Does anyone know of a company that will make or modify a custom height 30mm scope mount for an AR with 10MOA cant? My single piece is too high for my cheek weld at 1.4". My eyes natural center while on the gun is 1.174". Most mounts are 1.4 to 1.5" high except the Nightforce unimount which is...

I am re-purposing an AR-15 as a target rifle IOT save some barrel wear on my more expensive barrel burners. I typically purchase Leupolds MR/T, Trijicon's, etc but I am trying to keep the price down on this one. I was really interested in the VX-R Patrol 3-9 but I've heard a lot of people...

I have an 870 Express that I've had for about 15 years. It's always had hickups when ejecting shells from time to time. Recently though it will not eject low brass 2 3/4 inch shells...at all...even on the first shot. It will eject high brass 2 3/4 and 3" shells about 90% of the time. I know...

Thanks for the info guys! I may wait for the Ruger for another time. Comparing it to the Savage 10 Predator I feel I get a lot more gun for $100 more. Also, I remembered that I am not a fan of Ruger rotary magazines. When they jam...they JAM and are not fun to disassemble and reassemble in the...

I am looking for a new coyote rifle, but contrary to my standard SOP I am not trying to pour my life savings and kids college money into this new rifle. I want to spend $500 or less and am looking at the Ruger American Predator chambered in .22-250. I've handled one in the store but I'm not...

I think I am going to go with the DNZ mount. I do love GG&G. When I lived in Tucson I could just call them up and tell them what I needed and it would typically be built and ready by the end of the day or the next morning.

Man, I am thankful for the power of the internet. That's pretty much what I am thinking of!

I have no idea if such a thing exists...but I am looking for a one piece scope base with integrated 30mm rings for a Remington 700 Short Action. What I am thinking of is something like the Burris PEPR or the KAC one peice scope mount I have on my AR, but designed for a bolt action. So...

Mainly because I don't like to think if I don't have to. My scope is zero'd at 100, so it just makes it easier for me if everything is the same. Less thinking when under duress is better. Thanks for the link;

I threw a pair of Magpul MBUS Gen 2's on my new AR build, went to the indoor range and sighted in. Using a 25yd (max distance for the indoor range) target for a 100yd zero with a point of impact 1.2" off point of aim. The problem I ran into was I had to run the front sight post down nearly all...

Thanks guys!

No, not yet. Still need a few small parts and pieces installed before I take her to the range. I was thinking about just trying it out, but wanted to get some ideas and opinions so I spend minimal time messing around and the range and more time shooting. It's going to be a clean upper minus the...

I want to know what is the maximum distance I can mount my BUIS and how for apart is too far where they are no longer effective. I built a new upper with a 13.8" handguard on it. I know the longer the sight radius the better but it seems the front post is might small way out at the end of the...

Possible 3-Gun or practical shooting (forgot what it's actually called). More as a fun hobby to do when I can, not hard core crack-addict 3-Gunner. I forgot to add that I have settled on a midlength gas system and have a Spikes tungsten buffer in my lower. I am still trying to fully educate...

I have a Sparc on my 10/22 and a Strike Fire on my wife's Bushmaster. They are pretty much the same scope in my opinion. Things I like about the Strike Fire -Cheap -Robust enough for every day use. Banged it around a bit and still held zero. -Long battery life. -Ability to switch between red...
