Rifle Scopes - Disadvantages to higher rings

So a few days ago I installed my mountain tac 20 moa rail and installed my current scope with .90 vortex rings. I got the itch to get some arc m10 rings and found a good deal on some 1.10. The picture is with the .90 height rings. Any disadvanteges to another .20 added on? I would think maybe a...

What Magnum Has the Best Barrel Life?

What magnum, with factory brass, from short action to CIP mag compatible, has the best 'barrel life'? The barrel will be swapped once groups get above .5 moa.

These are highly entertaining.

What was the point again?

At the beginning of 2020 I started shooting for the first time in my life. I hired a USMC trained instructor to tell me what's what. I can now shoot off a tripod and hit a .75 ipsc torso at 1200 yards. I own everything under a half mile on first shot as long as its not running. I can shoot...

There is a massive disconnect happening with this website

This website is blowing my mind, or at least the Bear Pit trolls are. Are you guys fuck*ng kidding me? You think hitting 1000 yards is impressive? There is a major disconnect happening and I don't know what it is. My rig was over $10K. I'm paying a top instructor. On a recent trip to the...

WTS: Couple bricks of CCI 1k large rifle primers - $58 each

I got a few bricks of CCI 1k large rifle primers for sale. $58 each, you pay shipping. They have some dimples on the back, probably cosmetic. Other than that I know for a fact they will fit inside a large rifle primer pocket.

MOA vs Mil

Yes, bringing this up again because I can never get a real answer, even during a match with the top shooters. I know this is not really that big of a deal with calculator and all. What is even more odd, I have watched videos on people not in the US doing reviews on certain items and they are...

Nominated for the sextant comments, new units of measurement, and in honor of Snipers Hide Mil vs MOA month which is now commemorated in February.

At least you're famous for something good (funny new unit of measurement) and not for stupidity. Lots of Florida Men (the idiots that are caught doing something stupid like marrying an alligator) are famous and I'd never brag about that. It is entertaining to type in "Florida man *insert month and day*".

Thank you sir. With the power being out in Texas I had time on my hands and needed some humor. I just sought, and received, a great deal of like minded support. And had a lot of fun along the way!

And @Rocketvapor played his part. MILOA will live in infamy.

Marrying an alligator? Nah, that's not Florida man, that's more like UK woman...

Real Florida Man? Catches an alligator with bare hands, slaughters and butchers it with a Spyderco pocket knife, eats every part of it, and then uses the tail to beat the shit out of his neighbor for stealing his marijuana plants...

Get yer' geography correct fellas!

Are there options for light pull weight (at least 8 ozs.) triggers for a 10/22? Notice I said “options”. I prefer not to be boxed in by a single manufacturer.

www.snipershide.com

Currently going.
Reason for nomination. The Veer_g created Cockfag award was bestowed for only the second time. Also OP was teasing the Bancat Handler himself (never a smart thing to do).

 

[Chard1]

Figured it'd be nice to have a place to go to find some of the Legendary threads. They can be old ones (like gecko45), newer ones (like buddly or recoil control bipods), or even as a place to check what looks like it might turn into a Legendary thread. I've seen a few times where different members have said that they wish they'd known about the thread sooner.

Friendly reminder. Don't necro a thread without a good reason on threads that are open.

Anyone can add a new link that they think deserves Legendary Status. If there is a new thread currently running I might not get there in time.

Thanks much!

I sorta agree but it could turn more Legendary. Didn't want anyone to miss out since it is in the New Member section. From my starting post of this thread.

I lusted for The Fix rifle; I just do not want the caliber I got.

I first laid eyes on The Fix a couple years and was very impressed; I also learned about 8.6 BLK and was damn impressed with such an evil little rifle. I shoot 45acp and 308 because I adore suppressors and live in the SE. I could see supporting the 8.6 BLK caliber and have been waiting to see...

Nominated by carbonbased. Active with an active responder. Keep it within the limits since it is in Bolt Action and not the Pit. (edit: lay off the dog pile. Mod direction. Still a good read though.)

If it doesn't attain Legendary Thread status, it contains one of @TheGerman's best posts ever, which deserves to not be buried there, but captured here for posterity:

As far as 'what equipment'; well, I'm light years ahead of basically everyone at this point.


I have things you people wouldn't believe.

Entire hillsides on fire from tracer machine gun fire off the shoulder of southern Utah.

I watched full power IR lasers glitter in the dark near your mom's house while streaming restricted porn channels on my GoTenna.

All those moments will be lost in time, like Bender's virginity.

Time to find more rare custom Crye combat pants.
