    Rifle Scopes Pick a new scope for me

    Hey guys, I got a new rifle the other day (6.5-06 on a Rem 700, McM stock, 26" Krieger tube) and I need some glass for it. Here is what I am looking for: Relatively light, nothing over 20 oz. Adjustable parallax. Nothing over 3.5x on the low end. Lifetime warranty. I was thinking Leica's ER...

    Opinions on Leupold EFR Rimfire

    Re: Opinions on Leupold EFR Rimfire I have two, they are fine scopes for a hunting rifle, but really lacking for serious target use. Keep that in mind.

    40X HELP

    New to the 22lr, What to expect from at 40x ?

    Re: New to the 22lr, What to expect from at 40x ? I put 6 rounds of Lapua Midas+ into a ~1/4" cluster at 100 yards one day. The other 4 shots in the string opened the group to around an inch (shooter error.) Wolf ME, Eley Team and Lapua Center X have all been pretty consistent performers...

    Where can I buy the "rest" of the CMP 40X rimfire?

    Re: Where can I buy the "rest" of the CMP 40X rimfire? Remington might be able to get you some of the other parts. Last I heard though, the bolt stop Remington sells for the 40x rimfires doesn't work properly.

    .22LR Target Shooting

    Re: .22LR Target Shooting Where can I buy one of these consistent .250" @ 50y Savages? I have a 40XB, 541C, Annie 64 and a 10/22 for trade, they must all be defective, as none of them are up to the task. [sarcasm off]

    Re: Chronoing the 22LR: Eley vs RWS Interesting find Carter, especially since R50 is specifically designed for 50 yard competition. According to Rifleman's Guide to Rimfire Ammunition, the author had a SD of 25.19 fps with R-50, while R-100 had a SD of 5.36 fps, and shot 'better' at 50 yards...

    Some questions about the history of my new 40x

    Re: Some questions about the history of my new 40x Cool. What is the finished product going to look like? Factory or aftermarket stock? Are you keeping the barrel or replacing it? It's interesting that it is a 'B' model, I'd of guessed that the stripped barreled actions were the early 721...
