    SIG RF Warranty

    I was chatting with SIG support today to confirm the warranty for RFs. They said that as of today it is still 5 years from the date of manufacture but they will be releasing new warranty info in the near future that will be better, but wouldn't give details as to what the new warranty will be or...

    Sig KILO6K Black and Kestrel question

    I'm thinking about picking up the Sig KILO6K black for $800 and 5700Elite. There isn't a lot out there as far as reviews for 6K. It comes with AB lite up to 875yds. My question is If I connect the 5700 to the 6K and range a target lets say at 1500YDS will the solution show up in the KILO6K...

    Case Head separation Question

    I noticed that out of 250 pieces of 6.5x47 brass about 10 look like the pic below, which look to be case head separation issue. Only time I've ever had case head separation was with a 1xLC brass shot out of an AR-14 where the case actually separated. Primer pockets have always went out 1st...

    JP 6.5CM Brass

    Anyone has experience with JP brass? I didn't even know JP had their own brass available. Is it comparable with Hornady or better/worse? It's on special now 40% off so 500ct 6.5CM is $210. If it's at least as good as Hornady I might pick up 500 for my 6.5semi to try it out.

    Sometimes you just get lucky

    I wanted to practice some positional shooting so I loaded some random 260 rounds for my AT. The brass was lapua from 2013 when I had a 260 savage and first started reloading with who knows how many firings on them. Never been annealed. Very loose primer pockets and are ready to be trashed. All I...

    Laser beam divergence 0.5 x 1.2 mrad vs 0.5 x 2.5 mrad

    I'm in the market for an inexpensive rangefinder and I don't need any ballistic solvers. Just looking for a simple rangefinder. I was set on Leica 2400R until I noticed that laser beam divergence is 0.5x2.5 vs 0.5x1.2 for 2700B. How much of a real world difference would that extra 1.3 of...

    AI and 6.5x47 feeding issues

    Is anyone else having feeding issues with AI and 6.5x47s? I've tried four different mags and also tried adjusting the lips of the mags but I'm still having issues on my AT. It either double feeds, or the last round pops off when I insert the mag. This happens probably 20% of the time and it...

    Concentricity measurement opinion/advice

    I decided to complicate my life and got the 21st century concentricity gauge and need your advice/opinion. Based on the 2 videos below is it safe to assume that the runout of the round is about 0.001 (TIR/2)? Is measuring at the neck and at ogive the best way to go?

    Annealed vs Not-Annealed. Some stats

    I started annealing with salt bath method few weeks ago and ran some annealed vs not annealed tests over the weekend with identical loads. None of the brass (all Lapua) has ever been annealed before the test. I haven't kept track of number of firings but 260 has to be around 15 . Primer pockets...

    Elite Iron AIAT/AICS spigot mount

    Just got the elite iron spigot mount for AIAT ($100). It's a very nice mount that locks in solid. No movement whatsoever unlike the Atlas or the Big Dog although if you put some skateboard tape on atlas/big dog they dont move either. Another plus is that the elite mounts the bipod closer to the...

    Salt bath annealing advice

    I got the BR salt bath annealing kit today and annealed some brass following the directions provided. Below are some pics of what the annealed brass looks like. The middle ones are factory Lapua 260 and 308. The factory 260 annealing goes down further than my annealed brass and so does the...

    AIAT rail question

    Anyone know the part# for the rail in the pic? How does it actually get installed? Is there a seperate piece that goes on the bottom? Can it be installed on both sides? I'm pretty sure it can but it never hurts to ask. Thanks

    Range Report Berger Loaded Ammo

    Has anyone shot the Berger match ammo in 308, 260 or 6.5CM? How do they compare to Prime, Hornady or Federal match ammo? The 140gr hybrid targets are priced about $25-26/20 so $1.30/per and supposedly use Lapua brass. Sounds too good to be true. Just the brass and the bullet alone costs more...

    RRS BAI-AT2 AIAT plate pics

    Got my RRS BAT-AT2(updated) plate today and figured to post some pics in case someone needs them.  Compared to BAI-AT You can move the bipod closer to cg with BAI-AT but obviously with BAI-AT2 you can slide the bipod all the way forward. Also u cant really use the RRS barricade stop with...

    AIAW Mag Holder/Safariland ELS

    Does anyone make a AIAW magazine holder/pouch that will work with Safariland ELS? I didn't have any luck finding one. I've been using the ELS for 3 gun matches for few years and it's a very convenient system to use. If possible I would like to use ELS for rifle mathces as well.

    AI AT HRD Gear ARCA Rail question

    I have RRS BAI-AT rail as shown on my AT and would like to add the HRD Gear 9" to get rid of the Big Dog spigot mount to save some weight and to be able to move/slide the bipod faster and more easily . The HRD rail will extend around 5" beyond the chassis. Does anyone have this setup or know...

    Rifle Scopes Minox ZP5 tunneling question

    My ZP5 5-25 looks like this at 5x. The ring disappears on 5.2x or 5.3x. Is this what other ZP5 owners experiencence as well? I'm not sure if it's even tunneling. It's a clear ring vs what S&B tunneling looks like. Hard to take a good pic with a phone.

    Rifle Scopes Minox ZP5 5-25 Turret video.

    I got couple of pms re the turrets on Minox ZP5 so I figured I'll just post a video of it. I got it about a month ago so it's the latest model. The only other scope I had at hand to compare the ZP5 with was a Burris XTRII 5-25. Not really a fair comparison but that's all I had.
