Re: Vortex Viper PST

Good review. I own a PST and an HS (identical except for one has illumination). I also have two VX-3 Custom Grey Bull Precisions. You are dead on with the illumination, it isn't a great working system. In fact, I agree with all except the comment that it performs like a VX-3. Frankly, it really does...

I gotcha. Yeah, that is never good.

I love how slide fire includes a laminated copy of their ATF review with each stock. It keeps everyone safe. Perhaps SIG can do same?

Re: NRA life membership

But if they can't be effective, and NRA can, why would you choose them over NRA? I think that is a fair question.

That being said, I do give to other state and national gun groups as well.

Not to derail, but have you thought of sizing up 6.5-284 Lapua brass? I know a ton of BR and comp shooters that do that. Best brass on planet. Only problem is that your brass doesn't say 284 Win on bottom.

Re: Multiple NFA's

I have experienced that 22 LR cans should be used for 22LR firearms and 223 cans work well with 223 and 5.7. Cans for all three, well I haven't experienced any that work very well, particularly on SA guns.

That being said, I have not used any of the newer cans that have hit market in last few years.
