    AR/Gas Platform Easy Button For New Build?

    Every JP upper I have can do sub moa with handloads. Very easy. Les Baer also does it, but they come with long bull barrels.

    Best Scope for Western Rookie

    I talked with one of their engineers before sierra bought them. The copper bullets are 99.9% copper. Although he didn’t outright say it, he also inferred that the lrx opening better at a lower speed, is just marketing hype, which also mirrors my experience. They don’t expand any better at below...

    Best Scope for Western Rookie

    Barnes lrx, tsx and ttsx, are all made from solid copper, not an alloy. Always have been. I don’t know how one can make solid copper softer/harder. It’s not possible. They use the cavity size in the tip as an expansion variable. Also, I have shot and recovered quite a few lrx, tsx, and ttsx...

    Yes. LEM is good to go.

    Cabelaa vs Lem grinder

    That’s one of the problems his has. Fine grind is a no go, they send him parts, works for a few hours, and back to no go.

    Best Scope for Western Rookie

    If you are going to go out west much, don’t get a Leupold, unless you like to chase zero. The shots are longer, and animals don’t stick around long in open country. The last thing you need is another variable to account for.

    Cabelaa vs Lem grinder

    Get the LEM. My buddy has a Cabela’s carnivore, and it sucks. Constant problems. It doesn’t work right, and I had to bring my LEM to grind the rest of his elk up this year.

    SWFA website updated; More to come in 2024

    How can they redesign a scope, and still get it so wrong? It kind of reminds me of that show “punked”. Everyone asks for slim turrets, and they make them longer? Wtf?

    SWFA website updated; More to come in 2024

    Looks like they are still $299 for the 2nd gen fixed scopes. What a disappointment though.

    Selway Hunt Overview

    This is so funny because it’s true. Besides corn fed elk just plain taste better.

    Is it all Leopolds

    Here is an example of no company being immune to problems, and how other disciplines of shooters deal with it. Just like the drop tests here don’t lie, scope checkers don’t lie either. https://forum.accurateshooter.com/threads/nightforce-competition-fix.3982426/ Like I said, if you want...

    Is it all Leopolds

    Lol. I can tell you don’t get out much. I now trust my gear 100%. No need to check zero unless I switch ammo lots(which rarely happens because I buy in bulk). I also don’t need to trust pro shooters or elite military units, because I shoot enough to know what works and what doesn’t. That’s how...

    Is it all Leopolds

    You proved my point. The reason people have an issue with that statement, is they are emotionally vested in their gear. No amount of proof otherwise, or reasoning with them will change that. I consider the scope tests here just information. Thats all it is. There is no need to defend certain...

    Is it all Leopolds

    This post reads as it’s from someone who is in denial. It’s not that people don’t like leupold, it’s just that serious shooters don’t trust them. There is a reason for the early BR crowd freezing scopes, and using external adjustments. It wasn’t because scopes were dependable. All it takes...

    Good grief. People basically spoon fed them the recipe for a much improved scope, but it looks like SWFA is going to keep on putting square pegs in round holes. 🤦🏻‍♀️

    Am I looking for a unicorn?

    Being realistic, it’s either going to take time to draw, or LO tag money. At 62 time is against you, so that is something to consider. Finding a 300+ bull isn’t that difficult in a lot of western units. Getting a tag is another story.

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44mm SHR-Mil Q&A

    I very much agree. Another thing that most people don’t realize, is that the vast majority of companies don’t have many/any owners, or employees that are enthusiasts working there. This is why there is such a disconnect between forums like this, and product reality. I listened to the majority...

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44mm SHR-Mil Q&A

    Maven is in an odd situation. Some of their designs work, while others don’t. Updating the designs that don’t would be the correct choice, but it will cost money. Are they a big enough company to absorb that cost, in order to justify the potentially extra sales?
