    Need Help Selecting an 18" DMR Barrel

    I can agree with that logic to some extent. In terms of the question "will the extra $1k or 2k for this XYZ optic be the difference between a hit and miss practically speaking", I believe in 99% of the cases, the answer is no. To that extent, IMO there is a difference in the mechanical...

    Need Help Selecting an 18" DMR Barrel

    Thank guys. Another question. Will something like a Lilja or Shillen Barrell which are in the $500-$700 range print noticeable tighter groups (Assuming I do my part), than those above. The WOA, Ranier, and Wilson are already pretty Primo.... Them again once I look a leap from buying a vortex...

    Need Help Selecting an 18" DMR Barrel

    Hey there hide members. I am finalizing the selection process for a new barrel that I am looking to install on an 18" DMR Set-up. I would consider my shooting skill level to be mid tier to semi advanced in terms of marksmanship fundamentals and ability to put together solid groups at 100 yards...

    Custom Cut Rifle Cases (Show Em)

    So as I layout my setup for a new rifle case cutting, was curious to see how others have layed out their gear. Show us what you have!! Also feel free to name the parts/gun list that's in your setup. My planned setup: AR15 with a 16" Upper Samson Rail holosun red dot burris AR Tripler 3x...

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta 3-15M review

    Great point and a component of the scope that I realized only after taking it out on the range. The Parallax is extremely easy. To the point of basically being able to set it and forget it. I basically set it close to Infinity and the picture is sharp from 200 yards onward.

    Bolt Locking Issues Question

    I have fired probably around 2000 rounds through the lower. It is a separate upper. The upper has seen 250 rounds. Had issues day 1 with it. That's why I thought it might be the gassing or bolt.

    Bolt Locking Issues Question

    On one of my semi-auto 18" 223 AR's, the bolt seems to have a hard time locking when cycling the next round. It happens with a few different types of ammo that I have run through it but not all. To temporarily fix the issue, I either put the charging handle back slightly to give it another kick...

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta 3-15M review

    Here are the two rets side by side. Not the best quality. Tried to take using my iphone while supporting the rifle.

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta 3-15M review

    Not to derail the conversation towards IOR but Interesting you reference the IOR as a comparison. They seem to get a pretty bad wrap on this forum for quality Control issues. I dont have any first hand experience so cant comment. Perhaps it stems from earlier Gen IORs. I have always wanted to...

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta 3-15M review

    I really like the H59. Not really cluttered IMO as most other people seem to comment. What's nice is that there is a floating dot in the middle as well as at every 2 mil marks.

    I was the one who snagged it. Haha. Could't pass it up and knew it would fly off the shelf.

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta 3-15M review

    I have been comparing the TT315 next to my S&B 3-20. I live in a high-rise building where I can see other buildings, the port, rooftops, and pedestrians at all types of distances (50 yards to several miles away). To that extent I will get the best part first, the "glass". The Tangent Theta does...

    Rifle Scopes S&B 3-20 PMII vs March 3-24

    I have the S&B 3-20 with the MTC Turrets and 59 reticle. IMO it's one of the best scopes I've ever owned. This coming from having owned the NF Beast, Kahles 6-24, S&B PM ll 5-25x. Pros: - Great eye box. Really easy to get behind when needing to take a shot from awkward positions. - Glass is...

    H59 Reticle Question

    Just got a S&B 3-20x with the H59 Reticle. After reviewing some articles and tech specs, apparently the staggered hash marks located at the top of the reticle Allow for quick ranging of 12" targets out to ~600 yards. My question is: Aside from steel targets, what practical measurements in...

    Barrel Selection Question: Contouring and Rifling

    Guys really great insight. Thanks for providing such detail. As Supersubes mentioned the Manufacturer websites are filled with excellent information. The information on the website combined with the explanation here help a lot in connecting the dots. I would always get confused when certain...
