    Rifle Scopes Caution with Leupold scopes

    Ya, and the debris is unfortunate, but honestly it happens. It sounds like they made that right. So good on them.

    Rifle Scopes Caution with Leupold scopes

    That's the thing, it's not a problem to fix. Either you didn't notice it at first, or maybe the debris was in the original erector system which maybe they replaced the erector assembly and this symptom was more noticeable in the new erector? I guess I just don't understand why it matters if it...

    Rifle Scopes Caution with Leupold scopes

    So, because it wasn't to your LIKING, although it performed, the scope is a Turd and leupold sucks? C'mon brother. Let's be fair here.

    Rifle Scopes Caution with Leupold scopes

    You are correct, people able to notice the symptom would likely prove uncommon. But it's still there. Every single one has it. It's not an issue, because it's not an issue. I bet if you took those FFP scopes and paid close attention at the edge of your field of view on a grid target, you would...

    Rifle Scopes Caution with Leupold scopes

    I guess I'm slightly confused. Leupold cleaned the debris out for you. The Mark 8 tracked, held zero, and performed with no issues. It exhibited a symptom of a FFP, that is in all FFP scopes, and your blasting a company because they told you it was a non-issue. When, at the same time there are...

    Rifle Scopes Caution with Leupold scopes

    If your having 'reticle jumping' issues on a SFP scope, this is COMPLETELY different than on a FFP because of the location of the reticle. Just wanted to make sure to keep the two separate.

    Rifle Scopes Caution with Leupold scopes

    I have briefly searched the threads here on the Hide, as well as Google and this topic of 'FFP Reticle Jump' seems to come up quite often. In a very short amount of time, I have found numerous threads regarding NF, S&B, Vortex, Bushnell, Kahles, etc. All FFP scopes, where the users are...

    Tuebor Precision Actions?

    I've got a Tuebor Raider on the way for my 7mm-300 build, going in a KRG W3 Chassis. If I can figure out how, I will post pictures when I finally get it built

    Should I lap a one piece mount?

    With my experience, which is likely less than a lot of guys on here. BUT, if you buy a set of quality rings, whether 1pc, or 2pc; the machining tolerances now days are generally so precise, that lapping is no longer necessary, as it may have been in the 'olden days' where machining was not as...

    Rifle Scopes How does Leupold measure their STD base and rings?

    I personally wouldn't, simply because 1.) it will void any warranty you would have from Leupold on the Rings and Bases, and 2.) that will make them really permanent... lol. IF you insist on doing that, I would definitely recommend making sure you are able to zero the scope on the rifle first...

    Rifle Scopes How does Leupold measure their STD base and rings?

    I would recommend checking your spam folder for a response from them. Leupold bases are appx 1/8" Thick. If you are going with the Mark 4 10x40mm, and STD LR Base, I would recommend STD Medium rings from Leupold. I would also recommend against welding the rings to the base.

    Manners Composite Stocks Estimated Lead Times

    I ordered 2 EH-1A's with Mini-Chassis on February 8, 2017. I have received 1 so far... haven't heard anything on the other one... going on 8 months now. The one I did receive is gorgeous. Can't rush perfection. Very pleased with the quality, and fit of the one I do have. Defiance action fits...
