Your budget and requirements make your request almost impossible
-
Good place. Used to go all the time when i lived up in
-
Bump. New one shows up Mon so if no interest here, ill be posting elsewhere.
-
Ordered the new ones today so these are officially for sale. New ones deliver next week so these will get hauled away if no one wants them. Make offer.
-
I try not to buy junk.. but i am selling one of my laser range finders if your interested
-
Ok, So im guessing youre not setup individually with the optics manufactures but with a distributor that carries the majority. Good to know. I just ordered a bunch of Vortex stuff. I haz issues
-
what pack are you getting?
-
Depending on optics of course. Which manufactures are you setup to sell?
-
Ive purchased from DVOR before.. no issues what so ever.
-
Nice plinker ya got there.Will be fun for sure.

Going to be purchasing a new HE Front load set in the next week so these will be going away. Whirlpool set is about 7yrs old and actually still has the blue plastic on the screen from unpacking new as well as tape on the corners from when they were new in box. Dryer works perfectly fine Washer has a small leak in underneath that seems to come and go. Usually only when spinning a load that gets off balance. I patched it once with some JbWeld on the plastic but the out of balance seems to have gotten it again recently. I just keep it sitting in one of washer drip pans but im sure 15min and some jb and it would be fine. when I patched it, it literally took 5 min. $100 for the pair, you pickup - London Groveport area. Quick pics I snagged this morning. Some dust on top but thats normal.The blue film is what comes on them new, i just never peeled it off. If I wipe the lint off the top of the dryer it would look brand new. Anyway
-
Ill give you $1 to not play any of them...x-mas music gets so annoying..
-
BAR.. Beautiful.. Tax stamp version or copy? Either way.. pretty sharp and a beautiful piece of history.
-
Sounds good. It will be about 2 weeks before I actually sell it so you have time if interested. Otherwise I have another site I will be posting it on and would expect it to go quick there.

Not sure if anyone here is looking but figured I would give first chance. I have the Bushnelle Elite 1500 with ARC (Camo) that I will most likely be selling in the next 2 weeks. Ive ranged out to 1340yards with these but like all range finders, the daytime conditions and target reflectivity will depend on your max range. Ive never really had a problem getting to 1K with fresh batteries. This is the exact model and will come with the semi hard case, neck strap, etc. Looking for 350. And I take care of my stuff so they are like new. Ive never carried them outside of their case in order to protect the lenses. Heck I think I may still have the original box they came in and warranty card. Bought them new about 2.5-3 years ago. No scuffs, dents, scratches, etc. Perfect condition. http://www.overstock.com/Sports-Toys/Bushnell-Elite-1500-ARC-Laser-Rangefinder/3194013/product.html

Congrats. Looks like a good setup and nice shooting!. Do you have a can for it yet? If you want a giggle factor try about 9.5-10.5 grains of trailboss behind a 180 hornady roundnose for a nice subsonic round good to about 250-300. Where do you shoot out to 500 at? Im hoping to do some shooting this weekend now that I have all my targets setup. Depending on FP in the field, I can get 100-1000yards. My targets..I changed to using 2 straps to reduce the risk of ricochets.

Agreed. I guess the real point I was trying to make was that if youre just getting in the LR shooting game, go with a round that will transition and save yourself a lot of time having to work up another load and spend more money down the road. If your gun likes the FGMM 175 or BlackHills 175 and youre not reloading, then stick with one of those. If youre reloading, I'd say stick with the 175 SMK, 178Amax, 155 Lapua Scenar, or 168 Amax depending on what you want to spend per round. Fazer, I was always a bit baffled by the liability issue surrounding handloads. I understand it and at the same time I dont. They will let you use a suppressor which can change your POI +-3" up/down and +-2" LR but they wont let you handload ammo that will give you better accuracy? And if Im not mistaken there are some rules around adjusting triggers as well?

Inaccurate advice is being given and it drives me crazy when that happens, thats all. Im just a little guy.

Wow, Thats your article. You reference snipershide, then you try and pull that site off as your "gold reference" ..(Rem 168 Match.. really!) I dont even need to put anymore time into this thread because those that are educated just realized that you proved that you dont know what your talking about. But hey, at least you can quote 1 article that is a paragraph long from a site that doesnt do a thing in long range shooting. What you just did was the equivalent of giving a Volvo owner the repair manual for a 79 pinto wagon and actually thinking it makes sense. Thank you for that, you saved me a lot of time. Ive tried to give you some slack but you just wont give up. Try this forget the words" gold standard match 308 ammo" and do some research on ammo, and ballistics and actually learn something and learn what ammo is best at distance, not what ammo has a stupid title that you want to stick with.. Again maybe its confusion or you just cant represent your thoughts well but say we call the 168 "the gold standard match 308 ammo" That doesnt mean anything about how it performs. We are telling you, and anyone that shoots past 700-800 yards with a 308 will tell you that most 168 rounds (especially up until about 1-2 years ago.) destabilize and fall on their face around 750-800 yards depending on DA. FYI, DA stands for Density Altitude..

I bet if you set the desicant on the bottom after the heater is on it it may go quicker. Would be a cool test to do.. Remember, this applies to safes that are not sealed very well at the bottom and lower edges.
-
Check out the Eva Dry E-500.... About $20 each and rechargeable for unlimited number of times. Desiccant is blue when dry and turns to pink when it gets wet. They work pretty well.

You do realize the military uses 175 right? Its NOT the gold standard.. Maybe its simple confusion on your part but lets forget the "gold standard" comment for the moment. Can you get a good load with the 168, sure depending on which manufacture's 168 it is and design. Do most people who shoot LR use the 168. NOPE. They use 1 of the rounds that Walther already mentioned. The 175SMK is the primary load for the majority of shooters that shoot past 700-800 yards. Im done arguing with you but youve had 2 separate people tell you youre wrong and youre still arguing. Remember, its not just about weight, 155, 168, 175, 180, 208, etc. Its about the shape of the bullet and do they transition from supersonic to subsonic while maintaining stability.. Some shapes do, Some dont, thats physics.. Those that I have personal experience with that do. 155 Lapua Scenar 168 Hornady Amax 175 SMK Those that dont. The older 168 Hornadys (Not Amax) The reason your getting shit about it is because up until about a 1-2 years ago, one of the only 168 grain 308 bullets that would transition was the hornady amax, there are some new 168 weight versions by some manufactures that work well but it has never been the goto bullet and anyone that knows anything about them, has used them, experience, etc knows they had a problem. If you stand behind your statement so much, go ahead and start a thread on Snipershide asking for an answer. IF you prove me wrong ill give a formal apology, if youre proved wrong, you do the same.

Big Dog Steel is in toledo. Great targets. My targets are AR400 but Im not spending $100+ per stand on top of target price to leave out in a field where they could get stolen. Ive got about $12 in each on of the stands I made and they are cheap, easy to setup, difficult to remove without tools, etc.

Temp and moisture have nothing to do with each other. I guarantee you if you had a color changing desiccant style device, it would gather enough moisture in 1 month that it would need to be recharged. Spend the $50 and save the hassle down the road of surface rust on your firearms.
-
Heaters have a bit of their own problem. Depending on safe location, all they do is draw cold damp air in from the bottom, and pump heat out the top. I would seal it up good, stick with desicants, and be done with it.
