    A&D FX120i labscale reloading upgrade with V2 auto trickler review.

    The red plastic hopper (which is 4 or 5 inches tall) slides off the top of the dumper, too.

    Good triggers

    Most of my AR pattern rifles have the Geissele SSA, but 2 have the GS2, and I can't distinguish between them while shooting. The GS2 turns up on sale for less than $150 from time to time which is why I'm pointing out the similarity. While the SSA-E (or another of Geissele's higher end triggers)...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex razor gen 1. Hard to get behind? Or the new toric. HELP!!!!!!!

    I had a 5 mil/rev model that had the newer less fussy eyepiece. Only really old units have the original finicky eyepiece.

    Rifle Scopes Schmidt vs NF vs Tangent Theta, what to buy

    I use a throw lever and flip caps. The throw lever makes quick magnification changes possible without inadvertently rotating the flip cap into the path of the bolt handle or in front of the elevation turret (obscuring the view). It's pretty simple, really, I want the scope cap to stay where I...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Slip & Loctite on Mounts - S&B Scope w/ Spuhr Mount

    I just checked 2 of my rifles, one with a Spuhr 4006 mount and the other with Seekins 6/4 screw low 34mm rings, both gripping Minox ZP5 5-25 scopes. Hundreds of rounds under the Spuhr mount and roughly 150 under the Seekins rings. I assemble with clean and dry scope tube and rings/mount clean...

    My "Red Dawn" Build

    "Red Dawn" build suggests SHTF duty. I have an AIAX (and a low round count .308 barrel) for that. Competition rig... the AIAX is a bit heavy for me as I get older and lose muscle mass, I built a PTG R700 action/TriggerTech trigger/MPA BA Lite chassis for that. It's 4 lbs. lighter than the AIAX.

    OG Terrapin Question

    I'm in the same boat with my PLRF15C. Hoping it doesn't turn into an expensive paperweight.

    Help with Conx

    I think the OP means he can't consistently range past 1000 yards since he refers to "targeting mode", a rangefinder option, not a ballistics calculation option.

    Rifle Scopes Thoughts on poss. selling Vortex Gen 2 4.5-27 for Cronus BTR 4.5-29 & XLR Element chassis

    I owned a 4.5-27x56 Gen 2 Razor and a 4.5-29x56 Cronus (non BTR) in the past. I sold the Cronus to fund a second Minox ZP5, not because there was anything wrong with it. I did a 15 mil tracking test and it returned 1% error. The glass was a wash, in my experience they're both excellent...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Height Question

    Like Rob01 has commented, some rifles are designed to use a tall mount, even though use of a tall mount (even with a 56mm or larger objective) will leave a large gap between the barrel and the objective bell. I have an AIAX which requires a relatively tall (Spuhr 4006, 1.35" high) mount for a...

    Rifle Scopes Newbie question on rings

    The gap does not need to be exactly the same on both sides, but there should be a gap on both sides. If you went to the expense of buying Seekins rings, I suspect your scope was somewhat expensive, too. Don't rely on hand tightening ring screws on your nice optical instrument. Get a low value...

    Magpul Pro 700 Chassis

    It's a little bit of a PITA to remove or install the bolt into my AI folder. Can't reach the bolt release when it's folded all the way. Cant get the bolt in or out when the stock is extended, comb is in the way. Have to partially fold it (or unfold it) to install or remove the bolt. Partially...

    A&D FX120i labscale reloading upgrade with V2 auto trickler review.

    Same resolution and precision as the 120, but nearly 3 times the capacity. No downside other than the higher price. It's nuts that they're all out of stock, I guess the rebate has increased demand.

    Ruger RPR Hangin With AI ????

    My buddy got a 1st Gen RPR in .308. Didn't shoot worth a damn with the original barrel. I spun up a replacement 24" barrel in 6.5 CM from a K&P blank. He's only had it out once but it was laying down 3/4" 5 shot groups at 100 yards with Hornady factory ammo from shot 1.

    POF ReVolt

    Right off the top of my head I see 2 issues. Ammo COL limited to AR mag length (~2.25") Cases that stick in the chamber are gonne take a mighty pull to break loose. Bolt actions have a little ramp at the top of the bolt throw that starts the extraction with some real mechanical advantage. ARs...

    Rifle Scopes 34 mm rings

    Seekins or Vortex Precision Matched (same rings with different branding). Badger. Nightforce. ARC M10 Aadland RRS one piece Spuhr (rings or ISMS one piece) AI one piece Lots of good choices out there. I'm debating trying a set of UTG Pro rings for my next set of medium or high rings. For some...

    Rifle Scopes Reticle "shift" when adjusting magnification

    Even if the reticle shifts in the field of view when you change the magnification, in an FFP scope, the reticle does not shift relative to the target, so it's an annoyance more than anything.

    Lightweight one piece Rem 700SA chassis

    Very pretty. I'd like to see those holes on the top of the handguard plugged with some low profile screws, like buttonheads. Leaving them exposed doesn't jibe with the level of detail evident everywhere else. Nylon screws are available in a few colors and would add practically no weight. Just a...

    Scales scales scales... tell me about your scale!

    How is the Prometheus going to deliver greater precision than a milligram lab balance that weighs down to the single kernel? Does the Prometheus cut kernels in half?

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    Unless you blueprint both the rail and the accessory that doesn't fit that rail and compare the dimensions to industry standard specifications, you can't say which product is out of spec. It's possible that the AI rail is within spec even though you've found one accessory that doesn't interface...
