98% of people never fire their weapons at night time, especially in civilian life. They have no idea what the flash signature looks like at night or in a dark room…. If you’re one of those people, I encourage you to go out some night where you can legally do it and see what your firearms look like when you fire them at night. Depending on the caliber and barrel length it can be quite shocking if you’ve never done this.
Over the last 25 years, I have tried probably a dozen different muzzle devices made to mitigate a flash signature and there’s just something about the three prong design, especially the Surefire. I believe the length of the prongs are longer than any other three prong design that I have found and this makes it lessen the flash greatly. Suppressors are getting easier and easier to obtain. It’s not like it was even 10 or 15 years ago, but if you don’t wanna do the paperwork and you’re just worried about the flash, I would spend the 90 dollars and buy the SF flash hider, and go out at night and try it with it and without, and you will be impressed. I’ve run it on 556 up to my 300 win mag and it works GREAT on the FLASH not designed to help with recoil so much.

Optics planet gave me an excellent deal on an excellent scope. I figured with the sale price they were gonna give me I would roll the dice and give it a “shot” since I normally run NF and even a few Zeiss.
This scope is easily as comparable to my NF optics. If I had to pick one thing that could be a little better is that the clicks are not as tactile as I would like. I think they’re just a little bit mushy for me and my liking, other than that, it’s right on par with the quality of an ATACR without the weight.
These are my opinions and my opinions alone. I’ve been shooting long range for over 15 years now and my wife and I own a FFL

I’m a huge Lapua fan. I run their brass whenever I can. First off, I really like the plastic boxes that used to come with it. They were handy for storing all kinds of shooting stuff. Now they come in a paper box with a paper case holder. IMO EVERYTHING is made cheaper nowadays. I believe that this brass is not quite as good as the brass I used to buy a decade ago. However, it is good brass and I will continue to run it. I have great luck with Lapua brass. I use it to run my subsonics with trail boss and my supersonics with 4064 and BLC2. You may want to inspect each piece for burrs, I found 3 that needed a lil attention out of my last batch. I do not shoot bench rest, but I am a precision shooter. Some guys are much more picky than I am. If I can keep my extreme spread under 20 fps and shoot half inch groups at 100 yard that’s good enough for me.

I’m running these Norma in my 300WM and love the load.
