Looks for Range (1/11)

    Assymmetrical grips?

    I found the CZC thin grips rather slippery, even with the bit of grip tape they have. CZC now offers thin textured grips and thin checkered grips, you may want to consider those.
  2. I've achieved sub-half-moa groups on the factory barrel with PRIME; not everyday, but every now and again. I've found stuff that shoots more consistently according to the chrono though.
  3. There's some technique involved. Couldn't ever get it down well, but you roll them lengthwise (like a cigarette) then stick them in your ear and wait until they expand. Giving yourself a mild wet willy will help them seal better.
  4. Geissele Super SCAR, IWC scar charger, VLTOR buttstock, Trijicon TA33 ACOG. I at one point ran the Kinetic Dev rail system, but later took it off - if I were to go with a rail system these days, the Parker Mountain short rail looks like it'd do the job.
  5. I run a Noveske short throw on my 24C equipped lower.
  6. I find the SD3G utterly mushy. I sold it and got a 24C instead, never regretted that decision.
  7. ^Yep. I had a Cajunized SP-01 and it was a fantastic shooter. A factory TS was as good, if not better, without modifications; though to be fair the SP-01 had the Defensive Carry package and not the Pro package. These days, were I to get a CZ it'd have to be the TS Orange. An SP-01 in any flavor even Shadow 2 while close just isn't quite there. Especially if the standard TS grip isn't for you, the Orange likely will be.

  9. The value is really there, especially with the PRS discount.
  10. Hiperfire 24C is probably my favorite gaming trigger. Light, crisp, fast.
  11. If balance is your issue, weight off the buttstock or barrel is only option. You could also ADD weight to the rear for a better balancing rifle; while heavier, you may find it handles better.
  12. You will probably have better luck finding fired brass on various precision rifle forums. Depends on the headstamp you're interested in though. I could never find anyone interested in my Federal brass, but the Hornady, Prime, and Norma cases sold fast enough.
  13. Indeed, 3 TacSports is about one real nice rifle... One day I'll follow up on my younger self's desire to own a TS.
  14. Comparing 20" velocities in both 6.5G and .223 (with a sufficiently heavy 69-77gr) I found no point to the 6.5G UNLESS you are looking for energy. My 20" with an adjustable gas block and suppressor launches bullets in that weight from 2850-2960fps, accounting for less drop than the heavy 6.5G loads I looked at. Wind difference at 10MPH full value was minimal as well, maybe .2 MIL. As you're not looking for energy, there is no benefit to 6.5G IMO. .223 will teach you about wind for sure, especially out at 600yd or further. I've found having enough magnification and spotting misses to be the problem, especially around 800yd when using the 'typical' tactical style scope with ~10-12x magnification.
  15. Oh absolutely. $90 or whatever for a charging handle?! You can find them a good bit cheaper on sale and as others stated, co-branded for less.
