Have you found a throw lever for those other than the 3D printed ones from MK machine? Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

No worries! My app glitched and triple posted a couple posts back, so [emoji2369] Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

The rifle I'm shooting right now has an rt6 on it. I like it, but I think I'd like something different more. The bdc reticle in it is calibrated for 55gr bullets running 3200fps, and I can't even get close to that with my 16" barrel. With 69gr bullets, they line up at 2900fps, which I also don't think I can do. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Thank you for putting it that way. That's way more productive. I hadn't really considered shooting factory, but I easily could with a plug in the shotgun and downloading my pistol mags to 15 rounds. I'm going to shoot a couple some rifles with 1x optics and a couple different 1-6x optics next weekend, and I'll decide from there. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

The guy who recommended the Athlon prism scope is a huge fan of their products. I believe that's what is on his practical division rifle. How would you compare it to the other scopes in the price range? Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Apparently my post got cut off. I guess the less than symbol does that... Most of the matches we shoot are less than 125yds, but we shoot some state level matches that have shots out to 425yds. I feel like I would be faster 90% of the time with a dedicated 1x optic, but everyone in the practical division uses a 1-6 or 1-8, so there has to be something to that. I also don't want to give up the help on those rare long shots. Someone give me some insight please

Hey guys, I know this topic gets thrown around a lot, so I'm sorry. When I started shooting 3-gun last year, I knew so little about what i needed or wanted in gear that it made buying easy. After a year of shooting, I figured I would know exactly what I want, but it's just harder to decide now. I'm picking up a second rifle because my girlfriend and I have been sharing one, and I can't decide on the optic to put on it. We use a Burris RT6 now, and it's fine. I like the glass in the vortex stuff better though. I'm also strongly considering a prism scope. Most of the matches that we shoot are Right now the candidates are: Vortex strike eagle 1-6 or 1-8 (1-8 isn't as clear on 8x as 1-6 on 6x) Primary Arms 1-6 Athlon Midas BTR 1x Prism scope Vortex spitfire 1x (super clear, great reticle clarity, and almost disappears in my FOV) Vortex Sparc (only $80 if I bundle it with the rifle) Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Got it! Heated it with a torch and used an open end wrench to get a solid square hit on it. So much junk under it. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

The gas block on my rifle is super stuck. any suggestions for getting it off? It's currently soaking in Kroil. I tried hitting the back of it with a dead deadblow hammer with no luck. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

My thoughts too. And they have a package deal through the end of the month with either a sig romeo 5 or a vortex sparc ar for $730. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Hey guys, have any of you had any experience with Ruger's MPR for 3-gun? I'd love to have something nicer, but I'm trying to keep a tight budget. It seems like a fairly well featured rifle for the $650 that sportsmans outdoor superstore has them up for right now. If you know of any reliability issues or quality control issues, let me know. I don't love the 2 stage trigger, or the comp, but an 18" 5R barrel, rifle length gas system, and a slim 15" handguard is a good start Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

I never even considered zeroing like that. :facepalm: before 3 gun, bdc reticles were foreign to me. Definitely setting that up when I check my zero before the next match. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

It's on the list. I'm shopping for an entire new rifle actually. My girlfriend and I shoot on a snug budget because we're buying a cnc mill in the spring, so we actually both share a cheap diamondback db15 with some upgrades, and it's really hard on the rifle. I'm considering the ruger ar556 mpr so I can buy-in for cheap, and upgrade over time. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
