    Replace AICS Spigot with Rail

    I dig the design of the pic model, but I will say the Big Dog Steel spigot system is sound, no play and locks up like a vault to a total of ~4" forward of the stock. It is a pig though, but some might see that as a more stable platform through more mass in a ELR scenario.

    Kahles Helia Rangefinder Binocular 8x42/10x42

    Eh, yeah, I have one of the older model Leica Geovid 10x42 HD-Rs cause I like the erogs better with big hands and I had to send it in for service after its first outing due to a seriously dim reticle, never heard of that complaint about them either, but they accepted them for service and said...

    Rifle Scopes *JUST RELEASED* Nightforce NX8 FFP 1-8x24mm 30mm Tube & ATACR F1 1-8x24mm 34mm Tube Models

    Your mount is on backwards in these pictures, you want the cantilever to hold the scope further forwards to increase eye relief.

    Replace AICS Spigot with Rail

    So in installing this, you just pushed out the two rolled metal dowels and the spigot assembly just slides out? Do the flush cups stay in place?

    Suppressors Thunderbeast thread style ?

    Well played, individual form 4's are about 7-8mos out when I was waiting, probably a good conservative guess...?

    Suppressors Thunderbeast thread style ?

    Hey, just answered this here with a bit of commentary and vids from Mr. Ray Sanchez of TBAC himself: Direct thread vs CB a la TBAC. If nothing else, more knowledge, you've already figured out who makes one hell of a can...

    Suppressors Ultra 9 Brake versus direct thread?

    This was a similar question that I asked TBAC when seriously researching am Ultra 9, which I now own spanning a .308 and .223 rig due to their CB brakes. I was told in an email conversation with Ray Sanchez of TBAC: "CB brake mount is the way to go for a precision rifle. Its a better mount...

    Rifle Scopes *JUST RELEASED* Nightforce NX8 FFP 1-8x24mm 30mm Tube & ATACR F1 1-8x24mm 34mm Tube Models

    Wicked. @jb1000br, would you happen to know if these come with the standard Tenebraex covers that come with other ATACR models?

    That'd be excellent, thanks! @KimberGuy did mention it starts tunneling around or beyond 7x, you mentioned this would be an issue as well. And now, I'll just chill out...

    BOOM, straight from the source, thank you sir! I say that as in this is great knowledge and the reason I joined the hide, the intersection of skilled practitioners from the field and with luck, deep within industry. On topic, may I ask your opinion on how you think the ATACR performed through...

    I hear ya, but I'm looking to eventually pair this with a Valkyre upper, Mmmm-mmm! Sweeeeeet... Like an almost 6.5 Creedmoor on a diet... Suffice to say, NF is smart jumping in this dual-pronged niche first, they will sell a "metric shit ton" of NX8s as an earlier post mentioned, the value...

    Rifle Scopes *JUST RELEASED* Nightforce NX8 FFP 1-8x24mm 30mm Tube & ATACR F1 1-8x24mm 34mm Tube Models

    I think in varied terms we agree, but I tried to sum up the "purpose built" into my "looking beyond the NX8" chop. I do however stray from your use case as I want the ATACR as a low power variable specifically for a .223 platform, for now... I 110% can agree that I'm also very much looking...

    I also appreciate your take @KimberGuy, thanks! I'm hoping that in a way the ATACR knocks the Razor 1-6x 'out the box, if for nothing else similar or better clarity through the range + FFP, but perhaps not. First thing I'll verify when I have all three is that the ATACR's glass can hang solid...

    Hey all, Northern Kingdom here, in Lebanon, NH... Was a member of Pemi, but with having to drive almost 3 hrs one-way to see the lady on weekends, I didn't have time to make it up there. Gonna try my luck at the club in W. Lebanon, anyone know anything about that one other than what the site...

    @Fenix Mike, could you possibly elaborate on this further? I've looked at NF's site and I guess this is just saying you'd rather have their ZeroStop tech (which I understand it's function) on the ATACR before you purchase, so it's somewhat of a deal breaker? Isn't their current design...

    Ditto, NX8 incoming here as well, I caved, the temptation of having a FFP proved too great as I have a JP that I plan on pushing way out so it'll no doubt help along with it's other purported strengths...

    RRS Anvil Ball Head ?

    Ah, tension, that's what I meant, tension-friction, bleh... Good to know, thought it was something like this, but thanks for clarifying. Might you be able to say when/if your QR Pic + RRS rail mod for Atlas bipods might appear?
