Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. are you on a bench or prone?
  2. I've competed with an AR10 in both .308 and .260Rem with a 4-16X scope with a Horus reticle with good success. The accuracy you describe is more than adequate.
  3. Try to sell it as a whole. Try Snipers Hide.
  4. Could be a problem with fitment of trigger pins.
  5. .300 Win Mag is capable. 338LM is more than capable.
  6. I have competed in PRS matches utilizing an AR10 chambered in .308 and later on chambered in .260 Rem. with very competitive results.
  7. Of course this is a righteous expression here in the US of A. Also like 'Pistolero".
  8. Badger Ordnance and Ken Farell both make picatinny rail scope bases for the Rem 700. Couple that with a pair of Seekins or Badger low rings and you will be in business.
  9. I saw the movie and apart from some small technical criticisms, felt it tried to convey his story in the book accurately. There was spontaneous and sustained applause at the end. America is hungry for heroes and leaders. The current crop of pygmies, both parties included, seem to be out of touch with the world as it is and infatuated with the world as they wish it was. This is extremely dangerous. Chris Kyle, whatever his foibles, accomplished great deeds of valor, on the battlefield that can not be diminished. He was not a saint but a man with flaws like each of us, perhaps more publicly known now. After seeing the movie was deeply moved by his sacrifice and the sacrifices of all of the men and women and their families, all volunteers, since 9/11.
  10. POF uses Rock 5R barrels which are excellent. They are extremely reliable and have good quality control. I have the .308 with a 16" barrel and it is plenty accurate out to 600 (furhtest distance available to me). I own GA Precision , KAC, and Armalite AR10's. You cant go wrong with a POF.
  11. You can range at any power with a FFP. With a variable power 2nd FP scope, you can only range at max. power, without doing some additional math. Stress plus an additional math step increase the probability of error on your part. More importantly, to me, with a FFP scope, if you miss with your 1st shot, corrections are fast and easy. Let's say you see your first strike at .4 mil.s low and off .2 mil.s left wind. Regardless of your power setting, with a FFP scope, you now hold the above-referenced correction and fire again because what you "see" in the scope is in true mil.s regardless of the power setting. No conversions are necessary. Lastly, make sure your turrets are in tenths of a mil. In the above example, if you wanted to dial your corrections, it is as easy as four clicks up and two clicks of windage and fire again. Front focal plane mil. reticles with one tenth mil. turrets reduce the complexity of quick adjustments under stress.
  12. Add a 20 MOA base if you intend to shoot to 1,000. I like the Accuracy International one piece 20 MOA base and rings. It is very rugged. A Magpul PRS stock is a huge improvement over the A2 for precision shooting. A good trigger is essential. I have tried all of them, I think. The Geissele Super Semi Automatic Enhanced is the best I have found thus far. These are modifications I've made on my AR10's. YMMV
  13. It is not the weapon's operating system that typically is the limiting factor but rather the operator's training and skill level.. In my experience, gas guns are inherently less forgiving than bolt guns, when there is operator error, especially in follow through.
