  1. FYI

    Just some information from my experiences

    I've been running for the few months a Lancer - JP rifle with the Voodoo Innovation Evo Lite 16.5". No modifications have been made (or need to be made) to the gas system I've put a ton of rounds down range up too 600 yards with very good results in several configurations. Setup #1 was a nib full auto BCG with a stock rifle buffer (Seekins adjustable gas block 3 full turns from full close) and setup #2 Voodoo ultra lite BCG and DSG Arms 3oz carbine buffer (Seekins adjustable gas block 3.5 turns from full close) this is my current setup and the gas could be be turned down...All test were done with FM55gr inside 200 yards and HPA 75gr, Hornady 77gr, and CBC 77gr 200+ yards. Also I have tested operation with Tula 55gr for function reference. There is no reason I have seen with any load that I have shot to be concerned with function, the felt recoil is very comparable to my 18" rifle length gun. I don't feel like I've given up anything on accuracy vs the 18" either. Granted with a pencil barrel you're going to have a loss of accuracy if the barrel gets extremely hot, just like a heavier barrel if you dump a ton rounds through the results are similar. The evo lite with it being slender cools fast (between stages). This rifle with the evo lite has a very light and balanced feel.

  2. Spankymac ;Thanks I like that pattern , Is that type of stippling aggressive enough. or the old small dot's better

    Thanks for the great comments......

    It's pretty aggressive....you're guaranteed to have a positive grip. I've been told by quite a few people it's the only grip enhancement for them. The plastic on the M3K offers a great platform for grip enhancements.

  3. Ok you guys are killing me finding this at local stores I haven't been able to find one at all locally. Anywhere online that usually stocks them at a good price?

    Online:

    Euro Optic

    Gun Broker (although most are private sales or from Euro Optic)

    Able Ammo

    Or check Stoeger's website for Stoeger dealers near you. If your local Stoeger dealer does not have one in stock they should be able to order one and get it in a week or so. 24" is the hardest to find, but my dealer said he could order one and get it in less than 10 days (confirmed with a call to the Stoeger rep).

    Be careful with Euro Optic. I was going to buy one from him on GB, but he didn't actually have the gun in stock. I think his web site inventory is accurate, but his auctions aren't closed if he sells the item from his store.

    Able Ammo is the same, they show the 24" in stock but it has to ship from Benelli....approx 2 weeks to get one w/ free shipping

  4. Well I actually got a call from one of the Match Directors from 3GN after submitting comments on their website. We talked for about 10 minutes and I express my views about how I thought it was unfair that the people that stuck with it do not get to keep their slots. He stated he understood my concerns but 3GN nation felt this was the best policy. He advised me that they were going to opening the registration again soon and to keep a watch out. He also stated that only about 100 people were able to sign up for a match.

    Granted they are still going with the redo but I give props to 3GN for actually calling individuals that submitted concerns and trying to address them with a personal conversation rather then a blanket email.

    +1 for 3GN on that. I will be waiting to sign up again, must companies wouldn't have made phone calls.

    Since establishing this thread I have offered my email and phone to ALL. That offer still stands. Please use it if you have a question or concern. I will take the time to hopeful get you an answer.

    As for the train wreck on the match registration, I apologize and take responsibility...no one is more frustrated and upset about it than I am...but I am dedicated to making this work both in fairness and in logistics. Any one that knows me and or has participated in ANY event that I am part of can be attest they are treated fair and repectful.

    I am passionate about this sport and see all the wonderful things it offers to its participates...which certainly out weighs the "hassles". So be assured that at this moment 3Gunnation is working this problem...

    Please don't hesitate to reach out to me with your concerns...it does mean a lot to me and to 3GN, we are just trying to grow this game!

    Thanks for supporting this sport!

    Guys

    I have been shooting Charles tarheel matches and I can tell you that Charles is for making great matches for the shooters. He will do everything he can to make the regionals great matches that everyone will talk about after they are over. Everyone needs to hang on and wait until this is corrected and the regionals will be worth the wait.

    +1

  5. Any idea on what the yardage would be on the outer circle and top of the thick line?

    No. The lack if specs on the vx6 reticles is the one gripe I have with Leupold. I talked to two tech guys that had no answer and sent an email to tech support. So far no response to the email and one tech guy said he'd get back to me......still waiting. In my case it doesn't matter cause luckily the reticle turned out to my liking. Those that need more info for holdovers are left in the dark and unfortunately for Leupold probably look to other scope companies with better info. Great scope, but Leupold seems to be dropping the ball a bit.

    Have you tried the strelok smart phone app?

    I have with the SPR, it works great.
