I bought this wind meter for the Nikon Spot on App on my Android and I Pad. Our range has no wind gauge, and there is a pretty consistent wind in that area. So far in trying it with my Android it works pretty effectively. Look forward to seeing if it improves my shooting accuracy in windy conditions. For $29.99 it didn't break the Bank. NIKON SPOT ON BALLISTIC WIND METER FOR APPLE & ANDROIDSpot On™ Ballistic Wind MeterNikon’s all-new Spot On™ Ballistic Wind Meter plugs directly into the headphone port found on almost all smart phones. The Spot On Wind Meter takes an accurate reading of the wind speed and direction and inputs the data directly into the Spot On Ballistic Match Technology™ Application that every serious hunter and shooter should have on their smart phone. Now, the Spot On app not only provides the precise aiming point on your reticle to compensate for distance, but thanks to the new Spot On Wind Meter, you now can also compensate for wind drift.Accurate: Wind speed, direction, average & gust measurementsCompatible: Works with iPhone, iPod and all major Android devicesFlexible: Reads in meters per second, miles per hour, and Beaufort scaleReal-Time Wind Speed

Welcome from Wisconsin and good luck with the build.

What make magnifier is that on the top one?

Realized after I posted it had that integrated rail. Nice! Guessing it is solid as a rock! Personally I haven't got to a trust level with quick detach mounts, but a lot of people swear the LaRue ones actually work quite well.

Sorry for your loss brother. It's never an easy thing to lose a loved one. I lost my sister to a similar situation a year and a half ago. Your mom was blessed though to have a son who loved and cared for her like you did. Our prayers are with you.

Beantown, I have aBurris 3x10 Fullfield with the Ballistic Plex recticle on my AR10T 16" Carbine. I like it a lot. I haven't messed around with the recticle farther than 185 yards with a 6 mile wind, I hit the clay pigeon on the second shot, first one was no more than an inch off hitting it. Good clear optics, very close to my Nikon Monarch. I picked mine up for Half Price discontinued at Cabela's- $125 if I remember correctly. Consistently shoot near 1 MOA at 100 yards using FGMM or equivalent. Put maybe 400 rounds through it and the scope is holding it's zero. I am using the Burriss PEPR non quick detach mount. I took the 308 chart with precise drops for each aimpoint it came with and taped it to the stock for quick reference.

Is building his own motorcycle line as well.

Nice collection. I need to get a Wilson operating rod and recoil spring for their officer model. I want to see if I can retrofit it to another brand I have.

Also, take a look at the Bassett Machine Mounts. I really like mine. Simplicity.

Nice, nice nice 1911. I am just getting to know mine. Just have to compete with my son for it at the range. As you can see above, Toolndie just got an LRB. I am happy with my Springfield Armory.

Those of you who have and carry big revolvers know what a load they are on your hip. My pants want to head south unless I use a dedicated separate belt. On a friends suggestion I got a Diamond D chest holster for my 4" barrel Model 29. Gotta say I am impressed. Made to custom fit a number of pistol models in Wasilla Al, hometown of Sarah Palin, it is the most comfortable rig I have found. I really don't notice the weight at all. It is, however not a cc rig. I will be retiring my Bianchi X-15 shoulder rig and my belt holsters. Take a look at their web site. https://www.diamonddcustomleather.com/?gclid=CjwKEAiArIDFBRCe_9DJi6Or0UcSJAAK1nFvyseH5cy3zBZtN1Ij1CDu2_b8ag7jp22ZD-T90aAM2BoCsd_w_wcBkk

Get some time I would like to hear why. maybe put it down in our Service Rifles sub thread.

Give your buddy a high five or a fist dap for me. Need more like him.

According to the specs that is direct gas impingement. Change your mind about that?

Welcome from 308AR Midwest-also known as Wisconsin.

Great idea Sketch! Nice job on them.

Going to put it in this week. Couldn't find my punch set so I picked one up today. If it works well in the Colt I am going to get another for an Oly Arms AR15 I am modding. Ran into a bargain bin closeout that had a picatinny rail hand guard, a collapsable stock and a carbine buffer in it. $40 later I can dress up my old Plinker Plus! A better trigger would round it out.

Have you checked out Primary Arms? They make a 2nd focal plane 1x8

Welcome from Wisconsin 1911. A lot of 1911 45 fans on this forum. Some of us like oth the 308 AR's and M1A's/M14's. They both have their strong points..

Might be an inside job. National Park employees aren't well paid.

Welcome from Northern Wisconsin. Hoping for an early spring this year, maybe by July. But that's Wisconsin.

Welcome from Northern Wisconsin!

Nice looking setup . Interested in how the 338 round performs. A buddy has an AR10T rifle in 338 Federal, and I think he may be in the market to unload it unfired. I may have to step in and help him out.

You want to see shot up road signs, go to rural Alaska. And if your car breaks down on the side of the road, you got about a week grace period to move it. After that one day there will be a bullet hole in it. Next day 20. Then it's fair game for any one driving by.

Naw, I am a year and a half short of 70 and I can still tell the difference. Besides, if your not into reloading, I can always give you my address to ship that brass to. That way it won't take up room in your basement.
