Yeah sorry. I called this morning. I made some poor assumptions about the 20MOA thing. seems like they are the same height.

Warne Scope Mounts has a new version of their XSKEL mount built on a 20MOA platform. I did a little research and realized that the Warne Scope Mounts website shows the measurements of the regular XSKEL centerline at 1.435 in and then shows an inaccurate 1.435 in. for their 20MOA mount. It must be substantially higher. I will be letting them know in the morning that the website is wrong. (Which isn't as douchey as it sounds because my wife works there.) Bottom line is, if their 20MOA LRSKEL mount has the height you want, 119.00 for the LRSKEL mount from Warne seems like a nice deal compared to 232.00 for the LaRue. Both great mounts if they serve your purpose, but why pay more if you don't have to. Call Warne Scope Mounts at 1 (800) 683-5590 and ask for Justyn (Pronounced Justin) Cory or Randy. One of them should be able to get the correct centerline height for you. If not, I can measure mine and get you a ballpark measurement. Here is the link to the product. It's available in 1", 30mm and 34mm. Again, the centerline height is almost guaranteed to be wrong. Disregard until you get a confirmation on the height. http://warnescopemounts.com/product/lrskel30tg-20moa-extended-skeletonized-30mm-msr-mount/

Here's what you do... Call Warne Scope Mounts (503) 657-5590 and ask for Leilani or Justyn (Pronounced Justin) and tell them you bought a RAMP and really feel like an XSKEL would work better for you. If you want the 45 degree offset, let them know you'll need an A645 (the model number of their single 45 degree add on mount) THEN, you pray that 1. you've been nice enough to have them help you out and 2. That they have what you need in stock (Things are pretty slammed right now.) 3. You do NOT tell them I said this would work because it might not, but they're good people and their custom service is outstanding. If they can help you out, and you are very nice. It just might work. If it doesn't, not harm done. They're good people, give it a try.

No, I don't reload. I've shot a suppressed .300 BO a few times. I would love to have one. What buffer you using? Twist on the barrel?

I'm dreaming of a .300 BO SBR with a nice can on it. I don't know that much about piecing them together so I thought I'd ask all of you. Is .300 BO built off a .223 platform or a .300, or .308? (yeah, told you I didn't know much.) What should I know about ammo when it comes to home defense Vs hunting? Buffer, BCG considerations? Who makes a good barrel and how much does that matter on an 8"-10.5" barrel? Speaking of, is there an optimal barrel length and twist rate? What else am I not thinking of? Thanks!

Call Warne Scope Mounts. Ask for Justyn (Pronounced Justin) 1-800-683-5590. He will help you out. You'll just need to know your rifle model and optics choice (Preferably the diameter of the tube and objective lens diameter) They will have anything you might need. You can also check out their website. Looks like they have a scope mount selector feature now. http://warnescopemounts.com/

Thanks for all of the great ideas! I've been watching The Flash, Blacklist and Man in the High Castle. I will be adding more of your suggestions as time allows!

Apocalypse Now Shooter or The Way of the Gun?

Colt Give away your favorite gun, or live with Bernie Sanders for a month?

Hey Everyone! I'm looking to simplify my oils, solvents, greases etc. Do I "NEED" copper cleaners, Hoppe's solvents, oils, CLP sprays? I would love to narrow it down to 3 or 4 really good products, but I feel like I have a box full of sample/trial size everythings. Now, if you "smarter then me" people say, "hey, you really need these 6 things, then I will go with 6 things... But the box of samples has to go! I have researched some, but it's so much easier to ask with so many experienced people on the forum. So, what are those top-end do-it-all items that are must haves? Thanks, Greg

Bwahahahaha! Nice! Golf...only because I used to "attempt" to play for a while. Wax all of your body hair or shoot your next match in only a thong and your belt?

I have Taran Tactical +2. I also love the way it extends the grip. Now my 43 feels like an extension of my body. Now I just have to change those sights and that trigger!

Killian's Who take's the shot? Precision Rifle Champion, or Top Military Sniper?

Let me start by saying I know very little about precision rifle. I was in a conversation the other day and it made me wonder... If you had to have someone take the shot and whatever target you wanted the shot taken...who would you pick? Top precision rifle shooter, or top military sniper? You can take play this like the "Deadliest Warrior" show if you want. Obviously there are a million factors involved here and some of the top PRS guys are indeed current or former military snipers. But in what situations would you pick one over another? Bottom line, you're picking "kickball teams" for whatever shot you need taken. Which do you pick and why? OR If this is easier... stationary targets at 300, 600, 800 and 1000. 25 shots at each target. Who hits the most?

My current range bag is shot... I'm looking for a new one. I've been looking at the 5.11 Tactical Range Ready Bag, but I was wondering if I'm missing anything more appropriate. I would like an all-in-one bag to bring to the range. A few different types of ammo, a pistol or two, eyes, ears, cleaning gear, tools etc. Is this the bag, or is there something better out there?
