    Lasik

    I make my living on the shotgun range, and crisp vision is super important to me.....I had LASIK done in '99. Before surgery I was 20/450 with astigmatism. I'm still 20/20 to this day.......LASIK was the best thing, besides divorce, I have ever done!

    308 bullet choice

    Rob, Thanks! I researched on the Hornaday website, and I see that my favorite bullet is BACK on the 2014 products production list( added on Jan 1 2014). Sorry if I added any confusion.... Best regards, Will

    Tikka T3 Lite in 7-08

    I just put together a T3 in 7/08 for a client( he requested the caliber)....recoil felt similar to my T3 in 308, until I switched to 120 gr bullets. Noticeably lighter recoil then, especially with a limbsaver pad installed. However, last year I set up a T3 for another client, this one chambered...

    308 bullet choice

    I've had great performance out of 155 Scenar's and 175 SMK's, but my favorite is the temporarily discontinued Hornady 178 gr BTHP. Higher BC than the 175 SMK, and was easy to work up a load for my TRG22( Lapua brass and varget). Luckily, I've bought up enough of these bullets to last me...

    need a new chronograph

    I recently got the MagnetoSpeed, and the thing that I like the most, and didn't think of before I got it, was the ability to chrono anytime of day or night. I never realized how much I was always waiting for the "sun to be in the right place" so my old chrono would give good readings...

    Rifle Scopes Optical clarity: Bushnell 3200 10x vs. Weaver GST 3-10x40

    I've had both, and liked the Weaver slightly better. That being said, I like the 10x SS MUCH better, and have been slowly replacing the Weaver 3-10x40's with Mil/Mil SS's.

    In-Ear Electronic Protection questions

    I've been using ESP electronic plugs since 1998. I wear them nearly daily on shotgun ranges( thats where I make my living), but I also use them weekly on rifle and pistol ranges. The protection is excellent, and I find them comfortable enough to wear all day. The protection level is sufficient...

    Hornady and the 7mm 162 Amax

    Guys, My personal fav is on the list, the .30 Cal 178gr BTHP. Well, keep your eyes open......I have scored 2 purchases totaling 2500 bullets for that projectile here on the Hide in the for sale section. Your bullets are out there, you just have to hunt for them.

    Hornady 75gr HPBT accuracy

    I've actually had better luck with the Hornady 75gr BTHP than any brand of the 77 gr BTHP's. This is across several AR barrels including Noveske, Wilson Combat, and Rainer Select. The published BC worked for me all the way out to 800 yards. YMMV.

    Rifle Scopes Zero stops for SWFA Super Sniper Scopes

    Guys, Got my 3 shim sets....the shims are numbered(thickest to thinnest)....2,1,+1, +1/2,+1/4. This is not what you detail in the video. Did I get the wrong sets? I ordered shim sets for SS fixed MRAD scopes(n I have 2ea-10x and 1ea-12x). I went ahead and installed a set, and my scope had 20.1...

    Rifle Scopes New Optic From Bushnell, The LRHS

    George, As I said before, I'm in for at least 1 of these scopes, but I have a question if you don't mind answering? This scope being spec'd out for hunting, was there any thoughts towards an illuminated reticle? In the parts of the world where I hunt, I REALLY use illuminated reticles.... TIA...

    Rifle Scopes Fixed power magnification for rimfire trainer

    I have a couple of other variables....I have a oversize bolt knob on the gun, which means I needed taller rings. I used a set of NF Med. rings I had laying around, and they work fine. Best, Will

    Rifle Scopes I have 8-900 to spend on a capped turret hunting scope

    I love the Trijicon 2.5-10x56 with Green Mil-dot reticle.....sturdy, bright, and a reticle that I can manage workable hold-overs out to 500 yards easily. And in your price range.

    Rifle Scopes I can't find the perfect budget scope and I know it exists.

    You can get Trijicon AccuPoints with MilDot reticles, but they are not FFP. I have both the 3-9x40 and the 2.5-10x56.....love them both.
