    308 Beyond 1K YARDS

    Lapua recently revised the BC on this bullet to .460. I've shot this bullet to 1000 and .460 entered into JM Ballistics is spot on for drop.

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta in Spuhr - Parallax Binding

    Mmmm.......that’s disappointing in a scope that costs thousands. You shouldn’t have that uncertainty that you can break it on a PRS barricade. I’ve actually dropped my AXMC off a bench with my PM2 mounted in a Spurh and the rifle landed on the eyepiece (stock was folded at the time). After my...

    Question for all you AI Guys I have the AXMC Long action rifle and just have the .308 barrel at the moment. I've ordered the .338 barrel and conversion kit as well but I'm planning on just switching the muzzle brake between the 2 of them for the time being until my wallet cools off and I can...

    6.5 vs. 308

    I was in a similar position 6 months ago. I bought an AI rifle in .308 as we can't get them from the factory with the 6.5 barrel in the UK. I was new to the long range game but the .308 is a great cartridge to learn with. It recoils and the wind moves the bullet around so you really learn how...

    Does anyone know the Cerakote code for AI Flat Dark Earth colour? I want to get my mod done to match the barrel. Thanks!

    Rifle Scopes Schmidt and Bender: is it time to cut my losses

    My S&B 5-25 PM2 has been bulletproof. Even managed to drop the rifle off a bench in the the drag bag the other day and smash the scope cap with no damage to the eyepiece. It still put the first cold bore round through the V bull, the zero didn't move. They are the gold standard for a...

    I’ve got a mag adapter in black on a Dark Earth rifle. Mine just came that way from the factory as I ordered the AXMC long action in .308. You can see the left hand side of the adapter where the mag cut out sits. I wouldn't worry about it though. I think it looks bad ass and breaks up the...

    Maggie’s I'm glad I don't live in England anymore.

    I think the media has a lot to blame in this. Our left wing media portrays the US like it's the Wild West....everyone wearing a gun on their hip and bullets flying every time you go to the shops. Whenever I've been to the US I have always had a good experience and found everyone to be very...

    Maggie’s I'm glad I don't live in England anymore.

    Yes you make a very good point.....we had a famous case of a 70 year old farmer shooting a burglar dead a few years ago and the farmer ended up in prison. That is fucked up. We have had a lot of stabbings but the part of the story you might not see in the US is that 95% of them happen in a...

    Good to see you are all open to new ideas and points of view from a different country. I simply make a point on a forum and have been attacked by several people I don't know and have never met. Thanks guys.

    Maggie’s I'm glad I don't live in England anymore.

    OK buddy we get it.....you left England because you hated it. Move on. As for population density where did you live in the UK? I live in miles of open country side. In terms of suitable places to shoot I have a world class clay ground on my doorstep and 6 rifle ranges all within a 90 minute...

    Maggie’s I'm glad I don't live in England anymore.

    Whoa there! Not trying to open a debate. Our countries and systems are very different and I'm not criticising anyone. The UK is not a gun owning nation, it never really has been. Just a very different lifestyle that's all.

    Maggie’s I'm glad I don't live in England anymore.

    Well I live in the UK and I'm not exactly defenceless! I think we are a very different society to the US. You can still own guns here but you have to pass a long police screening process. It's not a big deal but you can't own a gun if you have any kind of criminal record so guns being used in...

    Data for 155 Lapua Scenar, Lapua Brass, Vhit N540, .308 AI AXMC with 24 inch 12 twist barrel - Help needed and this might help someone

    Hi everyone. I'm very new to reloading and I shot these loads today over a magneto speed 3. I'm still analysing the data and trying to make some sense of it. I've plotted the speeds of the rounds as it might help other people working up this load. I'm trying to decide on a powder load to...

    Off the shelf bolt gun

    I've also handled the Bergara and it felt a little nose heavy to me when standing with it. The Tikka balances much better into the shoulder.
