    My 284 Winchester Tikka Build

    How's that #5 look in the ctr channel? Not interested in the 180 eldm or 175 eldx?

    Q&A for SWFA SS 6x MQ Field Eval

    Have you ever been able to make an offset red dot work/be useful without the turrets obstructing the view? Application is a 16-18" hunting AR-15.

    Autotrickler alternative?

    Those companies don't want to integrate with a $500 lab balance and they lack the resources to build that part. I had a v3 and sold it because changing powders was a pain IMO. V4 should have been better but I decided to wait for a supertrickler instead. They should be shipping soon.

    Nightforce 4-16x42mm ATACR Field Evaluation Q&A

    @Formidilosus my Atacr looked exactly like that- I thought it was cracked but ended up just being an adhesive issue after sitting in the car on a hot TN day. Apparently the atacrs had a run with defective adhesives. NF got me fixed up quick. No doubt Forms knows his optics and I certainly don't...

    Painless load development (mine)

    Love this thread. As a person with a job / life / hobbies always short on time, I took the advice of some crazy internet logger - "kiss, find pressure, and rock on". It's given me my weekends back with zero detriment to accuracy. Oh, and I sold the charge master, autotrickler, and other...

    Anyone loading subsinic for hunting? Thinking about 338 fed in a sbr or bolt action pistol

    I enjoy my suppressed Henry lever with 180 grain xtp. Also have a 9mmg upper on for the AR. Haven't tried big game subsonic and don't intend to. Even varmints succumb too slowly at subsonic velocity IMO

    Tanget Theta 3-15x50mm Scope Evaluation

    I own a couple nightforce products, but as a company they really irritate me. Now I'm speaking from ignorance as I have no idea how the biz side of an optics company works, but it irks me that they don't offer what we need. An NX8 1-8 with the dmx reticle. Decent hunting reticle in the baby...

    Age old question... Suppressor Debate between 5 Suppressors

    If it's just for both guns I would do the tbac ultra 7 and a heartbeat. That can be pretty gassy on an AR though so I would also pick up the dedicated ar and I wouldn't be afraid to go cheap with something like a Yankee Hill resonator k or turbo k.

    Tanget Theta 3-15x50mm Scope Evaluation

    I had this happen to a 1-6. Empty, bolt open on a barricade, I stepped asside to pick up some brass, had a heavy stellite can front flip the rifle forward with significant centrifugal force- turret absorbed 100% of the impact. Bent so hard it was almost impossible to turn it with bare hands...

    SPUHR tikka mounts

    it's a much better scope than my skills justify, but I got it for ~$1600 used so the risk was minimal. It was actually a pretty early model that had an adhesive failure, but NF took care of me. Lots of deals out there if you're willing to slum a Mil-R

    SPUHR tikka mounts

    I bought the low hunting mount for a 4-16x42 atacr, and the bottom of the turret housing wouldn't fit. In the end I went with the 419 rail and rings. I'm learning I don't really care for low scopes anyhow since my glasses don't correct my astigmatism as well at the top of the lense.

    Tikka in 284 win

    Bump for info- Anyone running the 180eldm? That's the only bullet that seems to justify the hassle over the 147 / 6.5 cm. I figure the 195 is a bit too slow in a 20-24" Sporter.

    Getting into annealing...

    So just to be explicitly clear- You and others have gone from AMP to bench source and are happy with that decision? Have you actually observed any detrimental effects in the actual outcome? I don't currently anneal, but want to get setup. You might be saving me some $$$

    Swfa scopes

    6x is in stock now. I ordered another yesterday. But even the 3-9 is sourced easily via classifieds. Lug an atacr around for a few days and you'll call ~20 oz an ultra light.
