    Accuracy International AT-X

    @RUN8 did the boltface or firing pin get etched? Was there evidence on any of the spent cases of leakage around the primer, or piercing? If factory ammo were etching AI parts, I'd be very vocal with the ammo manufacturer. If the Federal ammo is leaking or setting the primer back it is worth...

    Got your tin foil hat?

    I heard that audio played on the local AM news very early the morning after, and never again.

    700 PSS??

    That is not a correct statement. My '94 Sendero I bought new is not fluted. Actually, the one I have is a replacement for the original pos that Remington got back a third time due to a very roughly cut chamber that they tried to polish out. They were talking about cutting it back and...

    It is interesting that the short upper gun is on the old action.

    Accuracy International AT-X

    I am glad to have gotten the discounted, archaic, pre-bulimic, AT-X. It will do just fine for my use. I would like one of the new short versions, 16.5" 308 win, why not?

    The AT-X MIL is showing the 16.5" barrel option. No pics of the required short upper.

The video below is of a container ship that suffered an explosion a few years ago off the port of Colombo, Sri Lanka)"...

    Rifle Scopes 1/8 minute scopes

    To clarify, I have yet to shoot it in a prone match on the RPR. I have shot it on my budget .223 F-T/R rifle in place of the normal Weaver T-36 and found it an improvement.

    Rifle Scopes 1/8 minute scopes

    What you are describing is exactly why the next finer graduation is useful. I have shot on the smelly, coat wearing, end of the line, with Denys over in the belly benchrest crowd, and value his input and experience and that of everyone else there. A lot of their off hand comments have improved...

    Looks more like an AT that they skimped on by leaving out the skins. But first, they chopped and lowered it to make a low rider.

    There are some manufacturers that have figured this out and are producing Dual Plane Reticles.

    Do you guys prefer MIL or MOA?

    Make this easy, when shooting, it is angular displacement. When we are ranging, we care about the flat distance from one side of our target to the other. Which, for pedants, is less than the arc length. Also, don't mix units. An 18" torso is .4572 meters. (or .5 yards, but, no) If your scope...

    Long Range Near Houston,TX

    You can shoot matches without being a member. Sign up and go to the Mid-Range and/or Long-Range match every month, 24 matches a year. The last few years, the Mid-Range has been 600 during the cooler months, out on a berm, and 300 when it gets hot, under an awning. The 1000 yard line is under a...

    Do you guys prefer MIL or MOA?

    When you hold or dial, you are making a correction that is an angular displacement. The easiest way to see a simple demonstration of why using milliradians as the unit of measurement makes the most sense is to search how to find or compute arc length. You will find that, using radian based...
