6.5 Grendel in 2024?

    I'm not a guy who buys factory ammo pretty much ever unless it's pistol - do people buy factory online a lot compared with in the stores? I usually see Hornady black and maybe 2 other hunting/plinking stuff on the shelves these days.

    6x47 Lapua

    I shot a 6.5x47L with 130 hybrids at the Hornady PRC last month. Recoil was harder, and I was out of practice, so it took me a full day to get my watch-down-range discipline back up to snuff, but it's mostly a training issue, and I've only shot 2 regional matches (with a gas gun) this year. I...
