    Rifle Scopes Bushnell ERS at max vs. XRS at 21

    Trying to decide between the two. Want maximum usable magnification. Have heard varying opinions on XRS at 30. Wondering if the ERS is similarly compromised at its max such that I could use the XRS to beyond 21x and get a better image. Worried about how visible the reticle subtensions will...

    Rifle Scopes Hunting Scope: Zeiss HD 5 vs Leica ER.

    The Leica is light and bright. Only downside for me were the limits on available reticles. I'm waiting for them to expand their line, but not too likely to happen anytime soon ;(

    Thanks Randy (Hateca)! 260 Rem

    Re: Thanks Randy (Hateca)! 260 Rem Barrel indicates 260 Rem Match. Does that mean the chamber is set up for a specific bullet type or is it a tight chamber? Just wondering since you mentioned this rifle was built with the intent of reloading. Thanks.

    260 lapua neck sizer bushing recommendations

    Re: 260 lapua neck sizer bushing recommendations Thanks for all the posts. More are welcome to see how consistent they are. I may use good old RP later, but right now since lapua brass is on the way I will gladly wait for your info shep77, or anyone else using lapua. I'm assuming lapua is a...

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell elev. knob adjustment post

    Re: Bushnell elev. knob adjustment post Thanks BobD. But when I replaced my turret cap the zero didn't line up with the vertical line, it was slightly to one side. It lined up perfectly before I removed it to set my 200 yd zero. This is what I remember happening to someone else and there...

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell elev. knob adjustment post

    Looking for the post that described how to get the elevation knob 'zero' to line back up with the hash mark below it after the knob was removed. I tried several searches and couldn't come up with it. I remember the original poster contacted Bushnell and got directions from them and this fixed...

    Gunsmithing bolt firing pin cocking tuning?

    Re: bolt firing pin cocking tuning? Thanks for the advice everyone. I'm not 100 percent certain it was the spring, but that was my guess. I will definitely try the grease instead of oil, after I figure out where I can get some polishing compound and a buffing wheel of some sort. I assume I...

    Gunsmithing bolt firing pin cocking tuning?

    I recently "upgraded" my Rem 700 bolt to a heavy firing pin spring. After several cycles of cocking, opening of the bolt became very difficult. Finally it wouldn't move and I had to use a soft hammer to get the bolt to cycle open. I finally figured out that the surface of the bolt that the...

    Gunsmithing pinning a scope rail

    Re: pinning a scope rail I don't have the skills or equipment (that's in part why I didn't really know). I could see how if you screwed in a rail it would be easy to cut a hole through the rail and into the receiver top. I wouldn't plan on changing it, but was just wondering if for some...

    Gunsmithing pinning a scope rail

    Is it easy to add pins to a scope rail? Once the pins are put in, is it difficult to cut another rail to fit those pins? Thanks. Rich

    Wish they would make a Remington 5R in .260

    Re: Wish they would make a Remington 5R in .260 Wasn't the original 5r produced because a distributor asked Remington for it? I don't think it was listed in any Remington catalogue at the time. So, I assume if some big distributor did the same for another caliber, the 260 and others are a...

    Gunsmithing hs precision swivel stud screws

    The wood screw type of swivel stud pulled out of my HS Precision stock. Beneath the hole into the fiberglass they are threaded for machine screws into the aluminum bedding block, however, mine are threaded for 10-24 screws. I called HS and they said their older stocks were like this and now...
