I have a March 5 - 40 on my tactical rimfire so I will just talk about that. Firstly, eyebox. Set your scope up correctly and you will have no issues. Set up any scope wrong, and you will get problems. For positional shooting this means taking shots during practice time in multiple...

I have both. I use the March 3x24x42 on a very accurate bolt gun out to 600m with no problems. For 300, it is a no brainer. I would reinforce GoingTheDistance and get a focus wheel. I'd flip the eye box talk on its head, what the March does, and the 28x really does, is tell you when your...

Final shot - first try with night vision.

Sadly no - and I really don't want to take those skins off again (and as version 1 the cutting is rough)! But it is 3D puzzle of making the cross bolt holes, drilling, bending a 90 deg for the recoil pad and cutting for the action footprint. I thought I would need to fill and steel bed the...

The key thing to be aware of is the barrel band and the tang are on the same level so you end up bedding metal to metal. I had a benchmark accuracy point for this project using Tenex and it met, then exceeded my requirement. I used some AICS Long Action skins that were in the spares cabinet...

Until you spend $10 on square bar at the hardware and build your own. Thank you COVID lockdown.

Wow! This has to be the best post ever concerning a scope malfunction ever! A new throw lever is just a 3D print away in 2021.

The one I got to play with really "popped" at the 18 power point and was very usable in the 10 - 15 power range for sling shooting.

The March 10-60 is a SFP scope that is designed for, and excels in, F-Class style shooting. The High Master glass is very nice indeed and gives the pop factor we gave, but makes shooting is heavy mirage a lot easier than other brands. I have my two NXS 22x that I used to love, and want to...

COVID has stopped people travelling (not to mention one of the few lawful excuses to leave the house was to walk your dog) and their was a rush (literally) in March buying every puppy in sight. Collies were getting silly prices then ($1000 to $1500) then they disappeared off the market as...

I saw the PII a few hours after I posted the comment. I want the PI with the spoon handle. Oh, and for our international friends, Border Collie puppies are being advertised for Aust $5000 to $6000 at the moment.

Try and find one in Australia at the moment. COVID has sent the price of guns and dogs through the roof!

Then there is the problem. Basically I did everything wrong, CZ action, $8.90 piece of metal, dermal cuts, no bedding. But with Tenex the groups are gob smacking. The winter light at the moment means you can watch the bullet beyond 50m and through the March they arc into the target (and you...
