Call Sightron and ask for Steve, He shoots F class I'am sure he can give you the straight scoop on which reticule would be best

I have one and like it alot. All the adjustments you could ever want, a very confortable chassis. Also check out Eliseo's bi-pod its just super slick. Glad I went with it and probably best of all Mark Gordon plumbed the whole thing. He knows his way around these things.

I have one with MIL-MIL setup Good glass, repeats very well, nice firm clicks. I usually leave it set on 24X. My only complaint the side focos is a little touchy. I just sent it back for a reticule change to the MOA-2 and 1/8 MOA turrents they called yesterday and said it would ship back by the...

Anyone have experience with the civilian version of the BAR. I recently acquired a 7mm Rem. Mag. I've heard these can be a real bear to load for something about the need for extra small base sizing die and other things not normally expected with a bolt gun. looking for some help before I start...

Re: Any real benefits to 6mm SLR? I ended up going with the 6SLR my reasoning was the 30 degree shoulder and the longer neck. I can load the 115's out to 2.9+ in the Arctic mags. I just ran a bunch of brass (243) through a Fl sizer die and its ready to go. Now if Mark @ Short Action Customs...

Doing some research on a new build and while looking at various triggers. I notice X-treme shooting systems has a couple of actions that caught my eye. Has anyone used these if so what are your thoughts. I've heard nothing but praise for their triggers and was wondering if the actions are of the...

Re: Hornaday 6.5 match 140grain BTHP Thanks for the info. I've got my come ups out to 670 yards so I should be able to compare. I'll start a little low and bring it up to my present loading and if all goes well I'll try the side by side comparison. Thanks again Kennysong

Anyone tried them yet? My son gave me some for father's day. I've been very happy with the 140 Amax's out of my 260 Rem. Just looking for some insight from people who have tried them.

Re: Browning Hi-Power: First, probably not last. When you get to the point that the trigger needs some work contact Don Williams @ Action Works. I had him do a 40 cal.MKIII for me a few years back with the mag safety it breaks at 4 lbs but feels lighter. He offers a lot of services for the...

Re: Nesika actions I talked to Chad Dixon earlier in the week about a build and he highly recommeded a Nesika action. Good luck.

Re: Eley ammo in Volquartson I just checked my stash of Eley. The sport appears to be a harder coating than the Tenex. While the Eley Sport groups ok out of my Volquartson, the Russian stuff seems to be best of all in mine. The Wolf Match Extra has the extra greasy stuff on the bullets.

Re: what rings for vortex on a cz 455? I think you'd be fine with that setup. One word of caution put some lead shot in the fastner holes of the adapter they will keep the set screws from nicking up the factory dovetail. I did this to mine and it worked great. I think it was a # 7-1/2 shot...

Re: what rings for vortex on a cz 455? On my 453 American I used a weaver adapter made by DIP, a set of Burris Sig. Zee rings ( the tall versions) The Vortex scope with a fifty mm Objective lens fits like a glove maybe a 1/16" clearance.

Re: Have you seen this type of powder thrower? I bought one in the early seventies it works very well with ball and flake type powders. the longer stick types not so well it tends to cut them.

Re: Truing Ruger M77 Tang Safety Contact Jim See @ Center Shot Rifles. He's doing one for me a nice guy to deal with. Kenny
