    Level Indicators - Any recommendations?

    Love my Accuracy 1st level. Sounds like it might be a no-go for a 35mm tube though. I use the Accuracy 1st level even though I have the built-in bubble with the Spuhr mount. That thing is just too close to my eyes to see! I have my Accuracy 1st levelout as far as the last mm before the tube...

    OCW with Magneto Speed Chronograph

    I had been killing 2 birds with 1 stone--doing OCW w/Magneto attached. I did like all the data. Group sizes were 'probably' unaffected. Multitasking, it seemed. Lately though, I have been looking at them as 2 distinct operations--find a good OCW node/set with a naked barrel, then grab MV. Goes...

    Alamo Four Star: DHR Rail--anyone using?

    After much consternation and swearing...I finally pulled the thing off. It was not easy!

    Alamo Four Star: DHR Rail--anyone using?

    Just picked this up at MHS last week, in an attempt to allow my Atlas QD mount to move between all rifles. I didn't want to buy another Atlas if I could avoid it. This is for an AE mkiii. Alamo Four Star: DHR Rail - Mile High Shooting Accessories After using it for 100 rounds, I'm feeling...

    Rifle Scopes I'm so tired of Butler Creek

    Hey Jon A, I have 2 of your mounts and think they are the bees knees...I'm certain these covers will adhere to your self-imposed quality standards. I am of the opinion that $50 for piece of mind on a high dollar scope is money well spent. You thinking about including the Bushnell Elite...

    Rifle Scopes Aadland AR Scope Mount

    I have 2 sets of the 30mm rings, and they are truly wonderful. John was fantastic to work with as well...very helpful with my questions. I do so wish he had a 34mm set though...as that is what I've moved to and now I'm looking at other options, and I'd rather not!

    AE mkii barrel question

    Thanks Frank...that's what I needed to know. I'll check it out. If it is a Bartlein (AINA)...that would make it a 1 in 10"...right? It was the statement that it was 1 in 11" that was throwing me off a bit.

    AE mkii barrel question

    Who makes the AE mkiii barrel? On their website, it doesn't specify (or I didn't see it). I was in a shop today, and the salesman said it was a 1 in 11" Bartlein...but the AI website says it is a 1 in 12" twist. That would be great, but is it true? I forgot to look on the barrel when I was...

    Precision Rifle Reloading Press Choice

    I've got 2 of the 3 on my bench that comprise what I like to think of as the 'Holy Trinity'--I've got the Co-Ax, the T7...and hope to add the 550 within a year. I just can't seem to load pistol rounds with any enthusiasm on the single stage, and the turret is better, but just not 'cranking'...

    Designated marksman requirements

    Hey...I never got my center-punched dime for my super model girlfriend! They just whisked me off in a black helicopter to an undisclosed location, taught me a secret handshake, and inducted me into the Star Chamber. I knew I should have asked for my dime...that thing could have translated into...

    Seekins Precision Advanced Tactical Compensator for a .308 bolt rifle?

    I have been interested in exploring dropping a muzzle brake on my 700 5R, and I came across this: Seekins Precision Advanced Tactical Compensator - Black - .308/7.62 I haven't been able to turn up much--especially as it relates to use on a bolt gun. I found some feedback on its use for a 5.56...

    Tikka T3 .308 Win reloading

    If your goal is 1000 yards, you should consider switching to the 155 grain and 175 grain SMKs. The 168's get a little squirrely after ~ 600 yards. Not an issue with your rifle, but more the design of the bullet.

    My first GAP rifle!

    Really great looking rifle man...I'm sure you will be smiling when you start sending stuff downrange.

    Hunting & Fishing Clean slate elk rifle build

    I've been happy with my Tikka T3 in .30-06. That thing is < 7lbs, and tops out a bit over 9lbs when fully dressed. I agree with what was said above...hike 12+ miles a day through deadfall at 10,000+ ft, and you will have everything made perfectly clear to you :-)

    Hunting & Fishing What scope are you all using on Hunting Rigs

    SWFA SS 3-9X on my mountain rifle. I had it kind of 'left over' when I picked up a few 5-20's. Possibly a tad on the heavy side, but no complaints thus far. I also like the fact that I get to keep the mil-quad reticle, as are on my other rifles. It sort of keeps things familiar. Very clear glass...

    Hunting & Fishing Map options for my Garmin 550t?

    I did check out that GPSFileDepot...there are some pretty cool maps there. I did snag a topo that definitely is better than the stock Garmin one. I found it funny that for some of the GMU maps, they linked you out to the Hunting GPS Maps site!

    Hunting & Fishing Map options for my Garmin 550t?

    Yeah, I was kind of hoping that wasn't the case, but I knew to a degree that it probably was. Geez...buy once, cry once applies to maps too!! :rolleyes: I did find this, which looks pretty damn cool...for basically the same price as the Garmin maps. It is hunting specific to regions. Colorado...

    Hunting & Fishing Map options for my Garmin 550t?

    I just picked up a 550t, as a MUCH needed upgrade over my 10 year old etrex. I'm looking to see if there are any recommended topo map options (24k preferably)? The topo that comes with the unit is 100k, and really is not as robust as what I'm looking for? I'm using this for hunting. Garmin of...

    Advanced Marksmanship Putting rounds on target with Bryan Litz DVD

    Just got my copy today. I only watched about 45 mins of the first disc, but liking the presentation and content thus far. Right in stride with his books, and seems to help bring the concepts to life. I'm a visual learner, so that is helpful to me. I'm very interested in working through the rest...

    Rifle Scopes SWFA rings any good?

    I've been using them on my .22LR CZ455 and they work just fine for that application. If using for a bigger stick there may be an increased chance of issues. No experience with that, just a possible outcome.
