    Rifle Scopes Bushnell Tactical 6-24x50 FFP First Impression

    Re: Bushnell Tactical 6-24x50 FFP First Impression Anxious to see what you find out! I was just over at the Lenexa outlet center looking through the 6-24 and thought it looked great! I would have bought it there but Midway has a pretty good sale going on right now! Just ordered one today...

    Large Rifle Primers for ARs............

    Re: Large Rifle Primers for ARs............ There are CCI primers, I think it is #34...? It is a mil spec primer that supposedly is designed to prevent slam fires (harder cups). I have been using them but I bought them before really asking questions. It seems that the general consensus is...

    Semi Auto 1/4 MOA group?

    Re: Semi Auto 1/4 MOA group? So to continue on this topic in regard to reloading... How do you know when you have found the right load? I have been loading 15 rounds total for a particular charge weight, then shoot 3 5 shot groups. So if one of the 3 groups give me a 0.5" group or better...

    Semi Auto 1/4 MOA group?

    Re: Semi Auto 1/4 MOA group? So for you guys with alot of experience that shoot really good groups, say 0.5MOA. When you are shooting a series of multiple rounds, what would your worst group of the day be? I am asking this only to judge how inconsistent I am as a shooter! I may see a 0.75" 5...

    Semi Auto 1/4 MOA group?

    Re: Semi Auto 1/4 MOA group? Glad to see this post cause this has been driving me crazy! I have been working up reloads for a AR-10, and I feel I am struggling. Occasional 0.75MOA 5 shot group but looking at EVERY group fired...the majority are 1-1.5 MOA. It just seems harder for me anyway to...

    muzzle break for a 308 gas, how efficent?

    Re: muzzle break for a 308 gas, how efficent? I just had a Miculek installed, as well as a 20" Krieger barrel in one of my .308's. I had never shot a rifle with a compensator and I will tell you it was a significant difference! There is no way to gauge this other than "feel", but the recoil...

    Anyone use Scharch processed .308 brass?

    Re: Anyone use Scharch processed .308 brass? I am gonna give it a try... I have used thier .223 mixed processed brass and had great results (less than MOA accuracy). You can't beat the price, that is for sure. Hopefully the .308 brass will be just as good! Its just hard to justify Lapua for...

    Anyone use Scharch processed .308 brass?

    Re: Anyone use Scharch processed .308 brass? If this brass was processed all the same is there any reason it would not produce better than MOA accuracy?

    Anyone use Scharch processed .308 brass?

    I have used the .223 processed brass from Scharch (Top Brass) and had really good success. I was just curious if anyone has used the .308 brass. My thought was to use this for my DPMS, but I do not want to use it if this will be something to kill accuracy. I realize it is not Lapua, but I want...

    Lefty in the righty world...

    Re: Lefty in the righty world... I am left handed and shoot right handed bolt guns... I actually like it and do not own a left handed bolt. Now the right handed model feels "normal". The key is getting a stock such as Mcmillan or HS precision (others too) that has a ...."turn down" grip. I...

    Ruger 10/22 lvt... Input requested!

    I am just curious if anyone could give some input on the LVT. I have been trying to decide on a target .22 as a training rifle to improve my skills. I was really looking at the Savage Mk II TR, but then noticed the LVT. I couldn't find much information searching for any details. Do you think...

    DPMS MK12 7.62 Muzzle Brake

    Re: DPMS MK12 7.62 Muzzle Brake I have read other reviews on the PWS, but do you mind describing your findings? Reduced recoil? Increased noise around the shooter? Any input and opinions appreciated!

    RRA LAR-8, first time shoot!

    Re: RRA LAR-8, first time shoot! I can't imagine the Wal Mart Federal ammo would do well long range. I need to take my brother and his RRA shooting again to see if it will shoot well day to day. I think I am going to work up a 155gr load for his rifle (as well as my DPMS) and see how this...

    RRA LAR-8, first time shoot!

    Re: RRA LAR-8, first time shoot! I wasn't really out expecting great results with any ammo as we were just breaking in. My 2 DPMS rifles seemed to need 100-200 rounds to start showing thier capabilities. I was just shocked to see such amazing results with crap ammo that was repeatable when...
