    Question for the Old Time Knight Guys

    I know I has this answered at one point in time but I cannot seem to find it on here. Bought my Dad a square receiver MK-85 .54 cal with a 26 inch barrel. Serial number is only four digits. I thought we identified the barrel as a Numrich because the crown is convex not concave. 6 Lands and...

    AR bulid

    Built my self an AR-10 chambered in 243 Winchester. I'm perplexed by the fact that it is shooting 6 inches high at 100 yds. I have the scope mounted with a Vortex 1 pc. AR mount and it's kind of high. If I remount with normal rings and bring the scope down will this solve my issue or make it worst?
