    Sold AR10 (DPMS) Custom Complete Upper w/ Barrel Option in 6.5 Creedmoor - Faxon or BA Barrel - Sold Together or Barrels Sold Separately

    I looked into selling firearms across state lines and it actually doesn't seem too difficult so I'm going to give it a try. I'm going to sell the AR10 as a complete gun. I'll make the post tomorrow. When I do, I will take this listing down. Until then all my deals above still stand.

    Sold AR10 (DPMS) Custom Complete Upper w/ Barrel Option in 6.5 Creedmoor - Faxon or BA Barrel - Sold Together or Barrels Sold Separately

    ^^^ I technically could be open to a trade but I am so picky in what I am looking for that I don't want to waste anyone's time. I am looking for a decent target range spotting scope (quality $500+), high end LPVO, or a really good hunting scope. Feel free to message me.

    Sold AR10 (DPMS) Custom Complete Upper w/ Barrel Option in 6.5 Creedmoor - Faxon or BA Barrel - Sold Together or Barrels Sold Separately

    To give my personal experience between the 18in 6.5 Creedmoor Ballistic Advantage and Faxon barrels - Both are match barrels and shoot +/- MOA at 100 yards depending on the ammo. The big difference between the two 18in barrels is the weight. The Faxon(40oz) is 20oz lighter than the BA(60oz)...

    Cheapest Spotting Scopes for Range use out to 300-400 yards

    Thanks so much for the article. You have me convinced. I think I'm going to go with the Ares G2 UHD 65, and Cameraland has the best prices by far. Just need to come up with the money before the end of August, which is doable. Thanks everyone for your help!

    New to scopes, how to approach weight and magnification needs?

    ^^ For good quality, at a good price, and a light weight - look at the Leupold VX-Freedom series. I have a 4-12x40 with 1 inch tube at 13oz for $300-$400, depending on the reticle. It does have a fixed parallax at 150 yards but you can still take a shot as close as 50 yards and out to 500...

    Cheapest Spotting Scopes for Range use out to 300-400 yards

    ^^ What eyepiece do you use with your Nikon ED50? Looks to me you purchase the body and then attach the eyepiece you want that is purchased separately. Thanks everyone for the information. For what I want, it looks like I am looking for a spotting scope in the $500-$600 range. My last...

    Cheapest Spotting Scopes for Range use out to 300-400 yards

    ^ And you purchased the Ares series? Is the 45x magnification enough? I am hoping that with better scopes, the max magnification still produces clear viewing. You ever wish you got a 60x? I see that the Argos series goes to 60x, but is also cheaper so probably the quality isn't good enough.

    Cheapest Spotting Scopes for Range use out to 300-400 yards

    That makes a lot of sense. I didn't think to account for quality control variation. Thank you. I normally by online, but buying from a local store with a good return policy is a good idea...or Amazon.

    Cheapest Spotting Scopes for Range use out to 300-400 yards

    Is 45x magnification able to do what I am asking? I am sure the glass quality is amazing, and I am sure $200 is a great price, but I want to try an learn a little bit more to know if that will work for what I need it to. Have you used this spotting scope for long distance target shooting?

    Cheapest Spotting Scopes for Range use out to 300-400 yards

    I am willing to pay the money if that is for sure what I need. To clarify, I guess I don't need to see the actual hole but I would like to know if I hit the target at all at 400 yards. I do you florescent marking targets. Do you have a recommendation?

    Frankford Arsenal Universal Precision Case Trimmer vs wft

    I have the Frankford Arsenal Universal Case Trimmer and Prep System. I love it. The more expensive ones don't do anything that this one can't. The primer pocket cleaner and debur tools are great. They move kinda fast so use little pressure and only hold them for a half second. If you are...

    Looking for a simple mobility routine

    Squat. Squats provide great dynamic stretching for the lower body. You can also hold in the bottom position for static stretching and building additional strength. Make sure your feet/heals stay flat on the ground. Eventually you will be able to sit comfortably in a squat position.

    Hip pain during heavy pack out.

    I know the pain you are talking about. My right leg is almost an inch longer than my left. It's not something you notice until you are carrying a lot of weight on it. I use to get anything from horrible pain while backpacking to a low internal ache from standing in the same spot for too long...

    Cheapest Spotting Scopes for Range use out to 300-400 yards

    I have read a lot of comments on spotting scopes and the opinions vary. I currently use binos for hunting and that's all I need. I need a spotting scope for long distance target shooting at the range out to 300-400 yards. I want to be able to see my shots on a florescent marking target. What...

    Reloading without tumbling

    I use the Frankford vibrating tumbler with corncob media. It super easy and cheap. You can get the tumbler, media, and sorting strainer for $100 and the media has easily lasted me a couple thousand rounds and still going strong. I here that stainless steel media in the wet tumblers can ruin...

    How many times to reload brass

    I agree with everyone here. Load until the case no longer functions how it should...but some things can sneak up on you. I notice that it becomes harder to set back the shoulder while resizing the brass after 3 or 4 reloads. It's like the metal isn't as flexible anymore (which it isn't). My...

    Room Temperature When Reloading

    I can't relate to the cold, but I can relate to the hot. I live in Phoenix, AZ and right now it is 115+ degrees outside right now. My setup finally took up enough space to where I had to move everything out into the garage. It is way to hot to reload any time of day right now, but I was...

    6.5 Bullet for antelope

    I get an antelope every year in Wyoming. I use a 6.5 creed with Hornady 143gr ELD-X. Not only are the terminal ballistics amazing, the bullet can buck the wind better than anything else I've shot. Last year I got my antelope right through the heart at 485 yards. I have also had to put the...
