    Night Vision Recommend IR illuminator for LR

    New to the world of NV. I grabbed a pvs-30 recently to start playing at night. I noticed when the moon was straight overhead the targets got almost shadowed in the optic and made it very hard to see good detail shooting. Without grabbing a Wilcox Raptar so I can leave my Vortex Impact, what...

    600 yard hunting challenge complete

    I set myself a goal this year to take a deer at 600 yards with an AR rifle. To be sure it was up for the task every time I went to the range even shooting other rifles I shot 1 cold bore shot at 600 to be sure it was always consistent. I carry this rifle to 900 on a normal basis. This...

    204 Ruger Proof CF barrel tested

    Barrel is a 20” 1 in 10 twist, has 50 rounds on it up to now. Did a quick break in. Sharing this because I couldn’t find anything on it. Only running factory loads at the time to break in and collect brass. It seemed to favor the 36 gr prairie enemy a little more breaking it in but they are...

    Anyone else seem to find the Sierra 77 gr TMK bc fall short from claimed?

    I tried to switch again not long ago to the TMK just to feel more comfortable about expansion at extended ranges from my SMK’s (haven’t had an issue yet with opening tips). But after finding a good load i ran them awhile back and notice hits needed more elevation than called for using the...

    New optic for Spr 1-10 or 2-10

    So I have been looking for something to replace an optic on an accurate Spr build. Is there a 1-10 that will compare to the 2-10’s on top end with clarity and forgiveness in ? I really like the idea of a 1-10 but folks that really run them say they still are not as forgiving as a 2-10 on the...

    She wanted a large frame AR

    Just finished my wife’s new range toy and gave it a test run. She said she wanted a large frame AR too so I obliged. I had other plans for this set but she liked the hydro dip much more than me so I built it out for her. Aero M5e1 6.5 creedmoor Proof 22” SS Bedded to a thermo fit Ultradyne...

    69 gr TMK accuracy?

    I have been using 77 gr SMK’s but the TMK’s higher BC has me interested. The 77 TMK’s seem to be unobtainium but I see the 69’s time to time and with the added velocity it would give up very little and should perform better than my 77 SMK’s. Thing is, it seems the 77 TMK’s don’t seem to shoot...

    Shooting platforms for shooting prone

    Making a range for personal use for me and my wife, a few friends will join us time to time. Looking for what size platforms will be adequate for up to 3 shooters. I was set on 10x12 but now I’m thinking possibly 10x16. I will be setting it on 4 poles buried and concrete in place. Went today...

    6.5 Creedmoor & IMR 7828ssc

    Has anyone ran this powder in the 6.5 creed? I am new to this cartridge, put it off a very long time but I decided to have a precision AR10 built in it. I already have a lot of rifles I load for and none of them share a powder most use in the 6.5 creed. It’s either to fast or to slow it...

    Riton 5 Tactix 1-10x24 opinions

    Has anyone handled this optic? Looking for a good entry level lpvo to test them out. Like the specs on this scope. How is the glass, illumination, and thickness of the scope body looking through it?

    Ar15 5.56 77smk going transonic

    Rifle is shooting 77gr SMK’s at 2783 fps muzzle, I am at sea level. My ballistic app says between 750-800 yards it was going transonic and I guess it didn’t lie. I shot earlier at 790 yards and noticed my 1/2-3/4 moa rifle was struggling to consistently hit a 1.5 moa plate. I kinda thought...

    New PA Glx 3-18

    What is the glass in the Glx scope comparable to? Never owned one, almost bought the 2.5-10 a few times for an Ar. Or will these new 3-18 & 4.5-27 optics have different glass and brighter Illuminated reticle? Any hands on testing by anyone pre release? For what it is locking turrets and...

    Rugged Razor 5.56 or AB Warthog 5.56

    Wanting a dedicated 5.56 suppressor for my AR. Noise, size, weight, least back pressure (gas in my face) are my requirements. These seem to fit it well. Anyone used them?
