    Why do we love the MK12 so much?

    No. It's a Burris FF3 in their 30mm mount. The top of the red dot body is planar with the top of the turret. As soon as you can peak over the top of the turret you can see the dot. ETA: the view through the dot for anyone interested.

    Why do we love the MK12 so much?

    I'm a fan of the 32mm. Although mine is the plain Mil Dot. Kinda wish I could get a MD 2.0, but I didn't like the Mil-R at 10X so I went with the Mil Dot.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns AIWB guys, need your input

    Mastermind tactics sells an AIWB pillow (AKA junk pillow) if interested. Pillows aren't for everyone. As I lost weight (going from 210 to 165) I found I needed as little volume as possible in the holster. https://www.mastermindtactics.com/shop?category=Wedges In general Mastermind makes some...

    .22 Rimfire Squirrel Rifles

    Cz 452 with form 1 can. Weaver 3-10 Mil Dot. Usually fed with Eley SSHP. Our season runs from mid August to end of Feb. I usually wait till it cools down, and then until I take 1-2 deer. After that I only hunt squirrels.

    How far would you shoot with a 2.5-10 power scope ?

    In good conditions the NSX 2.5-10 had worked well for me out to ~800 yards. It's mounted on a 16" AR and that's the absolute limit of that rifle/cartridge for me. The biggest limitation has been the simple mil dot reticle. 1 mil is pretty coarse and makes holding for wind challenging past 500...

    How far would you shoot with a 2.5-10 power scope ?

    This is looking through an NXS 2.5-10x32. silhouettes were larger than IPSC. The one 2mil left of center is ~800 yards IIRC, and the car is well over 1000.

    Driving gas guns

    I have a fraction of the experience of a lot of dudes here, but I've found using a sling pretty helpful on a gas gun. Even a regular old 2 point quick adjust. If you really cinch it down when getting in position it'll naturally drive you and the rifle together. I've found this particularly...

    Best Suppressor 11.5 AR Pistol?

    I'm using a Turbo K on a 12.5 5.56 and it's fantastic. Light weight, durable, and surprisingly effective for the size. The Turbo K is short enough that my 12.5 is still an inch shorter than my 16" carbine with a 3 port brake

    600 yds 14.5” ar? 10k Run and Gun

    I'm sure it's intended to be a surprise. Things I've seen at other events: - Wall climbs(anything from 6-9 ft high) - large a-frame ladder climbs - low crawls - slack line crossing - assorted obstacle courses (over, under, through, etc) - water crossings (could be knee deep or you can't touch...

    600 yds 14.5” ar? 10k Run and Gun

    Sounds like you're close to ready. The course is very hilly, and it will be more difficult than just running. Guaranteed you'll be climbing walls, doing low crawls, and other obstacles along the way. One other thing to keep in mind is the duration of the event. You might get stuck waiting...

    600 yds 14.5” ar? 10k Run and Gun

    Are you in GA? RBGC had a monthly "hunter rifle sight in" event that lets you shoot out to 600 yards and is open to the public. They alternate between a 200/300/600 high-power range and a metric steel silhouette range. Either would be good for you to get dialed in. I'm assuming this is your...

    Long Runs with CCW

    You'll struggle to find anything that is actually comfortable for long runs. I've been down this path before and asked for suggestions on forums, 99% of them were junk. Running means a lot of things to a lot of people. If you are actually running (as in <8:00 pace) for 4+ miles I don't...

    POI Shift based on left vs. right side of mag feeding... Fudd Lore or something to solve?

    Possible. I noticed some odd flyers a few years ago from my AR. Isolated it to a Gen2 20rd Pmag. This is 2 separate 3 shot groups on top of each other. The first round out of that PMAG would consistently have a different POI from the rest of the group. 1st round is just below the bull, next 2...

    Athlon Helos gen2 2-12x42

    It's a cool reticle, reminiscent of the new ATACR 1-8 design. I do wish they had extended the horizontal stadia to provide a half mil reference from center

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce "new" reticle for LPVO? FC-DMx

    The new ring, while less bold, is larger in diameter(4mil vs 2mil) which should help at 1x.

    Athlon Helos BTR Gen2 2-12?

    The 4-20 is also interesting. Makes me wonder: Midas Tac or Helos BTR Gen2?

    Criterion CORE series barrels

    I doubt it. I have a 12.5 1/8 twist that does just fine with 77 SMKs, 75 HPBTs, and 70gr TSXs. ETA: I don't have a Criterion 12.5". Mine is a BRT, but just stating that a shorter 1/8 twist barrel can still perform.

    Criterion CORE series barrels

    Nice. Interested to hear the range report and what kind of accuracy you can get out of it. Will you be using a can?
