    Rifle Scopes New IOR scope ?

    The Last IOR scope I had was purchased about 5-6 yrs ago, it was a 6-24x 35mm tube model that had the old type turrets that had 9 MOA per rev and were a pain to zero out after sight in. It also had rings that had to be torqued to only 12 in/lbs or so, otherwise the paralax knob became hard to...

    Rifle Scopes Super Sniper observations

    Re: Super Sniper observations The optics must be alot better then their older SS scopes. I have one from about 4 yrs ago and it is below my 6-24 4200 tact. and way below my mk4 of same time period. Are the knobs better? I did all the tricks with the old ones like replace the o-ring with...

    AR-10 First shot high???

    Re: AR-10 First shot high??? I have had this problem with precision AR-15s to some degree over the years. Usually the first rd flier adds about 1/4-1/2" to the groups size. Just the other day, I think on AR15, someone was asking about accurizing a M1A. Most over there said they are nice...

    How to tune a handload for good chrono numbers?

    Re: How to tune a handload for good chrono numbers? I shoot BL-C2 under 50 vmax in my 20 varmint AR with those primers and cases. Those loads have 6-7 fps SDs. I bought 16 lbs of varget last year when it was hard to come by and I had two 308 that loved it. Now both of those 308 are wearing...

    How to tune a handload for good chrono numbers?

    I have a recce-style AR that I built and it really prints good on paper so far at 100yds, I have not had the time or weather to shoot at farther ranges yet. My load is a 69 smk pushed by 25.5 grn varget in a win case and lit by a CCI br-4 primer. This load is nice on paper- so far 1/2-3/4"...

    Rifle Scopes Optic for recce build

    I need a light weight optic for a recce build. 3-12 or 4-14 variable, 1" or 30mm with shorter length(13") and lightest weight(<20oz.) being important, and Mil-dot for holdovers. I have several 13-15 lb rifles and they are great but I built this one for light weight coyote calling rifle. I...

    what was wrong with savages?

    Re: what was wrong with savages? I've got both and like both of the savage and rem. The bolt is a little looser on the savage when it is open compared to a rem, but just a little. My comparision is between 3 savages and a 700 5R. The remington would have just as much slop in the bolt if it...

    Who sells the coolest Savage Furniture?

    Re: Who sells the coolest Savage Furniture? I have a PDC Custom stock on a 243 fast twist. I would say this would be real similar to AICS minus the skins. All aluminum, fully adjustable, uses AR grips (comes with a PSG-1 style), takes AI mags, and has sling swivels on the side. Plus custom...

    Most accurate powders for the 22-250

    Re: Most accurate powders for the 22-250 Try 39 grns of H380 under a 50 grn Vmax in win cases and cci br2 primer. This load has always shot great in various 22-250 that I have owned over the years. It also works pretty good with 55 grn sierra blitz kings. Last year a buddy got a savage...

    Re: Indiana gunsmith Geoff Corn. Have not had any work done by him but he was recommended to me, by a good friend that had him build his duty rifle(EPD swat) and I have a few buddies that have had brakes and barrel work done by him and I am impressed. Plus he is about an hour from me, the...

    MISSING RIFLES

    Re: MISSING RIFLES That sucks, I know how it feels though. I had a OD framed G19 stole out of my mustang. I remember posting about it on AR15.com a couple years ago and the response I got was that it was my fault for having the pistol in a small case in the rear floorboard (practically...

    Range Report 168 BTHP @2670 fps to 1000 yards?

    Re: 168 BTHP @2670 fps to 1000 yards? I don't usually shoot much past 750 with my 308s, but one day I was bored and tried it. 168smk at 2690 out of a rem 5R lands HP first regularly at 950 yds in the following conditions. Altitude is 485 ft and the temp was in the mid 60's, humidity was in...
