elcan specterdr – Panasonic has one of the worst.

I haven’t seen the stock on an SKS Rifle Stocks personally except in pictures. Before cleaning. The first patch I ran through, and the last one. Some krud Kutter for the stock. A little TLC stuff for the commie lady! And when I was done with her. Not much difference, but much cleaner! Don’t worry my friend, now your have a proper home.

This is also a plus as Aimpoint optics are completely parallax free at 50 yards and greater. The target consists of (all sizes scaled for 50 yards): 1 MOA center ‘zero’ dot 2 or 4 MOA colored dot in either red or green that will correspond to the size of the optic’s dot Larger black ring to assist in centering the optic’s dot over the center of the target. Grid lines with click adjustment references and adjustment dial references I originally made these with a green dot to contrast against the red of the optic without similar colors ‘bleeding’ together. This worked well for me, but I had some friends who preferred a red dot on the target. Both are included, so use the one that works bet for your eyes. When the target is correctly placed at 50 yards, the optics dot will completely cover the colored portion of the corresponding target. The black ring will assist in correctly centering the optic over the target for a near perfect hold (depending on if you do your part). Just shoot your groups and use the adjustment references to quickly move your point of impact. UPDATE: I’ve updated the targets from what I originally with a more bold black ring at the request of some self-proclaimed old farts that had an issue clearly making it out. Examples: Download the targets in .pdf format HERE Just make sure your printer is set for 100% scaling and you should be good to go. I hope this can be useful to others. UPDATE (13 MAR 11): New 25 yard targets I worked up some 25 yard targets that should give you a 50/200 yard zero when used properly when you only have access to a smaller range. These were made to work with standard AR sight height (2.6″ over the bore) using 55 / 62g bullet trajectories, but should get you there for those using heavier grain bullets. I haven’t used them yet, but if someone is willing to be a guinea pig and try them out and give me some . Basically, place the target at 25 yards. Your point of aim should be at the colored / bold outlined portion of the target. Fire your group. Adjust the point of impact to the GRAY DOT in the middle of the target. If you follow the adjustment grid it will get you there. The math works out to give you a 50/200 yard zero. Be careful to keep the optic dot centered within the optic itself as much as possible when zeroing at this range as it is not entirely parallax free at 25 yards. 25 Yard Target Examples: The Aimpoint 25 yard target in .pdf can be downloaded HERE UPDATE (16 MAR 11): New generic 25 yard targets for use with other optics I’ve worked up some generic targets that users of other optics (EOTech, etc..) may find useful. The center colored dot is slightly larger than 1 MOA at 25 yards. There is a target for a 25/300 meter zero and also a target for a 50/200 yard zero. I’m not using an EOTech, so I cannot attest to how well these work. So anyone who gives them a try, just let me know if you have any suggestions.

I am going to throw this on the EE and let it go. If I ever decide to get into 3 gun, or build another carbine on which I need fast close range as well as longer range optics, this is what I will try. I can see much more utility here than an ACOG.

I would like to get a few pepper poppers and a swinging plate type of shooting target all for common hand gun rounds. I would also like to find some silhouette type targets in the shape of an animal such as a buffalo which can hold up to smaller caliber rife rounds. I know they are all easy to make, but when you don’t have a welder in your garage it can be kind of hard. Is there any place in Missouri I can find this at? AFSOC [Team Member] 10/25/2009 6:17:09 PM

AR4U, if you can hit cans accurately at short range with the EOTech but your groups get larger at 100yards, then IT IS YOUR SHOOTING, NOT THE EOTech.

I knew right away I wanted to do something different with it, but I did not want to spend $1000.00 tricking it out. I’ve invested too much in other weapons anyway. I wanted to keep it cheap and simple, yet make it into something different than a stock 10/22. I looked at some of the pictures in the 10/22 picture thread, and decided to go with an old school M14 Accessorieskind of look. I purchased a set of the Tech Sights for $55.00, a vented handguard and flash hider from CTD. The items arrived and I got to work. Installing the handguard was a bear. The securing ring was too wide to slip down into the forearm. I had to hand file grooves for it to fit snugly. But, now the thing is on and its not coming off unless someone takes vice grips and a blowtorch to it. I don’t really mind this fact because the vented guard does not interfere at all with field stripping and cleaning the weapon. The Tech Sights were simple. Getting the stock FSP out was a tad rough because I did not have a drift to do it with. I love the Tech Sight, but I did not like the empty area between the front of the rear sight and the barrel shroud. I thought of something cheap and easy. To fill the gap, I cut down the stock optic rail to about 3″ with a hacksaw, finished it with a file and sandpaper, and painted the end with M-New (subdued military insignia touch-up). I then secured it to the receiver using the stock screws. The flash hider is nice, but in order to get a good fit, I used some heat-resistant silicone caulk to slightly coat the inside of it before slipping it on. I made sure to put Loctite on the set screw before tightening it down. I am going to be adding an extended mag release, an extended bolt handle, a new bolt release, sling swivels, and a leather sling in the coming weeks. I wanted to keep it cheap, make it unique, and have it able to function as a good training platform for larger rifles. I must say I am happy with the results as well as the expense – this whole rifle set me back under $300.00!
And once charged, rechargeable Surefire Batteries lose the stored energy rather fast. The charging takes quite long and rapid chargers are expensive. Not only that, but continuous charging or frequent charge to “top off” the lost energy (without complete discharge) can destroy the battery. All these negative attributes have one root-cause: self discharge. Self-discharge means that a charged battery slowly discharges itself without any equipment consuming any current. This is the reason for rechargeable Surefire Batteries being sold in a discharged state.

The problem was that it didn’t shoot worth a damn. It sprayed about a 10" pattern at 100 yds with ball ammo. I thought that it was because of the fake flash suppressor, so I cut it off and had the stub recut in a lathe. Then the thing started shooting higher, and higher, and higher – until I ran out of adjustment in the sights. After about 100 rounds the headspace was growing dangerously because the bolt lugs were wearing. I called Springfield armory and one other company I can’t remember who now, They told me that it was junk and that they would not work on it. I was told that even the receiver was junk because the barrel threads were cut wrong. The wealth of info on the Internet did not exist at that time – so I took these guys word for it, and traded it for a pistol holster and $250!
EOTech is not as durable as Aimpoint. EOTech is easier to pick up initially. Magnifiers extend both down range nicely. Buy a Comp2 or 3 Aimpoint and you are at the same dollars as an EOTech. I went with durabilibty. I love my Aimpoint mtncrash1 [Team Member – Remington 870 Accessories
