My eyes are mature...OK, old. I wear bi-focal contacts and reading glasses too if the light is dim. I'm thinking about getting LASIK. I realize I'll have to use reading glasses. Question is, will I be able to use my scope without glasses? Chris

I'm shooting a Rem 700 in 6.5 Lapua in a dusty environment. It currently has a Jewell trigger. The dust isn't as powdery as in the Sandbox but fine none the less. At the end of the day, last round, squeeze the trigger...and nothing. It doesn't even feel like the sear cocked. I did some...

Any suggestions for a quality smith in VA to thread a Savage rifle? Thanks.

I shot in a tactical .22LR rifle match at the Catawba Valley Rifle & Pistol Club in NC on Saturday. It humbles you to shoot a .22 out to 210 yards and to have a 10 year old shoot your pants off. Moral to the story? Practice more, have better ammo, and a much bigger scope so you can see that...

I got this scope for my .22 trainer. While Midway provides numbers for the lens caps there is nothing for a sunshade. Weaver is NO help. But I finally found one that may be readily available. Its a Nikon RSH-11. Fits perfectly. The one I got was $12 at a show, no idea of what retail is...

I just listed a 20 MOA base for a Remington 541 in the Optics & Accessories For Sale section for $25 shipped. It was modified for another rifle so don't expect brand new. The base was made, and modified, by EGW.

Just a quick word about CDI. What great service! And a quality product. I sent a stock down to Jeff to be inlet. The price was very fair and the service quick. In case you are ordering from the boys in AZ, they inlet for CDI too. From here on out, only CDI bottom metal on my guns.

I haven't given up on my 77/22 but I just got a Remington 504 HB that will be used as a trainer. What a gun. Yes, they do have some problems but the weight (8.5 lbs) and feel are great. I even got an extra stock from Numerich for $46. What a deal. A couple of points that will save some...

I have an IBA 1000 stock that is basically a Medalist. Would it be worth drilling out the aluminum bedding block to put in pillars before skim bedding it?

Anybody interested in setting up a group buy for a Tactical stock to fit the 77/22? I've been looking at Boyd's Tacticool and think it may fill the bill. I emailed them for details and will post as soon as they answer.

Suggestions for a tactical stock (m40, etc) for a Ruger 77/22, not 10/22. Don't want to go the mcMillan route due to cost and time. Material not important. Thanks

In these days of poor service from all sorts of companies I was amazed at the service I got from Clay Mitchell at Rifle Basix. I have an old trigger that wasn't working so I dropped them a quick email relating the problem and requesting an RMA for service. Within the hour Clay sent me an email...

I just got a pair of Leupold 8x42 Green Ring Rogue Binoculars in an NRA auction. What a GREAT deal. Check em out at: http://swfa.com/Leupold-8x42-Green-Ring-Rogue-Binocular-P12771.aspx I have a pair of Zeiss binoculars and can honestly say that I can't tell much difference, except for the...

The jury is still out on MIL/MOA but there seems to be a choice coming for Premier Reticle Scopes. I was recently at a long range rifle course and there was some pretty hot debate about MIL vs MOA. When the shooter is MIL and the spotter is MOA there is bound to be confusion. I just got off...

Blacksmith and I left the comfort of our Virginia hills and flew to Texas, turned left and drove to the Badlands Tactical Training Facility (2+ hrs north of Dallas) to take their BASIC PRECISION (SNIPER) RIFLE COURSE. This was a first class experience. The class was mostly LEOs with a mix of...
