    AI AT issue? - No issue, Kudos to Eurooptic

    Must have been an aberration. The rifle was wrapped only in plastic bag. The bolt assy was is separate plastic bag, as were stock spacers and manual. All were set in rather oversize cutouts in pretty soft white foam. No doubt the box had been roughly handled by Fed Ex ground. The...

    AI AT issue? - No issue, Kudos to Eurooptic

    Ordered AI AT folder and it came in as promised, except was damaged in shipment. Rough handling apparently, combined with not great packaging. Emailed Eurooptic. Eric responded and four days later had a spankin' new pale brown AT folder (with extra packaging effort) and a call tag for the rifle...

    Night Vision Optic/NV device positioning. NV device in front or behind?

    I am just wanting to use ITT PVS14 with EOTECH EXPS3 (integral rail qd) on a flat top AR. I see pictures of this optic and PVS 14 mounted in either position, fore or aft of each other. Which position is correct, or is there one? Also whose mount correctly aligns the height of ITT PVS 14...

    Rifle Scopes Scope mount for AI AT .308 + S&B 5-25 X 56?

    I am about to put down a deposit on the above, and am unsure what mount(s) to get, as well as built in angle/cant (the term escapes me at moment) of the mount. I will be shooting this primarily 400 - 1200 yards. My AWSM has the one piece base dovetail mount. Is this best choice, with pic...

    Suppressors My worn 1911...

    Re: My worn 1911... I have a Baer SRP that has a little over 4000 rounds through it. It is one accurate son of a gun. Only thing that has failed so far was slide lock ear. Would not hold slide back after last round. It is a dandy. Whoever makes it, ya gotta thank John Browning. I have a...

    Looking for suggestions (hard rifle case)

    Re: Looking for suggestions (hard rifle case) Here's a great site for denser foam that cuts well with a sharp thin knife or a hot wire foam cutter. Amazon has the cutter for about $90. http://www.foambymail.com If you take the time you can make professional looking inserts for your case...

    Your Input on Lake City's M855 SS109 ammo

    Re: Your Input on Lake City's M855 SS109 ammo It is generally less accurate than M193 in my 1/7 rifles. Hard on steel and easy to set grass fires with when shooting steel. I have a lot of it in both IMI and Fed, and wish it was M193 instead.

    Bullet length inconsistancy. Normal?

    Still a newbie. So, got my 1000 SMK .250 gr .338 bullets and preparing to start loading. Measuring distance to land with Hornady gauge. C.O.A.L. length is as much as 0.010" - 0.014" different among ten bullets. I have had very consistent results with Lapua projectiles, and best with Hornady -...

    Re: Of all the guns you own Several people responded similarly, including showing pistols. Sorry to arouse the ire of the board police. I can't choose a favorite among those listed. Forest

    Photos Gotta love a blonde with a machine gun!

    Re: Gotta love a blonde with a machine gun! It's an M16 with a Colt Light Machine Gun upper. It is not new, but I have to mark it as my personal property rather than part of my inventory as an FFL/SOT Machine guns are great fore-play.:)

    AI/AE MK II or AW,..NF or S&B...Combo questions ??

    Re: AI/AE MK II or AW,..NF or S&B...Combo questions ?? I have an AI .338 with S&B 5-25 X 56. Also have a Iron Brigade M40 replica with 3.5 (I think) - 15X50 optic. I find the S&B to be a lot clearer optically, but perhaps the difference in scope spec re power etc may be the difference...

    How much neck tension?

    Re: How much neck tension? I am, more or less, accidentally doing a la' Greg's method. Using .336 bushing with Lapua fire formed brass a little more than a third of neck length. Bullet can just about be seated by hand. Seemed pretty loose versus virgin brass. But glad it is fairly close to...
