    Rifle Scopes Nightforce MOAR & NP-R1 Reticles

    I have both, and love the MOAR. It does have thicker subtensions, but I use it for tactical matches for the most part. If you are only going to shoot paper, the NP-R1 is probably a better option. One thing I would mention is that my MOAR is in the ATACR, and the 34mm tube makes the biggest...

    1000 Yard Velocity

    I use the 155gr A-Max and if you run it at 2900fps, the velocity at 1K is still 1294fps. If you look at a comparison of wind drift and TOF (time of flight), you may find out that the 155 is a much better way to go.

    Something doesn't seem right with the Hornady OAL gauge reading and my JP LRP-07.

    I would start with talking to JP. They build exceptional rifles and provide great customer service.

    308 dies

    I prefer Forster, but consider Redding to be in the same class. As someone already said, buy once cry once. Good things aren't cheap and cheap things aren't good!!!!!

    Rifle Scopes Looking at new scope Vortex HD or NF ATACR?

    In my mind, the ATACR with MOAR reticle is the way to go!!! I have been using one since May, and couldn't be happier. Now, if the BEAST that I ordered in March would just get here........

    Whatever you decide, weight really matters. It sucks when your table moves at all.

    Is the NightForce BEAST out there?

    I placed a call to NF yesterday, and was told they shipped the first one out last week. Also said they will begin to fill orders when they have enough scopes to fill the order. They won't send out a scope here and there, just complete orders. He also said they quit taking backorders mid summer.

    Bipod recommendation

    I love my Atlas. I have the BT-10 and move it from gun to gun without much problem. For the time it takes to use the screws, the price difference is a lot.

    advise on chrono

    I have a Magneto Speed and love it!!! I have the V1, but its a great chrono. If you learn about the custom trigger, you can weed out problems you may encounter with it registering every shot. A call to Magneto Speed will get you a quick, easy lesson on how it works. They are great people to...
