    New FN A3G range results

    Finally shot my new FN A3G today. Scope was a new Leupold Mark 4 ER/T 6.5-20x50mm, 30mm tube, M5 turrets, TMR reticle. I'm a AR carbine guy and this was actually the first time in my life I ever shot a bolt action rifle, so I was not expecting much. It started to rain about 30 minutes after...

    JBM Ballistics Tables not making sense

    Trying to produce a chart for .308 168 Sierra Matchking. Using BC of .462 and with G1 specified it shows I need to hold over 414 inches at 1000 yards. If I change nothing other than changing G1 to G7 it says I only need to hold over 295 inches. That's a pretty huge difference. Been trying to...

    Harris Bipod copper colored metal ring upgrade?

    I've noticed one thing about my Harris Bipod that bothers me. It's the little copper colored metal coil ring on the front of the bipod that keeps the little arm that's attached to the sling swivel clamps. Has anyone upgraded this with something like a stainless cotter pin?

    New FN A3G - FN target group pics

    Just picked her up today. Ordered from Cheaper Than Dirt. Serial# 33XXX Interestingly, there was only one target in the box. I've read where others were getting two, one before bedding and one after. Maybe after getting a .296 group @ 100 yards they decided it didn't need to be sent to...

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce F1 - Entire eyepiece rotates?

    Had just about decided on a Nightforce F1 for my new FNH A3G then... 4:47 into this video... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fe9vGG1p1GA Looks like entire eyepiece rotates when changing zoom. I really don't like this because you can use Butler creek flip up scope caps on the eyepiece if the...
