    Questions about zero consistency.

    345 rounds as of today. Bore snake after every session cleaned with brush and solvents last time at around 150. I'll get 100-150 rounds through it Wednesday so I imagine I'll have it all worked out.

    Questions about zero consistency.

    Questions about zero consistency. It would be hard to address all the variables I suppose. I'm going to take a day course at a long range shooting facility this Wednesday so hopefully I can address this question there. I unfortunately don't have enough opportunities to get on this gun as...

    Questions about zero consistency.

    Questions about zero and accuracy consistency. Thanks but that's not really what I was asking about. Im not under the impression that the temp change would affect the bullet flight at that range but questioning whether the gun and scope at a resting temp of about 60F would be expected to show...

    Questions about zero consistency.

    1: Is it common to need to make small zero adjustments when shooting your rifle in different environmental conditions? I have a 20" Rem 5r .308 and zeroed it with FGMM 175 back in June when I was visiting family in WV. conditions were mid 90's temp, 80%+ humidity and 1300 ft elevation. Zero at...

    Finally scoped the LWRC SPR.

    Picked up a razor HD 1-6 JM on here recently from another hide member. Threw it on the old LWRC and got a good 200 yard zero on it today and I'm pretty pleased with this rifle. Until I got this scope I had only kept a red dot on it and shot it in a training class, a match, and just fooling...

    Rifle Scopes swfa sniper scopes

    The "SS" scopes are pretty nice for the money. Decent glass and decent turrets. I've had a couple of the 6x scopes and they worked just fine. If $300 is your maximum budget they are probably a good bet. If it were me though I'd save a little more money and buy the 3-9 model with the FFP Mil...

    Getting banned from ARFcom

    I'm sure there are a few of those types around, ya'll know what I mean.

    Getting banned from ARFcom

    This shit's hilarious. It's funny how many people get booted from a few other sites. I've run into a lot of douches on a few other gun forums I've tried but I've got to say the Hide has been the best resource for me since I decided to build a rifle up and start shooting at longer ranges. The...

    9 year old girl unintentional shoots and kills instructor with machinegun in Arizona

    It's a shame there's not an IQ test for gun instructors. That was just flat out stupid on his part and he clearly had no business instructing a child on a machine gun. It's a shame he died from his own stupidity but better him than the little girl. The last time I heard about one of these...

    Getting banned from ARFcom

    Ha ha, this is some good shit. I guess everybody fucks up at a forum at some point if you participate and aren't a total nut hugger. I'm sure you can fuck up here too but from what I've read there are a lot more adults here that can take a little shit talking and dish it out without crying to...

    Getting banned from ARFcom

    So I lurked for a while over there checking out the LaRue forum and watching the shipping update threads and such since I ordered a rifle. I never felt like there was anything to add before but I recently started to participate a little. That lasted about three weeks and I got myself banned. I...

    LMT .308 MWS

    Sounds great. I guess I just need to get behind one some time.

    LMT .308 MWS

    So what's the deal with these rifles and their accuracy? I've been wanting a .308 AR for a while now and these look very good but I read widely varying accounts of their accuracy. Everything from sub .5 MOA reliably to barely able to get MOA at 100 yards. I shot a LaRue PredatOBR 16" 7.62 and...

    LaRue Tactical Stealth Upper Wait Times

    LaRue hit a brick wall almost 2 years ago when they started trying to transition over to building their own barrels in house. FWIW their new match barrels seem to be pretty nice and it seems like they've got their manufacturing all worked out. I've got a 7.62 PredatOBR on order and several of my...

    Suppressors Where do I start?

    Is there a particular way to name the trust? I've read a lot online about just using your last name "Last Name" Trust. That's how mine was done but a guy I work with said he sent his in like that and it got kicked back and he had to put his full name on it. He sent in his paperwork for his...

    Rifle Scopes LASIK eye. Surgery & long range

    I'll echo eveyrone else with a good experience. I had 20/200 and went to 20/15 after surgery. I had it about seven years ago and as I get older I can't focus from near to far nearly as well. It has been so awesome that I'd pay for it every year if I had to. I work with probably 9 or 10 people...

    Suppressors Where do I start?

    Thanks for the tips. I decided to go with David Goldman for my trust. It cost a couple hundred dollars but from what I can tell it includes all the important provisions mentioned as well as coming with a detailed set of instructions for making the NFA purchases. I also decided to follow his...

    Rifle Scopes Am I crazy?

    I don't know about the Steiners but I think my 5-20 SS is a really impressive scope for the money. I compared it to a friends NF Mil Spec that everyone was buying a couple years ago and we both felt the glass was easily as good to our eyes and I think the build quality on the SS is exceptional...
