This optic is basically "like new". It was mounted to a rifle that I never used much, and have since sold. I'm not looking for any trades. Will ship anywhere in the US. Paypal preferred. If you have any questions I'd be happy to answer them.

I definitely don't have to have one. I didn't even know they existed until just recently so I wanted to find out more about them. I figured if they reduce recoil and help the shooter maintain a visual on their target all while not causing any accuracy issues then why not go with clamp on style?

I know nothing of the muzzle brake world, so I'm in the process of researching. I've stumbled onto clamp on style brakes, and I would love to get some feedback from someone that owns one or has tried one.

I have a Remington 700 .300 Win Mag that I would like to have a muzzle brake installed on. I would need the barrel threaded and the brake added. My current rifle has a medium or possibly a light barrel (not sure), and I was wondering if I got a brake for the current barrel would that same...

Congrats on the new offspring! - Is that a suppressor on there? I keep seeing similar things on the end of barrels. Is it a suppressor with some sort of cover over it?

Thank you for the reply! So far I haven't had enough time behind the rifle to get a sense of the accuracy. I'm doing load development so I've had some tight groups and some not so tight groups. haha - It's good to know what the rings are. I should have asked when they put them on, but at the...

Yeah I'd rather not purchase new rings and base if I can help it, but if the one's that the gun store put on when I bought the gun are junk, then I have no problem upgrading them. But yeah, if I could spend that money somewhere else like on reloading supplies that would be awesome. Here are a...

Toni, it's getting there. I'm in load development right now. So far I've seen some pretty awesome groups ranging from 1.5" to 5/8" - I need to get new rings and scope base because I don't even know what's on it. When I bought the original gun the local shop put the current rings and base on it...

New to the long range game. Started my build a few months ago. Here she is so far. *Rem 700 .300 Win Mag *Vortex Viper HS LR 6/24x50 *XLR Element Chassis *Harris Bipod This forum seems to be a great resource for everything long range and I look forward to soaking up everyone's knowledge!

Okay, thank you for the resources!

That's great to know. I am working on a 300 win mag load for long range precision out to 1000 yards. I am using the Hornady A-Max 208GR Bullets. The powder I'm using is Winchester 780 Supreme.

I understand that it is extremely recommended to "work" up loads when reloading. I am new to reloading and just want to see if anyone can clarify what "working up" would be defined as? Would I take the low average of multiple sources of a load and then back that off 2 grains, 5 grains...

So I just mounted my new Vortex Viper HS LR and took it out to zero it. Unfortunately for me, it was super windy, but anyway I have a question with how far the vertical turret should be raised (twisted up) when zeroing for 100 yards? I had to raise mine a full revolution or more from the...

I want to build a long range rifle that I will use for both target shooting and hunting of deer, elk, etc. I would like to build off the Remington 700 model and drop it into a Whiskey 3 chassis. What are your opinions of the 7mm Rem Mag vs. the .300 Win Mag? Also, could anyone point...

I do a lot of hunting. Recently I shot a Desert Bighorn sheep. I used a Gunwerks rifle that used a 6.5x.284 Norma round and it was awesome. I shot my sheep from 450yrds away and it was dead immediately. I'm not looking to hunt animals at a 1000 yards, but I want a gun that is capable of doing...
