    3-9x scope for my 8 year old (under $300)

    Doug, can you lend any insight on why Sightron has decided NOT to put ExacTrac in the S1 lineup? That, and if not ExacTrac, then what IS the system?

    Best scope rings/mount for Anschutz 54?

    The very most precision are Kelbly. You'd expect that, out of a Benchrest company. Call them, explain the rifle, and when you get the rings, don't be surprised if a little oil helps to get them onto the action rails. I have the same rifle. Mine has worn a set of 30mm Kelbly for about 10 years...

    Coyote rifle help

    Ha! I will agree with that. As I've said sometimes, an SMK is a GameKing or BlitzKing, if it's going fast enough! The closest one I have shot was something around 15 feet. I'd put myself right on an open berm they travel, lying in the same place as a tuft of beans left from spilling filling...

    3-9x scope for my 8 year old (under $300)

    Who is Cyclops? If you two are referring to me, I'll just address that I hate lots of things as much as scopes that don't work. If you aren't referring to me, well, I'll talk anyway. I have killed multiple brands of scopes, had friends and colleagues that have also killed multiple scopes...

    3-9x scope for my 8 year old (under $300)

    Nothing in the lower tier Vortex lines is worth having, if you want your shots to go where you point, without worrying if the scope is busted. They are budget, and that's fine, but they are apparently CHEAP, and that is not fine. Young shooters have a lot to worry about--as do you--without...

    Coyote rifle help

    OP: consider this advice. --Most coyote hunting never involves more than 2-3 shots in rapid succession. --Most coyote hunting is done in moderate to low temperatures. --You really only NEED about a 3/4 minute rifle, as long as the groups are round, to make hits. --If you DO fire 1,000...
